She’s awful: Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst seemed to embrace on Monday a thoroughly-discredited QAnon conspiracy theory about U.S. deaths from COVID-19 being a mere fraction of what has been reported.

SCOTUS rules on two Trump-related cases. Vance and Mazars: both 7-2 against Trump
Cases go back to the lower court, so the Trump tax returns issue will not get seen before the election, because it goes to the Grand Jury in Vance.

Still in a first wave doesn’t mean that like ramps, they can be both “long and steep”. And the lies keep coming. x I stopped counting a month ago, when Trump said for the 40th time that the 1918 flu pandemic, which killed his own grandfather, happened in 1917. Now he seems to think WW1…
Kudlow says we just have to “get used to” record COVID cases and deaths (as well as post-racism)
Also, Larry Ludlow says that the election of Obama proves there is no systemic racism, much like two-handing a glass of water and shuffling down 11o ramps is not a sign of deteriorating abilities. Executive decision on tonight's #DickAward goes to Larry Kudlow who doesn't give a fuck about people dying, and those who lose their…

Trump in Allentown: “if we didn’t do any testing, we would have very few cases”
Trump seems to have decided to stray even farther from message on COVID-19 and concentrate on all the diversions and distractions. He’s never really cared about tests and testing, he’s in complete denial about now 85,000 deaths, and will rely on disinformation even about the total number of COVID-19 cases.

Cases of the Mondays – GOP says nothing to see here, even if it's impeachable
The GOP is playing slow and tight with the truth as Monday in the Judiciary committee begins at 9am ET with more televised testimony.
