This is good from Pelosi but Dems need to be much more aggressive with the astroturf campaigns and go after the media for amplifying those stories.

We start the day at 45,967 fatalities and 828k corona virus cases. Yesterday was the largest single recorded number of fatalities (over 2600 depending on your tracker).

These increases are happening because ‘presumed covid-19’ cases are finally being added to the counts, so we should expect to see a spike. Our daily average over the past 14 days is over 2200 per day. At 1500 per day, we will pass 60,000 fatalities in 9 days. We’re tracking higher than that, so it’s quite possible we hit that threshold in a week.

We are on track, at an average of 20k new cases per day, to reach 1 million total cases in 9 days. We are tracking higher (around 27k cases per day) so we may well hit that threshold before too long.

We really need to force the media to focus on these data and get them into the hospitals to show America what health professionals are dealing with. Only Rachel Maddow has done this to any meaningful degree.

Trump is;
The man with no plan
The Geator with no Heater
The Big Boss with no hot sauce
Apologies to Jerry.

This may also relate to who’s paying for the Wisconsin Republican legislators’ lawsuit against the Democratic administration health officials. And much other such nonsense.

They really need to implement that revised Hypocritic Oath to get in line with the Republican program.
