CNN chief White House correspondent Jim Acosta reacted to chants of “CNN sucks” from rallygoers in Sanford, FL at President Donald Trump’s rally Monday during the broadcast of “The Situation Room.” Acosta took a shot at his network’s critics by saying contracting COVID-19 would also “suck.” Acosta said, “After this rally in Florida tonight, the president heads off to Pennsylvania for another rally tomorrow later on in the week, Iowa and North Carolina, Pennsylvania is a critical battleground state. Iowa and North Carolina are really states that should be in the bag for President Trump.” “That’s an indication as to...

New photos released by the White House on Saturday appear to show President Donald Trump working from the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, where he has been since Friday. The President’s physician, Navy Cmdr. Dr. Sean Conley, stated earlier on Saturday that Trump had “made substantial progress since diagnosis.” In one of the photos, Trump is sitting at the same desk from which he delivered a video message earlier in the day, in which he said that he feels “much better now.” His daughter Ivanka praised her father for his hard work: LinkBut the left didn’t...

President Trump announced early Friday that both he and the First Lady Melania Trump tested positive for COVID-19 and will quarantine at the White House. “Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19,” the president tweeted. “We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately.” He added: “We will get through this TOGETHER!” Melania Trump posted, “As too many Americans have done this year, @potus & I are quarantining at home after testing positive for COVID-19.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said in a panel on Thursday that the U.S. should be ready to “hunker down” in its fight against the coronavirus and indicated that the fall and winter will not be easy. “We’ve been through this before,” he told a panel of doctors from Harvard Medical School, according to the Hill. “Don’t ever, ever underestimate the potential of the pandemic. And don’t try to look at the rosy side of things.” The Associated Press reported that winter is ending in the Southern Hemisphere and countries noted...

In a 2015 speech, Bill Gates warned that the greatest risk to humanity was not nuclear war but an infectious virus that could threaten the lives of millions of people. That speech has resurfaced the start of the coronavirus pandemic with 25 million new views on YouTube — but not in the way that Mr. Gates probably intended. Anti-vaccinators, members of the group QAnon and right-wing pundits have instead seized on the video as evidence that one of the world’s richest men planned to use a pandemic to wrest control of the global health system. During his interview with the...

It's time (beyond time, actually) for Trump to be bold and green light the country getting back to work. That will put huge pressure on the cities, counties and states that did their own lockdown. The unemployment and suffering are going to be epic as it is. The time to end this is NOW. This virus is no different than anything else that has come our way and we never shut the government down in the past. The idiot talking heads like Fauci, have been WRONG, just like the Imperial College modelling. All agenda driven. Also, I think cuomo is...
