    Trump appoints new members to 'patriotic education' commission

    excerpt:

    "President Trump appointed new members to the 1776 Commission on Friday in a final effort to bolster the “patriotic education” group in the closing days of his administration.

    The White House said in a press release that Larry Arnn, a longtime Trump ally and president of the conservative Hillsdale College, will chair the panel. Carol Swain, a former law professor at Vanderbilt University and a conservative television analyst, will serve as vice chair.

    Among the other high-profile members of the panel are conservative activist Charlie Kirk, Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant (R) and Brooke Rollins, the president’s domestic policy adviser.

    The appointments are for two years, though it’s unclear if the commission will ever meet once President-elect Joe Biden takes office next month."

    Trump fights for a job that he's not doing as coronavirus rages
    Analysis by Maeve Reston, CNN

    Trump fights for a job that he's not doing as coronavirus rages - CNNPolitics

    excerpt:

    "When the history of the pandemic is written, one of the great mysteries will be what President Donald Trump was doing in the waning days of his presidency as the number of Covid-19 deaths in the US soared past 3,000 each day, the virus spread unchecked and Congress dithered over the details of an emergency relief package that could be the difference between people being able to eat and being forced to sleep on the streets this holiday season.

    Trump ran for president pretending he was the consummate dealmaker, the chief executive who could make things happen with a snap of his fingers. He will go down in history as a president who worsened the grief and tragedy of the most consequential pandemic in 100 years by being contemptuous of masks and the safety precautions designed by his own administration -- a man incapable of empathy, who chose to remain cocooned in his White House bubble at a time when leadership would have mattered."

    Trump fights for a job that he's not doing as coronavirus rages - CNNPolitics

    excerpt:

    "In a public show of confidence about the vaccine from Pfizer and BioNTech, Vice President Mike Pence and second lady Karen Pence will publicly receive the vaccine Friday along with Surgeon General Jerome Adams. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell also said they will receive the vaccine in the coming days.

    The President, who contracted coronavirus in early October, won't get the vaccine until it's recommended by the White House medical team, a White House official told CNN.

    But as the nation plunges deeper into this critical fight against Covid, he continues to be missing in action, content
    to let the gears of government function without him."

    Trump is upset about the Cleveland Indians changing its name.


    Trump remains silent on massive Russian cyberattack — and almost everything else except his own election

    excerpt:

    "President Trump has tweeted or retweeted 96 messages so far this week. The vast majority of them were attacks on the election, with baseless allegations of voter fraud and false claims that he won. Interspersed were a few updates on the U.S. coronavirus vaccine rollout, an analysis of Fox News ratings, a complaint about the decision by the Cleveland Indians to drop their controversial team name and the announcement of Attorney General William Barr’s resignation.

    Not once has the president mentioned the massive cyberattack that U.S. officials suspect was carried out by Russian hackers — one that the nation’s cybersecurity agency warned was a “grave” threat to government and private networks."

    Trump is fundraising off Georgia runoffs, but his PAC is spending none of it on the candidates

    excerpt;

    "Over the past few weeks, President Donald Trump has been imploring his supporters to donate to the "Georgia Election Fund" to support Republicans in the two upcoming Georgia Senate runoffs. The plea has been part of Trump's massive post-election fundraising effort, much of which has been going to Trump's new political action committee, Save America.

    But none of the funds the president has brought into his new PAC appear to have gone to actually help the Republican Senate runoff campaigns, ad placement data and campaign disclosure records show."

    Tuberville is a retired football coach and now U.S. Senator-elect from Alabama. He was promoted by Trump in the 2020 election.

    He has become known for making fumbling remarks about the workings of the U.S. government and history.


    Tommy Tuberville - Wikipedia

    excerpt:

    "On November 13, 2020, Tuberville wrongly stated in an interview with the Alabama Daily News that the European theater of World War II was fought to stop socialism and that the three branches of the US federal government are the House, the Senate, and executive, garnering him considerable negative attention and criticism. He has also said that he was looking forward to raising money from his Senate office, a violation of federal law."

    Before vaccines became available, Trump's supporters were denying that the coronavirus deaths would be as bad as objective predictions were indicating.

    Now that the predictions have been accurate and Trump is on his way out of office, some of Trump's faithful are saying the deaths are going to be much worse than the predictions, even with the now available vaccines (that they credit to Trump) that they previously touted would stop the coronavirus that they had said affects just about no one.

    Oh yeah, show me these objective accurate predictions


    It was 1.1 million with full restrictions, 2.2 million if nothing done by August 1st 2020 back on March 10th

    That was the modelling that brought about worldwide lockdowns in the first place
