    For folks on the QAnon right, Trump's COVID diagnosis is a sign that he's under physical and spiritual attack from lefties, or that he's hunkering down while the mass arrests of "The Storm" sweep over the country. You know, there might be an easier explanation.

    Reading QAnon congressional candidate Angela Stanton-King's tweets and commenters may make you think "something ain't right" with our political culture

    BREAKING: The timeline problem the White House is facing is that according to Trump's 9PM FNC interview with Hannity, the White House waited *12 hours* to test him after it knew Hicks had COVID-19. That's unlikely—meaning Trump may have lied on FNC about if he had a deadly virus.

    The Democratic Party is so anti-Catholic that (checks notes) its top elected official is Catholic and it is fighting like hell to elect a Catholic president.

    2:53
    President Trump: "Anti-Catholic bigotry has absolutely no place in the United States of America -- it predominates in the Democrat Party."

    "What sets Trump apart, and makes this election so urgently important, is the viciousness of the man himself: his malice and well-documented mendacity, his callousness and incompetence, his total lack of scruples."

    A sharp editorial from the lay Catholic magazine , urging a vote for Biden because, the editors say, Trump is "the worst president in this country’s history and an existential threat to its future."

    NEW: Ivanka Trump likes to pose as a successful businesswoman. But in looking through her major projects—in Azerbaijan, Panama, and New York—one thing is clear: She's just as steeped in corruption, fraud, and money laundering concerns as her father.

    1) As someone who has spent the past four years covering the spread of white-nationalist violence in America, both at protests and in terrorist acts, the notion that these groups are “illusory” is not just absurd, it’s obscene. Thread follows.

    The House just passed its updated HEROES Act. But the Senate left town earlier today until Monday afternoon. First thing on the Senate’s agenda next week? JUDGES. McConnell has lined up votes on 5 more of Trump’s nominees to lifetime judgeships. That’s all McConnell cares about.

    TODAY >> I asked a Big Pharma CEO to justify why his company raised the price of a lifesaving cancer drug by over $500 *per pill* since it first hit the market. He couldn’t answer. This same CEO made $13 MILLION in 2017— including a $500,000 bonus for this price hike.

    If you're thinking, wow, how in the world did we get to the point where the POTUS is using the debate stage to incite a violent white supremacist group to take to the streets, and he still has the support of his evangelical base, you should read . There's a long history.
