Covid update!
Far-left anti-American female-run outlet TheSkimm is claiming, without evidence, that over 200,000 people have died from COVID-19 in the US (citing a far-left Axios article claiming the number is from Johns Hopkins data).
Six months ago, the CDC estimated the death toll would only get this high in a worst-case scenario and that it could be lower with mitigation efforts.
But now, the virus has killed a higher share of the US population than any other wealthy country in the world. Its victims have been mostly elderly. Minority groups have also been disproportionately hit. And some health experts predict the death toll could double by 2021.
We all know that corrupt, greedy, sloppy, and politically motivated people have been over-eager to count both cases and deaths as being from Coronavirus.
As you know, they falsely accused President Trump of “lying” about the Chinese / Commie virus early on when he knew it was more deadly than the flu. The same people don’t accuse China or the UN’s corrupt WHO of lying. He said he wanted to play it down because he does not want to cause panic.
Now the lying MSM are freaking out because President Trump the virus "affects virtually nobody" – a comment that supposedly shocked families of the 200,000 supposed victims. Few liars mentioned this but he was referring to young people; Outkick reported 48,000 college students tested positive for Covid; two have been hospitalized. LATEST COLLEGE CAMPUS COVID STATISTICS SHOW NO DEATH, NEARLY ZERO HOSPITALIZATIONS
AND the president said the death toll was "a shame" – and rightly blamed China for not getting the virus under control in its early days. The virus has also become politicized (BY THE LEFT) and the Skimm claims it has led to misinformation and conspiracy theories (think: anti-maskers).

Supreme Court update
They’re holding a funeral for Ruth Bader Ginsburg and there was a strange display of masked adult males and females in suits all standing socially distanced down the steps of the Supreme Court, paying tribute to this evil woman.
TheSkimm) Sen. Mitt Romney (RINO-UT) — yesterday, he said he's on board with voting for OR AGAINST a new Supreme Court justice nominee (quote-unquote “based upon their qualifications” - CNN).
Since the passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, lawmakers have been debating when to fill her seat. Democrats argue it should be on the agenda of whoever wins the election. But Republicans are saying 'there's no time to wait.' Now, Romney (who doesn't always see eye-to-eye with President Trump) is siding with his party – all but guaranteeing that the Republican-led Senate will move forward with Trump's third appointment to the high court. The president's expected to announce his nominee in T-3 days. Here are the top contenders:

A little more about Supreme Court
Here are the top contenders:
Judge Amy Coney Barrett: The seventh circuit judge in Chicago is said to be the White House's top pick. A former clerk for the late Justice Antonin Scalia, she's shown support for expansive gun rights and abortion restrictions. She's already been through a tough confirmation fight for her current job. And in 2018, she was a finalist to replace Justice Anthony Kennedy – a spot that ultimately went to Brett Kavanaugh.
Judge Barbara Lagoa: The 11th circuit judge is from Miami and is the daughter of Cuban exiles. Some believe picking her could help Trump with Florida voters. Recently, she ruled in favor of a Florida law requiring former felons to pay debts before casting a ballot. But while Trump's called her "terrific," they haven't met in person.
Louisville looking for a riot
(TheSkimm) Yesterday, Louisville, KY’s mayor declared a state of emergency ahead of a potential decision in the Breonna Taylor case. Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron is expected to announce soon whether he'll charge the police officers who shot and killed Breonna Taylor – a 26-year-old [b]lack woman (CNN falsely called her an EMT this AM!) – following a "no-knock" search warrant at her apartment in March. The incident fueled nationwide protests against police brutality and racial injustice. It's not clear when a decision will be made. But Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer says he wants the city to be ready for any potential "civil unrest" – and to give space to protesters while keeping everyone safe.
Bubba’s not gone
Collage from Hake News, Hour 2 today.
(TheSkimm) This NASCAR team. Earlier this week, NBA legend Michael Jordan and NASCAR racer Denny Hamlin said they've formed a new racing team. Bubba Wallace – the only Black full-time driver in NASCAR – will be in the driver's seat.
Quick note re: Covid
(TheSkimm) Halloween. This year, the CDC's saying 'no' to trick-or-treating and indoor haunted houses and costume parties because of COVID-19. To stay safe (but also very, very scared), it OK'd haunted forests since they have lots of outdoor space. Bring your mask – and maybe a flashlight.
RINOs for Biden
Cindy McCain, the widow of longtime Republican Sen. John McCain, has endorsed Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden. As you may recall, Biden ran on a ticket against her husband in 2008. But the announcement isn't a total surprise (It’S NOT SURPRISE!). Cindy McCain appeared in a video at the Democratic National Convention last month about Biden's relationship with her late husband, whom President Trump often attacked. The move comes as Biden is trying to peel off independents and Republicans alienated by Trump's rhetoric and actions -- including in battleground states such as Arizona. In other news, the first presidential debate will focus on the pandemic, the nation's racial reckoning and the Supreme Court. It's set for Tuesday.
