150K people are dead and millions are out of work and Trump's priority for the COVID relief bill is $2 BILLION for a new FBI HQ in downtown DC because Trump doesn't want the FBI to move to the suburbs and have the old site redeveloped w/a hotel that will compete with his No joke

No joke
The hydroxychloroquine uproar tonight is an attempt to blame 150K deaths on clinicians that did not prescribe the drug. It's a game plan that will pushed over the next week on Fox, social media etc. It will be planned and orchestrated, be prepared for the lies.
This is correct, and of course, entirely depraved https://t.co/1oCGMUZ0ow— Rick Wilson (@TheRickWilson) July 28, 2020

REPORTER: Did you bring up the reports of Russia having bounties on US troops during your call with Putin last week? TRUMP: "We don't talk about what we discussed, but we had plenty of discussion."
He won't see this tweet because he blocked us like the coward he always is, so someone please let him know that he could at the very least tell the American people that he cares about our troops and, if reports are true, won't let bounties be placed on their heads. https://t.co/Aa6ofeKlYI— VoteVets (@votevets) July 27, 2020

Barr's opening statement is *very* touchy about how guilty he and Trump are with Russia. Wonder why?

(1/3) Mitch's #1 priority in his dangerously insufficient bill? Changing corporate liability laws to allow big business off the hook if they endanger workers. He's also fighting to ensure that unemployment insurance is slashed for the millions of Americans out of work.
(2/3) This bill has less than a third of funding we need for schools.— Amy McGrath (@AmyMcGrathKY) July 27, 2020
Not nearly enough funding for test-and-trace programs.
NOTHING for our states & cities to protect workers, their jobs and their pensions.
(3/3) There's things we can do to help schools open safely, but Mitch is putting the lives of children & teachers at risk while protecting his special interest friends.— Amy McGrath (@AmyMcGrathKY) July 27, 2020
Mitch's bill is woefully inadequate in every way and comes after MONTHS of delay and nearly 150,000 lives lost.

Last week, Trump said he'd been invited by the Yankees to throw out the first pitch on August 15. There was one problem: Trump had not actually been invited on that day by the Yankees. His announcement surprised both Yankees officials & White House staff.
