Trump takes a dizzyingly tone-deaf victory lap for "only" 11 coronavirus deaths.

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

With approximately 100,000 CoronaVirus cases worldwide, and 3,280 deaths, the United States, because of quick action on closing our borders, has, as of now, only 129 cases (40 Americans brought in) and 11 deaths. We are working very hard to keep these numbers as low as possible!

Tulsi Gabbard's $50 Million Suit Against Google Is Dismissed

Tulsi Gabbard’s $50 Million Suit Against Google Is Dismissed

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/04/technology/google-tulsi-gabbard-lawsuit.html

SAN FRANCISCO — A federal judge on Wednesday dismissed a $50 million lawsuit filed by Representative Tulsi Gabbard, a Democratic presidential candidate, that accused Google of infringing on her free speech when it briefly suspended her advertising account last year.

The judge, Stephen V. Wilson of the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, granted Google’s motion to dismiss the lawsuit because the Gabbard campaign had failed to prove that the First Amendment clause that prohibits the government from curbing free speech applied to Google as a private company.

The Gabbard campaign’s lawsuit failed to establish “how Google’s regulation of its own platform is in any way equivalent to a governmental regulation of an election,” Judge Wilson wrote in his order.

Ms. Gabbard, a congressional representative from Hawaii, is still a candidate for the Democratic nomination but has failed to garner any significant support in the early votes or national polls. She did, however, win her first delegate on Tuesday, from American Samoa. Officials with the Gabbard campaign did not immediately respond to requests for comment Wednesday evening.

This is a direct & dangerous threat to the U.S. Supreme Court by Schumer. If a Republican did this, he or she would be arrested, or impeached. Serious action MUST be taken NOW!

Trump: Coronavirus testing is much more accurate & rapid because we undid an Obama decision

Trump on coronavirus testing: "The Obama administration made a decision on testing that turned out to be very detrimental to what we're doing & we undid that decision a few days ago so that testing can take place in a much more accurate & rapid fashion" (what's he talking about?)''

Trump's awake, trolling Sanders and Warren, and zero mention of Biden.

I'm not going to post the tweets...if you remember Bill Hader's "Stefan" from Saturday Night Live, that's the tone he's taking.

He's like a happy pig in the mud, rolling in it and tweeting out catty little gossip column-style crap.

Trump asks if "a solid flu vaccine" could "have an impact or much of an impact on Corona"

Holly Figueroa O'Reilly

@AynRandPaulRyan

Trump literally does not know how vaccines work.

"You take a solid flu vaccine, you don't think that could have an impact or much of an impact on Corona?"

Medical professionals: "No

Trump: "Therapies are sort of another word for cure," and Ivanka created 15,000,000 jobs

"Therapies are sort of another word for cure" -- Trump still hasn't figured out what a vaccine is

@atrupar

"She started out with 500,000 jobs, and she just broke 15 million" -- Trump once again suggests his daughter Ivanka was somehow responsible for the creation of 15,000,000 jobs, or more than twice the amount of total jobs created during his term

"We're BETTER than this moment, we're BETTER than this president, GET UP..."

...and let's TAKE BACK THIS COUNTRY."

Joe, live on MSNBC right now, just brought Beto O'Rourke and his wife onstage, Beto is speaking, crowd is going wild,

Whatever think Joe might have lost prior to this past weekend, he's found it again, and he's going feral on Trump.

I know that not everyone here shares my enthusiasm for Joe as the nominee, but I'm lit up like a Christmas tree tonight.
