garetz:Which republican states are doing fine? ABC News has found that eight states -- Arizona, Arkansas, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Utah -- are seeing increasing hospitalization for COVID-19. In Arizona, average COVID-19 hospitalizations have risen 49% from May 26 to June 9, the second-biggest rise of any state during that time period. The seven-day rolling average for new COVID-19 infections in Arizona, which accounts for fluctuations in cases, was 1,006 cases per day, as of June 9. By contrast, New York, once the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak in the U.S. and which has nearly triple the population, has a 7-day average of 920 new cases. Hawaii's 7-day average for new cases is 3. https://abcnews.go.com/Health/ominous-sign-arizona-sees-bounce-back-covid-19/story?id=71154842&cid=clicksource_4380645_2_heads_hero_live_hero_related |

JOHNSONSOLAFUNMI:June 19, Juneteeth, is a day for the celebration of the end of slavery in the United States. Rather unfortunately, the Tulsa race massacre during the segregation era happened. Two observations: 1. Why would Trump choose the day June 19 (a day known as the end of slavery); 2 . Why choose a city Tulsa, Oklahoma where one of the worse, if not the worse race massacre took place in 1921, to hold the next rally |
General Milley says he was wrong to accompany Trump on church walk https://apnews.com/965136eb02efd639182a4ad15e06ea55?utm_campaign=SocialFlow&utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=AP Army Gen. Mark Milley, the nation’s top military officer, said Thursday he was wrong to accompany President Donald Trump on a walk through Lafayette Square that ended in a photo op at a church. He said his presence “created a perception of the military involved in domestic politics.” “I should not have been there,” the Joint Chiefs chairman said in remarks to a National Defense University commencement ceremony. Trump’s June 1 walk through the park to pose with a Bible at a church came after authorities used pepper spray and flash bangs to clear the park and streets of largely peaceful protesters demonstrating in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death in Minnesota in police custody. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMlj7M5uw4s

OLAADEGBU:What about Trump a serial adulterer, father to 5 children from 3 different women and philandering with paid-escorts better than Obama, a husband of one wife and father of two young ladies. By the way, Obama is not going to be on the ballot on November 3, why he is living rent free in your brain. The man has achieved what Trump and his entire generation can only dream about. |

Noel Francisco to step down as US solicitor general https://edition.cnn.com/2020/06/10/politics/noel-francisco-solicitor-general/index.html US Solicitor General Noel Francisco is expected to resign from his role as the government's top lawyer before the Supreme Court in the coming days, according to two sources familiar with the move. Francisco, 50, has led the solicitor general's office since September 2017 and been a forceful advocate for President Donald Trump. The White House is not expected to immediately name a permanent successor. Instead, the principal deputy solicitor general, Jeff Wall, will most likely be tapped as the acting solicitor general. Assistant Attorney General Brian Benczkowski of the Criminal Division also to resigned today. These sudden resignations are telling, considering that SG Francisco is representing Trump tax returns case at the Supreme Court, maybe he sees where the wind is blowing. |

DCatt:Trump’s approval rating drops to 39 percent in Gallup poll https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trumps-approval-rating-drops-to-39-percent-in-gallup-poll A new national poll by Gallup indicates that President Trump’s approval rating has slid amid unrest the past couple weeks in cities across the nation sparked by the death of George Floyd in police custody. The president’s approval rating – which stood at 49 percent a month ago in Gallup polling – dropped to 39 percent in their latest survey, which was released on Wednesday. Trump’s disapproval in the new poll stood at 57 percent, up 11 percentage points from early May. The president’s approval rating dipped below 40 percent in Gallup polling for the first time since early October. Trump’s approval rating on how he’s handling the economy also dipped below 50 percent in Gallup polling for the first time since November 2017. It currently stands at 47-51 percent approval/disapproval, down from 58-41 percent in February. |

27 percent of Americans in new poll see Trump as man of faith https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/501995-27-percent-of-americans-in-new-poll-see-trump-as-man-of-faith Slightly more than one-quarter of all Americans questioned in a new poll said they see President Trump as a man of faith. The Politico-Morning Consult poll released Wednesday morning found that 27 percent of respondents somewhat or strongly agree that Trump is religious, compared to 55 percent who somewhat or strongly disagree. Slightly more than a third of self-identified Christians see Trump as religious, pollsters noted, while half say he is not. Forty percent of evangelicals also agreed that Trump was a man of faith, while 33 percent disagreed. A total of 23 percent of Catholics and 18 percent of independents supported the statement that Trump is religious. Only majorities of ideological conservatives — 55 percent — and Republicans — 60 percent — said they see the president as religious. The poll was taken after the president visited two religious destinations in Washington, D.C., last week, a Catholic shrine and St. John’s Episcopal Church. At St. John’s, he posed for photos with a Bible after protesters were forcibly removed from Lafayette Square in front of the White House. “Even after nearly 3 in 4 voters saw coverage of President Trump’s photo op at St. John’s Episcopal Church last week, only about 1 in 4 believe he’s religious,” Morning Consult Vice President Tyler Sinclair said, according to Politico. That's 0.27 x 330,000,000 = 89.9million people To Trump's supporters, when was the last time Trump visited a place of worship? |

Trump campaign demands CNN apologize for poll that shows Biden leading https://edition.cnn.com/2020/06/10/politics/trump-campaign-cnn-poll/index.html Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump's campaign is demanding CNN retract and apologize for a recent poll that showed him well behind presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden. The demand, coming in the form of a cease and desist letter to CNN President Jeff Zucker, was immediately rejected by the network and they also told Trump where to go and what route to take. "We stand by our poll," said Matt Dornic, a CNN spokesman. The CNN poll conducted by SSRS and released on Monday shows Trump trailing the former vice president by 14 points, 55%-41%, among registered voters. It also finds the President's approval rating at 38% -- his worst mark since January 2019, and roughly on par with approval ratings for one-term Presidents Jimmy Carter and George H.W. Bush at this point in their reelection years -- and his disapproval rating at 57%.

Court-appointed attorney says judge should block DOJ move to drop Flynn case - DOJ committed 'gross abuse' in Flynn case https://www.foxnews.com/politics/counsel-appointed-by-flynn-judge-says-court-should-block-doj-move-to-drop-charges John Gleeson, the attorney and retired judge who was appointed by Judge Emmet Sullivan to submit a brief discussing whether federal prosecutors should be able to dismiss their case against Michael Flynn, insisted in a filing Wednesday that not only does Sullivan have the authority to reject the government’s request but he should do so. The Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure state that prosecutors may dismiss a case “with leave of court.” At issue in the Flynn case now is exactly what level of discretion this gives the court. Gleeson argues that it covers the current situation, claiming that federal prosecutors gave a pretext for why they want to drop the case. “Leave of court should not be granted when the explanations the Government puts forth are not credible as the real reasons for its dismissal of a criminal charge,” Gleeson wrote in his amicus curiae (“friend of the court”) brief, alleging that prosecutors’ reasoning is “riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact” and should not justify dismissal. |

garetz:Stephen Miller, is a well known white supremacist who actively promoted white supremacy ideas with hundreds of emails to white supremacist groups, is now expected to write a speech for Trump on race in America. Stephen Miller, who crafted immigration policy at the southern border, including separating families and caging children, the policy against a number of muslim countries from travelling to the US. https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2019/11/12/stephen-millers-affinity-white-nationalism-revealed-leaked-emails Stephen Miller’s Affinity for White Nationalism Revealed in Leaked Emails White House senior policy adviser Stephen Miller recommended an explicitly racist novel to Breitbart News at a time when the book was obscure outside white nationalist circles, a Hatewatch investigation revealed. Miller flagged “The Camp of the Saints,” a book popular among white nationalists and neo-Nazis, to the conservative website on Sept. 6, 2015, when he was an aide to then-Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama. More like a Nazi writing a speech on anti-black racism for Trump

Nuel4:Why are you so comfortable to make false, baseless statements, if you don't have anything good to say, it will be better to keep quiet. The Lincoln Project https://lincolnproject.us/ OUR MISSION Defeat President Trump and Trumpism at the ballot box. We do not undertake this task lightly nor from ideological preference. Our many policy differences with national Democrats remain. However, the priority for all patriotic Americans must be a shared fidelity to the Constitution and a commitment to defeat those candidates who have abandoned their constitutional oaths, regardless of party. Electing Democrats who support the Constitution over Republicans who do not is a worthy effort. Today, we find ourselves divided again – sectionalism in the country and factionalism in government has led to ever uglier examples of how our political system is failing. President Donald Trump and those who sign onto Trumpism are a clear and present danger to the Constitution and our Republic. Only defeating so polarizing a character as Trump will allow the country to heal its political and psychological wounds and allow for a new, better path forward for all Americans.

Trump has been lying about the size of the crowds that he says have come out to cheer him on. Finally, this week, in cities across America, from coast to coast, and small towns in between, crowds even larger than he ever imagined possible have gathered — not to cheer Trump on — but in solidarity with one message: It’s time for him to go. Donald Trump, the American people are speaking directly to you with a simple message: It’s time to start packing your bags. |

William Barr Flatly Contradicts Trump's Story That He Was In His Bunker For 'Inspection' President Donald Trump insisted last week that he was down in his protective White House bunker for a “tiny, little short period of time” for an “inspection.” Not true, Attorney General William Barr spilled Monday: The president was there for protection from protesters. “Things were so bad that the Secret Service recommended the president go down to the bunker,” Barr told Bret Baier on Fox News. Barr revealed the news angrily, insisting that the president was in danger. “We can’t have that in our country,” he added, apparently forgetting he had just contradicted his boss.
