Apparently on a phone call with state Govs, Trump wants them to "open the schools soon". That's a bit too late there, Wet Mouth!

because the media will repeat it endlessly just like Hillary's emails

multiple people have corroborated Reade's story, it aint just Trump. It strains credulity that she just went around to all her family and neighbors lying about a sexual assault just in case she needed to bring it up 25 years later

The only weird thing at this point is that we aren't hearing other women tell "Joe Biden straight up groped my genitals" stories.

Lots of him being too touchy, but I would have expected more similar stories at this point.

This isn't to denigrate Reade in any way, I'm literally surprised there hasn't been another of similar credibility and severity.

We don't mention it enough that Trump is STILL doing the diva "bump the press conference start back" poo poo like he's late-80s/early 90s Axl Rose and the media is STILL falling for it, at least NBC still is. Showing the empty podium for 30 straight minutes. And after all that waiting we all get "inject bleach!" hot takes. Stop covering these events, MSM.

to be fair you don't want to be the network failing to air the president live on camera advising the nation to inject bleach into their lungs

as far as i know, it's incredibly unclear whether Congress could even legally do this -- it would effectively require overriding the workers' comp and negligence law of every single state

like state legislatures can definitely pass legislation that says "employees are no longer allowed to sue businesses for their negligence in getting people infected with COVID" but it's a very different story for the Congress to try to do that

More like been involved in NY Democratic Party operations since the Clinton years so I'm very incredibly far from Conservative viewpoints, but I do know many on the other side of the political spectrum. I left the Democrats after the 2008 primaries and Obama was the presidential nominee because of what he and his team had done to sabotage local elections.

Poliogoiter is looking to extend corporate protections against suits by injured sla--employees. It's a continuation of the kind of thinking that brought us Right To Work and At Will employment and making it so all disputes need to be solved under arbitration instead of in court. It's presumably in the legislature's power to do that, since we're kinda of playing calvinball anyway, but I imagine if challenged by individual states they could probably fight it -- he's tying it to state aid for presumably that exact reason.

Federalism only seems to apply in one direction.

He needs this footage for when he's campaigning later this year to say "Look how well I did with the Economy! Give me your vote!"

This is only appealing to his Chuds, rich businessmen, and wackjobs. The typical adult and typical worker are sick of his poo poo and fully aware of his handling of the virus.
