Ill say it again, they like this cognitive test narrative out there right now. It reminds me when they fought his walk through the park thought his walk through the park on june 1st was iconic. Im not sure they have the best political acumen at this point. Maybe not. But before we get into polls that suggest americans dont think the fact that the president can identify an elephant is the most convincing thing. Well a lot of polls in a minute, but youre actually youve written a story about the president s obsession with this cognitive test thats meant for alzheimers patients. The president , about a month back started talking to advisers about this cognitive test he took at walter reed. Of course, the Trump Campaign has been trying for a while now to paint joe biden as having lost a step. It was not proving effective, as evidenced by the deficit in the polls that you just mentioned. But the president thought he could amplify this argument. He was talking to aides on air force one and st

Good morning and welcome to a. M. Joy. Im tiffany cross. Now we all know that donald trump has a thing for dictators and each time he praised these leaders, men who he has called good friends, trump exposed and apparent autocratic envy that foreshadowed what we are seeing right now in portland, oregon where on friday thousands of protesters including the wall of moms and a wall of veterans standing in solidarity for black lives matter were met with federal agents who deployed tear gas to disperse the crowds. Federal officers wearing military style camouflage and helmets have been patrolling portland with batons and tear gas driving around an unmarked vehicles sweeping up and detaining protesters in a way that oregons own attorney general says resembles abductions.

More. Hi. U. S. Congressman and civil rights hero john lewis is being honored in his hometown of troy, alabama. Institutionallized racism and champion for the disenfranchised. He was fearless because with god, he was chosen. He helped others, he often told us if you see something wrong, do something. We heard from his siblings who knew him as robert, and leaders here in alabama of the man who would show up to the members of his familys classrooms when they were kid as a surprise guest and no matter how sick he felt at the end, was asking how everyone else was.

One is the greatest Public Health emergency in a century, and the other threatens the health of our democracy. As President Trump continues his dangerous and delusional fight to overturn the results of a free and fair election. Were going to have much more on that emergency in a few minutes but we begin with the Public Health emergency. An Fda Advisory Committee is holding a meeting to decide whether to recommend the authorization of Pfizers Covid vaccine on an emergency basis. If the panel gives the green light, the fda could announce that emergency use authorization as early as tomorrow. And while help is hopefully on the way, the vaccine is sadly too late for far too many people. Coronavirus has killed more than 290,000 americans, including more than 3,000 people yesterday. 3,000. This number shatters the previous single day coronavirus death toll. And it now makes it t
