Journalists’ health put at risk by Trump team, charges White House Correspondents Association
Apparently eager to portray a country that’s definitively back on track, the White House on Friday effectively forced reporters to abandon the Trump administration’s own social-distancing guidance.
Chairs for correspondents, of late placed at a remove from one another in accordance with the widely recognized recommendation to stay 6 feet away from others to lower the risk of coronavirus contagion, were assembled in the Rose Garden in status quo ante fashion.
Why, asked the White House Correspondents Association, were reporters being asked to violate established best practices? A succinct answer from the White House:
‘It looks better.’
— Judd Deere, deputy press secretary
President Trump, at the podium, took note of the nearly shoulder-to-shoulder seating arrangement Friday as it were an organic occurrence, or perhaps based on epidemiological factors, saying: “I noticed you’re starting to get much closer together. Looks much better, I must say.”

It was probably too much to expect any reporter, let alone a majority, to show the tiniest amount of good sense and move their chairs 6 feet apart. Instead, their Association wrote a strongly worded memo which makes exactly no difference. The chairs stay where Trump wants, even though the chairs are very light and folding. Maybe at least one reporter should have thrown a chair at the Presidential podium?

The Legacy Media is huge supporters of the riots and arson.
None of the rioters are abiding any residual recommendations from a virus that nobody even thinks about anymore.

Maybe at least one reporter should have thrown a chair at the Presidential podium? That would have made some news worth watching -- to turn Trump's empty headed blathering into a wrestling match with reporters. Trump would run away and the video would be seen around the world of his fat dumb ass escaping back inside the building.

Maybe one of the Antifags got a degree in Journalism instead of Gender Studies like the rest of them do and will get a job at the Clinton News Network sometime in the next 4 years and can make that wet dream come true for you.

The coronavirus pandemic has produced “one of the greatest wealth transfers in history,” CNBC’s Jim Cramer said. "This is the first recession where big business … is coming through virtually unscathed, if not going for the gold,” he added.
The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 has recovered all of its losses from the coronavirus meltdown and set a new high on Thursday. Many investors are betting on a V-shaped economic recovery, Cramer said.
“I think we’re looking at a V-shaped recovery in the stock market, and that has almost nothing to do with a V-shaped recovery in the economy,” he said.

It needs to said, since most of you aren't wealthy, but the greatest wealth transfer in history is increasing the wealth of the wealthy and, related, increasing the National Debt by about 25% in only two months. If you are rich, you can't help but love what Trump has done for you, even if you don't love him.

You're not wealthy in real life either, so why don't you tell us about how much it sucks.

Pooled Testing for Covid-19
I think our fundamental problem is not a lack of good ideas. It’s that, outside of some isolated pockets of progress, our entire civilization no longer has the will (or ability? is there a difference?) to implement good ideas, or even really to try them. For anything new that requires coordination, today there are just too many stakeholders who need to be brought on board, too many risks that need further study. So I see Zeph, and anyone like him, as occupying a tragic position, a bit like that of an Aztec advocating the use of the wheel. “Sure,” the Aztec elders might calmly reply, “wheeled transport is obvious enough that we’ve all considered it, but a moment’s thought reveals why, in our actually existing empire, it would be reckless, costly, and of at most marginal benefit…”
