Post Office

True or False: The Trump Administration's Postmaster General is sabotaging mail-in voting

The advertisement by VoteVets here illustrates how many see recent actions taken by the Post Office. The Postmaster General was recently brought before Congress to testify about the choices made, which allegedly include removal of post boxes and mail-sorting machines, as well as elimination of overtime pay. These are said to have slowed mail delivery, resulting in many people, including many verans, not receiving their medications on time, and many worry that it will make mail-in voting harder, and even makes their votes not count as they may not arrive on time.

Arrest Via Unmarked Van

True or False: the distribution of PPE to states has been based on favoritism

The assumption seems to be that they are being handed over to FEMA for distribution to other parts of the country. As explained by Admiral Polowczyk on Thursday at the White House briefing) or whether they are being distributed to other parts of the country on a preferential basis. We simply don’t know.

True or False: "Obamagate" was completely lawful and non-political national security activity

CNN: "Senate Republicans releasing a list of Obama Administration officials who sought the names of Americans discussed in intelligence reports in the weeks before the President took office"

-- what was being discussed by intelligence officials in these reports? Why did the "Obama Administration" officials seek the names? Was this a completely normal action?  Were they aware of some criminal act and trying to stop it?

Press Secretary McEnany

True or False: White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany lied 15 minutes after pledging that she would always tell the truth

According to the Washington Post:

“I will never lie to you,” McEnany replied [to a question by a reporter]. “You have my word on that.”

Fifteen minutes later, she raised a subject no one had asked about and quickly offered an obviously false claim about it.

Trump apparently mocking reporter

True or False: Donald Trump mocked the disability of a reporter

In a campaign speech during the 2016 election, Donald Trump imitated a reporter who had expressed disagreement with Trump's interpretation of an article that he had written after September 11th, with flailing arms, and the media reported this as mocking his disability. Trump claimed that he did not know that the reporter was disabled. Was Trump mocking the disability or was he merely imitating someone who is "confused" because he was back-tracking on what he wrote, in Trump's mind?

True or False: President Trump recommend that people take disinfectant into their bodies to fight the coronavirus

BBC News:

During Thursday's White House coronavirus task force briefing, an official presented the results of US government research that indicated coronavirus appeared to weaken more quickly when exposed to sunlight and heat.

The study also showed bleach could kill the virus in saliva or respiratory fluids within five minutes and isopropyl alcohol could kill it even more quickly.

Biden and Trump

True or False: "Every major Democrat didn't take [coronavirus] very seriously until early March either"

Ben Shapiro has argued that Trump should not be blamed for not taking coronavirus seriously until early March, because major Democrats also did not.

But generalized "Trump didn't take this seriously enough!" stuff is ignoring the timeline, wherein every major Democrat didn't take it very seriously until early March either.
