Something tells me they are exaggerating every single little thing they can.

The Admiral noted that the report was confusing and done several weeks ago when the situation on the ground was different from what is happening now.

All that Kingly power and oversight and Military aggressiveness with it's own power and 50 separate States need to act individually due to our leaders choices. But Given Unity opportunities he also fails as wealthy businesses are helped for private profits. GOP Senate was blind

Morning_Joe It’s dems want throw granny off cliff. You made fun of Romney for that in 2012. Bloomberg as much as said for expensive treatment that patient should go home to family. Gov won’t pay. Where you living? The dems are the elitist. And now the boring elitist. They were fun once

Morning_Joe Isn’t practicing medicine without a license a criminal offense?

Fake news!

Serious question. Are you an American? Do you care about Americans? Based on the hate, vitriol and negativity you constantly puke 🤮 I wonder? My grammy used to say: “if you cant say something nice, say nothing at all” Instead all you do is puke 🤮 political hate. Shame on you

What are you doing to help out? Are you donating anything? Hunting down any price gougers and exposing them like good little reporters

FireTrump BelieveFauci

Hospitals are furloughing employees across the country. This is total and complete

So where was the Government Watchdog when Obama and Biden were Criminally Negligent for Not stockpiling medical supplies needed for Pandemics they were warned about their ENTIRE time in Office? They put the Nation at Extreme Risk as we all see at present!Must be held accountable.

When thousands and thousands of hospitals are sending staff home because normal procedures have been cancelled because their is zero virus cases.

And it's all Stumps and his minions fault. Shame on you all.

If any state needs medical equipment come get it in Dallas ... The Governor still thinks it’s a Democratic Hoax ... Dallas is wide open

Maybe if they were restocked after the last time they were used up.
