It’s been THREE months since the FDA said hydroxychloroquine was essentially useless against Covid. And Trump is STILL re-tweeting posts promoting HCQ as a treatment. (It’s no wonder 53% or Americans say they have zero confidence in Trump regarding the vaccine, pew new ABC poll.)

Asked if he accepts the US intelligence assessment that Russia is meddling to hurt Biden, Barr says: "There's some preliminary activity that suggests they might try again." THAT IS NOT WHAT US INTEL SAID. NOT "PRELIMINARY." NOT "MIGHT TRY." THEY SAID IT'S HAPPENING. RIGHT NOW.

NEW: Financial disclosures reveal USPS chief Louis DeJoy's business entanglements, which experts say are likely a major conflict of interest. He has a $30m stake in a USPS contractor, and he bought Amazon stock options after joining Trump's administration. https://t.co/L5tZmiuLoJ

The widely respected @MayoClinic has a policy requiring all visitors to wear a mask. (Smart!) They told Pence about this before his visit. He ignored it. They let him in anyway. Then they tweeted about telling Pence ahead of time. Then they deleted the tweet. This is not normal.

NEWS: Another Trump-backed conspiracy theory is dead. Judge Amy Berman Jackson just ruled that the jury foreperson in the Roger Stone case did not lie to the court and did not engage in misconduct during the trial. (Here is one example, of many times Trump made this false claim.) https://t.co/rvvAm408iR

There are FOUR lies here: (1) Only two of the prosecutors worked for Mueller. (2) Nothing was "exposed," their recommendation was literally a public filing. (3) Multiple courts ruled the Mueller investigation was legal. (4) The DOJ IG said the Russia probe was properly started. https://t.co/qfeWm81hMo

These quotes are from Trump, moments ago, but they mirror talking points from Erdogan, Putin and Assad. "The PKK... is probably worse at terror and more of a terrorist threat in many ways than ISIS." "Russia hates ISIS as much as the United States does." "Syria hates ISIS."

Trump says the Mueller investigation is "illegal" and "not allowed under the law." Here's the reality: Four federal judges have upheld Mueller's authorities and rejected claims that the investigation is unconstitutional. (2 judges appointed by Ds, 2 by GOP, including 1 by Trump.) https://t.co/eJGPyMvcY0

CNN can now confirm Rod Rosenstein did in fact give Trump the option to delay announcing the Russian hacking indictment until *after* the Helsinki summit. The White House told Rosenstein it was OK to announce before the summit, so he did. (from @Kevinliptakcnn and @LauraAJarrett)
