After denouncing the Trump administration for banning travel from China in 2020, during the early days of the pandemic, on Monday, CNN’s New Day actually promoted the notion of somehow imposing a travel ban on the state of Florida over a recent rise in COVID cases there. Without a sense of irony, the show hyped the notion that travel from the Sunshine State would have already been banned if it were a foreign country.“Now, one out of every five people hospitalized in this country is in Florida right now....One Florida doctor says children’s hospitals in the state are overwhelmed while Republican Governor Ron DeSantis resists calls to require masks

Who are they? Have not watched cable for nine years and miss nothing.

Of course the tyrants at CNN would say that. Florida is Trump's home state. This has nothing to do with science and medicine, and everything to do with politics and punishing Trump supporters. Been down in Florida nearly two years. Haven't had a single sick day. Never could say that when I lived in New York. By all means, enact a travel ban. I'll be happy to stay in Florida.

The White House is pressuring OPEC and its allies to boost oil production in a bid to tackle rising gasoline prices — despite imposing tighter restrictions on US oil companies last year.Biden’s National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan issued a statement on Wednesday urging OPEC — the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries — to move faster to restore global supply of gasoline to pre-pandemic levels.“Higher gasoline costs, if left unchecked, risk harming the ongoing global recovery. The price of crude oil has been higher than it was at the end of 2019, before the onset of the pandemic,” Sullivan said.

A House committee investigating former President Trump's finances is entitled to some but not all of his tax records, a federal judge ruled on Wednesday, delivering a blow to his efforts to keep them private.It represents the latest twist in a complex web of court cases in a years long battle to force Trump to release his tax returns. U.S. District Court Judge Amit Mehta approved a House Oversight and Government Reform Committee subpoena obliging Trump's accountants Mazars to hand over documents from 2017 to 2018. But he turned down most of the panel’s request for information dating back to 2011.

Repurposed Covid funds are insufficient to fill gaps, and “Covid funds” were funds created out of thin air in any event so claiming it pays for itself with fake money, is just more mafia-style creative accounting.

The White House on Wednesday called on OPEC and its allies to boost oil production as gas prices continue to climb, threatening the nation’s economic recovery. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said in a statement the administration has spoken with OPEC members urging the group to increase production. OPEC, which stands for the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, reached an agreement last month with its non-OPEC allies, known as OPEC+, to increase oil production by 400,000 barrels per day. But Mr. Sullivan said that isn’t enough to bolster the oil supply. “While OPEC+ recently agreed to production increases, these increases will not fully offset previous production cuts

Cramer claimed he did not know the name of the officer, nor did he believe the public had any right to know that officer’s name because he had not been found guilty of any wrongdoing. Such pandering to the ruling class and its railroaded investigation is embarrassing enough, as the available evidence (to say nothing of the evidence that the government refuses to release) indicates that the officer recklessly—
