Dallas County has become the 4th in Texas (along with Harris, Bexar & Hidalgo) to pass 1,000 Covid deaths.

In single counties? The whole state of Kentucky hasn’t hit this milestone yet. Probably will in the next day or two.

More on Dallas County...


Dallas County CLI also down to the lowest level of 2020.

I wonder what all the Trump supporters who kept repeating the president's "it's no worse than the flu" think now?

Actually, I don't wonder. Libbies were "triggered" which was always the point. The truth never was.

[Lyle Lanley III]

All along, I just figured the administration's response to this was based on Trump's incompetence. Turns out he knew all along and just didn't give a shit.

[NFFrog]

One thing I think you can be sure of: There will be no remorse expressed from either Trump or any of his supporters. I mean what's 10s or 100s of thousands of deaths mean when power is on the line? They would have died of something anyway. Says so on the death certificates (actually doesn't but what's another lie at this point?).
