In a record low for access journalism, the New York Times implies that "some" experts DON'T BELIEVE INJECTING DISINFECTANTS IS DANGEROUS. Dear sweet Baby Jesus. And CNN follows in their footsteps:
At a White House briefing, President Trump theorized — dangerously, in the view of some experts — about the powers of sunlight, ultraviolet light and household disinfectants to kill the coronavirus https://t.co/cm6fyxqQ0O

On Zoom, I was telling a MAGA how *Biden* suggested injecting disinfectant into our bodies & how bummed I was he would say that.
He went on to say how Biden is an idiot w dementia.
Then I went in for the kill & said it was trump who actually said it! It was glorious! 💅🏼— Shelly Splainin’ (@sheLLbeLL_xo) April 24, 2020

UV light? Injecting disinfectant?
Here’s an idea, Mr. President: more tests. Now. And protective equipment for actual medical professionals. https://t.co/Zv4Mfs2Z4a— Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) April 24, 2020

If I were a liberal billionaire I would buy up ad time in every state where there is a Republican Senate incumbent running for reelection and remind viewers that they could have removed this president, chose not to, and these are the consequences.

Three nurses showed up to counter-protest the Arizona “liberate” rally.
They stood silently.
And the “liberate” crowd didn’t leave them alone. They stood in their faces and berated them.
These women are heroes, and deserve so much better.
