‘Does he accept Rubles or Bitcoin?’: Internet hilariously lampoons Flynn after begging for cash for legal defense
Retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn started his own legal defense fund in wake of Vice President Mike Pence starting his own fund, while still maintaining he didn’t know anything about anything. Now Flynn is begging for money and the internet is heckling.
Lori and I are very grateful to my brother Joe and sister Barbara for creating a fund to help pay my legal defense costs. 1/2

Flynn has been caught in a series of connections to foreign investors and shady deals and he’s already begging for immunity. He’s not getting it, though, and he’s begging for money to help him mount a defense.
While the director of the Government Ethics Office has said that lobbyist money is acceptable to receive, Flynn has promised he won’t take money from foreign nationals.
Flynn defense fund says: "Any donations that are identified as originating with foreign nationals will be declined or refunded." https://t.co/1hbVy62WUT

What about #vetsagainstFlynn? I can't believe he has the balls to use his service to try to get money from true patriots.

Gee Mike, I'd love to help but I already donated to hurricane relief, to assist people in actual need from something they couldn't control.

I just don't understand, why is that necessary for an innocent man? A man with integrity, who's conducted himself with transparency? Hmmm

Can they retroactively give him a dishonarable discharge? He throws Lt. Gen. around while committing treasonous acts.

What? Is the money Flynn received from Russia and Turkey gone already?

So, they will just "wash" the donations sufficiently to say they "didn't know" the donation originated with a foreign national.

Flynn Sr and Traitor Tot could save themselves a lot of money by confessing and flipping on Trump. Find some honor. cc @mflynnJR

He could just tell the truth and not try to hide things from Mueller. That'll cut down on legal expenses.

Save money – confess, dish the dirt on Trump, say sorry you committed treason, and clap when everyone chants ' Lock him up' .

Don't give a fucking cent to Flynn. When he decided to help subvert our constitution, he lost the right to recite his service record.

Why aren't the Trumps or Kushners helping him? They think he's such a good man, not to mention that he committed treason to help DT win!

Trump’s much-hyped Walmart and CVS coronavirus testing centers have been a massive flop
During a press conference last month, President Donald Trump brought several corporate bigwigs with him to announce that major retailers Walmart, CVS, Walgreens, and Target would all be making their parking lots available to set up drive-through COVID-19 testing centers.
"The goal is for individuals to be able to drive up and be swabbed without having to leave your car," the president said.
It's been nearly three weeks since that announcement, however, and CNN reports that companies have only set up five of these testing centers in the United States so far -- and that none of them are available to the general public.

Trump ripped by former Ted Cruz aide for his ‘firehose of falsehoods’ as we ‘tally the sick and the dead’
In a column for the conservative Bulwark, a former speechwriter and aide to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) expressed her disgust with Donald Trump for his continuing lying about the seriousness of the coronavirus pandemic while at the same time bragging about the TV ratings for his daily press conferences.
According to Amanda Carpenter, who also doubles as a conservative commentator on CNN, she has had it with his "firehose of falsehoods' " and "avalanche of lies" while the country is reeling from a health crisis that has trapped almost 80 percent of the populace in their homes.

‘Fox News is eating her brain’: Columnist describes drastic measures to get her mom to take COVID-19 seriously
New York Times columnist Kara Swisher had an incredibly hard time getting her mother to take the threat of COVID-19 seriously -- and she says that Fox News is primarily to blame.
In her latest column, Swisher writes that her mother for the past few weeks largely kept going about her daily life as though there weren't a deadly pandemic raging across the country. Swisher became so concerned for her mother's safety that she frantically called and texted her to the point where her mother told her to knock it off.
