Univision Guest Can’t Decide Whether to Bash Trump or Give Him Credit 

A funny thing happened on the way to bashing Trump at Univision´s afternoon coronavirus newscast. An interview with former Secretary of Treasury Rosario Marin badly backfired when she wandered off-script and actually validated Trump's decision to reopen the nation's economy.

Deadspin: Indifferent GOP, McConnell Reponsible For COVID Deaths

A Deadspin writer is accusing U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of urging the return of Major League Baseball merely to cover up the Republicans' responsibility for allowing thousands of Americans to die from the coronavirus.
