Biden and Trump: a Contrast in Coronavirus Patients

Biden and Trump: a Contrast in Coronavirus Patients

President Joe Biden sought to reassure the nation Thursday that he's OK and working hard as he grapples with a coronavirus case the White House said was basically inevitable. "Hey, folks, I guess you heard. This morning I tested positive for COVID," a maskless, business-suited president said in a video posted on social media. "I've been double vaccinated, double boosted, symptoms are mild, and I really appreciate your inquiries and concerns." He said he was "doing well, getting a lot of work done. ... In the meantime, keep the faith. It's going to be OK." The news that the 79-year-old president had tested positive for a potentially fatal illness might have been devastating less than two years ago. But fully vaccinated, experiencing just a runny nose, a dry cough ...
Putin’s New Ukraine Strategy Proves He Is Getting Desperate

Putin’s New Ukraine Strategy Proves He Is Getting Desperate

VINNYTSIA, Ukraine—Smoke and flames rose from the wreckage of burning buildings as the screams of the wounded and dying filled the air. Here was more evidence of President Vladimir Putin’s growing desperation. Another 24 people—three of them children—paid the ultimate price for the Kremlin’s tragic new strategy. The Russian Army was too weak, ill-disciplined, and under-cooked to make the sweeping gains the Kremlin expected when they launched this illegal war on Ukraine. With the army bogged down and making incremental gains in the eastern Donbas regions, but offering little threat to the rest of Ukraine, Putin has resorted to launching missile strikes against civilian centers all over the country.The most recent major attack came on Thursday, when a Russian submarine launched Kalibr pre...
‘We’re Losing’ but Moscow Will Never Admit It, Russian Soldier Says

‘We’re Losing’ but Moscow Will Never Admit It, Russian Soldier Says

As Russia openly announced its plan to seize more Ukrainian land on Wednesday, a Russian soldier was caught spilling to relatives back home that Vladimir Putin’s troops are “losing,” according to Ukrainian intelligence. Audio shared by Ukraine’s Security Service is said to capture an intercepted phone call between a soldier based in the Kharkiv region and a female relative outside Moscow. It was not immediately clear when the conversation took place, but the unnamed man’s complaints appear to echo those heard repeatedly from Russian troops throughout nearly five months of the war.“We’re losing now,” the purported soldier says, prompting an indignant response from his female relative, who replies, “Well it’s you guys who are losing there, but they are winning everywhere [else].” “That...
The Capitol Was Under Siege and Trump

The Capitol Was Under Siege and Trump

After giving his fiery speech to armed supporters at a park and telling them to march on Congress to keep him in power on Jan. 6, 2021, former President Donald Trump returned to the White House, sat in his private dining room, and watched Fox News for hours—repeatedly refusing to intervene. Instead, Trump continued to push forward his plan to use lawsuits and legislative delays to buy time in an obsessive attempt to overturn the 2020 election, calling his lawyer and pressuring senators to remain loyal to him. The Jan. 6 committee kicked off its long-awaited, prime-time hearing Thursday by laying out how Trump fully intended to lead a mob to the Capitol, how he angrily confronted U.S. Secret Service agents who stood in his way, and how he refused to do anything to stop the siege on th...
What to Know About the COVID-19 Pill Joe Biden Just Got

What to Know About the COVID-19 Pill Joe Biden Just Got

When the country learned on Thursday that President Joe Biden had tested positive for COVID-19, the White House assured the public that the commander-in-chief was being treated with a course of Paxlovid. The antiviral is manufactured by Pfizer and has been shown, at least during trials against previous strains of the coronavirus, to significantly lower a person’s chance of hospitalization or death from COVID-19. It has usually not been prescribed to everyone who contracts the virus, but targeted primarily at older patients or those at risk for serious illness—people with heart conditions, or ones undergoing chemotherapy, for example. At 79, Biden is the oldest president ever to occupy the Oval Office. He has been fully vaccinated and doubly boosted, and is experiencing “mild symptoms...
