Story 1 - CNN Condemns D-Day Soldiers For Lack Of Diversity

Trump tweeted out a photo of his task force. I guess it was all white males.
"We will continue to monitor the ongoing developments," the President said in his post. "We have the best experts anywhere in the world, and they are on top of it 24/7!"
CNN recently posted an Coronavirus task force another example of Trump administration's lack of diversity…
- "It's a statement that's as predictable as it is infuriating: President Donald Trump's administration lacks diversity… They communicate a "patronage network that everyone is operating under," as Eric Yellin, an associate professor of history and American studies at the University of Richmond, told The Washington Post last year, about a different set of photos. "Having that network be interracial is really important. But the visuals that have come to define the Trump administration say something else, too. They signal which people in a multi-racial, half-female country Trump values the opinions of: mostly white men who are mirror images of the President himself.

Story 2 - Uh-Oh: Sanders Campaign Texting 'Gulag For You' To People Who Aren't Voting For Bernie

Project Veritas (James O'Keefe) continues to release candid camera clips of Bernie state campaign staffers (latest video highlights four of them)
No Comment from the campaign
No corporate media is covering it
They're all still employed.

Adam Ford Recommendation: Go read the Gulag Archipelago by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.
