Tucker zeroes in on the MSNBC corral, whose stable of Democrat sycophants can be relied on for a completely spurious version of reality. Lawrence O’Donnell —does he really mean what he says? Could he possibly be that stupid or corrupt?—leads the charge of the channel’s presstitute brigade.

What are the symptoms of the new coronavirus?
22 minutes readUMAIR IRFAN—So you’re not feeling well, and you’re afraid you might be infected with the new coronavirus disease, Covid-19. Given that the United States is now beginning to test widely for the disease, and more cases are popping up, that might be a reasonable suspicion. Health officials are ramping up the response measures, advising people over 60 to “stay at home as much as possible.”
