Billionaire Tom Steyer drops out of 2020 presidential race after Biden wins South Carolina primary

Image
Tom Steyer , the California activist billionaire who has largely been a nonfactor in the Democratic primary campaign, dropped out of the race on Saturday night. Steyer's departure came after a disappointing finish in the South Carolina Democratic primary. With 70 percent of the vote in, Steyer had just 11.5 percent of the vote — despite spending millions of dollars on campaigning there. "There’s no question today that this campaign, we were disappointed with where we came out," Steyer told supporters in Columbia, S.C. "But I said if I didn’t see a path to winning that I'd suspend my campaign, and honestly I can't see a path where I can win the presidency." Steyer promised to remain involved in political issues across the country and said any one of the Democratic candidates for president would be better than President Trump. He also took a shot at Sen. Lindsey Graham, S.C., who represents South Carolina in the U.S. Senate. "Every De...

President Donald Trump calls coronavirus fear the Dems' 'new hoax' as more cases are confirmed

Image
At a rally in South Carolina Friday night, Trump accused his Democratic critics of "politicizing" the  coronavirus  outbreak and dismissed the criticism about his handling of the virus as “their new hoax” and insisted “we are totally prepared.” Meanwhile, the House held a bipartisan briefing with health officials Friday morning, leaving Democrats questioning whether Trump has a handle on the response. Democratic Rep.  Adam Schiff , who led the impeachment fight, said Friday he has "profound concerns" about  Trump 's response to the  coronavirus  and cast doubt on whether the White House is telling the truth to the American public about the global outbreak. "The president and vice president don’t inspire confidence," Schiff told Fox News as he left a coronavirus briefing at the Capitol Friday morning. "And because the president has made so many false statements about so many things, you can't really rely on the White House." Sch...

President Donald Trump's coronavirus travel restrictions: What you need to know

Image
Trump called for calm on Saturday and tried to reassure the nation that the threat was under control. "There's no reason to panic at all. This is something that is being handled professionally," he said. There are 22 patients in the United States who have coronavirus, Trump said. One medically high-risk patient passed away overnight, but the remaining patients are at varying levels of recovery and were all allowed to return home. "Unfortunately, one person passed away overnight," the president said. “She was a wonderful woman, a medically high-risk patient in her late 50s. Four others are very ill. Thankfully 15 are either recovered fully or they're well on their way to recovery. And in all cases, they've been let go in their home." The virus is thought to have contributed to the volatility experienced by the stock market this week after the Dow plunged more than 3,500 points -- the worst decline since the 2008 global financial crisis...

Bombshell : Donald Trump Jr says Democrats hoping for coronavirus disaster is 'new level of sickness'

Image
Rep. David Cicilline on Mick Mulvaney: "The idea that the chief of staff to the President of the United States would dismiss this very serious public health crisis and suggest to people that it's really an effort to bring down the President is absurd and dangerous." This morning Donald Trump Jr. went on Fox and Friends and blasted Democrats for hoping the Coronavirus comes here and kills millions of people so that it can politically damage Trump enough to make him lose in November: Brian Kilmeade : And so now we're getting to sprint towards November for -- to -- to see if your dad can get four more years. Are you surprised the way they've been handling the coronavirus situation, meaning Democrats? Don Jr.:  Not at all. I mean, we've seen -- like you said, we've seen this play out for four years. Anything that they can use to try to hurt Trump, they will. Anything he does in a positive sense, like you heard from the reporter that was just suspend...

The Morning Joe panel continues its discussion on Elizabeth Warren tries to paint Bloomberg as a racist as Super Tuesday approaches

Image
Sen. Elizabeth Warren attacked Bloomberg over allegations, reported by The  Washington Post , that Bloomberg had told a saleswoman to "kill it" after he found out that she was pregnant and then complained about the number of pregnant women at his company. The Post later corroborated the woman's claim, which Bloomberg has denied, with another Bloomberg employee who says he witnessed the exchange, for which the woman sued Bloomberg in federal court. See Also:   CNN has just published the audio of the tense conversation between Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren after yesterday's debate That, however, did not stop Matthews from questioning Warren on whether she was sure of the story six times in a span of just over one minute during a post-debate interview. Chris Matthews asks Elizabeth Warren why she believes a female employee who sued Mike Bloomberg for telling her "kill it" when she was pregnant over Bloomberg. "You believe ...

The View co-host Meghan McCain says Steyer should drop out: ‘I hate that guy — he should drop the hell out’

Image
Meghan McCain  called on billionaire activist  Tom Steyer  to "drop the hell out" of the 2020 race for the Democratic nomination, declaring "I hate that guy."  McCain, the co-host of "The View," said on the program that Steyer was taking support away from former Vice President  Joe Biden  in South Carolina, and he should exit the race. “He’s really hurting Biden in South Carolina,” McCain said. “So, he’s making a dent. And he should drop the hell out. I hate that guy.” Biden still leads in the RealClearPolitics index of polls with 26.8 percent support in the Palmetto State, but Sen.  Bernie Sanders  (I-Vt.) has been closing fast and trails by only 5 points in the aggregate after being more than 20 points down in January.  Steyer is third in the index of South Carolina polls with 14.7 percent support despite not finishing higher than fifth in any of the first three contests in Iowa, New Hampshire and Nevada.  ...

"The View" co-hosts defend Bloomberg over racial comments by pointing to Trump

Image
Whoopi Goldberg  and  Joy Behar  attempted to defend former New York City Mayor and Democratic presidential candidate  Michael Bloomberg  by pointing to past statements from President Trump. During Tuesday's show, Goldberg said she couldn't get upset about Bloomberg's or other candidates' comments until Trump apologizes for what he said on the infamous "Access Hollywood" tape. "Everybody has stepped in it," she said, referring to Trump's and Bloomberg's previous statements. "And so, I guess I can't get freaked out until somebody apologizes for the [grab them by the p---y comment]," she said, as ABC bleeped her words. "Once you apologize for that, then I'll get mad about everything else, but I want everybody to stop eating each other," Goldberg added, before suggesting the reaction to Bloomberg was excessive. During a PBS interview in 2011, Bloomberg cited an "enormous cohort of black and Latino ma...

Hướng dẫn giải một số dạng bài tập Ankan của trường Tây Thạnh

a. Khi cracking hoàn toàn một thể tích ankan X thu được ba thể tích hỗn hợp khí Y (các thể tích đo ở cùng điều kiện nhiệt độ áp suất); tỉ khối hơi của Y so với hidro là 12. CTPT của X là: A. C 6 H 14       B. C 3 H 8        C. C 4 H 10       D. C 5 H 12 Giải: ü   Từ 1 V cho ra 3 V (cùng điều kiện)=>từ 1 chất cho ra 3 chất. Như vậy chất X phải có từ 5Cacbon trở lên loại được B,C. ü   Tỉ khối hơi của Y so với hidro là 12 => M Y =24 =>M X = 3M y =72 (C 5 H 12 – Đáp án D) b.
