The Damage Report: April 17, 2020

Hosts: John IadarolaBrett Erlich   Guests: David Sirota
Donald Trump was caught copying Joe Biden's coronavirus homework (aka the plan to reopen the country) and he still failed. John Iadarola and Brett Erlich break it down on The Damage Report.

The administration envisions states or localities meeting those criteria each time they progress through three phases. It's not prescribing target dates for meeting each phase, and officials acknowledged restrictions could snap back if there's a resurgence in cases. Here's how the new guidelines envision easing social distancing restrictions Phase one: Restaurants, movie theaters, sporting venues, places of worship and gyms can reopen if they observe strict social distancing. Elective surgeries can resume when appropriate on an outpatient basis. Schools currently closed should remain shut and visits to senior living facilities and hospitals should be prohibited. Bars should remain closed. High-risk individuals should remain at home." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

Former Bernie Sanders staffer, David Sirota, breaks down the real story of the 2020 campaign with John Iadarola on The Damage Report.

I’ve been on seven underdog challenger campaigns in my life, and won a few of them — this is campaigning 101: you contrast, or you lose. And with Biden, the contrast was particularly stark. While Bernie was fighting to stop the Iraq War, Biden helped the GOP pass the Iraq War resolution and vote down Democratic amendments to that resolution. While Bernie was fighting to stop the bankruptcy bill, Biden helped the GOP pass the legislation that could now crush hundreds of thousands of Americans during the coronavirus recession. While Bernie and Paul Wellstone were pushing a bill to lower the price of prescription drugs and prevent profiteering off vaccines developed at taxpayer expense, Biden was helping Republicans kill the initiative. And as I told MSNBC, while Bernie was fighting to protect and expand Social Security, Biden was helping echo the Republican argument for cutting Social Security." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

One of those people, like me, who sobs at the smallest hint of emotional upheaval during a film? Surely, everyone has experienced this at some point. That moment when you're so engulfed in a film, and it suddenly turns dark or sad— maybe your favorite character's long lost love dies—and you feel that tightness in the back of your throat. You fumble in the dark for a napkin, but they're all covered in popcorn butter. And then it's too late: you're crying. While I don't cry in real life all that often (talk about #blessed), crying in movies is a regular occurrence for me. And not just during tearjerkers. I'm talking about crying during happy movies. Friendship movies. Kids movies. Romantic comedies." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

In an interview Thursday with K.T. McFarland, who served as deputy national security advisor under President Donald Trump, Dobbs floated the possibility that the coronavirus was created by China as a biological weapon. “If this turns out to be a biological weapon, K.T., if this happens to be a conscious and overt act on the part of the Chinese military — and we know that biological warfare is part of their military doctrine, a significant part, just as cyber warfare or any other — if this were to turn out to be that, what should be the response?” Dobbs said. “Because I’m not interested in two and three year programs … This country is not operating in the 21st century if we think we have time to retool, reposition, repurpose. We have to have an answer now.”" #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

The tweets, fired off in rapid succession late Friday morning, drew condemnation from advocacy groups and other critics who said the president should be focusing his attention on the lagging federal response to the deadly virus outbreak, not urging people to revolt against state guidelines. "Why is this your priority?" asked Vanita Gupta, president and CEO of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights. "Stop tweeting. People are dying." Public Citizen, a consumer advocacy group, pointed out that the president's tweets came after the U.S. on Thursday recorded its highest one-day coronavirus death toll to date at 4,591. Trump's tweet-storm began with an all-caps call to "LIBERATE MINNESOTA," the slogan used by right-wing demonstrators who rallied outside the home of Minnesota's Democratic Gov. Tim Walz on Friday." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

ANTHONY FAUCI: Well -- no, but Laura, this is different. HIV/AIDS is entirely different. We don't have a vaccine for HIV/AIDS but we have spectacularly effective treatment. People who invariably would have died years ago right now are leading essentially normal lives. SARS is a different story. SARS disappeared. We developed a vaccine -- we were in the process of going through the various phases. We showed it was safe, we showed it induced a good response and then SARS disappeared, and we didn't need to develop a vaccine for SARS. So I think it's a little bit misleading maybe to compare what we are going through now with HIV or SARS. They're really different." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

It's the secret to how she has lasted so long as senior counselor to President Donald Trump, someone who puts a premium on his advisers' ability to take lemons and turn them into lemonade. Or at least tell people they turned them into lemonade. But Conway's sangfroid for spin occasionally gets her into trouble. Wednesday morning was one of those times. In an appearance on "Fox & Friends," Conway was asked about Trump's decision Tuesday to revoke US funding for the World Health Organization. Here's what she said (bolding is mine): "The President took decisive and immediate action at the end of January to shut down flights to China. That was criticized by the WHO. It was criticized by other people as xenophobic and racist and travel bans don't work." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

The letter, which comes hours after Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., ended his campaign, tells Biden that his pitch to "return to normalcy" won't earn the trust of younger generations or inspire them to vote, arguing that they were already falling behind economically before Trump took office. "Exclusively anti-Trump messaging won't be enough to lead any candidate to victory. We need you to champion the bold ideas that have galvanized our generation and given us hope in the political process," read the letter, signed by the Alliance for Youth Action, Justice Democrats, the March for Our Lives Action Fund, NextGen America, Student Action, the Sunrise Movement and United We Dream Action." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

The Wednesday night vote was 220-210. Democrats reintroduced the bill in January, after passing it in 2019, banking on the party's narrow majority in the Senate to get it passed through both chambers this cycle. The bill seeks to "to expand Americans' access to the ballot box, reduce the influence of big money in politics, strengthen ethics rules for public servants, and implement other anti-corruption measures for the purpose of fortifying our democracy, and for other purposes."" #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

"I don't understand the political or economic wisdom in allowing Trump to give more people relief checks than a Democratic administration. People went far too long without relief last year," the New York Democrat told the Washington Post's Jeff Stein. "If anything we should be more generous, not more stingy.”" #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

Todd Piro and Ashley Strohmier interviewed Cawthorn on Fox & Friends First, where the topics ranged from election laws to the Biden Administration’s border policy. The interview turned to the lighter side, however, when Piro asked Cawthorn to react to President Joe Biden omitting Seuss from his proclamation for Read Across America Day." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks
