FDA: "The FDA is aware of reports of serious heart rhythm problems in patients with COVID-19 treated with hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine...Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine have not been shown to be safe and effective for treating or preventing COVID-19..." — PolitiTweet.org

New: "FDA cautions against use of hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine for COVID-19 outside of the hospital setting or a clinical trial due to risk of heart rhythm problems." https://t.co/2EAQLiwAUe — PolitiTweet.org

Some of my favorite fact checks in this genre were 1) when I had to get the head of the Babe Ruth Museum to address the false claims the president made about Babe Ruth while awarding Babe Ruth a posthumous Presidential Medal of Freedom, and 2) when I had to get professors of — PolitiTweet.org

Again, there is a whole genre of statement that is like “we have no idea how we ended up having to comment on the president, but since we have to, here it is...” — PolitiTweet.org

You really have to be on your toes. I missed the stuff about the bleach treatment because I was busy asking people if I’d heard the president correctly about the heat treatment. — PolitiTweet.org

Here's Trump's public schedule for tomorrow. (Public schedules don't include all of a president's activities.) https://t.co/E43GgAOvfG — PolitiTweet.org

New: Gov. Cuomo says preliminary results of large NY hydroxychloroquine study showed it "didn't really have much of an effect on the recovery rate"; lead researcher says "no statistically significant difference" between patients who took it and didn't: https://t.co/XtCNhoA32l — PolitiTweet.org

Tonight, the president said that people with the coronavirus can “maybe” be cured with “light and heat.” https://t.co/22wwWEygnl — PolitiTweet.org

Trump claimed Joe Biden doesn't want to debate him because of the coronavirus. The below Biden quote is from today. https://t.co/4RPpeAqP9n — PolitiTweet.org

Trump: "We've gotten very little credit for the great job we've done." This has been a "briefing" very heavy on media-bashing. — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Asked about the chances the election result will be disputed because of pandemic-related voting impediments, Trump says he can't say what's going to happen, then pivots to bashing Biden at length. — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Trump says he told Kemp he's "not in the guidelines," "I don't want this thing to flare up because you're deciding to do something that's not in the guidelines," and that it's not safe. But he rejects the suggestion that Kemp "defied" him. — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Trump: I want states to open "much more" than Brian Kemp does, but I didn't like to see spas and beauty and tattoo parlors open, and "I wasn't happy with Brian Kemp." He repeats "I wasn't happy with Brian Kemp" at least twice more. — PolitiTweet.org

"CNN is fake news. Don't talk to me." — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Trump repeats his usual story about how you would've been at war with North Korea if he weren't elected, then his claims about how he's rebuilt the military, then says something about fake news. — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Trump: "It's just a suggestion" from a brilliant lab and a very very smart perhaps brilliant man. "I'm just here to present talent. I'm here to present ideas." (Again: flashing bright caution lights.) — PolitiTweet.org

Trump: "I'm the president and you're fake news." — PolitiTweet.org

Asked if it's dangerous for him to make people think they'll be safe in the heat considering people dying in Florida and Singapore, Trump says, "You ready? I hope people enjoy the sun. And if it has an impact, that's great." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump also said this -- I missed some of his words here: https://t.co/Kf3O0TRSbZ — PolitiTweet.org

Trump: "We started with a broken test. A test that didn't work." The faulty test was developed by the CDC in 2020. (He didn't specifically say this time that they "inherited" this test, so: temporary improvement!) — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Trump: If we tested every person once, the media would say we need to test them twice. "No matter what you do," he says, "it doesn't make any difference." It makes a difference in dealing with the pandemic... — PolitiTweet.org
