Twitter CEO Steps Down

FOX - Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey has officially stepped down from his role this week.

Trump COVID Positive Before Debating Biden?!

NBC - Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows revealed that Trump tested positive for COVID-19 three days before his first presidential debate against Joe Biden in a new book, first reported by The Guardian, which cited an excerpt. In the book, Meadows said Trump seemed “a little tired” and suspected that he might have a “slight cold” before he found out about the positive result on his way to a rally in Pennsylvania. In a statement, Trump has since denied that he was sick at the time of the first positive result. “The story of me having COVID prior to, or during, the first debate is Fake News," Trump said. "In fact, a test revealed that I did not have COVID prior to the debate.”
