"Media accounts routinely ECHO the idea that Trump's motive in threatening to prosecute enemies is 'revenge.' But by all indications, the prosecutions of Trump are fully in keeping with due process and the rule of law. There ISN'T anything to get revenge for." - @GregTSargent

Trump's unhinged demand for absolute immunity has another ugly side to it that demands attention: He is conditioning his supporters to expect and demand a second term that's utterly unbound by the law. This is a highly unsettling development. 1/ Link:

Alex Azar now claims #FDA EUAs were "close to Christmas" & "later" than expected. Later than who expected? FDA #VRBPAC meetings had long been scheduled for Dec 10 & Dec 17. FDA EUAs for $PFE Dec 11 & $MRNA Dec 18. Manufacturing was done in advance.

Alex Azar has repeatedly said there would be 40M doses to "vaccinate" 20M before end of 2020. Here he said enough #COVID19 vaccine by end of December to vaccinate "the most vulnerable populations" in the U.S.
