The Washington Post
President Trump claims he downplayed the threat of the coronavirus to avoid panicking the public. But a detailed review by The Post found that in the crucial 10 days after Trump's national security adviser warned him covid-19 was the country's top threat, Trump didn't simply play down the crisis — he played golf at his Mar-a-Lago club, threw a Super Bowl bash, worked on his State of the Union speech, obsessed over punishing his political enemies, and “largely attempted to pretend the virus did not exist."
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
