I am always amused when people announce virtual "conference" or "summit". Making an ACTUAL event is lots of work (travel, food, accommodation, program, sponsors). Virtual? You can do this setup in your undies, setting up some Google account or Zoom etc. They're NOT "conferences" but webstreams!

1. Democrats Must Demolish Trump’s Delusional Law-Breaking Dystopia
  
  from Common Dreams
  
  "The Democrats are not matching Trump’s own or his party's propaganda.".. Donald Trump continually breaks multiple laws. Yet the serial lawbreaking, lying Trump is playing the “law and order” card against street protestors reacting to fatal cases of police brutality. Armed pro-Trump provocateurs are attending civic protests and generating casualties and property damage, as was the case recently in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
