The Third Wave - a podcast by Justin Ahn

This is, by far, the worst the COVID-19 pandemic has been. Cases, hospitalizations and deaths are peaking. Yet, the incompetence of Trump's response, along with Republican governors and senators who surely know better, remains. He wants to create a fake reality where the virus doesn't exist, through misinformation (about masks and social distancing) and conspiracy theories; by politicizing a non-partisan public health crisis. Be cautious in daily life. 

Also: a bipartisan economic stimulus bill waiting for Mitch McConnell's approval for a vote on the Senate floor; promising news of a vaccine, though prioritizing, distributing and administering it will be a major challenge itself for the Biden administration; Trump's continued denial of the election results, worrying about his future post-presidency, and certifications in spite of him.
