Pro-Trump counties now have far higher COVID death rates. Misinformation is to blame

Corrected on December 6, 2021

This story has been updated to clarify the relationship of political partisanship to vaccination status.

Additionally, Florida's counties were removed from the analysis after publication because we learned that Florida has not updated county-level death numbers since June 3. With the removal of these 67 counties, heavily Trump counties go from a 2.73 times higher death rate than heavily Biden counties to 2.78 times more.

Dec. 8, 2021

Up-to-date county-level death data for Florida has been missing from the Johns Hopkins database since June 3, when the Florida Department of Health stopped publishing this data on its website. However, the Community Profile Report, produced by the White House COVID-19 Team, publishes this information on a weekly basis, based on data reported to the CDC. Using this data, we have added Florida back into our analysis. Likewise, the Community Profile Report includes county-level death data from smaller counties in Utah that are not reflected in the Johns Hopkins data; we have updated those in our analysis. These changes mean that heavily Trump counties have a 2.73 times higher death rate than heavily Biden counties (a shift from 2.78 times higher with Florida excluded).

Progressives want a wealth tax for the super rich. Here's why it's hard to pull off

Corrected on November 17, 2021

A previous version of this story indicated that getting compensated in company stock meant recipients were not liable for taxes. In fact, in many instances, employees or executives who are compensated in stocks do have to pay taxes. It's mainly founders who own shares in their own companies who can avoid taxes on those stocks unless they sell their holdings.

Previously posted Nov. 13, 2021: A previous version of this story incorrectly said the $1.2 trillion increase in U.S. billionaires' worth was roughly the size of Japan's entire economy and almost two times the size of India's.

George Floyd's Impact On The Fight For Racial Justice

Corrected on May 28, 2021

In this report, attorney Andrea Ritchie asserts that "thousands of officers get away with killing people without consequences every year in this country." While there's no reliable data to determine how many officers participate in killing members of the U.S. public annually, data suggests that police kill about 1,000 people a year. Ritchie's assertion that the officers get away "without consequences" is also challenging to prove. When we heard concerns after the interview, we contacted Ritchie to ask her to explain her assertion, and she said she meant without arrest or prosecution. According to the Henry A. Wallace Police Crime Database, since 2005, 142 officers have been arrested on charges of murder or manslaughter in the shooting and killing of someone while on duty. Philip Stinson, who leads this research, says 44 out of those 142 officers have been convicted of a crime: Seven officers were ultimately convicted of murder, 23 of varying degrees of manslaughter and five of varying levels of homicide, and the others were charged with lesser offenses. Officers also face other consequences, including being fired, demoted or placed on leave, which are not tracked nationally and are difficult to quantify.

Corrected on May 28, 2021

Wallace Police Crime Database, since 2005, 142 officers have been arrested on charges of murder or manslaughter in the shooting and killing of someone while on duty.
