bailouts you’re blue states? That’s a no go. They need to pick themselves up by their own bootstraps. Bailouts to trump supporting red states? That’s fine.
 


This is some next level grifting


Its interesting the feedback loop that the right wing has set up.

Grifters pull a stunt that they know will get them on Fox News. Fox News then gets days worth of rage out of the grifter. This gets them eyeballs and helps them continue to push their culture war. The grifter gets the money and attention that they want. Republicans take advantage of the grifter and Fox News to whip up base support and market their brand. Social media and Facebook market the grifter as some sad desperate victim of injustice.

Rubes then see it on Facebook and social media and share, retweet, post on message boards, etc. which creates more grifters who want in on the operation.



Meanwhile, injustices like these get zero attention from the entire right wing propaganda apparatus.
 
I know I’m going out on a limb here, but maybe we should follow this country’s lead?

 


This is raw Trumpism.

no platform.
No ideology.
They aren’t even coherent ideas.

it’s this attitude of telling experts and the mainstream to **** off while making as much money doing it. It’s the intellectual maturity of a 3 year old telling “No” when the parents tel him it’s time to go to bed.

in the end, I know that republicans under trump won’t build anything. I’m however afraid of the destruction That they’re causing on our society and democracy. The death from this pandemic, the damage to our foreign relations, and the shredding of our social fabric will take years to fix.
 


This is WHO report from January 22:

Data collected through detailed epidemiological investigation and through the deployment of the new test kit nationally suggests that human-to-human transmission is taking place in Wuhan. More analysis of the epidemiological data is needed to understand the full extent of human-to-human transmission. WHO stands ready to provide support to China to conduct further detailed analysis.

Some of the information in that Der Spiegel article is kind of interesting:
https://www.spiegel.de/politik/deut...avirus-a-51add7cf-96b6-4d04-a2d0-71ce27cff69c

The federal government[German government] has doubts about the US claim that the corona virus originated in a Chinese laboratory.

According to information from SPIEGEL, the Federal Intelligence Service (BND) has last week consilted with all partners of the secret service network "Five Eyes", which includes the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, and asked about evidence for the laboratory theory. None of the secret services could confirm the thesis that is being propagated, in addition to Trump, especially by US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
...
In an internal note for Secretary of Defense Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer, the US claims are classified as a calculated diversion. The US president is trying to use the laboratory theory to "distract from his own mistakes and direct American anger towards China," the confidential dossier said.

So yeah... this is what the German intelligence agency thinks about the lab theory that Trump is pushing - "calculated diversion to distract from his own mistakes and direct American anger towards China".

Also according to Der Spiegel German intelligence services think China's information policies lost the world between 4-to-6 weeks of response time:

The BND estimates that China's information policy has lost four to six weeks to fight the virus worldwide.

@Heathme will never actually respond to this. He’ll just continue to flood this forum with stupid tweets from fringe people.

But the rest of us appreciate the facts that you’ve presented. I know you probably didn’t post for him but for the rest of us. So Thank you for your post. Very informative.
