Covid-19 is gone! Enter, Trump Virus

--------------
Pick your poison.
Remember, we heard this March 8th?
Was Trump not being informed by Fauci?
https://www.factcheck.org/2020/03/the-facts-on-trumps-travel-restrictions/
"President Donald Trump has made a number of misleading statements about his decision on Jan. 31 to impose travel restrictions related to the novel coronavirus epidemic. . .
Trump said he was “bold” in imposing travel restrictions even though “everybody said, it’s too early, it’s too soon” and “a lot of people that work on this stuff almost exclusively” told him “don’t do it.” Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar said the decision stemmed from “the uniform recommendations of the career public health officials here at HHS.”
Trump said Democrats “loudly criticized and protested” his announced travel restrictions, and that they “called me a racist because I made that decision.” Trump is overstating Democratic opposition. None of the party’s congressional leaders and none of the Democratic candidates running for president have directly criticized that decision, though at least two Democrats have.
Trump said the travel restrictions “saved a lot of lives” and reduced U.S. COVID-19 cases to “a very small number.” But experts say there isn’t enough data to make that determination. A study in the journal Science found the various travel limitations across the globe initially helped to slow the spread, but the number of cases worldwide rose anyway because the virus had already begun traveling undetected internationally.
--------------- Gain of Function
https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/top-us-health-advisor-dr-fauci-backed-controversial-wuhan-lab-for-risky-coronavirus-research-report/articleshow/75449844.cms
"Top US health advisor Dr Fauci backed controversial Wuhan lab for risky coronavirus research: Report
"Many scientists have criticized gain of function research, which involves manipulating viruses in the lab to explore their potential for infecting humans, because it creates a risk of starting a pandemic from accidental release," the report said.
https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2020/07/who-led-mission-may-investigate-pandemic-s-origin-here-are-key-questions-ask
"Soon, other theories emerged. Some believe it’s no coincidence that the city is host to the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), home to leading bat coronavirus researcher Shi Zheng-Li. Her group, one of the first to isolate and sequence SARS-CoV-2, has trapped bats in the wild for 15 years, hunting for coronaviruses to help identify pandemic threats. In their first report about the new virus, the scientists described a bat coronavirus in their collection that was 96.2% similar to SARS-CoV-2."
 
-------------
https://thehill.com/changing-america/resilience/natural-disasters/505075-who-plans-to-send-team-to-wuhan-to-investigate
https://www.indiatoday.in/news-analysis/story/how-china-dam-may-have-worsened-wuhan-flooding-1699190-2020-07-10
"Scrutiny of satellite images suggests the floodwaters were released from the dam's spillways prematurely this year.
Also this year, China's Central Meteorological Observatory issued a 30-day rainstorm warning.
This long duration is rare, given hi-tech monitoring at all hydrographical checkpoints.
That said, the warning about heavy rains and thunderstorms for June 30-July 30 covered all parts of China and Hong Kong.
The catchment area of the Three Gorges Dam, located at the site of the Zhongbao Island, has grown tall over the last five years because of high mountains around.
Satellite images indicate that the reservoir could have absorbed more rainwater in the catchment area as it did before.
The level of the water as observed in an old image of October 27, 2017, was much higher, by at least 15 meter, than its present status. Still, no floodgates were opened and electricity generation continued as usual back then.
The latest images, however, indicate that the floodgates were released as early as June 24, 2020 and remained open even till Thursday.
China's state-controlled media reported flooding in the Yangtze on July 2.
"At the Three Gorges Dam in Hubei Province, the flood's inflow rate reached 50,000 cubic meters of water per second. As a result, the dam opened three flood discharging outlets to ease the flood's impact on the river's lower reaches," said a report on CGTN, a mouthpiece of the communist regime."Since June 29, the outflow of the Three Gorges Dam has been controlled at an average daily rate of 35,000 cubic meters per second, reducing up to 30 percent of the Yangtze's peak discharge, which has effectively relieved the pressure of flood control on the middle and lower reaches of the river," it added."
GREATER CHALLENGE FOR WHO INVESTIGATORS
Meantime, the flood situation may pose a tougher challenge to World Health Organization, which is preparing to investigate the origins of Covid-19.
According to a WHO statement, two of its experts are headed to the Chinese capital to lay the groundwork for a larger investigation into how the deadly virus jumped from animals to humans in Wuhan.

This is a harm reduction site and OP along with a few others are actively participating in an effort to undermine the most critical harm reduction strategies for dealing with the pandemic. The shroomery shouldn’t be giving people a soapbox to spread dangerous and deadly lies and pseudoscience about this public health crisis.

I will say he managed to con middle america into believing that he gives a single fuck about them or the way they live there lives. He's so blatantly used the presidency for business and kicking back all his backers and business partners.
Somehow people think that he's a good business man because of a reality television show. When every business he's ever started has failed. The only thing he's good at is stealing investors money. I know he's not all that smart so they must be really dumb.
His SiL literally called the American people his customers. When we are in fact his boss. Shows what they think of the people. Can't believe we wasted 4 years and all that got accomplished was big business getting bigger tax breaks.
He's a ragtag business man that'll teach them wealthy elite... he is the wealthy elite he's no blue collar worker lol.
"Known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), the law has benefitted corporations and the wealthy while doing little or nothing for working families, according to a new analysis from the Economic Policy Institute and the Center for Popular Democracy."
He even took away safety features at i believe chicken slaughter houses so they can go unsafely fast. Because fast pace and poor safety features are what the average worker loves. 
Oh well hopefully he'll be out and all those indictments get him some jail time.
You would think elections would be big deals. Every year the 2 choices we get get worse and worse it seems.

Trump used the presidency to make his friends richer. The only people who benefited were the mega businesses. He did manage to con the entirety of middle america. Not only is he terrible at everything he does he's also a sexist and racist pig. Even the way he looks with his fake hair just looks like the ultimate sleazeball.
I'm really surprised that Joe Biden of all people is who the democrats chose though. They don't have any young hip people that could run. I think we should start getting some people in mid 30's running. What's up with it always being these geriatric sleaze balls. Obama was hip and cool.

He wasn't fired, he finished two full terms. Don't recall anything about Hillary being involved in the impeachement proceedings, I thought it was the Republicans driving it.
Certainly a lot of people found her unlikable though.

IIRC Lewinsky told her friend about the encounter and the friend went public.
A lot of people think he was removed from office because he was impeached, but impeachment doesn't necessarily result in removal from office. Didn't for Trump either.

Who got fired? The Clinton impeachment was spearheaded by Newf Gingrich who had to resign during the hearings because it was revealed he had cheated on his wife. The guy who was gonna replace him as speaker dropped out because he also cheated on his wife. They finally settled on Dennis Hastert, who after spending a few years as speaker of the the house spent a few years in federal prison for molesting boys he coached on a high school wrestling team. 🤦♂️

A lot of people think he was removed from office because he was impeached, but impeachment doesn't necessarily result in removal from office. Didn't for Trump either.
The real villain in the whole scandal was Linda Tripp, who was secretly recording conversations with Lewinsky, who had confided in Tripp about her consensual relationship with Clinton. Tripp then went to the special counsel and spilled the beans. She was savaged in the media. John Goodman played her on SNL, exaggerating her worst qualities.

definitely a CIA agent and not a saint but you cant blame someone for gossiping about the president even if it was recorded secretly.

People are getting past giving a shit about their mortality if this is new reality
Then the owners of whatever building you work in should be made to supply sufficient air conditioning to the people working inside of it!!! WTF is that? Who the fuck do they think they are not providing a safe and cool environment for the workers? You should be absolutely outraged at this! I bet those greedy fucks don't work in that all day now do they?

bodhisatta said: It sucks trump is such a idiot dickhead because he's actually done a lot more than our last three presidents put together to pull troops out of war and foreign countries they don't need to be in. As well as lower prescription drug costs.
The orders The first order targets high insulin prices, requiring federal community health centers to pass discounts they receive on the drug and EpiPens directly to patients. The president said those providers shouldn’t receive those discounts while charging their patients “massive, full prices.”
The second order would allow states, pharmacies and wholesalers to import drugs from Canada where they typically cost less than in the U.S. In most circumstances, it is illegal to import medications from other countries for personal use, according to the Food and Drug Administration.
The pharma industry and regulators have said importing drugs could threaten consumer safety. Supporters, including Sen. Bernie Sanders, say importing drugs from other countries would increase competition and substantially lower prices.
WATCH NOW VIDEO01:27 President Trump signs executive orders aimed at lowering drug prices The third order is aimed at preventing “middlemen,” also known as pharmacy benefit managers, from pocketing “gigantic discounts,” Trump said. PhRMA has argued that drug price hikes over the years have been modest and has cited concerns with the nation’s rebate system.
Alex Azar, secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, told reporters on a conference call after the signing ceremony that drug companies currently pay about $150 billion in undisclosed kickbacks to middlemen often in exchange for more favorable insurance coverage for their drugs.
“The new rule would require those kickbacks be passed through to our seniors when they walk into the pharmacy,” Azar said, adding that it would reduce prescription drug costs for senior by about 26% to 30% or $30 billion a year.
TREX: Say a med costs like 1500 a month, do you really think taking 26-30% off that price will help much? ONly to the people that already afford it really.
Policy analyst Lindsay Greenleaf said there are potential unintended consequences that could actually drive prices higher on Part B Drugs, which are administered by physicians, because the drugmakers could favor large volume buyers like hospitals over physician practices.
TREX: Here is the plan hidden in all of this, what a fucker! Always trying to make more profits for big businesses
“The way that that model was previously proposed, there is a risk of driving consolidation because (individual) providers weren’t going to be able to compete as well as they do currently,” Greenleaf, who is vice president for policy at ADVI Health, said.

You mean like the murder of your well being? Why not make it more efficient and seal it more so the AC works better. Oh, wait, that would mean spending MONEY that the OWNERS make by the millions and you all can't have them making less now could you? that would mean they would have to cut your pay and fire people to keep on making the millions of dollars that you people helped them make, got it.

BULLSHIT!!! They CAN be air conditioned. The owners of the fucking company refuse to do so because they would make less profit. They can make it more comfortable and make a better building, but the rules in place allow business owners to FUCK OVER all the employees with this kind of SHIT!
