The world needs way more obscure Monty Python references in times like these.
With all of the Monday Morning quarterbacking on the US response, I guess I need to know which country it was that really aced this whole situation? I'd have guessed "Germany" maybe, until their minister of finance offed themselves in the last 24 hours, so you gotta think they're ramping up, too. Last week, I was reading on here and in the MSM just how great China's response was, and many of those same folks would have you believe US deaths surpassed Chinese deaths. How naïve is that?
And Mookie … wrong about the Mueller Report, Trump was exonerated, the report invented a new standard of justice (exoneration) previously unrecognized by US law, and the Clinton-packed prosecutorial team was even undecided on that bogus front. You also remember just how well Mueller's Congressional testimony went last year … uh, he didn't even know what was in his own report. Next ...
As Whalers so ably pointed out earlier today … the US intelligence community has hardly covered itself in glory over the last 3+ years. It's like "the boy who cried wolf" - you craft and support enough Deep State narratives, you lose your credibility. So when the "big one" finally arrives, and no one believes your agency because you've been up your own collective a-holes with silly stuff designed to embarrass and unseat your boss … you forfeit your right to credibility. And before we get to "Then why didn't Trump just fire those guys?" … well, he did that with a guy named Comey, who turned around and tried to sandbag him with "Russia". Prelude as prologue?
We are ALL now paying the price for the silliness of the last 3+ years, when instead of doing more positive things for the country, half of Congress (and 90% of the MSM) was throwing an infantile temper tantrum that they didn't get their way in 2016. Could Trump's response have been better? Sure. But he has a LOT of company on the "blame pie" exercise. A 90% slice of that pie goes over the Pacific to Communist China, another 5% to the WHO … have a blast hacking up the remaining 5% between Trump, Pelosi's "Resistance", Deep State lack of credibility, Mayor DeBlasio, Mardi Gras in New Orleans, European Union, etc. ad nauseum.
For those interested in a 5 minute video clip as a follow-up to an item I linked yesterday on here, what follows is Tucker Carlson discussing the WHO's relationship with China, and an expanded version of the embedded video clip I provided yesterday. WHO's second in command (a Canadian BTW) first pretends not to hear the interviewer's question about Taiwan - then when he's asked about Taiwan a second time, you can visibly see him ending the skype. They call him up after, ask him again, and given a third opportunity, he adroitly refuses to recognize Taiwan, other than a reference to "different areas of China", toeing the Beijing line.
The sequence is followed by Dr. Aylward praising Wuhan for its response, saying how "we are all indebted to Wuhan" (gee thanks) and later in his interview, they discuss how the WHO Director General Dr. Tedros praised the "superiority of the Chinese socialist system", when of course, China is a totalitarian communist regime. Some other compelling questions follow about certain private and corporate WHO contributors who don't seem all that curious about this stuff.
If after viewing this, you still don't think the WHO has been implicit in running interference for Communist China - to the detriment of its chief funder (US) and the rest of the world - then I don't think there's anything left to discuss, sorry ...

Well … if it weren't bad anough … those freedom-loving, we're-part-of-the-global-community, "We're here to help" Wuhanese are apparently back to their old tricks again. The wet markets - where we've been told this stuff all originated - have been re-opened. Dog, cats, lizards, scorpions, and (drum roll please) … bats are all once again available to the Wuhanese for their dining pleasure.

Now if that's not rubbing it all in our collective faces, I'm not sure what is.

Yankees Suck On that we do agree RefYeah, I do so agree with Cuomo's statement...of course the President can't get through ONE of these pressers without saying something about this governor not liking him etc. But, who's politicizing it? I see it as pointing out one's perception of the situation. If that's politicizing it, well, sorry. As per Obama, I'm going to be straight up that I really didn't follow the politics as much as I do now. I felt pretty assured that he was doing a decent job. Now, that's not without saying he didn't make mistakes he was not perfect. But lest we forget, he spent 6 years fairly beleaguered by the Repubs and that's no surprise. I don't want to re hash that stuff anyway; like I said, I really didn't engage in it all. Felt he was a good President, and an honorable man, which, I hold as a big value if I'm going to respect someone.
As per the Pandemic team...well, I don't know what Trump wanted to do. I have a feeling it was just to unravel one more thing Obama put in place, if I'm speculating. Of course when he was asked about that, he said he didn't know 'any thing about that' 'I did that' and other typical deflecting (as I see it). Just like when he says he "doesn't know these people in the pictures; I take so many pictures" (then you see him in 15 pictures with the person but, hey, just a coincidence. (yes, I'm being sarcastic) So, I don't think he had any intention on doing that (making up his 'own team' as I do not believe that team was ever in place?) As with so many govt. agencies that no longer exist (and I am not a fan of huge government) this went away too.
So, that's my take on the Pandemic Team. There's plenty to read about it, you can hear DJT him self talk about doing it, but I'm not digging up those you tubes. Too exhausted from working remotely I'd so much rather be in my classroom. Oh, yeah, I hate him. Wow. I just don't care for him much. I hate the Yankees, now that's...hate.
As soon as you said Tucker Carlson I quit reading. The guy is more a buffoon than the donald himself and he''d do anything for ratings.For those interested in a 5 minute video clip as a follow-up to an item I linked yesterday on here, what follows is Tucker Carlson discussing the WHO's relationship with China, and an expanded version of the embedded video clip I provided yesterday.
