Just a point to ponder: The Hong Kong flu came 1968-1969 and killed 100k Americans. Guess what concert happened right around the peak of that virus? Woodstock. Nobody canceled life, nobody closed the world. In 1970, the population was 200 million people.

Who authorized obama spying on reporters?

"Not that you ought to take influenza lightly. Flu season in the US, which runs from October through May, claims tens of thousands of lives every year. This season CDC estimates that, as of mid-March, between 29,000 and 59,000 have died due to influenza illnesses. Add to that the misery of hundreds of thousands of flu-related hospitalizations and millions of medical visits for flu symptoms this season."

Just remember tony, just because one brushes the dirt under the rug does not mean it is not there.....

Everyone here knows the consequences of shutting down but most of us prefer those consequences over death.

Moronic dem, as if out of state volunteers are needed in the future, many will refuse.

AG Barr is doing exactly what Pres Trump wants.

" Attorney General Eric Holder brushed off a question Thursday about when he might leave the administration. Instead, the top lawman professed his allegiance to President Barack Obama.

"I'm still enjoying what I'm doing, there's still work to be done. I'm still the President's wing-man, so I'm there with my boy. So we'll see," Holder said in an interview on the Tom Joyner radio show."

Govt, effectively running businesses better than the private sector, yeah, right; in your dreams.

Rwing nightmare, though, for the future. Hordes of vegetarian Americans with healthcare and universal basic income UBI, bottom up economics, parental leave, work at home jobs, and integrated robotic automation.

Oh, the horror.

Must all be republicans because we know that dems are too lazy to return to work if they can avoid it ; )

Riiiight, the party that wants Photo IDs for voting in every state -- WE ALLl really know which party who wants voter fraud to win elections.

Just another false story our of Politico because '...the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate'.

Wonder when the book burning will begin.

Miss Haulover Beach [north Miami]. It's a nude beach that we used to go to in the 90s. Have a funny vision of all the nudists out these wearing only masks : )

Are you seeing where folks are pretending you can't go 14 contagious days without symptoms?

No risk of any here on the Retort with such big egos ; )

Just another guesstimate due to more 'models'.

I'm for delaying any further aid until we see how things shake out over the next few months. Let's look at doing in Dec, you know, after the election so no more Pelosi non-aid add-ons.

#1 | POSTED BY NIXON AT 2020-04-23 09:43 AM | FLAG: So tell us how this would be any different if a dem was the POTUS???

Not seeing where anyone is being forced to leave their home; if you don't want to, then stay there.

Trump is president. He's responsible for the CDC. The need for testing was clear months ago and we're still not meeting it today.

#10 | POSTED BY RCADE : Then I guess you would believe that he needs to have fired the incompetent employees that have proven incapable of ratcheting up their production quickly enough to meet the massive short-notice demand for tests.
