    Tennessee man arrested after allegedly playing recording similar to Nashville bombing

    excerpt:

    "The driver of the box truck, James Turgeon, 33, was arrested and charged with two counts of felony filing a false report and one count of tampering with evidence. Deputies stopped Turgeon in Wilson County, Tenn.

    Officials confirmed that an explosive device was not detected in the truck. Detective Sgt. Steve Craig said in the Sunday statement that Turgeon allegedly damaged the wiring of the speaker system “intentionally, resulting in the tampering with evidence charge.”

    Turgeon on Sunday was being held on a $500,000 bond at Rutherford County Adult Detention Center."

    So Mike Pence is skiing in Aspen. What happens if he breaks his leg? Will he kick a COVID patient out of bed?

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/12/28/trump-is-growing-smaller-before-our-eyes/

    excerpt:

    "Cementing his status as quite possibly the worst deal-maker ever to sit in the Oval Office, President Trump once again created a crisis, made some impulsive demands, then backed down at the last minute without actually obtaining anything other than some increased suffering for millions of Americans.

    His overdue capitulation in signing the bill that provides pandemic relief and keeps the government open was a vivid illustration of how weak Trump has become. And this episode might contain a silver lining: It might preview how Trump could fade into irrelevance in the coming few years, becoming not the continuing agent of chaos many fear, but instead a pathetic figure who is easier to ignore than we thought."

    Don't forget Colorado is a Democrat state and it has legalized weed. The natives hate his fucked up guts. Half the workers at the ski resort hotels are Mexican or Guatemalan. He should go and eat biscuits and sausage gravy at a hotel resort in Branson Missouri.

    Fauci was correct about the autumn surge.


    Fauci says U.S. needs to 'hunker down' for fall and winter
    “Don't ever, ever underestimate the potential of the pandemic. And don't try and look at the rosy side of things."

    You are trying to re-write history again

    Firstly, he does actually say anything there in September to be right about

    Secondly, he spent the previous 6 months too afraid to commit to saying season variations will make a difference

    April 9th

    "The top U.S. infectious disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, said Thursday it is uncertain whether the threat of the coronavirus sweeping the world will fade as the weather turns warmer in the Northern Hemisphere in the coming weeks.

    Fauci told ABC's "Good Morning America" that with other infections like influenza, when the weather gets warmer "the virus goes down in its ability to replicate, to spread."

    He added, "Having said that, one should not assume that we are going to be rescued by a change in the weather. You must assume that the virus will continue to do its thing. If we get some help from the weather, so be it, fine. But I don't think we need to assume that."

    The world's nations continue to struggle with the health and economic fallout from the coronavirus. By the latest count, more than 1.5 million people across the globe have contracted COVID-19, and more than 90,000 have died."

    Lev's lawyer just filed their demand for White House communication records. Biden is considering Sally Yates for AG. I bet your hero is trembling in his wing tips.

    In May, Fauci was correct when he said it was possible that a coronavirus vaccine could be ready for administering in November or December.

    Coronavirus: Fauci says vaccine possible by end of 2020

    excerpt:

    "In a CNN interview May 27, Anthony Fauci, MD, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, said that, if everything goes right, a vaccine could be available in November or December of this year.

    “We have a good chance, if all the things fall in the right place, that we might have a vaccine that would be deployable by the end of the year, by November-December,” he said in the interview."

    Birx is notable for making squirming motions while Trump was next to her at a press briefing and talking about ingesting disinfectants to treat the coronavirus.

    Soon afterward, Trump's handlers stopped his coronavirus briefings.

    Trump:

    "I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it. Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president."

    Unlike Trump, Fauci realizes that a vaccine isn't going to end the pandemic in a few months and that social distancing is still needed during the interim.

    Considering his complexion and hair, Pence will get lost in the snow.

    My favorite Fauci-ism from way back in March; "If it looks like you're overreacting, you're probably doing the right thing.”
    If everyone had heeded that advice of scientists from the git-go instead of that ignorant son-of-a-bitch, we wouldn't have 341,000 dead today.
