    You can tell from that vid the old man's sanity is hanging by a thread. He had a good run for you guys, Cub, owning the libs and all that.
    Seems as sharp as a serpent's tooth to me. Stood out there for almost 2 hours & he loves doing it.

    Those daily briefings are in lieu of his Rallies. & both he & CNN/MSM know it. Bugs CNN no end. That's why they cut away a few times during this last week, so, they could get in a few hits on him.

    + he'll be President forever, just like the 44 before him.

    Has he stumbled? Yes. I stipulate.
    Has he knelt?...

    "For what is a man, what has he got
    If not himself, then he has not
    To say the things he truly feels
    And not the words of one who kneels."

    This man. This President. This man. He will never kneel.

    Despite What Trump Says, His Administration Is Legally Required to Act as an ‘Ordering Clerk’ During Pandemic


    THE PRESIDENT:

    Sure. But it’s also needed for the federal government. We have a federal stockpile and they have state stockpiles.

    And, frankly, they were — many of the states were totally unprepared for this.

    So we had to go into the federal stockpile.

    But we’re not an ordering clerk. They have to have for themselves.

    requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) to:

    . . . maintain a stockpile or stockpiles of drugs, vaccines and other biological products, medical devices, and other supplies in such numbers, types, and amounts as are determined . . .

    to be appropriate and practicable, taking into account other available sources,

    to provide for and optimize the emergency health security of the United States,

    including the emergency health security of children and other vulnerable populations,

    in the event of a bioterrorist attack or other public health emergency.

    To accomplish that, the law requires the HHS secretary to work “in consultation with Federal, State, and local officials.”

    It gives the HHS secretary or the Homeland Security secretary the power to “deploy” the stockpile pursuant to those mandatory consultations.

    To accomplish deployment, the law says the HHS secretary must

    “devise plans for effective and timely supply-chain management of the stockpile,

    in consultation with . . . heads of other appropriate Federal agencies; State, local, Tribal, and territorial agencies;

    and the public and private health care infrastructure.”


    Let’s sum that all up:

    the law explicitly requires the Trump Administration to engage in

    “supply-chain management” to “maintain a stockpile” of “medical devices . . .

    appropriate . . . to provide for . . the emergency health security of the United States.”


    “Supply chain management” is pretty much the same thing as being a “shipping clerk” and an “ordering clerk,”

    https://lawandcrime.com/covid-19-pan...ring-pandemic/

    Neither Trash nor JK have the slightest clue that best US govt has to offer, of under Repug govt, has written plans, regs, and laws EXACTLY to plan for and manage a public health emergency

    Wanna take a guess at whether that's the actual quote or Chris, as usual, is misquoting someone to prop up Trump?

    I did.

    Eventually found the full quote. Yep. Out of context. Fauci never even said Trump's name.

    What’s Up with the Feds Seizing PPE Shipments to States and Hospitals?

    seizures of PPE goods by federal authorities.

    There are numerous cases where orders placed by states or hospitals have been canceled after they have been outbid by federal authorities or

    federal authorities have ordered vendors to sell to the federal government.

    a shipment of 3 million masks ordered through BJ’s Wholesale was seized by federal authorities in the Port of New York.

    a shipment of 35,000 masks had been confiscated by federal officials.

    the county was told the surgical face masks would be delivered that day, but that the federal government had taken the N-95 masks.”

    does not sound like the federal government outbid the county or forced it to sell but rather that

    the physical shipment was interdicted and seized by federal authorities.

    the government is monitoring large orders of equipment,

    but they had no idea where that was going.

    They’re on a watch for anybody ordering en masse.

    There are two key issues to consider here.

    One is that the federal government is telling states that they are responsible for getting their own supplies and should only appeal to the federal government in emergencies.

    at the same time federal authorities are seizing shipments that states, local governments and major medical organizations have purchased.

    also very unclear just who is seizing the supplies, what they’re being used for or who is getting access to them.

    these seizures of shipments are at best causing confusion for desperate states and hospitals.

    Trump to spend Sunday watching pastor who thinks he has a ‘secret weapon’ to stop the COVID-19 pandemic



    watching Pastor Greg Laurie from Harvest Church.

    Laurie has said that prayer is a “secret weapon we can employ against COVID-19.”

    He has also referred to the pandemic as “perhaps the greatest evangelistic opportunities of our entire ministry” in a request for financial support.

    “We saw with the rapid spread of coronavirus, we needed supernatural help, because this is something that cannot be solved with a purely human solution,” Laurie said.

    https://www.rawstory.com/2020/04/trump-to-spend-sunday-watching-pastor-who-thinks-he-has-a-secret-weapon-to-stop-the-covid-19-pandemic/

    you can donate here, gives you covid-19 antibodies

    https://harvest.org/donate/

    =======================

    AT t 17, Laurie got suckered into Christianity by this guy:

    "
    He was shunned and "written out of the official histories."[11]

    As part of his ostracism from his former churches, his work was diminished and maligned.

    Frisbee forgave those who tried to discredit him before his death from AIDS in 1993.

    Trump Administration Knocked Back $100M Virus Surveillance Plan During ‘Lost’ 70 Days

    The Trump administration lost 70 days in the deadly battle against COVID-19 by downplaying the threat, stalling funds and denying that American citizens were at risk

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention first learned of a cluster of novel coronavirus cases in China on Dec. 31 and four days later, on Jan. 3, an official in China confirmed the mysterious respiratory virus in Wuhan.

    Trump administration chose not to act out of fear of scaring markets and hurting the economy.

    Even when Alex Azar, the secretary of HHS, which oversees the CDC, raised the alarm and suggested that

    the CDC build a national coronavirus surveillance system,

    they were shut down because the $100 million plan was too costly.

    And when Robert Kadlec, an Air Force officer and physician who is the assistant secretary for preparedness and response at HHS again raised the alarm on Jan. 14, writing “Cornavirus !!!” in his notebook, he was ignored.

    The
    Post reports that, in early February, weeks after Chinese officials had locked down 11 million people in Wuhan, two letters to the White House Office of Management and Budget

    to shift $136 million of department funds to combat the virus should it grip the U.S. were ignored

    to avoid being “alarmist.”

    https://www.thedailybeast.com/trump-...-brett-crozier

    =================

    The U.S. was beset by denial and dysfunction as the coronavirus raged



    From the Oval Office to the CDC, political and ins utional failures cascaded through the system and opportunities to mitigate the pandemic were lost.

    Sounds legit

    “Over the last 14 days I have built another business outside politics and will be focusing my full attention there,” he wrote in the email, which was obtained by POLITICO.

    The fundraiser, Mike Gula, didn’t specify his new line of work in the email. But in an interview, he said he’d started a new company selling medical equipment that’s been in short supply during the coronavirus pandemic.

    The , Blue Flame Medical LLC, was formed Monday in Delaware, according to state records. Its website says it sells coronavirus testing kits, N95 respirator masks, “a wide selection” of personal protective equipment and other “hard to find medical supplies to beat the outbreak.”

    Asked how he’d managed to procure such equipment when there are shortages in hospitals across the country, Gula said, “I have relationships with a lot of people"

    ... like Jared Kushner, who is commandeering shipments to the states?

    The Philips Ventilator was $12K, now $18K
