    Of course (they) will. Aside from the base (they) hate him just as much as their Dem counterparts. (Both) want it like it used to be= tired old bag way of doing things.
    So you like the new exciting way. A narcissistic liar who we lacks any consistency, accuracy, or leadership ?
    I will give you it is entertainment, but especially right now, give me Obama back please.

    The looming concern I have is the wealth gap grew under Obama and has continued a stronger pattern under Trump.
    The middle class, whatever your definition, seems to be a thing of the past and to me this is very dangerous.
    The bottom 50% of our taxpayers paid 3% of our taxes. The top 50% earners paid 97% of our taxes.

    Seriously, wtf?
    This is a diseased pattern that the orange man was making worse, even with his tax breaks to stimulate (pocketed and hidden)
    If half of our nation becomes people without a real reason to care because it just does not matter economically?
    If half of the people in our nation have no skins in the game they will not care about anything concerning a democratic system.

    Here's a fresh hot story:::







    • Share


    Rhode Island police began stopping cars with New York plates Friday. On Saturday, the National Guard will help them conduct house-to-house searches to find people who traveled from New York and demand 14 days of self-quarantine.
    “Right now we have a pinpointed risk,” Governor Gina Raimondo said. “That risk is called New York City.”
    New York is the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak in the U.S., on Friday reporting a total of 44,000 cases.



    Rhode Island has just over 200, and it has begun an aggressive campaign to keep the virus out and New Yorkers contained, over objections from civil liberties advocates.
    Raimondo, a Democrat, said she had consulted lawyers and said while she couldn’t close the border, she felt confident she could enforce a quarantine.
    Seaside Retreat
    Many New Yorkers have summer houses in Rhode Island, especially in tony Newport, and the governor said the authorities would be checking there.
    “Yesterday I announced and today I reiterated: Anyone coming to Rhode Island in any way from New York must be quarantined,” the governor said. “By order. Will be enforced. Enforceable by law.”



    Raimondo signed an executive order Thursday that applies to anyone who has been in New York during the past two weeks and through at least April 25. It doesn’t apply to public health, public safety, or health-care workers.
    National Guard members will be stationed at the T.F. Green airport, Amtrak train stations and at bus stops. The citizen-soldiers will be following up with people at local residences. The maximum penalty for not complying: a fine of $500 and 90 days in prison.



    The local chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union blasted the new rules, objecting to the collection of motorists’ contact information in particular.
    “While the Governor may have the power to suspend some state laws and regulations to address this medical emergency, she cannot suspend the Cons ution,” Rhode Island ACLU executive director Steven Brown said in a statement. “Under the Fourth Amendment, having a New York state license plate simply does not, and cannot, cons ute ‘probable cause’ to allow police to stop a car and interrogate the driver, no matter how laudable the goal of the stop may be.”



    Police Stops
    Just before 1 p.m. Friday, state police were set up on Interstate 95 northbound, at the rest stop closest to the Connecticut border. A mile or two before that, motorists could see signs ordering all New York passenger vehicles to pull over at the rest stop.
    One trooper could be seen there, checking license plates as cars went by. At the stop itself, a number of officers were assembled around a tent, ready to question vehicle occupants.

    Whose advice is that besides yours?

    Honest question, I've heard zip about masking up before going outside.
    ah

    CDC will ask people to don masks about the same time Trump urges Americans to go back to work and cease social distancing.

    Pandemic prevention theater, like taking off your shoes and 3.5oz bottles of liquids at airport security checkpoints. Does little to nothing to enhance personal or public safety.

    A mask that traps infection is now itself infected, and can infect you and your surfaces.

    iow, there's NOTHING easy and simple in defending yourself against this .

    'We are the laughingstock of the country,'

    Mississippi mayor laments after governor's deadly order



    Gov. Tate Reeves issued an order overruling mayors and reopening many businesses.

    Reeves has made his choice about what’s important, at least in the short term.

    “There’s no question that the purpose of the order was to keep businesses open, which is good for the economy,”

    “It’s definitely putting protections in place for the state’s economy.

    The flipside is that it’s doing that

    at the expense of human lives.”

    Good one, Winester. Weird from the get-go about no need for masks,.. "Even could be counter productive, yes! We really can't explain why you don't need them, but, you don't."

    Completely different experience. Nothing to compare it to---nothing like Instant. Out of this world, but, it's a process that can't be rushed. You have to slow cook it to a full boil without burning it. If you burn it, it's still edible, but, not near as quality. I burned many as a child where I first discovered it. I'd cook it before mother & father came home from work.

    Melts-in-your-mouth.

    I won't be surprised if they do change their recommendation at some point if there is enough supply. Fact is actual N95 masks work, just not the surgical masks that are for a different purpose.

    disagree whinehole

    masks do provide protection. about 5x compared to no mask (thats surgical. N95 provides 90%+ protection)

    AND biggest benefit is it really protects you from infecting others. if everyone wears a mask protection would increase tremendously

    called it

    glad CDC finally figured it out

    oh also EVERYONE SHOULD WEAR A MASK OUTSIDE

    thats key

    unless government and jobs can provide everyone with masks (even surgical masks are ok) and make it a requiement, we are toast

    I will call this one more time:

    the moment everyonerealizes we HAVE TO WEAR MASKS OUTSIDE life will be able to go as back to normal as possible

    I suspect deep state does want to go masks for everyone as it would derail their facial recognition /control plans
    CALLED IT

    slam dunk

    with these masks guidelines life will be back to relative normality in 3 months tops

    restaurants, ballgames and concerts will still be tough

    you have to take the mask off to eat and ballgames are just too crowded

    but everything else will be doable

    Long thread with a lot of caveats, but the first sign of a curve flattening in NYC. Still early, but this is a sign that the rate is slowing

    What will be really interesting but really scary is how much our piecemeal efforts can slow this down. If it slows down, but still grows just at a lower rate, we're in a world of hurt. If our half assed measures work reasonably well, then that actually means we may be able to get back to normal sooner though.

    I'm pretty skeptical of the latter, but I'm not an expert so w/e.
