I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!

Trump Laments – “nobody likes me” but everyone loves Dr. Fauci

Maybe its the fact that Dr. Fauci is not lying to the American people every chance he gets…

At today’s “coronavirus update” press conference – which usually has nothing to do with coronavirus and everything to do with Trumps reelection campaign – Trump responded to a reporter’s question about his relationship with Dr. Fauci.

“I get along with him very well and I agree with a lot of what he’s said,” Trump insisted.

“It’s interesting: he’s got a very good approval rating. And I like that, it’s good,” he went on. “Because remember: he’s working for this administration. He’s working with us. We could have gotten other people. We could have gotten somebody else. It didn’t have to be Dr. Fauci. He’s working with our administration. And for the most part we’ve done what he and others — and Dr. Birx and others — have recommended.”

Trump continued: “And he’s got this high approval rating. So why don’t I have a high approval rating with respect — and the administration — with respect to the virus? We should have it very high.”

“So it sort of is curious,” Trump said, “a man works for us, with us, very closely, Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx also, very highly thought of — and yet, they’re highly thought of, but nobody likes me?”

“It can only be my personality, that’s all,” he said.

Trump Would Not be Paying Respect to John Lewis in Washington

As the civil rights icon’s body lay in Capitol Hill, Donald Trump said he would not pay respect to the man who almost died while fighting for equal rights in this country.

Donald Trump, who in recent weeks has stirred racial tensions, says he has no plans to visit the late Congressman John Lewis as the civil rights icon lies in state at the US Capitol.

“No I won’t be going,” the president said. “No.”

The president delivered the news as he left the White House for a trip to North Carolina. As he took reporters’ questions, Mr Lewis’ casket had just arrived at the Capitol, where a military honour guard carried his American-flag draped casket up the white stairs and into the rotunda.

Meanwhile, leaders from around the world join the grieving of Rep. John Lewis.

Person, Woman, Man, Camera, TV, Insanity

Fantastic. This proves our president is finally a stable genius. “How did he do that,” the doctors asked themselves in bewilderment, for they had never seen a patient aced the cognitive test like this. They were in the presence of a stable genius. Amazing!

“Person, woman, man, camera, TV” is now the bragging point of the president of the United States. In the middle of a Pandemic where over 145,000 Americans have died so far, Donald Trump takes pleasure in telling reporters that his special brain is capable of remembering “person, woman, man, camera, TV.”

In less than 100 days, Americans will vote again for a president. And it is my hope that we will choose someone who is capable of guiding us through the many challenges facing this country, instead of a man who thinks that the ability to recite five words in a row means he’s exceptional.

Black man records his own Viscous Interaction with Police

I don’t know when this happened or where, but how it happened shows the reason why thousands of a people around world are protesting police brutality against black people.

The video shows a black man sitting in his car where he recorded the interaction with the police. He is then forced out of his car and can be heard telling the cop to get off his neck.

The video was uploaded, so it’s my assumption that he survived his interaction with the police officers.

Naked Woman Faces Off Against Trump’s Thugs in Portland

Yes, this happened at a Black Lives Matter demonstration, and I think this picture and the unidentified woman is sending a powerful message.

On its face, this picture will cause many to shake their head in disbelief disappointment. Some will even accuse the woman of using Black Lives Matter to promote her hidden agenda. But I see none of that. I see a woman showing the world that in her most vulnerable state, she is more than willing to stand up against an army of thugs in riot gear and rubber bullets.

She emerged as an apparition from clouds of tear gas as federal agents fired pepper balls at angry protesters in the early Saturday darkness.

A woman wearing nothing but a black face mask and a stocking cap strode toward a dozen heavily armed agents attired in camouflage fatigues, lined up across a downtown Portland street. The agents, dispatched by the Trump administration over vociferous objections of state and city officials, are part of a force that has fired projectiles at and detained activists protesting nightly since the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police May 25.

Numerous photos and videos posted on Twitter show the unidentified woman as she halted in the middle of the street at about 1:45 a.m. She stood calmly, a surreal image of human vulnerability in the face of an overpowering force that has been criticized nationally by civil rights advocates.

The agents, in gas masks and helmets, continued firing pepper balls in a staccato “pop, pop, pop” heard on video, aiming low at the asphalt, where puffs of smoke mingled with clouds of gas. At one point, a fellow protester, clothed, carrying a homemade shield, darted in front of the woman, angling to protect her.

But the woman sidestepped him. He jumped out of the way, perhaps realizing that he made them both a target.

Before it was over, she struck ballet poses and reclined on the street. She also sat on the asphalt in a yoga-like position, facing officers, before they left.

Donald Trump Proclaims – “I’ll be right eventually”

And in the meantime while Trump sits back and wait for his “right” moment to magically appear, Americans keep dying – over 140,000 of our families, friends and neighbors already dead. And what is Trump doing about it? Waiting…..

Donald Trump continues to insist the coronavirus will “disappear”, despite the recent surge in cases in several states like California, Texas, Arizona and Florida, and in contradiction of advice by public health experts that predict a long battle with the virus.

“I’ll be right eventually,” the president said in an interview that airs on Sunday with Chris Wallace of Fox News Sunday after the host played a series of clips that showed Mr Trump making pronouncements about the virus that have turned out not to be true.

“I will be right eventually. You know, I said, ‘It’s going to disappear.’ I’ll say it again. … It’s going to disappear, and I’ll be right,” Mr Trump said of Covid-19, which has killed more than 140,000 Americans over the least five months.

Rep. John Lewis Dead at 80 – #ThankYouJohn Lewis

Thank you John for your fight, for teaching us how to fight and for making us a better people.

Representative John Lewis, a son of sharecroppers and an apostle of nonviolence who was bloodied at Selma and across the Jim Crow South in the historic struggle for racial equality, and who then carried a mantle of moral authority into Congress, died on Friday. He was 80.

His death was confirmed in a statement by Nancy Pelosi, the speaker of the House of Representatives.

Mr. Lewis, of Georgia, announced on Dec. 29 that he had Stage 4 pancreatic cancer and vowed to fight it with the same passion with which he had battled racial injustice. “I have been in some kind of fight — for freedom, equality, basic human rights — for nearly my entire life,” he said.

Trump Administration Demands Control of Coronavirus Death and Hospitalization Data

Trump has often proclaimed the foolish notion that “testing” for Covid-19 “creates” the disease. And he recently admitted at a campaign event that he told his people to “stop the testing please.”

Now, in an obvious effort to hide Coronavirus information from the American public, the trump administration is demanding hospitalization information be sent to them instead of going to the CDC. A sure way to filter what the public hears about the dangers of the pandemic.

The new instructions were posted recently in a little-noticed document on the Department of Health and Human Services website. From now on, the department — not the C.D.C. — will collect daily reports about the patients that each hospital is treating, the number of available beds and ventilators, and other information vital to tracking the pandemic.

Officials say the change will streamline data gathering and assist the White House coronavirus task force in allocating scarce supplies like personal protective gear and remdesivir, the first drug shown to be effective against the virus. But the Health and Human Services database that will receive new information is not open to the public, which could affect the work of scores of researchers, modelers and health officials who rely on C.D.C. data to make projections and crucial decisions.

“Historically, C.D.C. has been the place where public health data has been sent, and this raises questions about not just access for researchers but access for reporters, access for the public to try to better understand what is happening with the outbreak,” said Jen Kates, the director of global health and H.I.V. policy with the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation.

“How will the data be protected?” she asked. “Will there be transparency, will there be access, and what is the role of the C.D.C. in understanding the data?”

Brain-eating Amoeba Found in Florida

Florida is going through a lot these days. In addition to being a new epicenter for Covid-19 since Florida’s governor reopened the state too early to please Donald Trump, the state is now host to a brain-eating amoeba.

One person in Hillsborough County has been infected with a potentially lethal amoeba that can cause brain tissue damage, according to a Hillsborough County Health Department release on Friday.

The Naegleria fowleri is sometimes referred to as a “brain-eating amoeba.” The “microscopic single-celled living amoeba” is usually found in ponds, rivers, lakes and other warm freshwater environments. It can lead to primary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAM), a rare infection that can result in destruction of brain tissue and is often fatal.

The Health Department news release did not disclose the water body involved, the identity of the person infected or their condition.nullRELATED: Rabid otters, flying fish, brain-eating amoebas: Here’s how Florida can kill you

The infection occurs when the amoeba enters the nose through contaminated water and travels to the brain. Its peak season is July through August, when there are lower water levels and higher water temperatures over a prolonged time period. The amoeba is more common throughout the South.

Since 1962, there have been 37 reported cases in Florida. Health officials recommend avoiding swimming in warm freshwater and “thermally polluted” bodies of water, like that near power plants. These activities should especially be avoided when water levels are lower and temperatures are higher. As an extra precaution, swimmers should hold their noses shut or use nose clips when in warm freshwater environments and avoid disrupting sediment.

Symptoms include fever, nausea, headaches, vomiting, loss of balance, stiff neck, seizures and hallucinations. A physician should be contacted immediately if one experiences these symptoms, as the infection progresses quickly.UP NEXT:At least 11 Publix employees test positive for COVID-19 in Tampa Bay area

Donald Trump’s Girlfriend Test Positive for Coronavirus

The New York Times is reporting that Kimberly Guilfoyle, the girlfriend of President Trump’s eldest son and a top fund-raising official for the Trump re-election campaign, tested positive for the coronavirus on Friday before a Fourth of July event at Mount Rushmore, a person familiar with her condition said.

Ms. Guilfoyle traveled to South Dakota with Mr. Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr., in anticipation of attending a huge fireworks display where the president was set to speak. They did not travel aboard Air Force One, according to the person familiar with her condition, and she was the only person in the group who tested positive.

Pennsylvania Woman to BLM – “You live off white people” and “Keep your HIV over there”

If their president can be a racist in the Whitehouse, why can’t they be racist in Pennsylvania? This particular racist was so angry that ‘Black Lives Matter’ protesters want to live freely in the land of the free and the home of the brave, that she just couldn’t suppress her racism.
