No one is debating that, so why are you bringing it up? Is that all you know is anti-trump this anti-trump that? Do you not have a bright enough spectrum of intelligence to debate anything or discuss anything but how much of a pompous asshole Trump is? Open your mind sir there’s so many other things to discuss. We all know Trump is an idiot there’s no need to keep bringing that into every debate.

I believe that one is "Seven of Nine". "They" are a boring collective.

Sure....cause the dead horse flinched right? Makes sense if someone is defending that douche but why drag him into a subject that has nothing to do with him? Obsession?

Because by reading the comments in here it is obvious that, whether a poster will admit it or not, the influence of trump is thick. Just because an idea bounced around the bubble then ended up in your lap doesn’t change the origin.
 
When President-elect Joe Biden announced his Covid-19 advisory board in November, he promised its health care experts would play a critical role in shaping his pandemic response plan.
But, on the eve of Biden’s Thursday rollout, the board members are largely in the dark about the plan’s details, according to three people familiar.
Biden’s Covid-19 response — portions of which will be laid out by the president-elect in a prime-time speech here — is expected to serve as a blueprint for pandemic efforts across the government, including a range of initiatives designed to boost testing, speed the development of new coronavirus therapies and distribute vaccines to hundreds of millions of Americans.
But most of the Covid advisory board, which Biden formed within days of the election as part of an effort to demonstrate that ending the pandemic would be his top priority, will not be briefed on the plan until tomorrow afternoon.

So what exactly will Biden unveil today? If you missed Jazz’ post from earlier today, be sure to read it now, but thus far the groundbreaking plan is to, er, continue what we’re already doing.

Highlights of the Biden plan. The testing is insanity. By the time it is in place the worst of the crisis will have passed....it only ensures testing casedemics will be used to shut schools, sports and businesses into the future since they aren't going to have all those COVID testing sites sit empty. The eviction moratorium is going to cause increasing structural damage to the underlying economy the longer it goes on. The overall amount also increases the likelihood of a stagflation scenario. The $15 minimum wage will hurt small businesses at a time they are looking to get on their feet and make it less likely Rs like Collins, Murkowski and Romney will sign onto this and also posses a stagflation risk.

What is "casedemics"?

Lots of people testing positive, not much by way of actual bad illness, hospitalizations or deaths. An epidemic but only of cases.

It's a neologism (born roughly August(?)) so I don't feel bad about not knowing it. I guess we read in different circles.

There is no COVID-19 “casedemic.” The pandemic is real and deadly.

Antivaccine activists and pandemic minimizers Del Bigtree and Joe Mercola are promoting the myth of the "casedemic" that claims that the massive increase in COVID-19 cases being reported is an artifac

that's not really surprising....our tastes are very different since we've established you like original source history books, and hadn't been exposed to either Rashomon or Cobra Kai. I'm reading JJ's "Ulysses" right now...have wanted to get through it forever but never disciplined enough. You?
 
33% and change baby! Guess we are really going to find out where that herd immunity threshold is once and for all notwithstanding mask mandates, curfews, lockdowns, outdoor dining shut, and schools still largely shut.

I am in the middle of reading old Arthur C. Clarke novels and a book on Middle Eastern history written by an author with a strong pro-Isreal bias. My attack on the San Diego Public Library has slowed considerably since I started staying home most days and my son gave me a seat on his Netflix and HBOMax accounts.

That's nice of your son. Shocking, yes, but we actually have Arthur C Clarke in common (though for me it was a long time ago). Though I am very strong in history, the middle east is my weakest and I have no done much by way of reading in that region.
