Well, dang.

Two minutes of good video and a talking head takes over to tell us what to think.

That said, those first two minutes were golden and the talking head does a good job of describing why that congressman -- 4-year a poly sci graduate -- would HAVE to take on a towering figure in viral epidemiology on a subject that was clearly not his strong suit.

That said, I run into this in my line of work all the time. It's common. I don't know what the answer is. All I know is, when the expert reviews the work and his results don't agree with what somebody wants to hear they try to shoot the messenger. Fauci is amazing in his ability to get hit by a pitch and not show how much it hurts.
It's not just Fauci, he was the tip of the spear, he represented not just his opinion, but a consensus of expert scientific opinion and guidance. Only fools ignore such things, if they are to be challenged, this is not the arena to do it in, there are peer reviewed journals for that. Good luck and ya better have yer ducks lined up and ready to go and know yer shit, or you'll have a pretty rough ride. :D No back of the envelope calculations please!

Aren't all of us here talking heads?

Joe: ‘Donald Trump Will Lead To The End Of The Party Of Abraham Lincoln’ | Morning Joe | MSNBC

Joe addresses GOP leaders whose ‘window is closing’ to abandon their support for President Trump and salvage the Republican party.
Joe Scarborough nails the fact that Donald J Trump has destroyed any & all credibility of the Republican party for a generation, at least for
anyone that has existed & survived fucking TRUMPS Virus in this country.
Just think about ALL the Republican Presidents we have had in the last 50 years.
Nixon
Ford
Reagan
Both Bushes.
Where did they leave this country after they left?
In a pile of shit, where a Dem comes in and fixes their fuck ups. (i.e. Carter/Clinton/Obama)
Will we ever learn?

It appears the democrats are more likely to build successful communities and the republicans are good at ripping them apart. Economic ideology has been tied to a political philosophy that impedes change, wages social war on minorities and distorts the process of democracy and policies to do so, conservatives, poisoned by racism and trump. The cynical and greedy wealthy ride this social division that impedes change and throws up corrupt politicians, like a horse to their benefit. Now that there is polarization, a party driven by liberal change and populated by minorities and those seeking economic justice on the left, is about to assume power. Slavery ended for a reason James, so did the gilded age and the new deal happened because of it too. Not just Trump will be defeated, but the republicans too, in their heartland, the last ghost of the confederacy will be buried, covered in the stars and bars, not old glory.

If only the Democrats don't fuck it up, themselves. To me, women are the future and Katie Porter will be there.

The truth is eternal it would appear. To be stupid is not the same thing as to be hate filled, just as intelligence is no guarantee of ethical and moral behavior (Mike Pompeo, Bill Barr). Being stupid does often mean you are on the bottom of the economic heap though and are more vulnerable to disinformation and conspiracy theories that offer simple explanations of moral failings in the powerful, for what are in reality complex issues.

Many of the not so bright are good people, hatred is conditioned by our environments, as is so much about us. Our experience of reality is hardware dependant, our perceptions of it are guided by our instincts and conditioning, that both filter and accentuate our perceptions of it, what passes for logical thought, is more often rationalisations for feeling driven emotions, supported by thinking. Delusion is normal, nobody thinks they will die all the time, we go on the assumption that we will live forever and that nothing will change, not realising we are a process embedded in the flow of time that is part of larger processes on multiple levels. There is no homunculus behind the eyes, only physical processes in the brain that manifest themselves as awareness and consciousness. The brain learns, responds to experience, is conditioned by it and sculpted by it, the brain and mind change and age too we are not the same as when we were 12, yet something remains the same. Sometimes even the stupid can evolve, the smart are harder to convince.

Ya know, I think Jared has a date with the house hotseat, lets see how he does under some pointed questioning. Should make real interesting TV based on this video at least, but there is more, much more. Jared and Ivanka must be fucking terrified or idiots, pardons will do them no good, they were involved in the scheme and the SCOTUS would rule them illegal, hands down.

LTC Vindman Serves the Country, While Jared Kushner's Virus-Testing Task Force Sells Out the Country

Comparing news reports in recent days on two men - Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman and Jared Kushner - shows how some people ask themselves what they can do FOR their country while others seemed to be motivated by what they can do TO and get FROM their country. After testifying truthfully abut Trump's abuse of power and of office, Trump retaliated against Vindman, forcing him out of the Army after nearly 22 years of service. Nevertheless, LTC Vindman authored a column in the Washington Post expressing his gratitude to the United States for giving he and his family safe haven from the Soviet Union's oppression and authoritarianism. By contrast, Jared Kushner is installed by his father-in-law to head-up a federal task force to come up with a plan to deal with the national testing crisis. As reported in Vanity Fair, when Kushner believes the virus is hitting blue states harder than red states, the plans for a national testing program mysteriously disappeared - or "goes poof", as the Vanity Fair piece states. Come January, criminal investigations will be needed to hold Kushner and company accountable for this unimaginable abuse.

It seems from reports that Donald and Jared fucked up testing in an effort to harm the blue states, which is why the red states are getting fucked, Donald somehow or another thought it would be just a blue state problem. Jared has a date with the house hot seat over testing, he was a government employee in charge of it. IQ 78 strikes again, an intelligent psycho would have thought better.
