So NOW the CDC releases guidelines for ‘reopening (sacrificing) the country.’

This Administration is throwing people away for the sake of Trumps vanity.

Remember the whole “MASK/No Mask” back forth most of y’all had with Bo?

This Administration had information and only sowed confusion when they should have been uniting the people.

Then when they saw WHO was getting wiped away well...

But as I’ve been saying in here for weeks there is a prairie fire raging and the heartland ain’t ready.

If you are religiously observant pray for lives of our fellow citizens here and around the world, and pray for the souls of those who don’t give a fuck about them or the rest of us

This shit is going to be bad...

Much of the so-called ills of marijuana and cocaine use are misinformation designed to keep public opinion against these drugs.  In fact in the US it was, and probably still is, illegal to study marijuana's effects, because they didn't want the risks minimized and the medical benefits touted by scientific studies.  That is, a lot of the harm talk is just war on drugs propaganda.  As with coronavirus, medical and health officials shouldn't lie to the populace.

I believe alcohol is much more dangerous and deleterious than marijuana.  And drug prohibition has been just as unsuccessful and harmful and corrupting as Alcohol Prohibition was.  It's way beyond time to try a new approach.  Much of the harm from drugs is the very fact that they have been made illegal, so that the dosages and strength are wildly divergent, the price artificially inflated, police corruption, criminalization over treatment, etc.  Just tax and regulate.  Lots of prescription/legal drugs are abused too.

50 years of a war on your own citizens and the drug supply has never been dented.  A massive waste and scam.

MY best guess is that our last 3 presidents have all used cocaine.  Obama admitted such.  W Bush was long suspected, but never acknowledged.  Trump was certainly around cocaine in 70's and 80's rich people's NYC, probably with his child rapist buddy Epstein.  It's pretty much just assumed that most politicians and Americans have smoked marijuana.

Harry Anslinger was the guy who turned marijuana into a war on drugs immediately after the repeal of prohibition... he did it basically to keep a job and then hooked up with J Edgar Hoover and here we are. He sold the drug problem by saying it was bambu’s worst nightmare.
Large colored men bashing in his door to beat him and ravage the missus... while he watches.

If we’re going to be lunching anyone in this country, it should be McConnell appointees.

This wasn’t very nice,

http://slate.com/culture/2020/06/melania-trump-book-art-of-her-deal-biography-review.html

I thought it was overall a pretty positive treatment of her, rather than reducing her to a pitiable shell totally dependent upon her husband.

Not an attractive treatment, but I don't know how one would get that.

Michelle, Lujan-Grissom, Rice, Harris in that order.

If trump were for law and order he would turn himself in

Trump is for pancakes.

To trump Biden's VP gambit, he's considering dropping Pence for Mrs. Butterworth.

I figure that if Biden take Ms. Rice that Trump shifts to Condi Rice!

RICE is smarter than Harris.

Booker is still likely the best choice aside from Michelle.


The GOP want Susan Rice so bad they can taste the BENGHAZI...

EPA needs to change its name until Trump and his lackeys are out of office.
