How do we know that the folks who flocked to Miami Beach were inconsiderate assholes?

Former acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe admitted in 2017 testimony released Thursday that the FBI was unable to “prove the accuracy” of the so-called Steele dossier, which was famously used to obtain surveillance warrants for former Trump campaign aide Carter Page.

Old news and misrepresented here.

Poor Ward has nothing to talk about but the past because Trump's present is so painful to watch, let alone discuss.

And even then, he has to rely on made up shit.

[josh]

A lot of people have been asking me what it's like being on the COVID wards in the hospital, so I figured I'd share what a typical day looks like for me:

6am - Wake up. Roll off of my pile of money that Big Pharma gave me. Softly weep as it doesn’t put a dent in my medical school loans

6:30am - Make breakfast, using only foods from the diet that gives me everlasting life by avoiding all fats, sugars, carbs, and proteins. For details buy my book and check out my shop.

7am - Get to work, load up my syringes with coronavirus before rounds.

8am - See my patients for the day. Administer the medications that the government tells me to. Covertly rub essential oils on the ones I want to get better.

9:30am - Call Bill Gates to check how 5G tower construction is going, hoping for more coronavirus soon. He tells me they’re delayed due to repairs on the towers used to spread the Black Plague. Curse the fact that this is the most efficient way to spread infectious diseases.

10am - One patient tells me he knows “the truth” about coronavirus. I give him a Tdap booster. He becomes autistic in front of my eyes. He’ll never conspire against me again.

11am - Tend to the secret hospital garden of St. John’s wort and ginkgo leaves that we save for rich patients and donors.

12:30pm - Pick up my briefcase of money from payroll, my gift from Pfizer for the incomprehensible profits we make off of the free influenza vaccine given every year.

1pm - Conference call with Dr. Fauci and the lab in Wuhan responsible for manufacturing viruses. Tell them my idea about how an apocalypse-style zombie virus would be a cool one to try for the next batch.

2pm - A patient starts asking me about getting rid of toxins. I ask her if she has a liver and kidneys. She tells me she knows “the truth” about Big Anatomy and that the only way to detoxify herself is to eat nothing but lemon wedges and mayonnaise for weeks. I give her a Tdap booster.

2:45pm - Help the FBI, CIA, and CDC silence the masses. Lament the fact that I can only infringe on one or two of their rights. Oh well, there’s always tomorrow.

4pm - One of my rich patients begins to crash. Laugh as I realize I’ve mismatched her spirit animal and zodiac moon sign. I switch out the Purple Amethyst above her bed for a Tiger’s Eye geode. She stabilizes. I throw some ginkgo leaves on her for good measure

6pm - Go onto YouTube and see coronavirus conspiracy videos everywhere. Curse my all powerful government for how inept they are at keeping people from spreading “the truth”

6:10pm - Go onto Amazon and see that a book about “the truth” is the #1 seller this week. Question the power of my all powerful government. Make a reminder to myself to get more Tdap boosters from the Surgeon General next time we talk.

7pm - Time to go home. Before I leave, sacrifice a goat to Dr. Fauci and say three Hippocratic Oaths.

9pm - Take a contented sigh as I snuggle under the covers made of the tinfoil hats of my enemies, realizing that my 4 years of medical school and 3 years of residency training have been put to good use today.

What was made up?

[kiidcarter8]

Because you don't give a damn about anybody but yourself and you lie to yourself about the poor and the vulnerable.



Certainly don't give a shit about you.  You haven't earned it.

Ward, you sweet dear, bless your poor heart.

You are presenting evidence of obstruction as some kind of exoneration when in fact it is simply further evidence of guilt.

We’re done with the puppet. Even in his Adderall addled dotage, trump is starting to catch on to this himself. That means you are allowed to catch up too.

[kiidcarter8]

It doesn't explain why you pretend to believe his lies.


It's not my job to post here what I agree and disagree with re:  the President's quotes.   Thus my not posting disagreement is not putting a stamp of approval on it.

My approval is of Trump's policies/handling of the nation's issues and his ability to bring good people together and manage other personalities.  His crassness/general persona is something I am willing to deal with.

[facilitatorn]

It definitely brought the leaders of this factory together.

They are right where the rest of the nation is, with no time for useless baggage like trump who endangers everyone around him through a uniquely foul combination of malevolence and stupidity.

---Coronavirus is ravaging the White House and it's too late for anyone to learn from it---

Insane to move about without a mask.

And that's one of the major differences between us.

When I thought somebody here whom I disliked was suicidal, I looked for a way to help that one.

I don't need people to earn being cared about, Kid. If bad shit were happening to you, I would care and want to help. Or Bambi or Ward or whomever.

And it's why I rage against the mistreatment of people I have never met - and why you think my rage is dumb. You don't give a fuck for anybody who hasn't "earned it," in your oh so precious measurement of human worth.

Money is more important. Convenience is more important.

We get it.

And I would still try to help you. Because you are a human being.

Silence is assent.

And your definition of "good people" is even more broken than your standards for deciding who is "worthy" of your giving a fuck.

Still waiting for peace in the Middle East, eliminating the deficit and national debt, and so many other commitments he made that will never come to pass that it wouldn't have been believable in a B grade science fiction movie.

Americans "should all be able to get a test right now," Trump also said, forcing an official to later clarify Trump meant "everybody who needs a test can get a test." That's also a questionable assertion, but there is one place where coronavirus tests are plentiful: the White House.

~The Week

Sometimes the lies are so bad that there is just plain no fix for them.

How about, "Every American I want to have a test can have one?" I think Trump could say that and have it be true.

The way you speak about not liking how Trump addresses people -

you do that here.

That is all I mean about not earning it.  Has nothing to do with disagreement on issues.

Maybe you don't realize you are doing it - and defending people who do it.  That's fine.
