1950's style chauvinism used to justify corruption. Your "president" of the United States of America:

"I'd rather have [Pompeo] on the phone with some world leader than have him wash dishes because maybe his wife isn't there."

You think Mike should wash dishes?  Is that your point?
No, if he needs someone to wash dishes he should hire and pay someone to do it. Not steal a government employee's labor. Or walk your own fucking dog.

Has nothing to do with what Needs said

Health care workers ARE in fact taking HCQ as a deterrent to CV-19 (many have reported that this is not occurring - including the OTHER GUPTA on MSNBC this morning)

Interesting that any signed up.  What ARRRRRRE THEY THINKING?

Please post the "anecdotal" information when one of them in this study gets gravely ill.

Yank, the guy kiid is hyping is also a climate change denier.



Not hyping any "guy", LB.

But I think France did err, yes.

Maybe dead French aren't as important to you as dead American negro.

Quote
Steven Mnuchin: No one should give their lives to increase the GDP
From CNN Business' David Goldman

In a testy exchange between Ranking Member Sherrod Brown of Ohio and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, Brown asked why the Trump administration is so eager to send employees back to work during uncertain times.

"How many workers should give their lives to increase the GDP ... or the Dow by 1,000 points?" Brown, a Democrat, asked.

"No workers should give their lives to do that, Senator, and I think your characterization is unfair," Mnuchin said.

Mnuchin, however, said the US economy risks "permanent damage" if it does not reopen soon, and businesses must bring people back to work "in a safe way."

The debate about when to reopen the economy is central in US policy, and it's being laid bare in today's hearing.

Where is your anecdotal evidence that "health care workers ARE"?  In fact.

We are 9th in most cases per million out of the 103 countries with more than 1,000 total cases.

We are also 9th in most deaths per million.

However, we are only 27th in most tests per million.

"We lead the world in testing," if you count total tests, like we do in cases and deaths.

Surely a case where HCQ "cured" a patient....
There is no scientific proof that this has happened. But...

No, it is on his point, in contrast to your misstatement of it. You seem to be deliberately drifting into Red's ntellectual dishonesty territory. Careful; he might sue you for trademark infringement.

Republican crooks who lost their elections but found a corrupt path to power anyway are finding more interesting things to do with their time instead of protecting the heath, safety or livelihoods of their constituent employers.

http://www.vox.com/2020/5/19/21262376/georgia-republicans-cancel-election-state-supreme-court-barrow-kemp-blackwell

If only there were some way to conducting an election without so much person to person contact.

If anyone ever figures that out, they should mail a clue to the Georgia statehouse. They’ll need to use small words and a large font. They’ll need to include plenty of colorful illustrations.
