If the GOP and followers weren’t evil bastards engaged in countless criminal acts, they’d be less terrified of the electorate and would be doing less work to terrorize the electorate.

Unfortunately they are, so they are, and they are.

It’s open season on the GOP for so many reasons, not the least of all this, which Ward won’t believe and Kiid will reflexively slime with his poxy lizard dick that is identical to his face (masks are good for you Kiid. Everyone is saying so).

More on the morons in Florida,

More than 600 doctors signed onto a letter sent to President Trump Tuesday pushing him to end the "national shutdown" aimed at slowing the spread of the coronavirus, calling the widespread state orders keeping businesses closed and kids home from school a "mass casualty incident" with "exponentially growing health consequences."

The millions of casualties of a continued shutdown will be hiding in plain sight, but they will be called alcoholism, homelessness, suicide, heart attack, stroke, or kidney failure. In youths it will be called financial instability, unemployment, despair, drug addiction, unplanned pregnancies, poverty, and abuse.

Because the harm is diffuse, there are those who hold that it does not exist. We, the undersigned, know otherwise."

Oh look! Red AND Faux News are pretending to care about the effects of public policy on the lives and health of.people. I guess I missed them discussing this aspect of the debate over.extending Covid unemployment benefits! Or taking away benefits for those who don't want to endanger themselves or families or communities by returning to work during a pandemic. Or taking away the health care from millions. Or.God.forbid advocate for social programs to deal with those issues - which take lives regardless of any pandemic or stay at home orders, to the deafening silence of Red, kiid, Faux News, Trump, the Republican party or all those MAGA doctors.

Fuck the poor unless it benefits the rich, right Red?

Its curious that when a thousand law professors signed on to a letter calling Trump's actions in Ukraine impeachable, REDSTATEWARD showed no interest.

A Doctor a Day has not yet formally launched but sent the letter, with hundreds of signatures from physicians nationwide, to the White House on Tuesday. Gold and the group's co-founder, Barke, said they began the organization to advocate for patients against the government-imposed coronavirus shutdowns by elevating the voices of doctors who felt that the negative externalities of the shutdowns outweigh the potential downside of letting people resume their normal business.

To gather signatures for the letter, Gold and Barke partnered with the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS), a doctors' group that advocates for less government interference in the relationship between doctors and patients, and notably has taken part in legal challenges against the Affordable Care Act and advocated to allow doctors to use hydroxychloroquine on themselves and their patients.


Sounds like an impartial not-at-all political group of doctors...

Science update on Covid-19( # 291)!!!


For those of you still wiping down groceries and other packages amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, breathe a sigh of relief: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) now says the novel virus “does not spread easily” from "touching surfaces or objects" — but experts warn that doesn’t mean it’s no longer necessary to take "practical and realistic" precautions in stopping the spread of COVID-19.

More than 800,000 physicians across the country signed a letter urging President Donald Trump to keep social distancing practices in place after he said he wants to reopen businesses by Easter.

This is almost two months old, though, so its possible some of these doctors have changed their minds.  They may have joined that anti-ACA group.  Who knows.

News Item-SCOTUS


WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court blocked Congress from receiving grand-jury materials from Robert Mueller’s investigation of Russia’s interference in the 2016 election.
The court, in a written order Wednesday, granted an emergency request by the Trump administration to keep the materials secret while it mounts a full high court appeal against their release.
The high court’s action increases the chances that the information will remain shielded through the 2020 election.

For those of you still wiping down groceries and other packages amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, breathe a sigh of relief; The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) now says the novel virus “does not spread easily” from "touching surfaces or objects" 

Important word left out of the quote above:

According to the CDC, the virus can spread if a person is in close contact with someone else, and when someone with the infection coughs, sneezes, or talks causing droplets to land in another persons mouth or nose.

The virus can be spread in other ways, but not as easily. That includes touching surfaces or objects[/b], or from animals to people and vice versa.


So in other words, easier to get via someone coughing near you, but still possible to get from surfaces.

The CDC advises you to continue to practice social distancing, wash your hands, and routinely disinfect surfaces.

So you can breathe a sigh of relief if you are wiping down groceries, but the CDC recommends you continue to wipe down groceries...

Yeah, that's a real fucking about-face.

Impeachment was not a hoax.
Neither was Senate acquittal.

Red is proud of his criminal organization and the coward senators burning the country down to make it possible.

A traitor imposter in the White House has made a traitor imposter out of one of his followers.

Sad.
