  1. Caught part of news that TC will be at New Era Field instead of Rochester ? Must have been a safety suggestion
  2. I'm a fan of Murph not Tasker . I would prefer Brown work with Sal C. instead of Glab
  3. Former White House butler who served 11 presidents dies after contracting coronavirus Wilson Roosevelt Jerman, a former White House butler who worked under 11 US Presidents, has died after contracting coronavirus. He was 91 years old. The long-serving employee began working in the White House in 1957 under then-President Dwight D. Eisenhower as a cleaner. He was promoted to butler under former President John F. Kennedy, a move that was orchestrated by former first lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/21/politics/wilson-roosevelt-jerman-trnd/index.html
  4. If Trump doesn’t wear mask at Michigan auto plant, he'll be asked not to return, state official says Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel is calling on President Trump to wear a mask ahead of his visit to a Ford manufacturing plant in the state today. “If he fails to wear a mask, he's going to be asked not to return to any enclosed facility inside our state,” Nessel said. “…If we know he's coming to our state, and we know he's not going to follow the law, I think we're going to have to take action against any company or any facility that allows him inside those facilities and puts our workers at risk. We just simply can't afford it here in our state.” https://www.cnn.com/us/live-news/us-coronavirus-update-05-21-20/index.html
  5. what a tie in Pelosi says Trump steps in ‘doggy doo’ with conspiracy theory about Joe Scarborough “He comes in with doggy-doo on his shoes and everybody who works with him has that on their shoes, too,” Pelosi said in her weekly news conference. Trump, stung by Scarborough’s critical coverage, has repeatedly suggested there was something fishy about the 2001 death of an intern who worked for Scarborough. The current anchor of “Morning Joe” was a Republican U.S. representative from Florida at the time of the intern’s death. Authorities ruled Lori Klausutis, 28, died after she passed out due to an undiagnosed heart condition and hit her head on a desk. Trump calls the death a “cold case” and has called on police to probe Scarborough, without providing any evidence to tie him to the death. https://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/ny-pelosi-trump-doggy-doo-morning-joe-scarborough-20200520-ochtmqbuz5coxg6koloa4enzee-story.html
  6. Trump brags about not paying taxes: ‘That makes me smart’ “The only years that anybody’s ever seen were a couple of years when he had to turn them over to state authorities when he was trying to get a casino license, and they showed he didn’t pay any federal income tax,” Clinton said. https://www.cnbc.com/2016/09/26/trump-brags-about-not-paying-taxes-that-makes-me-smart.html
  7. Why would countries want to destroy there economies on purpose ?
  8. Are the other countries in the world over counting 323K deaths so far ? I guess everyone could count like China does and get back to normal again.
  9. I'm not talking about elderly voters but the elderly workers who run the polling sites.
  10. The problem is if covid 19 is a major problem in NOV , the elderly voter workers will stay home like the Wisconsin primary.
  11. In mid-January, Chinese consulates in Canada and worldwide issued an urgent call. China was concerned that the new coronavirus raging in Wuhan was so deadly and infectious that its nurses and doctors would run out of safety supplies. It needed personal protective equipment (PPE). In just six weeks, China imported 2.5 billion pieces of epidemic safety equipment, including over two billion safety masks, Chinese government data shows. And this raises big concerns on a number of fronts, say critics, including Conservative MP Erin O’Toole. China was evidently hiding the extent of a pandemic that endangered the world while covertly securing PPE at low prices. This “surreptitious” operation left “the world naked with no supply of PPE,” Jorge Guajardo, Mexico’s former ambassador to Beijing, told Global News. The result: starting in March, after COVID-19 had circled the globe, countries that provided masks to China in January and February were forced to compete for China’s supply. “One source told me in January it became well-known amongst military and emergency services that China was stockpiling masks and basically buying out as many quantities as it could,” https://globalnews.ca/news/6858818/coronavirus-china-united-front-canada-protective-equipment-shortage/
  12. Affirmative action is a policy in which an individual's color, race, sex, religion or national origin are taken into account to increase opportunities provided to an underrepresented part of society.Oct 6, 2019 I'm ok with the Rooney rule , maybe some modification but change in draft position not in favor
  13. No fear at all , end the shutdown now.
  14. Trump's word not mine referring to demonstrations in 3 states , try to keep up.
  15. The shutdown of course , everyone back to work.
  16. Should the U.S. be liberated like Trump and his followers want? I'm already tired of listening to the whining , just do it , go for it.
  17. I would never vote for Biden or Trump . The DNC should have a brokered convention if they were smart. I still think it depends on the economy how people will vote.
  18. There are more serious accusations against Trump just saying. He said she said , just take a lie detector test .
  19. Is that worst then Trump committing adultery (Stormy Daniels) and the Access Hollywood tape ?
  20. In Nov it's all about the economy , covid 19 and the VP for Biden
  21. That is the tragedy for poor countries
  22. Do nursing homes in NY have enough PPE to protect residents ?
  23. I was under the impression truckers wanted to have part of stimulus package while economy is shutdown. They are losing big money even delivering food.
  24. Trump says honking truckers were showing him love. (They weren't.) https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2020/05/15/president-trump-truckers-protest-rose-garden-keilar-nr-vpx.cnn/video/playlists/this-week-in-politics/ Last week I saw a trucker interview talking about a DC protest. He said they were getting $.50 a mile instead of $2.00 a mile due to the economy shutdown, retail stores closed , restaurants , hotels.
