UK says Boris Johnson has tested positive for the coronavirus.
Lots of questions in Boris’s Twitter feed about how he managed to get tested when frontline workers for Britain’s National Health Service haven’t.

“We could develop tests that are fast, reliable, and ubiquitous. If we screen everyone, and do so regularly, we can let most people return to a more normal life...If we can be assured that the people who congregate aren’t infectious, they can socialize.”
“We can build health-care facilities that do rapid screening and care for people who are infected, apart from those who are not. This will prevent transmission from one sick person to another in hospitals and other health-care facilities.”

“Did we get good advice from the president of the United States for the first 12 weeks? No. All we got were lies...Speaking as a public health person, this is the most irresponsible act of an elected official that I've ever witnessed.” wired.com/story/coronavi…
“Trump pushed out the admiral on the National Security Council, who was the only person at that level responsible for pandemic defense. With him went his entire downline of employees and staff and relationships. And then Trump removed the [early warning] funding for countries.”
BRIGHT SIDE: “I firmly believe that the steps that we're taking will extend the time that it takes for the virus to make the rounds...This is not a zombie apocalypse. It's not a mass extinction event.”

The Senate plans to vote today on a $2 trillion stimulus package that is designed to flood the U.S. economy with money.

The chamber reconvenes at midday and a vote could come shortly after that. Here's a look at what's in the bill: wapo.st/2JfulaQ
The legislation would send $1,200 checks to many Americans, create a $367 billion loan program for small businesses and establish a $500 billion lending fund for industries, cities and states. wapo.st/2JfulaQ
The legislation ensures that these taxpayer-backed loans cannot go to firms owned by President Trump, other White House officials, or members of Congress. wapo.st/2JfulaQ

What have we heard for the last three + years from the #Democrats

We can't have foreign countries interfering in our elections

If you look back through history, election interference has been happening in some way, shape or form since the 1940's

In other words...

Since the birth of the C_A

The US government has a LONG, documented history of meddling in foreign governments

Didn't matter if regimes and leaders leaned left or right, if policies weren't favorable for the US, our government would intervene to influence them...
#FactsMatter
Monetary and military aid were preferred methods, but influencing uprisings, and even participating in assassinations weren't out of the question

Between 1948 and 1974 the US intervened in the political climate of 8 different countries, and in some cases, multiple times

Following the initial reports from China – and anticipating multiple agency aspects of U.S. government would need a unified command structure – on January 30th President Trump assembled a unified task force to coordinate all response efforts across the totality of government.
The task force is coordinated through the National Security Council. It is composed of subject matter experts from White House and several United States Government agencies, and it includes some of the Nation’s foremost experts on infectious diseases.

One viral image being shared on social media used a bit of reverse psychology, asking what Americans would think if the details of this story involved the #tRump family rather than the #Biden family. #GreatWhiteHunter

A viral image being shared on social media uses reverse psychology, asking what Americans would think if the details of this story involved the #tRump family with its #GreatWhiteHunter sons rather than the #Biden family with its "great white" son, Hunter.
politifact.com/truth-o-meter/…
#HunterBiden was a senior VP for financial services giant #MBNA — an arrangement that drew criticism during the 2008 elections for potential conflict of interests.
As senator, #JoeBiden spearheaded legislation that would have affected MBNA’s business. cnbc.com/2014/05/13/bid… #DNC
