1- Why doesn’t @SavannahGuthrie report on this?

This is who China really is (thread).

ktla.com/sports/winter-…
2- Here is the actual “In your face” China is doing to the world.
3- This sounds like a rough case of COVID, doesn’t it?

But wait…
4- It has nothing to do with COVID symptoms.

It’s China treating COVID positive athletes as political prisoners.

Think about treating someone this way who is already ill. 🤬
5- Athletes / teams are starting to speak out. Not our team, of course, because @SpeakerPelosi advised them to shut up and dribble.

And not @nbc because they’re China’s mouthpiece.
6- This is who China really is. Ignore the grifters who sold their soul to convince you otherwise.

And #IOC - F*** you too for allowing all this.

1- Dear Republicans: If you want to win, versus Miss Congeniality to the end of time, follow & observe:

@JesseKellyDC
@GovRonDeSantis + @ChristinaPushaw
@RepThomasMassie
@realchrisrufo
@DrewHolden360
@TuckerCarlson
Good Trump (vs bad Trump)

Re Rufo this is masterful..👇
2- Also, though it pains me to say it, notice how Pelosi rarely plays defense or apologizes, even when she has a terrible hand.

Compare & contrast with @GOPLeader, who gets his daily talking points from corporate captured Frank Luntz’s polling data & focus groups.
3- Here’s the lessons I’ve gleaned.

-Play offense, not defense
-Never apologize
-Don’t let them frame the debate
-Mock then incessantly (they deserve it)
-Assume the Media is the enemy
-Assume the Left is as dumb as they appear, but also dangerously authoritarian

1- I’ve been drawn back to renewed fascination with the Bay of Pigs / Cuban Missile Crises.

I guess because in 1962 we nearly killed killed millions globally; whereas, in 2020 we (the human race) managed to do it (cont).
2- One of the weird similarities is how the the deep state managed to create a fiasco across an outgoing / incoming Administration. Almost as if that’s the optimal time to do crazy shit.
3- Another interesting parallel is that JFK campaigned on aggressively fighting communism, accusing Eisenhower / Nixon of being too soft on the USSR aka “Red Menace”.

Once he became president JFK was trapped by his own campaign rhetoric.

1- "To say I was ready or prepared for my test result to come back positive would be an understatement. It happened so quickly and I am thankful to be vaccinated and healthy."

This is a testament to mass PR and obedience if ever there was one (cont).

nsnews.com/coronavirus-co…
2- First of all, this doesn't sound like a mild cold.

It's a breakthrough case, of course. Image
3- "The vaccine was worse than the disease" may not be the message the author thought it was.

Also, she did everything right including "follow the pandemic orders". Yes, always follow orders. Because of course. Image

1- "The result could well encourage responsible Americans to get on with their lives while allowing recalcitrant vaccine refusers to face the consequences of their reckless conduct."

Sure @JRubinBlogger - Never mind people who over-eat, don't exercise, smoke & drink (cont).
2- The selective morality & excusing of all life-style choices except skepticism of dumping unproven drugs into your body aside...

... This is still an admisison that vaccine mandates are worthless.
3- In essence, this is "Let COVID spread, the sophisticated & unvaccinated crowd will be fine. The unclean hoosiers in Indiana, well so be it."

1- “At least three Labour frontbenchers including Rachel Reeves are among a string of MPs to have tested positive for Covid this week..”

Welp (cont).

theguardian.com/politics/2021/…
2- “Two more Labour MPs – Emma Hardy and Feryal Clark – are isolating, while two Tory MPs – Darren Henry and Dean Russell – also revealed they would be missing the debate and votes because they had tested positive. The SNP’s Douglas Chapman is also isolating.”

All is well.
3- “With so many absences, Peter Grant, an SNP MP, raised concerns about MPs continuing to crowd together through the lobbies in the House of Commons on Wednesday.”

Yeah, this might be … dumb.

1- "..the Heat only had 10 players available because of injuries and one COVID-19 case and the Bulls were down to 11 because of a larger COVID outbreak within the team."

This is becoming unsustainable (cont).

miamiherald.com/sports/nba/mia…
2- "Chicago coach Billy Donovan said Saturday, “We’ve got a lot of guys sitting at home with no symptoms right now.”

Maybe COVID isn't the problem. Maybe thinking crappy vaccines stop COVID is the problem. Maybe testing nonstop is the problem.
3- "Wing Caleb Martin is also asymptomatic, Spoelstra indicated, and will likely have to sit out until Dec. 21, even though he and every one of his teammates has their booster shots, in addition to being fully vaccinated."

Boosters @NBA virtually mandated didn't move the dial.
