Well I guess next month is when we find out how compromised the SCOTUS is with Trump. Pretty scary.

Feb 21, 2020 is the date on the video, so it will be soon, I don't think it will go very well for Donald, they are probably reviewing the records or have a team doing so. They won't overturn layers of lower court decisions and historic precedent, no way, it will be a unanimous decision.

Trump will flip out! Unlike his government tax returns all these documents can be made public and they will contain his taxes, also public in this venue.
 
I was thinking that the networks and papers might be calling back many foreign correspondents and people who are used to covering dangerous war zones because of the coronavirus. These war correspondents might be a good choice to cover the Trump rallies, it's too hard on the lady reporters they usually send who cover domestic politics. You are dealing with lunatics and stressed out morons and it can get intense and dangerous, especially with crazy, desperate Trump whipping them up. War correspondents should cover the civil war from the confederate Trump side, a normal person needs strong nerves when surrounded by thousands of angry, excited morons and psychos. Besides when it's over they can go back overseas and the death threats won't mean much, unless Vlad has a hard on for them.

Why not, the base doesn't care, they are single issue voters and blind to all else.
 
Morons are as plentiful as ever, what a great way to catch the coronavirus, beat up someone you suspect has it! Jesus Christ!

(CNN)A 23-year-old Singapore man of Chinese ethnicity who was studying in London has spoken out about racism linked to the coronavirus after suffering facial injuries in a "racially aggravated assault."
Jonathan Mok wrote about his ordeal in a public post on Facebook Monday, detailing how he was attacked by a group of people on Oxford Street, a busy shopping area in the center of the British capital, at about 9.15 p.m. local time (4.15 p.m. ET) on February 24.
The attack comes at a time of increasing xenophobia against people of East Asian appearance in the UK and around the world.
"The guy who tried to kick me then said, 'I don't want your coronavirus in my country', before swinging another sucker punch at me, which resulted in my face exploding with blood (from my nose)," wrote Mok.

So two different research groups in two different countries come to the same conclusion and you dismiss it? Do you know the level 4 lab is less than a thousand feet from the market they claim as the source of the outbreak.

That is an extraordinary claim and it requires extraordinary evidence, it may be true, but it needs more investigation and it will get it. This might be considered an act of war by some, whether accidental or not, China would be on the hook for a fucking fortune in compensation if there was an expert scientific consensus on this. The fucking moron who ok'd this research in China would be shot as would the entire team. These are serious charges with a lot of pissed off people and countries involved, if true, it would be explosive, the implications would be profound and most likely legal in nature.

The closest match to the virus is in bats and the market was not selling any bats. The near by level 4 lab has already said it was working with bat viruses.

Like I said, a lot of folks and governments are gonna want answers, all the people in that lab had better "disappear" without a trace, their families too, if it's true and verified. They can read the RNA of these things and trace them through mutations and it's quite well developed. This will be a hot topic in certain scientific circles for sure, it might explain the reluctance of the government to admit the problem initially, the local lab might have tried to cover it up too, the doctors would have turned to them first for help.
 
Ya gotta love Donald sometimes (or more correctly, love watching him cut his own throat), he'd fuck up the Lord's prayer and it looks like he's working on the senate, I'm sure Mitch is simply fucking thrilled! I wonder if Roy Moore is gonna run too?

Trump slams Sessions, who is forced into runoff in Alabama GOP Senate primary

Alabama GOP Senate primary goes to runoff with Sessions and former Auburn football coach

(CNN)Former Attorney General Jeff Sessions will face former Auburn football coach Tommy Tuberville in a fierce Republican runoff election, CNN projects, pitting the man who held the seat for 20 years against a political neophyte.
The race is viewed as the Republicans' best opportunity to pick up a Senate seat in the country. The question over whether President Donald Trump would try to pick a Republican in the runoff was answered quickly, as Trump tweeted Wednesday morning that Sessions' inability to win outright was the result of not having "the wisdom or courage to stare down & end the phony Russia Witch Hunt."
Tuberville tweeted back, "Mr President I could not agree more, and in 27 days help will be on the way!"
The Alabama Republican primary did not swing on any particular policy, but on who was most aligned with Trump. Although the President remained quiet during the first phase of the primary race, he had publicly mocked and ultimately fired Sessions: Trump once said he would've nominated someone else for attorney general if he knew Sessions would recuse himself from overseeing the Department of Justice investigation into Russian interference of the 2016 election (Sessions served as a top official on the Trump campaign)
