It'll be interesting to see if Senators Feinstein (D) and Burr (R) are prosecuted for insider trading wrt to coronavirus knowledge....

Amended timeline:

Feb 13 Senator Burr unloads $1.7 million in stock.

Feb 22 Trump falsely claims ' We’re going very substantially down, not up.'

Feinstein managed to bluster through having a Chinese government spy on her staff quite well - she'll likely brush this off too.

Joe Biden's coronavirus web address lands on a donation page for his campaign.

He knew. He knew, and rather than perturb the stock markets, he chose instead to spread complacent lies.

We pretty much shut it down coming in from China. We have a tremendous relationship with China, which is a very positive thing

Trump. Jan 31.

A lie, or a mistake? Which is worse?

Not impossible to imagine that if there was a briefing about an existential threat to the population of the USA - that the spooks would've leaked it to their media mouthpieces to add to Trumps troubles + woes at the time - is it? The dilution of Oval Office effort wrt "impeachment" (remember that?) would've been worth it ....

In truth the gates should've been unequivocally slammed comprehensively shut on China in January. If the spooks were on their game then they would know that unpleasant bugs from China recur and that the immediate neighbours are the canary in the coalmine. If you want to play this game Phil - then you should be able to regale us all with what did they know and when did they know it?

The accusation is likely to mutate and grow legs - if the spooks had any conviction and guts they would've put the briefing document about imminent apocalypse into the public domain via say erm... Wikileaks - but they haven't and didn't.

This variety of TDS has about as much going for it as a bog roll bandit in Tescos.

Mistakes have been made and we are *all* paying the price. In the second decade of the 21st Century everywhere is now next door thanks to air travel.

January 14, 2020 - Pelosi agrees to deliver Articles of Impeachment to Senate.

January 14, 2020 - House appoints Impeachment managers.

January 22, 2020 - Reports of a deadly new virus.

January 22 - February 4, 2020 - Impeachment Debate.

January 31 - Trump bans travel from China

Feb 5, 2020 - Senate Votes to acquit.

perhaps Phil might regale us with a listing of suggestions from Pelosi, Schiff, Schumer, AOC, Bernie, Biden, Swalwell, Mrs. Clinton and Obamah himself.... ?

What is the latest estimate of the cost of the Democrats New Green Deal?

Obviously they will demand that the US also pays the full $100bn per annum for the Paris Agreement, as no other Country is going to be stupid enough to contribute towards the Hockey Teamster Pension Fund.

Unprecedented levels of Green stupidity by US Democrats.

When will politicians learn how toxic the Green Blob are?

Mar 22, 2020 at 6:58 PM | Unregistered Commentergolf charlie

The therapeutic, toxic and lethal doses are extremely close […]. Therefore the margin of safety is low; 20mg/kg is a toxic dose (twice the therapeutic dose in children) and 40mg/kg is usually lethal.

In countries where its widely used, chloroquine and alcohol is a common choice for suicides. Obviously, those receiving the drug under supervision will be carefully monitored, but there'll be nutters getting it off the internet, and apparently it is present in fishtank cleaner.. Just wierd.

Fish "tank cleaner" is over-egging it ... You've a bunch of exotic, expensive fish which are swimming in their own poo in a limited, shared environment which needs considerable management to maintain your investment (I prefer a screensaver - but hey-ho)

here and here

- so if you're suffering from white body slime, collapsed fins, itching, parasitic protozoan, oodinium, cryptocaryon - it might make the difference....

Some testing *has* been done (In France aiui) and the take-away (untainted by any interference from DJT) is that in the absence of a regulated specificity to a particular condition, the use of quinine in tandem with azithromycin should be trialed on COVID-19 Wuhan coronavirus in vivo.

Laura Ingraham covers it here

As it stands there are few if any options and existing, licensed products (as in this case) which show activity against the coronavirus must be deployed.... there is quite a bit to lose and much to gain.

I think that "Trumps says take poisonous fishtank cleaner" is both deeply ignorant and poisonous in itself - but then again like the goldfish in a bowl that is constant surprised by the miniature lighthouse - TDS has its own logic.

Fish Tank algicides have been used as murder weapons before:
https://murderpedia.org/female.N/n/nickell-stella.htm
"In the months that followed, two more bottles of Excedrin Extra-Strength Capsules that were recalled from stores in Auburn and Kent, Washington were also found to contain cyanide. All five bottles were taken to the FBI crime lab in Washington, D.C., and examined by Roger Martz for fingerprints and other evidence that might connect the victims to their killer. During Martz's investigation of the bottles, he made an unusual discovery."

" CBSNews.com reported Martz found each tainted capsule contained minute specks of a green crystal-like substance. Martz was able to link the tiny green crystals with algaecides used in aquariums and fishponds. Moreover, he was able to pinpoint the exact brand of algaecide found in all the capsules, which was known as Algae Destroyer. The murderer could have used a container that once held the Algae Destroyer to mix the cyanide before it was eventually introduced into the capsules. Martz's connections proved to be one of the most critical pieces of evidence in the on-going investigation."

Climate Science continues to be harmful to politicians. That is why Trump ignores it, but Democrats and the EU try to force feed it, and make the Electorate pay

Pelosi might look a bit better if she'd prepared a point by point presentation of why she's blocking coronavirus action in the USA.

Somebody should hide all her denture glue.

More at Politico

Maxine Waters has a plan .... no doubt.

She wants to destroy US jobs and the economy, and give any money left to Hockey Teamsters? It is a particularly cunning plan and US Democrat voters are sure to be inspired to vote for someone else.

Anyone who criticises Trump is deranged and Nancy Pelosi has funny teeth.

Don, did you do your homework?

No, Miss, but nor did Bernie or Joe so its OK.

Do I have to remind you that you are meant to be class captain?

Mar 22, 2020 at 10:49 PM | Unregistered CommenterPhil Clarke

People who view simply anything and everything through the lens of Trump Derangement Syndrome are a hamper short of a picnic. The fish tank cleaner thing was pathetic.

Nancy Pelosi's teeth aren't amusing - but you'd think she'd employ a butler type person to make sure they're glued in before going on camera - she spends enough on wardrobe, slap and coiffure - she can afford it.

There's no heirarchy around here afaics

Trump:

But I'm a little upset with China, I'll be honest with you. They should have told us about this. They didn't want us sending people in out of pride

... and yet I'm seeing claims that Trump was briefed on this by the CIA and that China passed a warning through diplomatic channels.

The CIA could usefully have a leak and the CCP could do likewise....

..... crickets.
