    Welp, it finally happened. I snapped in public today. I went into work for a bit this morning because I’m trying to figure out the safest way to host physicians we are recruiting given our CV-19 sit

  • I don't really know what to say anymore tbh. What happened last night is hard to put into words for anyone who hasn't worked in a hospital healthcare setting. Just unreal. Everyone is getting fucked.

It was part of a dismantling of social services to help balance out the 2.3 + trillion dollar corporate welfare to billionaires that was the 2017 tax reform. 

So now that we're all fucked we can take solace in the fact that billionaires got to add a few hundred million dollars to their pockets at our expense

The States have genuinely given up on waiting for the Feds and are taking this thing by the horns. 

About fucking time.

I love the "Only 5 people have actually tested positive to this point"

Okay - I am drawing a line in the sand. Any political posters will have their content moderated for a week. That means we approve your posts everywhere before they go live. I am busy as fuck and that basically means you will have a 5-8 hour delay on your responses.

If I had to guess, it would be because that particular "unit" was very "international."  Like NATO, UN, WHO.

It looks like it's really Bolton's fault.  So maybe it wasn't sufficiently belligerent.  Goddamn pacifists.

I haven't heard anything but to be fair I would probably ignore it if I did. His last tweet was 3/10 about an MS-13 gang member arrested near Alpine, TX.

Can the intelligent, productive posters agree to post all news here?  This thread could become the place to discuss all coronavirus news, including politics (instead of the thread for specifically-political aspects of the pandemic).  It’s getting old switching back and forth between boards anyway.

They are going to follow their God’s lead. Which is to say, no lead at all.

nevermind that even if only refer to events using the titles of the people involved, and citing the actual concrete decisions being made on OUR behalf, to reflect on how it may impact health outcomes across the country - YOU'LL STILL GET BITCHED AT FOR BEING POLITICAL! They just want their fucking safe space

That's the way I view these things. I figure the Daily Texan thread is "All news about it except NO POLITICS ALLOWED" while the Cloak Room version is "All news about it" when major current events are in process.

Agree.  I mean I get the original guidance of not posting actual names of politicians, but people are angry and you just can't have a discussion about it without talking about government response or non-response at whatever level.

Fine.  Let them have it.  All of us who don’t mind discussing the politics of it should just move the conversation over here.  Who cares if the DT thread becomes a vehicle for Hannity propaganda?

Jared is assigned the grift calculus: how Trump and his allies can personally benefit from the pandemic. Believe it.

Page counts on the two threads implies that yours has been the minority view up to this point.  But we’d all be better off adopting your approach.

The smartest thing he's ever done is start posting 10 minute videos instead of text/graphics links that can be read, digested, refuted, and shown to be complete idiocy all within 3 minutes. I don't have any desire to watch 10 minutes of idiocy in order to tear it apart.

I would at some point like to know the full story on CV tests.

I have pretty high confidence in our domestic biotech industry to respond to demand for such a test, quickly and accurately.  Even if there is no or a reduced profit motive, there is sufficient "hero" or PR factor that even the grimiest pimps of pharma should respond with alacrity (well not Shkreli obviously, but his ilk are not the ones with the capability).

Unless the industry isn't given what is needed (viral material, data from abroad).  Or is somehow precluded from developing tests.

This is a real wtf to me.

Isn't the most logical thing to do now is just to go on TV and say we've fucked this up so far, but from here on out there's a blank check for public health, and we're going to do whatever it takes to get ahead of it. If we need to roll out Army field hospitals, we will do it., need to deploy the Corps and CB's to build stuff, we'll do it, etc.
