    Mnuchin reverses course, won't force seniors to file tax return for coronavirus stimulus check

    Wait, is it taxable or not? I thought the bill spelled that out by describing what kind of money it was. Why was it an option? More importantly, why was not knowing an option?

    It was 912 yesterday and 1049 today.

    And apparently Dr. Fauci is receiving death threats.
    The doctor's guidance to Trump for the country to remain as locked down as possible to help control the virus spread has not earned fans among some fervent right-wing voices. The exact nature of the threats and where they emanated from remains unclear.

    That is because he is the target of a ton of conspiracy theories, like he created the virus so he could create a vaccine for it.

    Or that he's part of a Deep State conspiracy to take down Trump.

    Trump supporters are god damn insane.

    What exactly are they threatening him for? Even for unneeded anger this is pretty fucking stupid, and that's saying something.

    As listed above, apparently, some people think he's part of the Deep State. I'll let you guess who those people are.

    Here is one, if you really want to know it. Just think, the dumb bitch that pushed this conspiracy theory, Chanel Rion, was the same dumbass that went to Ukraine with Rudy Guiliani and said they were being stalked by the Ukrainian military. And to think, OANN has White House Press credentials.

    It says specifically that Fauci was one that helped create it in a North Carolina lab.

    Rubini has said that the novel coronavirus “was GENETICALLY ENGINEERED as a Bio-Weapon at the Univ. of North Carolina BSL-3 Lab.” He has also said that it was spread from North Carolina to China, Italy, and elsewhere in the United States by the “Deep State” in a plot “to destroy the Trump economy.” In addition, Rubini suggested that Dr. Anthony Fauci, the well-respected head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, personally funded the production of the virus, even calling him “Little Tony Fauci.”

    Fauci is talking about facts and reality something Trump supporters are very allergic to.

    Especially when the facts are bad for Trump.

    Yes the centre cannot hold for long, not a big fan of biblical doom and gloom though and essentially speaks of the second coming through the rebirth of something

    Guess i would have to look up when this was written but cannot be that old maybe 200 years at best.

    Doom and gloom seems apropos at the moment we have hurricane battering us and the captain of the ship is a blind moron.

    I first wanted to respond with why North Carolina but then I found the reddit page.
    God...you now if all of these deaths and disasters will result in internet company cleaning up there services then the damage caused by this virus may be worth it all.
    We are seeing first hand the danger when people consider outright lies and conspiracy theories as speech that needs to be protected and encouraged.

    Hate crime related to the Coronavirus, simply because they were Asian-Americans. He thought they were spreading the virus because he thought they were Chinese, because apparently this retarded racist thinks that is how it works. The guy that stabbed 3 people, was stopped by a Sam's Club associate, and was taken into custody by an off-duty border patrol agent. Charged with 3 counts of attempted capital murder, and assault with a deadly weapon. Now the FBI is investigating as to whether it was a "hate crime", though it seems with all evidence that it is.
