    It's kinda mind wobbling that there even can be partisan supreme court judges. Shouldn't judges who uphold the law always come to the same conclusion if they think long and hard enough about a case?

    If you just look into the rough history of US court rulings, the answer is no. Besides political nonsense, another primary source of contention is the status of the constitution. Is it living or not? That instantly creates an insane bias between progressive and conservative rulings.

    It didn't go well. So they closed. So far, no big surprises.

    Still could fall under religious discussion. There's been issues before when scriptures from at least two different Holy Books were brought up to show the similarities.

    Fauci goes on live TV and says it would be a "false statement" to say we have the coronavirus under control.

    I mean...do I even need to quote Trump again? You all heard him.

    "But Breccia! Surely it was under control when Trump said it!"

    ...seriously?

    I stand by my opinion, that he needs to take the microphone from donnyboy when he is saying things like that. It is dangerous to the public.

    Saying afterwards with him not in the room is easy in my opinion, why is everyone walking on eggshells, he doesn't respect the presidency why should anyone else?

    The St. Louis Fed also went on live TV, saying another relief bill might not be required.

    I think you've got the right amount of resources. The challenge is how are you gonna get that to the right people
    "Hey Breccia, did he say anything else?"

    the economy was actually doing quite well going into this health situation
    "Hmm, interesting. Tell me, how many times did the Fed cut rates in 2019?"

    Three.

    ILlinois governor takes Trump to task on the coronavirus issue.

    White House adviser Jared Kushner argued at a press briefing last week that the "notion of the federal stockpile was it’s supposed to be our stockpile; it’s not supposed to be state stockpiles that they then use."

    Trump defended Kushner's comments and said that state governments should have been building their own stockpiles and that the federal government is not "an ordering clerk for the states."

    The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' website was later edited to match Kushner's comments. Language that suggested that state governments can access the stockpile to support their response efforts was erased.

    "If he were right, why would we ever need a Federal Emergency Management Agency?" Pritzker said. "It's because individual states can't possibly do what the federal government can do. We don't have a Defense Production Act."

    "There's no way that we could stockpile in anticipation of a pandemic that no one anticipated, and yet the federal government is responsible for doing precisely that," he added.

    February 28 - Trump called the coronavirus a "democratic hoax".

    Was there an order out from Trump at that time to start taking precautions?

    You're really bad at this.

    basically he didn't say shit.

    just danced around actual facts of what he is going to do to everyone that works for him and deflected to God.

    this is a textbook definition of a self preserving cunt.

    God forbid (lol), he takes on some debt, effecting future profits to help the less fortunate....I wonder what they did with all those profits.

    Oh wait they are PRIVATE, we can't see what they did with all those profits. What a shocker huh??



    Someone might want to remind him....."And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."

    Guess he must be one of those who thinks tithing is optional.

    Jesus in a MAGA hat . . .

    Certainty the man who preached love and empathy would totally root for a megalomaniac moron who's cheated on all of his wives, paid hush money to porn stars, demanded the death penalty of innocent black teenagers, cheated contractors of their money, lied to the American people 20,000 times in 4 years, spread a racist conspiracy about Obama's birth certificate, pals around with the likes of Putin and Kim Jong Il . . .

    Yeah, Donald Trump is TOTALLY the man Jesus would be rooting for.

    Like how the other day when he was stating he wouldn't wear a mask because he would be seeing prime-ministers, Kings, Queens and Dictators. Very few people would be pleased to meet dictators than again his intend is to become one so there's that.

    They won't even do that, they'll simply make up things Obama did because apparently he is a magical anti-christ who can bend space and time do all sort of things before and after his term.

    Ah the life of brian, Still hoping more Monthy Python gets added to Netflix.


    First time i watched that movie was in catechism class of all places, teacher was fairly open minded found it important to laugh at parts of religion. Good man.
