not surprising...our toddler president doesn't want to share his toys with others. the idiot apparently told 3M to stop sending medical supplies to Canada so we can keep them all in the US. I get that toddlers aren't mentally able to understand possible consequences of their actions, but is there no one around to dumb it down for him? that the stupid tweets he fires off impulsively will come back around to make things worse for him?

he really is the worst. threatening a company for sending much needed supplies at a time like this is incomprehensible. I don't know if I can take 4 more years of this jackass.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Friday it would be a "mistake" for the U.S. to limit exports of medical supplies to Canada in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic.

His comments came hours after Minnesota manufacturing giant 3M said it has received a request from the Trump administration to stop exporting N95 respirators to Canada and Latin America as demand grows in the U.S.

 

 

On Thursday, the Trump administration invoked the Defense Production Act to demand more N95 respirators from 3M, and the White House has cited concerns that not enough of 3M’s global production is coming back to the U.S. In a tweet Thursday evening, U.S. President Donald Trump said the White House “hit 3M hard today after seeing what they were doing with their Masks” and said the company “will have a big price to pay!”

If we can't vote Trump out in seven months, then I at least hope Kentuckians will do the right thing and vote McConnell out and end his stranglehold on the Senate. That old putrid scab has been stifling progress before Trump even announced his bid for the presidency.

some serious covid-19 related talks going on here

The U.S. was beset by denial and dysfunction as the coronavirus raged

donnie quietly slipped in an executive order today that essentially gives the US the green light to start digging up the moon, or doing whatever else they want that will probably result in its eventual destruction. is there anything he does that isn't on super-villain level?

The new executive order makes things even more official, stressing that the United States does not view space as a "global commons" and sees a clear path to off-Earth mining, without the need for further international treaty-level agreements.

lol at "commercial development" of space. I'm envisioning trump branded moon rocks, tacky moon casinos, and of course - mickey d's big macs on the moon.

"As America prepares to return humans to the moon and journey on to Mars, this executive order establishes U.S. policy toward the recovery and use of space resources, such as water and certain minerals, in order to encourage the commercial development of space," Scott Pace, deputy assistant to the president and executive secretary of the U.S. National Space Council, said in a statement today.

starting to think he named his kid baron because of dune

  Quote

Trump used the pseudonym "John Barron" (sometimes "John Baron") throughout the 1980s, with its earliest known usage in 1980 and its last acknowledgment in 1990. According to The Washington Post, the name was a "go-to alias when [Trump] was under scrutiny, in need of a tough front man or otherwise wanting to convey a message without attaching his own name to it."Barron would be introduced as a spokesperson for Trump.

New York (CNN Business)Vice President Mike Pence's office has declined to allow the nation's top health officials to appear on CNN in recent days and discuss the coronavirus pandemic killing thousands of Americans, in an attempt to pressure the network into carrying the White House's lengthy daily briefings in full.

Vice President Pence on Thursday reversed an earlier decision that had barred members of the White House coronavirus task force from appearing on CNN.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Robert Redfield appeared on the network's coronavirus town hall Thursday night, and leading infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci is booked for a Friday appearance, CNN reported Thursday.

lol again

one of the problems w/people like owens is she exists in the pundit world and frames her arguments as such. she's confined by the media psyche in a way. there's certainly an agenda as there always is.. but it's weird shit. there's fracturing. it's an us vs them but everyone in that us vs them is american.  people like her want to do damage for some wrong they imagine was foisted on them by the "other".. buy "them" in america. she and people like her are more interested in hurting some people than helping the people she imagines would be her supporters. 

She kept calling her entire video a "clip" and that was enough to tip me off that she doesn't understand how words work.
