also your first sentence. Are you advocating people should be paid to do the right thing and if not who cares?

Nah, just saying that people have the right to spout whatever nonsense they wish.

i say who cRes who is getting paid what. Do the right thing to help yourself and your neighbor live happily. And that means being straight with no lies or half truths.

I cant control the president, but i can control myself.

Right. And the president should be able to control himself as well.

i disagree with this, because Trump does it, its okay for us to do it.

I'm saying something different: just because we do it, it's not ok for Trump to do it.

someone has to be the better person.
You already know Trump wont be that in your opinion, so the alternative is those who oppose him take the high road. Or bitch about him doing the same thing we do ourselves.

your choice. i know which one I'm trying to make.

Good. I'm marginally more willing to die for your right to take the high road than for your right to take the low road.

I'm beyond done with the fake news excuse.....if you missed the eye rolling, smirking, looks of disbelief, that's to me saying you're just not wanting to see it...choices.

So.

I went and found a full size video on my large screen. With sound.

Trump made a joke about the deep state. Dr. Fauci looks right(at Trump?), then looks left, then looks down. He seems to possibly have a slight smirk or suppressed giggle. He then wipes his forehead from right to left never stopping movement of his hand as he moves it to his neck.

He did not roll his eyes, as you can see his pupils the whole time, looking left to right, until he looks down.

Here is the video. its clear. Yet the headline reads...Dr. fauci appears to do a face palm.

This is not accurate and is fake news. You can call it what you want River, just remember, hatred is indeed blinding.

Having been around a bar brawl or two, I can say, a bottle that doesn't break, hurts much worse than a bottle that breaks. Poor woman.

The New York times reported that Secretary of"Education" Betsy DeVos has given money allocated to public schools and colleges to private Christian schools in direct violation of Corona virus relief bill. DeVos believes that her god's plan for America is to replace public schools entirely with private Christian schools, and her family benefitting financially is no doubt also part of divine plan. Although the law also specifically states priority is to fund schools in low income neighborhoods, DeVos has moved money from poorer to wealthier districts. Which I'm sure is also part of god's plan. God in this case being god emperor Trump.

Fauci....I can't jump in front of a microphone and push him down.....there were several videos of Fauci's expressions of disbelief...the face palm was not the eye rolling...check Seth Meyers Trump videos and you'll find them or Colberts or Kimmels….many have been removed by the campaign at this point from news feeds... They are there. And I'll be disgusted at Trump in full knowledge that my eyesight is fine thank you....hang onto that thread

 

[yankeesince59]

DeVos should have never been appointed to her position in the first place.

Money, money moneeeeeyyyyyy. The only two qualifications to be in this administration is money and loyalty. Knowledge of the subject is not necessary.

I'm not hanging River, I'm just trying to honestly be impartial about things. If the eye rolling was a different video, fair enough, then that should be the video knows as the eye roll, etc.

For those of us who aren't able to see everything, this is why its so important that everything be transparent and on point. Many peoples lives are busy bro, and I do not have the time to watch every video out there. Most people don't. So that's why its all that much more important that the media and people in general, really take head to what we push and share and make sure its accurate. Its all of our responsibilities to help each other out so we can all come down to the same truths of our world, in my opinion.

To me and many independents, Im almost sure we will flock to the group, even compromising a bit on personal beliefs, if a party would just come clean be real and open and honest. The Moment I see that, I'm following VERY closely and respect Immensely that character.

Who is gonna take the first step in trying to stop this barrage of bullshit that envelopes us everyday? Everyone is pointing fingers and saying gotcha, i'm saying lets all just stop.

We may not agree on everything, but i respect your opinion. I'm just trying to create a larger separation in the American news feed of opinion and fact is all. I think it will do us ALL some good.

Yes folks, the idiot in the White House really said it. If we didn't do any testing, we would have fewer cases. WTF? No testing doesn't make the cases go away. They will still be there, but we just wouldn;t know about it. That's why we need more testing dumbshit. Can't make this crap up.

Oregon Opens up some Southern Oregon Coast State Parks for Camping.

24 of 36 counties in Oregon have had 0 deaths.
Of those 24 counties there has been 380 cases, from a total of 3479 cases State Wide.

What's the population total of those 24 counties? That gives me a more accurate idea of the relative infection rates.

I hope Trump never wears a mask

 

[riverman]

I wouldn't be surprised if he's already had plasma treatment from a survivor to serve as an early vaccine......he probably knows he's got a buffer

He's been wearing a mask since the day he was born.

Currently as of today the infection rate for te whole state

What's the population total of those 24 counties? That gives me a more accurate idea of the relative infection rates.

Lanny, as of today 31 counties have entered phase 1. Those 31 counties account for 2,0430,000 of the total population today of 4,300,000. The 5 counties not included are Mult, WA, Clack, Marion, & Polk.

As of today State wide the infection rate is 3.8% for all counties.

For the 31 counties

What's the population total of those 24 counties? That gives me a more accurate idea of the relative infection rates.

Trump needs to get the economy going. That's why he doesn't want testing. He's afraid it will lead to another shutdown because he knows the virus isn't going away. It's all about the election for Trump.

No, here's the astounding part, he doesn't know that the infection isn't going away. He truly believes that the combination of warmer weather plus his wildest fantasies will make the infection go away never to return.
It would seem that some believe that close contact with no mask or social distancing is just the ticket to prevent a future spread. I say how did these characters who believe this ever graduate from grade school.

Naw, he really doesn't believe it lanny. He's only concerned about getting the people to believe it. Someone described him the other day as another Peter Pan who hasn't grown up yet and lives in a fantasy land. He thinks if he lies to people and tells everyone that everything will be great they will like him more.

trump is a malevolent wrecking ball that damages or destroys most anything in his wake. Maybe no institution has suffered more damage under trumpism than the CDC:
