This is a very well-written article, and it is the first one that explains something you can do for yourself to check your status. It is not a virus test, but evidently the people who do the worst with this COVID 19 have a low Oxygen Saturation early on. In "hospital land" anything under 92% is an indication to provide oxygen support.
According to Fareed Zacharia, Bernie's Scandanavian utopian dream is not what he claims. He may even believe it, but if he does it is because he has not done the research.
Let’s say you and I are neighbors. You’re an emergency room doctor, and I don’t work, thanks to a pile of money my grandparents left me.
You spend your days and nights stitching up gunshot wounds and helping children survive asthma attacks. I’ve gotten really good at World of Warcraft, winning EBay auctions, and frying shishito peppers to just the right crispiness.
Let’s also say we both report $300,000 in income to the Internal Revenue Service this year. Who pays more in taxes?
When Gina Haspel “answered questions it reminded me of when I was teenager, just learning to lie to my parents:
1. “Did you go to the party at Annie Thomas’s pajama party , like you said.?”
1*. Did you ever meet alone with president trump?
Answers: “YES!! I went to Annie’s party” [[ for ten minutes....The rest of the time I was at the big block party because there were no parents around.]]
Someone who knows what went on with the hacking brought here from Prague. This is a very intriguing story IMOP. There is just one thing that has me confused:
Fun fact: Speaker Ryan helped. So what does this mean?
A Christmas Day editorial delivered a major piece of coal to Orrin Hatch for his role in the giving away of federal lands and also the tax scam, both of which will harm Utahans, according to the Tribune. An excerpt:
But perhaps the most significant move of Hatch’s career is the one that should, if there is any justice, end it.
Patty Murray, a Democrat who had been working on a bipartisan committee with Lamar Alexander, was not asked to participate. She is well-regarded by most, and has had a clear head and a clear objective (fixing and expanding Obamacare) in order to serve more people.
A German company has a completely solar motor home. It is covered with panels, the floors are heated, it is sleek, and even has stars twinkling above the bed. That's the good news. The bad news is that here in "the bestest country in the world?!?!?" we are so far behind it's not funny.
At least we have Elon Musk and a few others. I even put some money into a solar start-up last month. I hope it pans out, and not just for selfish reasons.
The is a pretty comprehensive and factual pile of info that the GOP had all along, including Bernie's very thin resume. When he was 40 years old he became the mayor of Burlington and became a Senator. Before that, not much.
After that, still not much. You may not like the source, and you may not like the spin on it, but this information would have been used mercilessly, and would have ended up with a trump landslide.
I was not planning to jump on any more 2016 Election Trains, but this one caught my eye.
This is interactive and comprehensive. It takes a long time to go through, but you can also just go with the headlines to get the big picture with dates.
Tuesday night was a symptom. The disease of rot is much worse. From a TPM commenter, this pretty much sums up the problem, but to carry on with the health metaphor, it doesn't provide a prognosis, or a treatment. We are in big trouble:
The long term picture is what is most worrying: the damage is extensive. Very extensive. People are under the impression that this is an anomaly (and it is, to be sure) that will be corrected with an election.
This is the reason I believe Gorsuch should be denied a vote now. Does anyone believe that an Obama appointment would have gone through if the FBI had announced that his administration was under investigation for colluding with Russia to help his campaign?
The Merrick Garland issue is also worth going to the mat over. Gorsuch's evasions are not that different from our own nominees, but then there is his plagiarism, and his general oiliness.
