Don’t Worry – It’s Just Money and Lives

The Obama Administration ordered 10,000 ventilators in 2014 that were scheduled to be delivered in 2019.
The Trump administration delayed the purchase and then canceled the order.
.
Then, with their backs against the wall, the Trump administration paid $500 million dollars for a new rush order.
.
The Trump Administration, represented by Peter Navarro and other senior officials in the White House, negotiated a new contract with Philips.  The Administration agreed to pay Philips almost five times the price than under the previous contract.
.
And get this, the ventilators won’t be ready until 2022!
.
Hey, at least this explains how you go about bankrupting a casino.
.
Thanks to Deb T for the heads up. 

Dudes, No.

Okay, so I did not ever suspect the Navy Seals were the most socially aware people on the planet, but who the hell do they think they are?

 

 

How the hell did we let them get away with saying he took a knee because he hates the troops?  It’s not about the troops.  The national anthem is not about the troops. They get Memorial Day and Veteran’s Day.  That’s enough.

There are children watching.  Those kids in the background are ROTC. What the hell are they seeing?

I believe the troops are there in the first place to protect freedom of speech.

 

The Supremes

Here’s an idea that Ole Bubba has been kicking around for a while.

I think Ruth Bader Ginsberg is going to live forever.  However, should she throw up her hands in disgust anytime before inauguration, everybody lives in terror that we’re gonna have Bob Barr on the Supreme Court.

Both Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell say they most certainly will push through an appointment if one occurs before inauguration day.

There is a solution and it has been done before.

Once Democrats take control, they vote to expand the court to make up for Brett Kavanaugh and whoever else Republicans think is horribly unqualified for the job and likes beer at a frightening emotional level.

Thanks to Kary for the heads up.

Okay, Trump is walking back his promise to bar reporters from the GOP convention.

They admitted that on Saturday they did say no reporters.  But, hell, Sunday is a whole different day.

“Two RNC officials insisted Sunday that they are still working through the logistics and press coverage options,” the Post reported before quoting one spokesperson stating, “We are still working through logistics and press coverage options.”

Look, I wouldn’t go out and buy and popcorn to watch the GOP National Convention until the morning of the convention because I have a feeling that it’s gonna be an hour by hour thing.  I’m thinking maybe this isn’t a real organized event.

Oh well, at least we can count on Trump not showing his tax returns.
