I Am Not Happy About This At All. Not Happy. At All. Nope, Not. Okay, Okay, Maybe Just A Little.
Or maybe even a medium size happy. No, No, I do not want to wish evil on evil people. So, let’s just say somewhere fluctuating between a little bit and a medium bit.
You know that far right wing president of Brazil who came to Florida to meet Trump?
Fabio Wajngarten, the press secretary for Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, tested positive for coronavirus on Thursday, two sources have told CNN. Bolsonaro’s health is being monitored.
It comes just days after Wajngarten met US President Donald Trump in Florida.
Oh my goodness, they even have a picture of it.
They have HoaxCoronavirus. It’s like common coronavirus except you’re a jerk.
Oh! If there’s a photo, then Trump definitely never met him. Nothing goin’ on there.
1Ghosts & hoaxes.
Thoughts & prayers.
J.J.,
2It’s OK, if you can’t have nice, charitable thoughts about he-who-won’t-be-named. A lot of us have those thoughts…em, prayers, too.
You know, if both the POTUS and VPOTUS are gone to the hospital, Ms Pelosi is their stand-in. If in event of the ultimate health failure of both, then she’s the POTUS.
Bwahahahahaha!
3On a BIG tangent:
Bernie is giving a speech that should comfort the nation. You know, like a caring and factually correct demonstration of the hazard, the shared responsibility, and what WE can do about it…
4It has just dawned on me, in the “What is the scummiest thing GOPs could do” vein. Given this article (title^): “After Outrage, McConnell Quickly Backtracks on Recess Plans Amid Pandemic Scare”.
If the Senate came back to things out of forking control, could they campaign for martial law? Could it be part of the game plan to let things get so bad that martial law was an option?
If it weren’t for ALL the bad faith and deliberate and willful ignorance of Boss Tweet’s lawlessness by McTurtle, I would NEVER believe in such a possibility. But here we are…

5FYI: The Democratic National Committee announced Thursday that it is moving the presidential debate scheduled for Sunday from Phoenix, Arizona to Washington, D.C. “out of an abundance of caution and in order to reduce cross-country travel.”
“All parties have decided that the best path forward is to hold Sunday’s debate at CNN’s studio in Washington, D.C., with no live audience,” DNC communications director Xochitl Hinojosa said in a statement.

6Also, too…

Mr. Burns: “Exxxcellent!”
8Seeing that photo I had the sudden remembrance of the Hee Haw skit with all the hillbillies on the couch. This C-19 will plow through Brazil because they have so many poor people – it won’t be pretty.
9I’ll go with the Moms Mabley comment, “Don’t say nothing but good of the dead. He’s dead. Good!”
10Now where have I heard this storyline before? Violent and poorly communicating aliens invade the planet. They use death rays beamed from Fox News. They use poison gas shells as encouraged by a take-over of the EPA to kill people in mass. They show no mercy and are only interested in taking over the world for themselves to profit from. After large numbers of deaths and widespread destruction, they are finally halted by a virus they weren’t prepared for.
Oh, now I remember. The story was the news reports about CPAC.
111) with this administration’s record on lying one cannot accept this as being true. Knowing his germophobia he, and his family, may be getting tested every day and just trying to hide how many test kits they have reserved for themselves.
122) No mention of testing at refugee detention camps that ICE is running. With pictures of a multitude being held in a common cell sharing everything it sounds like a petri dish for cultivation of a virus.
3) Prisons and refugee camps across the globe seem to be poised to become ongoing pockets of the virus even after other vectors have been cleared.
4) Proof once again that the 1% canNOT completely isolate themselves from the rest of humanity so arguement against universal health care is shown another as a failure of promoting health care for anyone.
Surly Professor,
13Yes, The War of the Insane Worlds.
I also think back to The Twilight Zone. While Rod Serling never scared me as much as CPAC, Mr. Serling also had the decency to only scare me half to death a half hour a week. Not 24/7 like CPAC.
Speaker Pelosi may be next in line but I doubt anybody in the WH would admit to either or both Donny and Mikey being sick or deceased. They would do a Woodrow Wilson cover-up.
We will have to look for telltale signs like Ivanka having a sad or Melanoma smiling for real.
14With the number of CoronaVirus exposures of people in demented donies circle ( Miss lindsey, gantz, meadows, Brazil press secratary etc) one must start to wonder if the doddering don is the common vector of these exposures and they are claiming no testing of the national obesity to hide the fact.
15I thought dumpy looked sick during his speech. He was gasping (shortness of breath is one of the 3 signs) and feverishly flushed. I didn’t hear him cough but he had his usual sniff that he doesn’t seem to have at his rallies. He was sitting down instead of standing and he didn’t flail his arms and hands around. He was definitely off his feed. I think he’s been tested secretly but I want to know why he’s not quarantined like normal people are under lesser exposure circumstances.
And hooray for Congresswoman Katy Porter today who shamed the CDC chief into saying there would be free testing for all Americans who need it, even if they have insurance.
16Trump is refusing to be tested, so I heard.
On the one hand, all that “Chosen One” balderdash that was going on last year obviously went to his head [even more than it had before then] so he’s certain he can’t become infected.
And on the other, he’s not using up a perfectly good test that could have gone to a deserving human being. That can only be a Good Thing.
17Don’t worry J.J. you wish all the evil onto the trumpkin you like it does no harm as magic is not real, but it does release the tension in your neck.
