Re: Rachel Maddow of MSNBC: Statements on the Comfort and Mercy
The one thing we can both agree on is that it was absolutely disgusting of China to withhold valuable information from all countries (not just US). It seems obvious to me there are also many leading the WHO are bought by China, such just seemed to want to compliment China rather than help prepare t...

Re: Rachel Maddow of MSNBC: Statements on the Comfort and Mercy
While I may not agree with all sentiments that was a pretty good response. Often it takes an incident like this for everyone to take a viral outbreak seriously, hence why Taiwan was much more prepared (given they had to deal with SARS). I expect second time around, things will be much different worl...

Re: Rachel Maddow of MSNBC: Statements on the Comfort and Mercy
World Health Organisation should have been on the pulse, but what were they saying during January? Taiwan did a much better job, and they have a special group setup for monitoring diseases due to SARS. Now everyone realised there needs to be a special task force setup for such. So not to let Trump a...

Rachel Maddow of MSNBC: Statements on the Comfort and Mercy
Rachel Maddow on MSNBC said: In terms of the happy talk we`ve had on this front from the federal government, there is no sign that the Navy hospital ships that the president made such a big deal of, the Comfort and the Mercy, there`s no sign that they`ll be anywhere on-site helping out anywhere in t...

Re: Is impeachment and removal from office possible? What would it take?
Having looked into it more, I may have downplayed the the actual "Alt-Right" movement, which I came to realise after listening to one of Shapiro's talks on the matter and the level of importance he assigned to discussing such. (and I'm not a Shapiro follower, but he said stuff that helped ...

Re: Is impeachment and removal from office possible? What would it take?
Ok, so I've just read through this thread from where the meaning of "Alt Right" was semi-discussed. Seems to me many have come to understand "Alt-Right" as being "white supremacists" and racist beliefs. That shmucko Robert Spencer claimed the title. This shouldn't be co...

...and 50% of the US aren't deplorables. Read this: The part of Hillary Clinton's speech that everyone, including CNN, quoted over and over and over...

Oh, shock jock gay conservative Milo, and Breitbart are alt-right. Got it. It seems clear to me that "Alt-Right" is just a label used to smear and stigmatize rather than deal intellectually with issues. If you really believe that nonsense, that just proves that you are no where close to &...
