Trump Threatens To Permanently Cut WHO Funding. Oh, and to leave the organization. His perpetual search for a scapegoat continues. A relentlessly destructive force.
Trump Gives Brand-New Company $354 Mill To Manufacture Drugs Right Here In The Good Ol’ USA. While I generally like the idea of this, it’s Trump, Navarro, and potentially $800-plus million dollars. Anyone think there isn’t some dirty dealing going on here? I mean, who throws that kind of money at a bunch of rookies? Asked and answered.
House Exploring Further Impeachment Charges? Yes, according to attorneys seeking release of Mueller grand jury before the Supreme Court. Meaning, there’s stuff in there that Trump wants to bury.
Cali Church Service Exposes 180 To Covid-19. Hey, the infected party didn’t test positive until the next day, so it’s not their fault. Except for that violating the stay-at-home order thingy.
Everything Falls Apart, Ctd. US. Global. 1,508,957 confirmed cases and 90,369 deaths in the United States.
A Trump Pyramid Scheme You Might Have Missed. Meaning, I missed it. Anyway, the judge said the class action lawsuit could move forward. Good.
Trump Awards Food Distribution Contracts To Companies With No Food Distribution Background. In Trumpworld, the con men are more important than the people who would receive the food.
Essential Workers Strike. Will this take hold? Will the larger media outlets start to cover this? I think the two questions are interrelated.
If You Can Work From Home, Why Go Back? There’s no reason to go back. All of that excess commercial real estate on the market? It may now and forever be excess.
How Trump Could Screw National Guard Members Out Of Federal Benefits. Even by Trumpian standards this is a disgrace:
More than 40,000 National Guard members currently helping states test residents for the coronavirus and trace the spread of infections will face a “hard stop” on their deployments on June 24 — just one day shy of many members becoming eligible for key federal benefits, according to a senior FEMA official.
The official outlined the Trump administration’s plans on an interagency call on May 12, an audio version of which was obtained by POLITICO. The official also acknowledged during the call that the June 24 deadline means that thousands of members who first deployed in late March will find themselves with only 89 days of duty credit, one short of the 90-day threshold for qualifying for early retirement and education benefits under the Post-9/11 GI bill.
Don’t Know How To Open Schools? Form A Working Group. Make That Three Working Groups. This is every bit as Delaware Way as letting the Chamber dictate business law.
