Trade data suggest that U.S. exports of medical supplies surged when the administration should have been preparing for a domestic coronavirus outbreak, according to a new report by Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA).
Where to begin…
The bright spot is Katie Porter is after trump’s ass. I am wondering if trump had stock in those medical export companies… hmmm… bets are somebody in the family did. It’s just too lucrative for him not to be eyeball deep into it. And of course he knew nothing about any of it. Emoluments clause anyone?
“In February 2020, the value of U.S. mask exports to China was 1094.0% higher than the 2019 monthly average,” Porter’s report said. “In February 2020, the value of U.S ventilator exports to China was 292.2% higher than the 2019 monthly average.”
How about here…he knew in November!
Contribute to Katie Porter, she’s in a swing district, and you know the GOP will go after her hammer and tongs.
God bless Katie Porter. Not going to happen, but wouldn’t you love to watch a VP debate between Porter and Pence?
“Quelle surprise!”
Just one more giant corrupt log thrown on the grandfather of all bonfires of corruption.
The absolute worst thing to realize is that this pandemic could have been avoided if the jackass hadn’t gutted our public heath response infrastructure. What a “fucking moron”.
Samantha Bee had Katie on her show last night. I love Katie more every time I see her. Her motto is: I don’t have time for bullshit.
And she walks that talk!
Can you contribute to Congress critters who are out of state?
“In February 2020, the value of U.S. mask exports to China was 1094.0% higher than the 2019 monthly average,” Porter’s report said.
And just because you just can’t make up this stuff…
Trump: “I have made the tough decisions, always with an eye toward the bottom line. Perhaps it’s time America was run like a business.”
When people tell you who they are, believe them.
Absolutely.
It’s clear we have the absolute worst leadership in the world, and it’s not even close. Even worse, we have 40-45% of the populace who refuse to see the evidence.
We may well be one of the first countries to open up, but, rightfully, we should probably be the last.
At least 3 Arizona governors, during my time as a resident of Arizona have been former businessmen who claimed they’d run this state like their businesses. Two, Evan Mecham, and Fife Symington, went to prison because of their shenanigans, financially speaking.
Turns out that they told the truth. Noteworthy in and of itself.
A steady drumbeat of this is what we need.
Trump’s a moron, so what are the Americans who voted for him? Super morans? We need a new word.
Starting up a closed business isn’t up to trump though he is desperate for people to believe it. It is up to the individual owner. And perhaps to a governor or mayor who had told businesses to close down but not trump!!!
ActBlue is our friend.
Fascism is the merger of government with business.
That’s what the GOP does.
So long as you are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident.
So precisely at the time when you would expect smart people to prepare, and dumb people to stand around.
It happened.
