Yeah, that’s going to work. Call attention to the fact that all of Stanford says you’re full of bullshit.

Trump is a infectious disease and he is too stupid to figure that out.

It wouldn’t be so bad for Atlas if he weren’t advocating measures which would lead to over 6,000,000 deaths.

Don’t back down, Stanford. Go get him!!

OT, but Neil Katyal and others were talking about Barr just now with Nicolle Wallace. Katyal said Barr has now gone “full Caputo” and is at the “Rudy Giuliano stage of personal development.” He had competence a while back, but he’s traded that for modern day relevance and abandoned all principle.

Katyal was too kind. :grinning:

The actual message isn’t hard. It doesn’t take long. Look here.

Five California governors. 56 seconds. One simple message.

He enlisted Marc Kasowitz, the longtime Trump attorney known for his beligerent email persona, who penned the missive, purportedly to every signatory of the letter.

Not enough popcorn in all of Iowa…

Stanford should request that the Court got straight to discovery on this one and subpoena both Trump and Atlas to describe any and all conversations on “herd mentality”. This would be hilarious if it wasn’t so tragic.

For the record, Dr. Micheal Osterholm (Univ. of Minnesota) states that “herd immunity” has rarely been achieved naturally in humans and NEVER for a virus, and that the only way it HAS been achieved is via an EFFECTIVE vaccine. Dr. Atlas is full of horseshit and is in way over his head.

This is a very good idea!

Hey, Scott Atlas, can you say “Streisand Effect”? Try it slowly, we’ll watch. And watch. And watch.

In the immortal words of another official based in San Francisco: “Go ahead, make my day.”

I hope that his lawyer insists on payment in advance, 'cause this one sounds like less than a vanity lawsuit.

It’s always good to see Atlas bugged.

The reason people say ETTD has a lot to do with the tendency of people in Trump’s orbit to imitate him, with respect to stupid recklessness.

Sort of OT. The dam is cracking.

Former Pence aide says she will vote for Biden because of Trump’s ‘flat out disregard for human life’ during pandemic

Olivia Troye, who worked as homeland security, counterterrorism and coronavirus adviser to Vice President Pence for two years, said that the administration’s response cost lives and that she will vote for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden this fall because of her experience in the Trump White House.
