Not that anybody looks good when they are ill, but PM Johnson looked a bit rough in his social media video the other day. Hang in there, Boris, and get well soon!
[National Pulse] In partnership with the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations, and the U.S.-China Business Council, the foundation “sourced” the sizable donation. American companies Chubb and Walmart also contributed, and FedEx comped shipping fees. Graphic at right - Henry Kissinger is flanked by Deng Xiaoping, right, and Qiao Guanhua in 1974.
Meanwhile, China’s reaction to the onset of the pandemic was to poach vast quantities of medical supplies from other countries.
A company insider at the Chinese Communist Party affiliated developer Greenland Group exposed the operation: “Basically all employees, the majority of whom are Chinese, were asked to source whatever medical supplies they could” including “bulk supplies of surgical masks, thermometers, antibacterial wipes, hand sanitizers, gloves and Panadol.”
And that’s coming from the same regime that insists on“global cooperation” to combat the pandemic it caused.

China makes everything. Who in hell thought this was q good idea in the first place? That is, to give away our wealth to China? Why couldn't they make their own medical masks, supplies, ventilators and other such things? Now there is a shortage of these things here.
[Twitter] HT: AoS Listening to the audio, he may have said [he'd] "...have asked the President and The Pentagon over a week ago...", but y'all be the judge.
In any case, I've yet to see Mr. Wilhelm demonstrate an appreciation for how a "federation of states" works. Maybe that's "Prog" thing.

He sounds like the Federal Government simply keeps nurses, doctors, and therarsit stored in a warehouse somewhere. Stacked like cordwood to be used only in case of an emergency.

Maybe De Blasio should work with Governor Cuomo to get these things. As Trump said, it is not up to the federal government to supply all these things. There is too much reliance on the Feds for everything.
"Sure. We - look. We are - we have the biggest public health capacity of any city in America, and we have been employing it now for weeks and weeks in anticipation of this. I am very, very concerned, like every other mayor in America, but I do want to put in perspectives - you know, as of now, 36 cases against the backdrop of a city of 8.6 million people. So we do expect a substantial increase in number of cases, but we also know that this is a disease that - for the vast majority of people who get it, it will have a minor impact on them."

Warren Wilhelm (real birth name) has been a fake, fraud, commie POS all his life. He Peter-Principaled into the Mayor spot and has proven his lack of worth

Seems the 'models' are starting to fall down. From the link:
In New York, the IMHE model predicted that as of yesterday, 50,962 people would have been hospitalized as of yesterday due to the Coronavirus. The actual number? 18,368.

You know buttercup, /YOU/ don't tell the Pentagon anything. You tell either the governor or your disaster preparedness officer liaison.
[DCWhispers] The junior congresswoman’s "Praise Allah!" response to the news that America faces some very difficult days ahead as the coronavirus continues to work its way through the population has gone viral via social media.
It appears Ilhan Omar has recently deleted the tweet after she was strongly challenged by others, including some fellow Muslims, who were offended/concerned she would say such a thing.
Her tweet and one of those challenges are included below:
Per Ms. Omar, in "explaining" the tweet: "islamophobes, this is the same as "good god". [sic].
Per Learn Religions: Subhan Allah‐can be translated to mean, among other things, both "God is perfect" and "Glory to God."
Per LEXICO: "Among Muslims: ’(all) praise be to God’. Also used as a general expression of praise, gratitude, or relief. "
Per yahoo.com: "Subhan'Allah (Arabic سبحان الله) is an Arabic phrase often translated as "Glorious is God."
[PJMEDIA] Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden ...Old, boring, a plagiarist, fond of hair sniffing and grabbing the protruding parts of women, and not whatcha call brilliant... , in what can only be called a stunning flip-flop, now supports President Trump's travel ban with China, which was imposed on January 31.
"Joe Biden supports travel bans that are guided by medical experts, advocated by public health officials, and backed by a full strategy," Kate Bedingfield, Biden's deputy campaign manager, told CNN. "Science supported this ban, therefore he did too."
But Joe Biden did not support Trump's travel ban with China. His record is quite clear on this. In an op-ed in USA Today, Biden decried "reactionary travel bans," just a few days before the China travel ban was implemented. Biden advisor Ron Klain said the idea of a travel ban was "premature."
When the travel ban was implemented, Biden criticized the move during a campaign rally. "In moments like this, this is where the credibility of a president is most needed, as he explains what we should and should not do," he said. "This is no time for Donald Trump ...Oh, noze! Not him!... ’s record of hysteria and xenophobia, hysterical xenophobia, to uh, and fearmongering."

Labels such as "Xenophobia" or any other phobia and "ist." are political tools used by the left to demonize anyone who disagrees with then, they don't like or threatens their power. They have "darker" tools, as well, if the PC crap doesn't work.
I don't think Biden is going to be the candidate. I think the Dems will spring someone else on the Party when the time comes--probably at convention time.

We suffer from two viruses in this country: 1. COVID-19 and 2. The Deepstate Virus which has been ongoing probably from at the least after WWII and maybe longer.

Secret service is supposed to be silent. This type of stuff, if he's real, just further degrades their reputation. I bet a lot of folks are pissed.
This will persuade all those deplorables that there’s no such thing as a Deep State for sure.
[AlAhram] The top U.S. federal watchdog vowed on Saturday to continue to conduct "aggressive" independent oversight of government agencies, after President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... fired the inspector general of the U.S. intelligence community late Friday night.
Michael Horowitz, chair of the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE), an independent agency in the executive branch and the inspector general at the Department of Justice, said in a statement that Michael Atkinson was known for his "integrity, professionalism, and commitment to the rule of law and independent oversight."

"He’s decapitating the leadership of the intelligence community in the middle of a national crisis," he said. "It’s unconscionable, and of course it sends a message throughout the federal government and particular to other inspectors general."
Precisely what needs to be done. Was it not our own intelligence community that attempted to "decapitate" the Orange Man ?

Michael Horowitz, ... said in a statement that Michael Atkinson was known for his "integrity, professionalism, and commitment to the rule of law and independent oversight."
It was Horowitz's report that criticized Atkinson and placed the noose around his neck. Hypocrite.
#7
Trump did the right thing in dumping Atkinson. Atkinson has never been forthcoming. We've never seen his deposition or testimony behind closed doors in the Schiff Show. We have never heard who the two whistleblowers were in that ginned-up lynching of Trump.
#8
He may well have some or all of those lofty qualities. What he apparently lacks is any spectrum of judgement considering the entire situation came down to the president having done nothing illegal or in any way beyond his authority. The entire dilemma distills down to it wasn't what they might have done. That is a waste of time, money, and effort.
