The Trump administration's MO for Coronavirus has been to kick everything down to the state and local level. Maybe the Biden administration will centralize planning more and maybe do better? Is there even a plan for the general public once they get through the vulnerable and the medical workers? Or is it going to be like buying a PS5 with supplies to your area being about as clear as mud

Why is the independent damn near outcast non democrat's political gamesmanship better than the Democratic leadership?

I think since the $600 is going out and they probably don't have to fight Trump now, they have the political leeway to kill the extra $1400.

Backup vaccine? It's not a treatment for the disease, it's a fucking preventative... Backup for what? In case a few thousand people don't get it later? Maybe I'm an idiot but this is hurting my brain.

Nothing, their leadership is old enough to have had sex with Kennedy and the younger more progressive crowd is mostly marginalized

I don't know why they'd fear it now, every fucking party they have seems to be some kind of superspreader event. Going to a gathering at the White House in the second half of 2020 is the best way to get COVID.

4D chess

Using signatures as proof is such bullshit. I'm 37 and my signature has never been terribly consistent and it's certainly not the same as it was when I registered to vote 19 years ago

My goofus idiot of a state rep cosigned to impeach my governor for the lockdowns, he also posts conspiracies about the Democrats stealing the election from Trump.

But what this country definitely needs is to privatize the mail...

I hosted a Jackbox thing for my team at work on Zoom a couple months back and it worked great.

The red squiggly lines that go under the words mean you're doing really well.

Speaking of right wing conspiracy theories know what I'd forgotten about? Seth Rich Fox News Settles Long-Running Legal Battle With Seth Rich’s Parents; Family Hopes “Media Will Take Genuine Caution In The Future” DEADLINE.COM Fox News has settled with the family of Seth Rich three years after it retracted a story suggesting a conspiracy was behind his death.

I feel like the other candidates mental capacity being questioned has probably been something that's been done since elections have existed in democracies going way back. But now 77% of Trump voters believe he was cheated apparently with the current right wing media nurturing that narrative, that's kicking it up a notch a little past the mudslinging of old.

Things have shifted a little more since then, conspiracy theory has gotten more mainstream and dog whistles are just kind of whistles now.

If OANN or Newsmax become the new right wing news channel of choice...

With how this year is shaking out I feel like we'll get nostalgic for the halcyon days of moderate even headed voices from right wing news like Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham.

Bad news if you want government to bail anything out, the Legislative Branch has the week off and even if they didn't McConnell and the Republicans seem to be holding the line on "skinny" stimulus.

Yeah, state of Ohio has the same curfew. It doesn't apply to grocery stores and bars were already under orders to close at 10:00 anyway so I don't know who it really effects.

A couple of my friends went to high school with the guy who wrote that and they both have very different opinions of him.

It's comforting to know that no matter how bad things get Mitch McConnell doesn't give a fuck.

He probably shouldn't wonder why the people of Colorado decided not to send him back to DC.

Ohio has a 10pm curfew starting Thursday for 21 days. Grocery stores and drive throughs are exempted. I'm not sure how much spread there was after dark, the bars had to close early anyway

Every "free speech" upstart social media deal always fills up with Nazis and pedophiles. Everyone else who joins will have an "Are we the baddies?" moment and silently leave
