As Americans across the country cancel Christmas celebrations and rethink holiday plans, hundreds of young conservatives, many without masks, crammed into President Donald Trump’s South Florida resort to attend Turning Point USA’s Winter Gala.
Despite the coronavirus pandemic, which has killed more than 300,000 Americans, the popular, pro-Trump group favored by conservative college students held the sold-out event at the Mar-A-Lago during its third annual Student Action Summit.
Attendees paid $2,000 each to hear such speakers as Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, Fox News host Laura Ingraham and Kentucky Senator Rand Paul.
Photos from the event show hundreds of attendees violating Palm Beach County’s COVID-19 rules as they posed for photos with notable GOP figures like White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany, Representative Matt Goetz, South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, former Trump 2016 campaign manager Corey Lewandowski and Trump ally Roger Stone, who was granted clemency by the president earlier this year.
As good as dead, they are. They should have listened to Birx and Foochy. Sad.

Newsom picks California Secretary of State Alex Padilla to fill Harris’ Senate seat
California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, selected California Secretary of State Alex Padilla for the Senate seat that Vice President-elect Kamala Harris will vacate.
“The son of Mexican immigrants — a cook and house cleaner — Alex Padilla worked his way from humble beginnings to the halls of MIT, the Los Angeles City Council and the State Senate, and has become a national defender of voting rights as California’s Secretary of State,” Newsom said in a statement on Tuesday. “Now, he will serve in the halls of our nation’s Capitol as California’s next United States Senator, the first Latino to hold this office.”
Thank goodness Gavin got him in before the voters had a chance to elect another fucking white guy.
The last white guy elected Senator from CA was a Republican. Ancient fucking history.
“the first Latino to hold this office.”
From California? or in the entire Senate. Because Rubio and Cruz would like to have a word.
Californians are so progressive that they refused to elect a latinx to the Senate. They needed a white savior to appoint one.
True.
So he took a slot at MIT that could have gone to someone that contributed to society with it?
I was gonna say, he goes to MIT and then uses that education to get into politics? Why?
Has Kamaltoe resigned officially yet?

I don’t know much about art, but that seems a tad high.
One thing I’ve learned from the art world… just because you ask that much doesn’t mean someone will pay for it.
After George died in 2013, his work really shot up in price. The painting upon which that particular print is based could easily go for $200K. His schtick was lucrative enough to inspire a rival gallery in the French Quarter ,The Red Cat.

“Well, we’ll make a judgment all the time about what the needs are. I think that when you see the surge and the Coronavirus, you know that we cannot just think it’s over or that we can ignore it. The denial, the delay, the distortion, the calling it a hoax has caused hundreds of thousands of deaths, not all of them attributed to President Trump, but most of them that could have been avoided.”
“So, this is a matter of life and death: the lives of the American people and the livelihood of our economy and their economic security,” she continued. “So we’ll make a judgment as we go forward as to what has changed and what — what may be for the better or may be for the worse as we go forward.”
Wasn’t this cunte partying it up in Chinatown when news of the pandemic was first being known?
“The denial, the delay, the distortion, the calling it a hoax has caused hundreds of thousands of deaths, not all of them attributed to President Trump, but most of them that could have been avoided.”
SCIENCE!!
And this titantic, disgusting whopper will elicit endless claps from nearly every media outlet in the country.
Kind of like everything Shithead Cuomo says.
He killed millions worldwide just as soon as if he’d shot ’em! On Fifth Avenue, natch.
If it hadn’t been for Trump, we’d all have immortality.
Factcheck: False. ALL of the deaths are Drumpfy McOrangemanbad’s fault.
And yet no one Pelosi knows can say how they would have done anything differently at each stage, knowing what was known at the time.
When I point that out to people, asking what they think should have been done differently, they most often say ‘he should have taken it more seriously” “he should have worn a mask as an example to others” and “he should have told everyone early on how terrible it was going to be instead of hiding that”.
All questionable ideas at best, but not one of which would have made one life difference in the totals.
If I’d been in charge, I would have paid hospitals a premium if they could prove a death was NOT caused by the coronavirus (but it would have to be supported by evidence). I’m guessing if this was the case, we’d still be far from 100,000 deaths total in the country. Dying in a car accident and testing positive should not be considered a covid death, nor should anyone who had end-stage illness with not long to live, and covid just helped the end come more quickly.
Anything but blocking travel from China.
Should they have dealt with him in the traditional way?

Mmmm. Inara. I’ll be in my bunk.

While the coronavirus has been known to be more fatal in older adults and those with preexisting conditions, young people can still contract COVID-19 and the virus has had serious implications even among the young and relatively healthy.

“Google and Facebook set up a pact called ‘Blue Jedi’ to completely dominate the online advertising industry and plotted to work together if they were hit with an anti-trust lawsuit accusing them of being monpolies, a lawsuit claims.
An unredacted version of a lawsuit filed last week alleges the Silicon Valley giants were involved in a quid-pro-quo scheme where Facebook agreed not to challenge Google’s advertising business if they were given special treatment in Google’s ad auctions, the Wall Street Journal reported late on Monday.
Google’s code-name for the pact is ‘Jedi Blue’, an apparent reference to the fictional Jedi knights of the Star Wars film franchise. ‘Blue’ could be a reference to Facebook’s color scheme.”

“Former Trump adviser Sebastian Gorka was forced to cut off MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell on Newsmax for repeating debunked conspiracy theories on the presidential election.
Gorka, who served as deputy assistant to the president in 2017, interviewed Lindell, a fellow Trump supporter, while filling in for Newsmax anchor Greg Kelly on Monday night.
Lindell, who has publicly supported Trump’s claims that the election was ‘stolen’ by Democrats, was asked to weigh in on the president’s ongoing legal battle to overturn the results.
The businessman, 59, however, was quickly shut down when he began repeating allegations that election technology company, Dominion Voting Systems had engaged in fraud to help Joe Biden win the presidential race.
Newsmax and other networks including Fox News and One America News have had to roll back their election fraud claims because Dominion and software company Smartamatic have threatened to sue.
Over the weekend, Fox News ran a package debunking their own hosts’ claims the election was ‘stolen’ from Trump in response to their claims they would launch legal action.”

So not a fan of saisons either? Those yeast strains usually thrive at high temperatures.
And if the mop buckets are food grade plastic, what’s the concern?
I like heffes. And a lot of stouts and porters. I despise IPA, it’s just so bitter it all tastes the same. It’s just bad beer and they cover up the crappy taste with all the hops.
You can showcase your hatred and ignorance of IPA, it’s alright.

There are bad IPA’s out there, and far too many believe that the hops cover up mistakes, which they don’t.
I like hefes and ‘light’ IPAs that aren’t too bitter.
Not enough
Just as Congress has finally eked out a $900 billion stimulus bill, President-elect Joe Biden and many Democrats are calling for more aid for the economy. And they have a point.
After months of back-and-forth, Republicans and Democrats were finally able to strike a deal on a new Covid-19 relief package, which both houses of Congress passed on Monday. The bill is much less ambitious than many progressives and prominent Democrats believe is necessary to help people and get the economy back on track, and they’re already setting the stage to battle for more.
The Washington Post reports that Biden sees this latest package as a “down payment” on what he plans to push for once he is inaugurated. “Immediately, starting in the new year, Congress will need to get to work on support for our COVID-19 plan, for support to struggling families, and investments in jobs and economic recovery,” Biden said in a statement on Sunday. “There will be no time to waste.”
As the Post notes, the former vice president hasn’t been super specific on his follow-up asks, though rebuilding the economy is one of the four planks of his “build back better” plan. He has said he would like a next package to amount to “hundreds of billions of dollars” — some progressive economists argue that number should be much higher, with the House’s HEROES Act clocking in at $3 trillion — and has cited money for state and local governments and larger stimulus checks for low-income people as possible priorities.
It’s a paltry pittance. An insult. No self-respecting President elect would even bend over to pick that kind of money up off the sidewalk.
President-electJoe Biden and many Democrats are calling for more aid for the economy. And they have a point.Maybe we could lock up governors that are violating multiple state and federal constitutional provisions and open up the country and get people back to work? Nah, jk. The Kennedy Center needs a few more million dolars.

“The Campaign’s petition seeks to reverse three decisions which eviscerated the Pennsylvania Legislature’s protections against mail ballot fraud,” Giuliani said in a statement. “The petition seeks all appropriate remedies, including vacating the appointment of electors committed to Joseph Biden and allowing the Pennsylvania General Assembly to select their replacements. The Campaign also moved for expedited consideration, asking the Supreme Court to order responses by December 23 and a reply by December 24 to allow the U.S. Supreme Court to rule before Congress meets on January 6 to consider the votes of the electoral college.”
Uffda. “Until we get a vaccine” is the new “15 days to flatten the curve”. Worse they aren’t even bothering to come up with a new goalpost.
The latest: Hack journalo for proggie Minnesoda website writes long article about how vaccines will change schooling here. The upside is that it may allow in person instruction again. Downside is that the journalo swallows claims about keeping schools closed for the children’s safety whole.
There has been exactly 0 Rona death in the school age cohorts (5-19). Fucking children don’t need community transmission to be reduced to save their lives. And what is the rationalization for “a long time”?
If there is some way this could deal a crippling blow to, and totally dismantle the progressive indoctrination monopoly that is public schooling, that would be the ultimate silver lining, but for some reason, whatever doesn’t kill them just makes them stronger.
“Worse they aren’t even bothering to come up with a new goalpost.”
Sure they have. Because the virus will mutate, again and again, forever. That’s the only goalpost they ever need. There needs to be a new post, one they put lamps on and goes with trees, liberty, and water.
As more and more adults in the greater community get vaccinated, though, school becomes safer for children.
Wait, what?
They’re rolling, just go with it.
It’s science.
Exactly the line that I stumbled over.
I don’t know how you can get safer than 0 deaths.
When the blood of children resurrects the covid dead?
We cannot be sure until there are less than one deaths!
Cumulative deaths are finally decreasing!

” Meet the People Getting Off on Covid-19 Nasal Swabs
Inside the unexpected pleasures of hardcore ‘nussy’ stimulation
As we wrap up the year and we inch closer and closer to a Covid-19 vaccine becoming widely available, certain ephemera of the 2020 pandemic year will be relegated to the margins of history: Plexiglass dividers, face shields that say “Face Shield,” the rise of outdoor dining in subzero temperatures. Which is why now is the ideal time to commemorate the meteoric rise and soon-to-be rapid descent of the “nussy,” the unsung hero of 2020.
A portmanteau of “nose” and “pussy” (similar to “bussy,” a term popularized in the LGBTQ community to refer to the anus), the term “nussy” predates the pandemic — the earliest use of the term I could find on Twitter was a shitpost from 2018, with @cruel_genesis musing, “instead of ‘picking ur nose,’ how about ‘fingering that nussy.’” Yet aside from the occasional ENT doctor visit, Neti pot purchase, or glimpse during poorly shot POV porn, the actual body part has historically received little attention, to the degree that it doesn’t even have an Urban Dictionary definition.
The rise of the Covid-19 nasal swab, however, has brought the nussy into the forefront, leading to millions of people sharing the novel experience of having an entirely new body part poked, prodded, and penetrated. As a result, it has become something of a meme on social media, with many sharing both the discomfort — and the unexpected pleasures — of hardcore nussy stimulation.”

I finally, at the suggestion from many here, starting watching Expanse. But I didn’t even make it halfway through the first episode of the first season, because work and I spend my spare time on the internet, gaming, and messing with anything technology I can find.
Sigh, that’s another show that I skip past when it comes up in random rotation because I want to watch it in order. Similarly, I have a backlog of subtitled stuff to watch because I never have time to sit and read the TV.
Speed it up, L? Helped me with The Story of Women (JP not FR).
Frasier beats Cheers any day.

Yeah, Cheers is an odd choice to dive into. I don’t think I’ve seen a single episode since it aired – or wanted to.
It’s basically a bunch of drunks sitting around, bitching about current goings on…. wait a sec….
I really enjoy Cheers as a background choice, but yeah, Frasier is a much better show. I need to buy the series, because I refuse to watch it on Hulu with commercials.
And for a spicy take:

Yep. Too bad people are so much more racist in %modern day% then they were in the past.

I haven’t seen the show in twenty years. I should go find some episodes.
Serious business
President-elect Joe Biden will have to rebuild the official White House Twitter account’s social media following from scratch once he is sworn in after the company told his transition team it will not inherit the followers from the Trump administration.
The move by Twitter, a departure from how the company handled the situation four years ago, has peeved some members of Biden’s team.
“In 2016, the Trump admin absorbed all of President Obama’s Twitter followers on @POTUS and @WhiteHouse — at Team 44’s urging,” Biden Digital Director Rob Flaherty tweeted Monday. “In 2020, Twitter has informed us that as of right now the Biden administration will have to start from zero.”
In a follow-up message, Flaherty tweeted that transition staff recently fought the idea having the follower count reset but “were told this was unequivocal.”
Why would Biden want all those deplorables?
Oh the burdens he must bear. He’s truly a martyr.

LOL. She’s right.
Except for the Soy thing. Soy does not turn to estrogen, that is a myth. Getting woke and voting democrat is what leads to testosterone loss, not foods or plastic.
But I thought it was making the frogs gay?
Soy is making the frogs gay? No, I’m pretty sure they were always gay and then they went commie.
I looked that one up and it’s another one of those many things where Alex Jones was wrong, but in actuality not 100% wrong. Apparently a common herbicide was causing hermaphrodism (and other things) in frogs.
I mean, anyone who ever saw Jurassic Park knows that there are frogs that are, shall we say, non-binary.
The soy bit is not true directly, but possibly true from a deficiency standpoint. Gaining muscle mass and increasing testosterone without meat and animal products is certainly possible. But it is a great deal harder to do. It just is. If you’re the sort of person that believes in it from a moral and philosophical standpoint and is willing to therefore put in the extra effort to not let it affect your ability to “make gainz,” you’ll be alright.
But I’m guessing that’s the minority of the so called soy boys who develop low test and its various symptoms.

The rich can get an excess of testing, but the poor can’t get enough. Rapid testing has become the new velvet rope. Some are paying for rapid COVID-19 tests to get into parties in the Hamptons. Others in Long Island, N.Y., are renting mansions without testing. At the White House, masks are encouraged but not required. Capitalism has found its way into medicine. Life-saving technology, and the privilege to make risky decisions, both favor the wealthy.
Wealth shouldn’t determine testing availability. The federal government must step in to ensure all Americans are able to test; that’s as important as the vaccine.
There’s no question that testing saves lives, so much so that COVID-19 testing is crucial to opening up our economy. A positive test is also vital so that others can isolate themselves if sick and reduce the possibility of infecting others.
What would make things really equal is if nobody could get treated.
And- “no question that testing saves lives”? How does that work, exactly? Could somebody please explain the thought process there?
Because people who test positive can isolate themselves.
But likely won’t. ’Cause assholes, and all.
I think most people will but you’ll have the occasional stories like of that dude who still went to his wedding and people will wag their fingers.
Sure.
However, as a counterpoint, I have acquaintances who work for the local health hotline; they’ve told us stories over the months since March about people phoning in to their hotline and admitting that (a) they were COVID-19 positive and (b) they nevertheless went shopping at (for example) West Edmonton Mall (1,200 stores!) because they just couldn’t deprive themselves of that fabulous shoe sale! They phoned in afterwards because they thought they were being a good person for warning others. It never occurred to them to not do it in the first place.
Worse, according to the people I know, they tended to sound Asian over the phone. And they wouldn’t give their names and weren’t traceable, either. Funny that.
**HEAVY SIGH**
I’ve learned to hate people even more during this panicdemic
Medicine was a pristine wonderland of abundance and generosity, untainted by kkkapitalism, until President Cartoon Villain came along.
Yep, every health care worker lived in abject penury, ’cause they loved the rest of us so much.
I say Medicine needs way more capitalism in it. This vaccine development is a great example.
The solution is simple; the incoming Biden administration invokes the Defense Production Act (DPA) for tests, not just personal protective equipment (PPE), as he’s promised. The current White House has yet to invoke the DPA in a meaningful way to impel industries to make enough tests to match the needs of the nation. The DPA has been used routinely and has mobilized sectors of the economy. If Biden is willing to initiate the DPA for PPE, he can do the same for tests.
While we all may want to be able to buy whatever we want, this comes at a cost to others. Instead, the federal government must redistribute unused tests and force the production of new tests to increase our testing capacity. Large-scale proactive testing will allow us to suppress the virus and return to the new normal, allowing us to save lives.
This pandemic is highlighting stark cracks that free-market pharmaceuticals will not fix. Instead, it’s time for the federal government to step in with a unified approach. The Biden administration must not only respond to this moment but act in a way that begins to dismantle the ability of corporations to profit off of our suffering and put health before profits.
Totally not for socialized medicine. Honest.
1 out of 5 Americans will be substantially immune by the end of February.
Fuck. This. Asshole.
We have more than enough tests.
Were testing too many people and with too sensitive a test.
Yeah and it’s not like it’s not easy for anyone to get one now. Drive thru or drive in everywhere. One you take at home and mail in. Etc.
They’re ubiquitous.
If they tested the test it would fail.
It has less than a 2% error rate but that’s enough for 1000s upon 1000s of false positives. Still useful though.
“It has less than a 2% error rate”
How do they know?
Well obviously they inject you with COVID first for the purposes of science.
Back when the New Hampshire government restricted testing to those with symptoms, the positivity rate was about 10%.
“ the ability of corporations to profit off of our suffering and put health before profits”
This guy is a bigger dipshit than my coffee clerk.
Another failure of the completely unfettered free market.
So my mom was telling me she got a Christmas card from an old (seriously, he’s 103) neighbor, and he added a note at the bottom saying that it was too bad she had moved away because he would have asked her for a date now that she’s a widow (he’s a widower).
Cute
Awww…
Your Dad died?
A couple years ago.
Ah, sorry. I missed that news as we all go in and out of here.
Looks like its time to delete KodiTV….

Well, I tested negative for the vid. I still don’t really trust that result. I’ve never had a loss of senses of taste and smell before and it’s a known symptom of commie colds. Back to work tomorrow, where I’ll see if they make me pay for the time with sickpay. I couldn’t go in with symptoms, and I had/have symptoms. We’ll see.
Take sick time if you’re still sick. Your coworkers will thank you.
Risk management told me to come back, once the results came back negative. I’d rather stay out until after Xmas, personally.
We have a blanket policy if you are feeling sick don’t go to work. It has always been there but now there is no stigma for actually doing it. Generous sick days and I am sure it is abused but I am a fan because I was pissed af when I got sick when some schlub came to work with the flu in the before times and then I got the flu and I would be in a fighting mood if someone came to work now if they where sick. In normal times flu you stayed home until feeling better. Now we have “weeks” out for this horse shit.
I like the trend toward combining “sick days” with “personal days” because now I don’t have to worry about my boss not believing that I’m actually sick. And I don’t have to pretend to be sick when really I just want a day off 🙂
My boss asked me if I wanted to mix sick days and vacation days when I went hunting for a week. I was blown away.
Drink real beer and be a man!
