Secret recording shows GOP lied to public about virus

Um, South Korea and Hong Kong did. We were warned, too, but Trump thought that golfing was more important.
Uh huh...so three weeks ago MY senator was saying it was more akin to the 1918 flu but he didn't grasp what it "would" be. Three weeks ago he was telling a select few to reconsider travel to Europe but he didn't grasp what it "would" be.
Couldn't publicly contradict the president, could he?
Lots of people did. Experts in Biology and the health care industry have been sounding the alarm since the beginning of February. But, none of that made Fox News, of course.
Has the deflection started yet?
EDIT... never mind, just read post #7

If true, that's certainly bad. Not sure I consider Paste Magazine as a reliable source though - at the very least, I've never heard of it. I would think that would be all over Fox if they could verify it.
Amazing how History repeats itself

It is long but that is a great read. Everyone initially tried to cover it up for fear of messing up the economy...

Watch the Coronavirus Capitalism video piece that I posted and think about why a party in power might delay communicating the severity of an issue.

When your parents dropped you on your head as a child, was it on concrete or marble?

This is unconscionable and whoever sent out that guidance should be fired and the Biden campaign should issue an apology.
See how easy that is, conservatives? You don't HAVE to say everything your Dear Leader did was "perfect."
I posted something similar a week ago. People don’t want to think critically about this using the amazingly useful resource that is the historical record, and the patterns of behavior easily conveyed therein.
What do you mean, "if true"? Did you open it up, scroll to the bottom, and listen to Biden's Sr. Campaign Advisor, Symone Sanders, say it to Chris Cuomo on CNN? What magazine reports it is irrelevant.
A good listen. Though, many free market purists would not call Milton Friedman a "free market" guy. The withholding tax during WW2 was his brainstorm. That does not take away from the content of the message.
I would like to know who, if anyone, shorted airline stocks and other industries, just prior to the market collapse. Look into that for me, wouldja?
Don’t issue an apology. That will just draw attention to it.
The other side never apologizes for sh*t.
It’s time to start playing by the same rules.

Disagree.
Continue to demonstrate to the country that some still believe in accountability and taking responsibility.
The day a Democrat says this:
Is the day they lose my vote.
I don't typically click on links that seem questionable to me. In this case, I saw the link led to Paste Magazine and chose not to click on it. I hope you would agree that we've all seen many, many links regarding news topic x y or z that linked to websites that weren't legit sites.
I'm honestly surprised I haven't seen this from other news sources as well. You'd think conservative media sites would be all over it.
There's a reason world leaders throughout this planet request meetings with Naomi Klein. I can't recommend her books strongly enough.A good listen.

What does that have to do with anything? Fox News coverage is obviously slanted conservative.
There's statist left and there is statist right. If the unwashed can't grasp this, I don't know what to tell you.
But... we need some strategies as to how to get the progressive ideas to overtake the ones that the owners of the country will ultimately get, if no strategies exist.

Reminds me of the famous Aesop ant and grasshopper fable.
The U.S has been in grasshopper mode for decades.

This is 10 times worse than whatever the hell Martha Stewart did to land in Club Fed
