    This is scary. Why would someone want to hide that specific information ahead of time? Also, that someone is a puppet of an enemy state and couldn’t have mishandled the previous infectious disease outbreak any worse. And last time, he disbanded the federal epidemic team before COVID came out. This is like evil-villain level foreshadowing.

    If you care about your health or your family’s health, yall need to move to a blue state quickly and hunker down for the next 4 years. This madman is going to do everything he can to weaken and separate the union. We need to switch from progress to containment mode.

        What an easy task! Let’s uproot the entire family’s social bonds and connection to the culture because the president for the next four years is a piece of shit. Possibly learn a whole new language, possibly set the kids back years in school, possibly lose a career, possibly have to be poor for years while studying for certification exams, possibly deal with xenophobia. Spend thousands of dollars to see if you can get approval. Forever be an immigrant on someone else’s land if you’re lucky. Prove to Trump and your soon-to-be old neighbors you really disapprove with this one easy step 👌

      Well, there may be an imminent incoming pandemic, or it’s just normal fascism things, like turning off all public information and then whitelisting propaganda-safe data to be turned back on when it’s vetted. Can’t really tell which possibility is a worse sign of things to come.

        Could be any disaster:

        • turn off WHO
        • disband FEMA
        • disband Aviation Safety Committee

        Now there’s no one left to say the administration handles the next disaster poorly

        That’s what I can’t stand about these types of people. There’s never any definite anything because they are working on constant contingency, so one can’t prepare. You just have to be ready for everything at all times. It’s exhausting.

      They want to outsource and privatize everything, lining their friends pockets and getting kickbacks. “Small government”, huge industrial complex contractor.
