    Lolz, good work

    Bolton was one of those guys, that helped the US get into a war with Iraq. You won't hear that on CNN

    So the lefties here have been siding with an Iraq has WMDs guy over Trump

    Lolz, that embarrasing

    lolololol ... they didn't have them, huh? I wonder why it's not common to hear about that. Probably because it was heavily publicized and they don't want to admit it. Or maybe because there was never any proof - just unverified intel. Hmm. Don't know what to say about that. I guess we went to war with terrorism though; not with Iraq. At least that's my understanding; though collateral damage is incredulous in this case. Poor Iraq... :(

    Maybe it will be better one day. Investment in post-invasion Iraq - Wikipedia

    Yes, I actually read the article

    "Moody’s Investor Service noted 2020 will be “a very challenging year for the coal industry”, as it is one of the industries most heavily affected by the coronavirus pandemic"

    As we follow the news, we know all about Bolton all the way back to the Vietnam War.
    He's a war hawk and always has been, he's a conservative with a capital "C", an isolationist, hates globalism, hates Hillary Clinton, and has nothing good to say about Obama.

    He has been reported on multiple times, ad nauseum in fact, by CNN over the years.

    All of which makes his views and comments about Trump even more surprising.
    He isn't toting the Republican line, not defending a loser and incompetent president like his fellow party members.
    I find it shocking and devastating to Trump.

    You find it shocking and devastating to Trump do you? That he is now at odds with a guy that helped in the whole invasion of Iraq mess

    Think you might get your liberal card revoked for that one

    Bolton never served in the military. He's a chickenhawk.

    Saturday

    No COVID-positive staffers or anyone in immediate contact will be at today's rally or near attendees and elected officials,

    Sunday

    After another round of testing for campaign staff in Tulsa, two additional members of the advance team tested positive for the coronavirus. These staff members attended the rally but were wearing masks during the entire event.


    Those attending the rally had to agree to not to sue the campaign if they contract coronavirus,

    "By attending the Rally, you and any guests voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19 and agree not to hold Donald J. Trump for President, Inc.; BOK Center; ASM Global; or any of their affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, contractors, or volunteers liable for any illness or injury," the disclaimer attendees agreed to read.

    but you don't believe the virus is real, therefore, it has nothing to do with the decline of coal sales.

    As I recall, the post I was responding to was telling us that it was "moronic" to wear a face mask and not wear eye covering. I was explaining why many people who aren't morons might want to do that. My assessment
    seems to be consistent with what the medical experts are telling us. But of course you think you're the smart one. So tell us, great simian sage, what is so dumb about my statement.

    You hear plenty of that on CNN. In fact, most of the coverage portrays him as lower than a snakes hips. But still credible.

    The last package cost $3 trillion of borrowed money.

    Trump opens door to another round of stimulus checks, direct deposits

    excerpt:

    "WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump indicated Monday he's open to a second round of stimulus payments as the U.S. economy continues to reel from the coronavirus pandemic.

    Asked in an interview with Scripps local TV news whether he's going to give Americans another round of checks, Trump responded: "Yeah, we are. We are."

    "We will be doing another stimulus package. It'll be very good. It'll be very generous," Trump said."

    The coronavirus isn't fading away in Texas.


    Texas Governor Warns of New Restrictions as Virus Spreads

    Texas Governor Warns of New Restrictions as Virus Spreads

    excerpt:

    "(Bloomberg) -- Texas Governor Greg Abbott signaled he may halt or reverse the state’s economic reopening if the Covid-19 contagion continues to expand at what he called an “unacceptable rate.”

    Citing a doubling in the positive-test rate, as well as surges in new cases and hospitalizations, Abbott on Monday urged residents of the second-most populous U.S. state to voluntarily wear masks and take other precautions. Less than two hours after the governor spoke, updated health department figures showed the positive-test rate jumped to 9.51%, the highest since late April.

    Abbott’s remarks underscore a political quandary in Republican-led states that were among the vanguard in reopening across the U.S. While Covid-19 cases are rising, and events like President Donald Trump’s weekend rally in Oklahoma sow additional concern about more infections, the GOP governors’ all-in embrace of ending lockdowns makes it difficult to start reapplying restrictions to public life."

    I don't think you comprehend what I'm saying.

    I don't like Bolton, I don't like Bolton's policies.
    But he is a conservative and a Republican icon...yet he's going against Trump.
    He at least has enough patriotism and honor to defy this egotistical danger to the Republic.

    The coronavirus hasn't faded away in Florida either.


    We clearly haven't beat it’: Florida politicians alarmed over coronavirus spike
    The heightened urgency comes as the state saw its largest daily increase in new infections yet over the weekend.

    ‘We clearly haven't beat it’: Florida politicians alarmed over coronavirus spike

    excerpt:

    "Florida politicians signaled concern Monday morning over a dramatic uptick in the state's coronavirus infection rate, urging residents — particularly young people — to stay vigilant about social distancing as the state prepares to host part of the Republican National Convention in two months.

    “We are obviously extremely concerned,” Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, a Republican, said of the Sunshine State spike in an interview on CNN, noting that his city would not be moving into its third phase of reopening because of the increase in cases.

    Calling mitigation measures like wearing a face covering and social distancing “pretty basic,” GOP Sen. Rick Scott warned Floridians that the virus is “still deadly” and reiterated that it was imperative to stay focused on the continued threat."
