Botany
Botany's JournalI hate Mika Brzezinski ... She is a piece shit.
She just had to bring up Tara Reade even though she and her story have been totally discredited.
Both of Reade's lawyers work either for Trump and or Vlad Putin but Mika just had to end an interview
with multiple reporters and writers with, "Well do you think that Tara Reade will drag down Joe Biden?"
(very very rough quote)
She might as well go and work @ Fox.
Virus question.
Is the virus coming into the meat pack plants on the animals or with the employees?
We are going to be at 80,000 deaths from C-19 by the end of tomorrow and we will pass ...
.... the total # of Americans who died in WW I by the end of the month. BTW that figure is
116,000. And Fox News and 35% (guess) of Americans still support Trump. This is madness.
Why is Trump still in the White House? I know it is useless but still please call your senators
and congress critters and demand Trump's removal.

CONCLUSION/ A significant percentage of the U.S. COVID-19 outbreak is attributable to a federal response hobbled by Trump's secret side communications with China. That changed only in March—after it was too late.
This! Trump's corrupt relationship with China helped the spread of C-19

Never, ever forget: Trump's corrupt relationship with China
killed tens of thousands of Americans by enabling the pandemic to spread.

This Seth Abramson thread is astounding.

Do you think Trump and Pence are getting convalescent plasma treatments*?
* You harvest the antibodies from somebody who survived C-19 and give them to a patient
via a transfusion. Now how many people who have tested positive for the virus have been
around Trump and Pence?
This has shown to be a very effective treatment but it is not practical on a large scale.
This! A must read. A long list from Seth Abramson posted by LymphocyteLover

NY Times: In Japan, the 'Murder Hornet' Is Both a Lethal Threat and a Tasty Treat
In Japan, the ‘Murder Hornet’ Is Both a Lethal Threat and a Tasty Treat
Long before the insects found their way to American shores, some Japanese prized them for their numbing crunch and the venomous buzz they add to liquor.
But in the central Chubu region, these insects — sometimes called “murder hornets” — are known for more than their aggression and excruciating sting. They are seen as a pleasant snack and an invigorating ingredient in drinks.
The giant hornet, along with other varieties of wasps, has traditionally been considered a delicacy in this rugged part of the country. The grubs are often preserved in jars, pan-fried or steamed with rice to make a savory dish called hebo-gohan. The adults, which can be two inches long, are fried on skewers, stinger and all, until the carapace becomes light and crunchy. They leave a warming, tingling sensation when eaten.
The hornets can also give liquor an extra kick. Live specimens are drowned in shochu, a clear distilled beverage. In their death throes, the insects release their venom into the liquid, and it is stored until it turns a dark shade of amber.

He does not eat the bugs himself. “Even when I tell people, they’re going to sting you, they still eat them. They say it makes them potent,” he said.
With the US having just 4.25% of the world's population but we now have 32% of the known cases in..
.. in the world. So come on Fox News, Trump, and the Republican governors let's open it all back up. Because 50% of
the total # of the cases in the world is very doable.
On the C-19 outbreak: Now China made mistakes and was less then honest but they:
1) Isolated the virus and sequenced the C-19's genome in late November of early December.
2) They turned that information over to the W.H.O. and the W.H.O. passed that information
onto German scientists who used it to make a very good test for the disease. Trump refused
to use that test and now we and much of the world are dealing with a killer pandemic. That
very same test from the W.H.O./Germany was used to great success in Germany, Finland,
New Zealand, and Australia to help contain the disease.
Both Trump and Kushner knew of C-19 in November of 2019 and what did they do to help
get the country ready for the coming Pandemic? They invested in Hydroxycholorquine and
their own C-!9 test kits so they could make money from the disease.
Trump and Kushner also sent 18 tons of PPE to China in Feb. and that PPE equipment would
have protected doctors, nurses, and 1st responders form getting sick and in some cases dying
from C-19.
Trump is trying to blame China for his screw up.
