She had no inside info. She just pays attention to the news.
I hope the SEC doesn't come for her before she finishes my return.
I can't afford to hire Jim Malone to bail me out.

Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus
as of 6pm
April 6 (GMT)
27386 new cases and 1176 new deaths in the United States
An estimated additional 180 - 195 deaths per day occurring at home in New York City due to COVID-19 are not being counted in the official figures. "Early on in this crisis we were able to swab people who died at home, and thus got a coronavirus reading. But those days are long gone. We simply don't have the testing capacity for the large numbers dying at home. Now only those few who had a test confirmation *before* dying are marked as victims of coronavirus on their death certificate. This almost certainly means we are undercounting the total number of victims of this pandemic," said Mark Levine, Chair of New York City Council health committee [source]
A study by disease modelers at the University of Texas at Austin states that "Given the low testing rates throughout the country, we assume that 1 in 10 cases are tested and reported. If a county has detected only 1 case of COVID-19, there is a 51%
chance that there is already a growing outbreak underway" [source]

If it ain’t Boeing, I ain’t going. Good call.
Perdue should have made that call, too.
Fox anchor: Can you tell me your thoughts on the drug that is used normally to treat malaria.
Dr. Haseltine: It's sad to me that people are promoting that drug.
Anchor: But what about the anecdotal evidence?
Haseltine: That's complete and utter nonsense. Irresponsible.

Oh yes you can!
Rates are way different for active and retired military and law enforcement!
In addition there is a “LaxPower” discount applied too!

In over his head. This is what he has been for years. He can’t do a “cut....take 12” like he did during his apprentice days.

BS.
There was NO ONE who didn't know of FDR's physical issue.
The degree of pain he was in, probably not, but absolutely everyone knew he was in a wheel chair.
https://www.businessinsider.com/how-fdr ... ing-2019-4
"The man who used a wheelchair and couldn’t get to the bathroom on his own “made everyone believe he stood up to greet them,” Mr. Ward said. “He was an absolute magician.”
The modern view “is to see a kind of conspiracy on the part of Franklin Roosevelt to hide the fact that he had this disability from the public,” Mr. Woolner said.
But he added that the public was well aware of his polio; there were fund-raisers every year for research into the disease. What the public didn’t know, he said, “was the extent of his disability,” his ability to put people at ease somehow convincing them that he had overcome it.
Political necessity required an image of strength and health while running for election as the country struggled with the Depression...."
Watch this clip from PBS series "The Roosevelts" and you will note that Ward nearly breaks down after describing Roosevelt's initial situation after contracting polio - Ward, it seems also contracted polio as a child.
You might also get some insight on leadership and how to project a positive image to people in a crisis when you're simultaneously in a personal crisis of your own and scraed sh*tless yourself
Yes, FDR was a flawed person (aren't we all in some ways) but IMHO he ably led the country through two of its greatest crises regardless of his personal shortcomings . Sadly for all of us, none of this applies to the current occupant of the WH.
Simple question -- did contemporary media show images of FDR in a wheelchair or not ?
We don't make mistakes, we have happy accidents.

OMG, even MDLaxfan76 falls for the imbecility.
Trinity must be a Morning Joe disciple, since I just posted about this Dem/media windup idiocy on 'Media Matters'.
Man, I feel for Libs. Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life. My brain hurts from just having watched that clown show. Quick summary:
If you invest in a mutual fund or any fund, you're now responsible for the mutual fund managers' equity, bond, commodity, and cash decisions and allocations. In fact, you must now participate in all investment decisions!
