Since they're touting their fiscal responsibility and all, I'm just wondering where we could have done something differently and been in a better financial position today, but for Bad Ole Drumph!!!


Fiscal responsibility is about a balance sheet. What comes in and what goes out. They argue that buy reducing what comes in (by giving tax breaks to the top income earners), they increased the deficit irresponsibly.

Trump and Fauci have said take the vax. Now, what does harris do?
IF she gets vax, she lied and told the truth. If she does not get vax she lied and told the truth.
TDS causes people to box themselves in. Quite sad that people allow another person to have such a negative affect on themselves.


granted, her statement would have been airtight if she said if ONLY trump tells us to take it.... but any rational person understood that's what she was saying.

As you noted, she got the vax as soon as it was granted EUA.

Literally THE CURRENT PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT OF THE US started the vaccine hesitantly by PUBLICLY STATING that they WOULD NOT TRUST A TRUMP VACCINE!


Well they said they wouldn't trust it unless Fauci said it was ok:

Harris was asked in an Oct. 7, 2020, vice presidential debate if she would take a vaccine if the Trump administration approved one. Referring to the leading government epidemiologist Dr. Anthony Fauci, she said:

"If the public health professionals, if Dr. Fauci, if the doctors tell us that we should take it, I’ll be the first in line to take it. Absolutely. But if Donald Trump tells us that we should take it, I’m not taking it."

Not sure if this is intentional but man it's chef's kiss perfect bit of irony.

Of course - they are so predictable



Well yeah DHS did kinda predict this:

quote:

The Secretary of Homeland Security has issued a new National Terrorism Advisory System (NTAS) Bulletin regarding the current heightened threat environment across the United States. The Homeland continues to face a diverse and challenging threat environment leading up to and following the 20th Anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks as well religious holidays we assess could serve as a catalyst for acts of targeted violence. These threats include those posed by domestic terrorists, individuals and groups engaged in grievance-based violence, and those inspired or motivated by foreign terrorists and other malign foreign influences. These actors are increasingly exploiting online forums to influence and spread violent extremist narratives and promote violent activity. Such threats are also exacerbated by impacts of the ongoing global pandemic, including grievances over public health safety measures and perceived government restrictions.

In the Facebook Live video I just watched, the alleged Capitol bomb threat suspect suggests Biden's election was illegitimate, says Democrats need to step down, says "y'all need to understand people don't want you there."

Where is everyone getting the script from? Your primary care physician?


I got mine from Dr. Dolittle

But the updated info was from the CDC saying YES you still need to wear a mask even if vaxxed!!!

And the city of ATL just reinstated the mandate!

And the libs ignored it!


I'm not aware of a mask requirement outside in a city park.

I'm pretty sure it's recommended if youre in a packed crowded space and not vaxxed.
quote:

These bozos finally figured out the outdoor transmission was greatly over-hyped! NEVER did i wear a mask outside!


I don't understand how changing your behavior based on updated information is somehow some kind of gotcha.

Do people throw tantrums when hurricane forecasts change and they no longer need to evacuate like they were planning?
quote:

I was at Piedmont Park over the weekend, in midtown ATL, where liberalism is off the charts


I think the messaging has gotten thru that there's not really a need to wear a mask outside.
quote:

i kept hearing on the radio the high viral load measured was in the nose. I don't know how that translates to the rest of the body of a vaccinated person. Always follow the CDC science...aka the magic eight-ball


This is close to what I've heard. The vaccine ramps up immunity more in your lungs than in your nasal passages. Thus you have vaccinated people with sinus symptoms but not the pneumonia that has hospitalized and killed so many.
quote:

Can you read? Because I can read and I don't have to entrust my ability to understand or my ability to accumulate knowledge on a subject to anyone.



So let me ask you this... For you or anyone who's medical decisions you control... If you get covid and need medical attention will you decline any and all "experimental" therapies like Regeneron or the others?

If not, how are they diffferent from the vaccine?
quote:

Normal adult humans are absolutely capable of deducing information from data that the 'experts' are opining on on TV,


See this is where we disagree.

Most people don't understand probability and statistics.

Go to vegas and ask non-pro's. People that haven't studied it don't really get the notion of win probabilities over time (like when to hit or double down).

Another example would be randomly flipping a non-weighted coin 10 times. Most people would think you have a 50% chance of getting heads at least once.... That's wrong and it takes an understanding of the math to know why.

This guy is saying natural immunity doesn't work on the delta variant, however that statement pretty much directly contradicts the actual numbers and active studies being done and reported around the world. I'd like to hear him, or any expert, give an explanation as to why the data we are seeing before our eyes is contrary to their claims.



I hear you and understand the confusion..... but if 8 out of 10 cancer doctors are saying the same thing about an emerging idea in cancer treatment i'm likely going with the 8 rather than the 2.

This all boils down to trust in the end. We don't have the knowledge or expertise to tease out all of the nuances involved so we have to rely on those that do.
quote:

At this point, trusting numbers and the medical industry and the government is about zero.

What the CDC did was produce a fake fricking test, literally just making shite up.


This story says nothing about the Delta variant.... So i'm not sure what relevance it has to this discussion.
quote:

The CDC and other three letter agencies are purposely burying the number of vaccinated people that are infected, hospitalized, and die from getting sick from this virus. Now people are losing their jobs because their companies are following guidance from them in spite of this.


More from Giroir

quote:

"We have to get flu shots every year because flu changes. Delta has changed enough that our pre-existing natural immunity is probably not going to be as effective as we need it to be," he said. "One thing has proven true time and time again and remains true if you get vaccinated: You're 95% protected against hospitalization and death. Even though you could still get the virus and still transmit it, you're not going to die or get hospitalized. That's why you need to get the vaccine."
quote:

It's getting pretty clear that natural immunity is much more consistent and effective than the immunity you get from inoculation.


This is actually the opposite of true according to Trump's own Testing CZAR:

LINK

quote:

"What I said, if you're not vaccinated or you haven't had COVID before, it's a matter of time before you get Delta. It's really that contagious. What I'm concerned about, even those that have been infected before, more and more data are showing that the natural immunity doesn't transfer so well to Delta."

I plan to fight it and request a religious exemption. I just got a 4 page document from my pastor today for it. I haven’t gotten to read it yet to see how he’s addressing it.


I wonder what the bible says about bearing false witness:

If that doesn’t work, I was able to get a vaccination card from a nurse and will upload it to our credential app


quote:

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) became one of the latest high-profile figures to get sick with Covid-19, even though he's fully vaccinated. In a statement Monday, Graham said it feels like he has "the flu," but is "certain" he would be worse if he hadn't been vaccinated.

While it's impossible to know whether that's the case, public health officials are grappling with the reality of an increasing number of fully-vaccinated Americans coming down with Covid-19 infections, getting hospitalized, and even dying of Covid. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) insists vaccination is still the best course for every eligible American. But many are asking if they have better immunity after they're infected with the virus and recover, than if they’re vaccinated.

Increasingly, the answer within the data appears to be ”yes.”

Why does CDC seem to be “ignoring" natural immunity?


Here's another anecdote which suggest natural immunity alone isn't sufficient:

LINK

quote:


NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Republican Rep. Clay Higgins of Louisiana, a critic of mask mandates and public health restrictions during the pandemic, said he, his wife and son have contracted the coronavirus.

He made the announcement on Facebook Sunday night. He said he and his wife had been infected last year, but this time around is much more difficult. He has not said whether he has been vaccinated.

“This episode is far more challenging. It has required all my devoted energy,” he said. “We are all under excellent care, and our prognosis is positive.”
