I wonder how many millions of dollars are earmarked for Planned Parenthood to “fight the virus.”
It’s a public good. Dead babies can’t catch a virus! /s

Not much different than shutting down the entire air traffic system on 9/11. We need to get a handle on this mess.
How to get a handle short of shutting down the country? ORrrrr.... we could just let people get sick and die. Ya know - the tautological “survival of the fittest”?

Or, we could just protect and isolate the at risk population. You know, rather then destroy the savings and wealth of every single middle class American that has worked their whole life to build something. What and who do you think is affected by a complete rout of 401Ks followed by massive inflation as they print trillions of dollars to pay to the lowest among us economically?

Like we have a handle on the flu? yet we don’t shut down the country for flu.
re: This coronavirus
- why test? ( I’ll wait but not too long )
- there’s no vaccine. (current flu shot is maybe 50% effective overall yet we didn’t shut down the country?)
- treatment is the same as the flu - to treat the symptoms, stay at home if not hospitalized.
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/preliminary-in-season-estimates.htm
“The CDC estimates that so far this season there have been 22,000-55,000 deaths, 36 million to 51 million flu illnesses, 370,000- 670,000 hospitalizations.”
and we still haven’t shut the country down?

That was an earlier bill, and Trump refused it, but I bet theyre trying to take advantage of this loophole to add it back in.

The devil is in the details.
This is a potential Christmas tree of goodies.
Read the bill.

The House was expected to make technical corrections Monday to the bipartisan measure, passed by the House early Saturday, but Gohmert is insisting on reading them Maybe he doesn't TRUST SanFran Nan, I certainly don't!

Louie says, correctly, “Bring them back, let them hack, but make them do their job, not scurry off like rats in the night”.
Louie has more balls then all the Democrat men and most of the Democrat women when it comes to getting an honest, working Congress.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
But Louie, dont you know how Pelosi works? You have to pass it first to see what in it!

Pelosi was already caught trying to add a planned parenthood clause.

I TRUST ANYTHING LOUIE GOHMERT SAYS OR DOES

I have met, spoke to and communicate with this fine man.
If there is a Swamp Drainer in Congress it is This Man Louie Gohmert!
As an ol Military Guy I know what is on the line and for this MAN I will put MINE on the line.
