Yeah, I just read hey would like to get checks out within the next three weeks I also read that the Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin is saying right now they are looking at plan to possibly give every american adult $1,000. If people have children they could get an additional $500 for each child. And then six weeks from now if this still a crisis there could a second disbursement of $1,000 for each adult/another $500 for each child. Here is an article talking more about this. And also what financial help may also be given to some businesses/industries:

Gawd CNN is like a broken record. Don Lemon does them no favors either. I had to change the channel to MSNBC.

I changed from MSNBC to ID channel.

So you were right. 

I imposed a bit of a social media blackout for the last month as it was too stressful but when the Super Tuesday results came in I broke it. I was watching it with a huge sense of relief and I turned to my husband and said "see! Khan was right!". Understandably, his next question was "who the hell is Khan?" I had to explain "oh, just someone on a message board who said wait until Super Tuesday". "Khan was right" has become a saying in my house when one of us says something nonsensical. So you now have  Z level famousness in Tasmania!

Khan Noonian Soong was the tyrant that started the Eugenics Wars on earth  in the 23rd century, before being defeated and...

oh. you're not talking about that Khan are you?

sorry.

it for the safety of all concerned. we have no idea what is going on worldwide....no need for anyone, especially the senior cast and crew members of any show, to put themselves and their loved ones at risk. thanks for posting.

trading halted today after Dow plunges 1,000 points.

this is a true S***show.

it is.

the lies. I mean the lies....

ok. when is this fool going to speak?

No, they've canceled.  Look upthread.

 

Trump is back to his fallback of trying to blame Obama for the lack of available testing, even though it was Trump who eliminated an entire department from the CDC, most pointedly, he eliminated the department that dealt with pandemics.

 

Yesterday I heard that 85% of the financial gains made during the Trump administration have already been frittered away.  This morning, I'm reading a news article that confirms as much. That's not on account of Obama, that is because the markets have absolutely no trust or faith in Trump or his hapless administration.

I read the same thing. now I just heard that in two weeks the entire nation will be on lockdown.....we won't be allowed to leave our homes. have you or anyone heard this?

That's a good question, People can just travel to the UK from Europe and then board a plane. I'm puzzled by the UK exemption for sure. 

Trump has businesses there.

the NHL and MLB should shut down as well. so many events here in St. Louis have been canceled.

This is spiraling out of control. Forget the economy which is going to crash massively, massive numbers of people are going to die, And who's in charge. A dementia laden psychopath and his surrogate son, Jared Von Frankenstein

The comment of the year.

isn't the UK in Europe?

As a non-American, what is it about Bernie politics / ideas that people don't like vs. Biden?

Does it all come down to health care for all?

Bernie talks a great game, but as like last time, when you get to specifics, he's out on left field. 2,000 bills with his name on them and only 25 have past since he has been in congress. and the stuff that he spews....and his people are as worst as trump's cult.

A very grainy 16mm copy of the short lived 1971-72 sitcom The Good Life. Larry Hagman, Donna Mills, and David Wayne star. Tony Orlando and Dawn sing the theme song.

 

 

Love the cast, but this was horrible.

Some of those replies were really something - I think my favorite was jeering that she was "angling for a book deal," even though she's a successful author already. 

 

I saw Joel Kim Booster in there fighting with people as well.

 

Bernie just breeds toxicity. 

 

On the plus side, the lighting will be very dark and we won't have to see Trump or his flunkies.

very true, but....would he still glow orange? and his dialogue...."Nikki, you know i am the greatest lover you've ever had..." "Victor, look it's my company ok? Now...look...wait...look....now, I am the greatest business man you have ever met, and all of yours and Jack's children are mine...I fathered them all...because I'm the greatest father of all time..."

Chief of staff Jill Farren Phelps will be a blast though.

How can she help write any legislation if she can't write a show?

BREAKING: Acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney is planning to resign. Per sources
