You fixated on Biden eh?

There is also something crass about having to convince Americans that bombing a country illegally is bad BECAUSE it's so expensive.

Fun fact: Canada landfilled some of its 2009 flu pandemic N95 supplies that had expired elastics, in earlier 2019. It didn't replace them... until 2020 when everyone else was scrambling.

Because production had increased, but also staff like in Canada, were not using them day to day, only sometimes.

Kai Trump is 18 years old. Maybe instead of using Secret Service agents as a production crew for grocery store jokes about β€œgoing bankrupt” while people go hungry, she can enlist in the military and go fight her grandfather’s war

Carney did what CPC leaders have been saying they wanted to do for more than a decade.

All one needs to know about why Scott MacFarlane -- one the of the network's most high-profile and respected correspondents -- left CBS News is spelled out in this tweet of his in January, where he unsubtly calls out his network for not airing his J6 deep-dive report.

It aired, instead, on the BBC.

Would it have been so much worse if it had been a nuke? Consider the fact that birth deficiencies and rates of leukemia and cancer in Iraq, post 2003- invasion, are worse than what was observed in Hiroshima. In Japan, rates of leukemia rose by 660% in the years following the bomb. In Falluja, it increased by 2,200%. The toxicity of war has never been greater, and we are in no way reckoning with
the scope of the horror that's been unleashed.

The real damage comes years later, with elevated cancer rates, leukemia clusters, respiratory disease, cardiovascular failure, neurological damage, reproductive issues.

This is chemical warfare, with delayed carnage. Worse than radiation sickness.

I am ashamed to be American today.

a picture of a huge, low, heavy cloud of black oil over Tehran

This is the cloud of oil currently hovering over Tehran, released when the US bombed the city's oil depots. A stew of particulate matter, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, benzene, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, heavy metals & volatile organic compounds is raining down into the city right now. 1/2

The risk hadn't really subsided though, that's the problem with Biden's approach in later 2021 onward.

Then why are you conflating the 2?

That would have been great, to obliterate, but Obama wanted to mend fences, didnt want W and Cheney in jail for war crimes, then failed to prosecute any of the Banksters as well following 2008.

Not exactly, no.
You don't give up after one half-hearted try (to dispose of oversupply), then not even market why they're needed. Not only useful for viruses, they also are needed for air pollution, something more common from wildfires too.

If he can't set a good example for smart people who care about themselves and their neighbours, that's not very good.

Nothing nuanced about them thinking I don't write or go outside, just because I criticized Biden's pandemic policies and malbehaviours.

@holdmybooks.bsky.social don't strawman me and turn off replies.
I'm outside every day. I write.
I live.
You think saying Biden sucked is obsessing about him. Maybe be shouldn't have turned into what Trump clearly is bad at too: being terrible at Public Health.

Thanks, I forgot they also gave those away. More than 1 per American. 2 years into the pandemic.
Then stopped it.

It's not the only reason. One big one is people in power stopped showing things are deadly serious.

Biden could have said,"Trump provided old equipment based on bad info. Here is better equipment that works." Been the good guy.

Part of why they wouldn't is because they weren't working well. No surprise, wrong masks. Like giving people rowboats and asking why they aren't all making it across Lake Ontario.

Wrong masks. Surgical ones are largely ineffective.

I can't name a world leader currently handling the pandemic well. You think Biden did. I think you're mistaken, as shown by the growing death toll and disability rate.

Again, that doesn't stop education.
And yes, corporations run the government in a fascist system.
