Pence named Coronavirus Czar

White House announces coronavirus 'coordinator' to lead response under Pence
Ambassador Debbie Birx, who will report to Pence, serves as the U.S. government's leader for combating HIV/AIDS globally, according to the White House.


Wow, Pence is the Coronavirus Czar. Does he include Gay Conversion Therapy?


So the guy who said Mexico would pay for the wall and Putin didn't meddle and Kim was giving up his nukes and Bone Saw Arabia didn't kill a journalist and trade wars are easy to win just assured us that the coronavirus is no big deal. I feel so f--king much better now, don't you - Jeff Tiedrich

Bernie Bullies With a Bullhorn

Email from a Bernie Bro

Dear Lisa

Your recent post: "Florida Dem Mocks Bernie Over Castro Praise
A Democratic Florida lawmaker is likening Sen. Bernie Sanders’s (I-Vt.)
comments about former Cuban leader Fidel Castro to President Trump’s widely
criticized response to the Charlottesville, Va. protests.
“Saying a murderous dictator wasn’t so bad because of a literacy program is
like saying ‘there were very fine people, on both sides,’” state Sen.
Annette Taddeo tweeted Monday.",...was so ironic I felt I had to write.
I've just finished a book, "The Havana Mob", detailing America's foul
behaviour in Cuba over a hundred year period. Supporting murderous
dictators, U.S. government-backed corporate theft, Mafia casinos and
brothels, the exploitation and prostitution of the poorest Cubans, murder
of opposition members: there really was no crime too heinous for the U.S.
to take part in or sanction 'til Fidel threw you out.
So an when an establishment democrat rubbishes Bernie for pointing out that
the social services are better in a third world country that the U.S. has
kept that way for a century, you think it appropriate to publish it, along
with the rest of your anti-Bernie posts. you're wrong about Bernie, Lisa
and your mis/disinformation about him is doing your birth country a
disservice. Or, like Drumpf, are you trying to tear the place to pieces?

Time will tell.

Wal


Hi Wal from Australia. I hope Australia heals soon from all the bush fires.

I grew up in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. around kids whose parents fled Batista's corrupt regime which made all those dirty deals with dirty Americans. I hid under my desk at school with dog tags hanging around my neck doing drills in case a Russian nuke was hurled at us from Castro's Cuba 120 miles away.

What good is Castro's healthcare/literacy to those unknown thousands who were murdered or tortured?  Rep. Taddeo was right and Bernie may lose Florida if he continues on the pro-Castro path.

I haven't read "Havana Mob" but I lived it in South Florida and read the Miami Herald's coverage of Cuba and the Mafia for six decades. 

Wal, you know how I choose a candidate? By their accomplishments and voting record. It is that easy for me. Bernie has no accomplishments and his voting record is pro-gun and pro-Russia. And he's not a Democrat. So he was always a no vote from me and most Democrats. But, if he wins the primary I will support the Democrat's choice unlike Bernie Bros in 2016.

Bernie is All Talk No Walk. Just as Bush was All Hat No Cattle. People pretending to be something they are not.

The next president needs to have the expertise and world wide connections to mop up after Trump and the GOP. We do not need another "D.C. outsider experiment"  who yells a lot and has angry followers.

Yeah, Wal, I'm tearing apart the country like Drumpf by pointing out Bernie's inadequacies. Seriously Wal? After Bernie says he wants to burn down the Democratic Party for the past 20+years and wants my vote? 

You Bernie Bros are all alike, you go for the jugular but you trip on your dick.

Sincerely,
Lisa

Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

Deep apologies for skipping today's edition

My "daughter" got arrested for macheting watermelons.  Let me start at the beginning.

Her son JJ was heading into town on his motorcycle with his fiancee. A car in front of him was driving crazy, stopping, speeding up, weaving, etc. Finally the car stopped and JJ pulled up next to him and said "are you crazy?" The driver got out of his car swinging a machete. JJ got off his motorcycle and said to drop the machete and fight like a man and put his fists up. This is midday, mind you.  The driver hit JJ 4 times on the top of his helmet with the machete, once on the bicep and once on his baby finger. No cut on the bicep but when he hit his finger the machete shattered into pieces because he hit the metal motorcycle handlebar, too.

In the meantime JJ's trembling fiancee called my daughter who was only moments away. Once she arrived she argued with the driver and chopped up his watermelons with her machete, 10 of them to be exact.Tica mothers are very protective.

This is the prosecutor's office waiting room. The reflection
in the window shows a courtyard behind that has a kiosk that
makes great empanadas.
Well, the police arrive and arrest the driver and my daughter after a long discussion. JJ is well known, he's a professional surfer and instructor, not a troublemaker. Of course the police knew him and my daughter after meeting one of the police women decided to go fishing this weekend. Even though she was "arrested" she wasn't brought to jail -- she just had to show up to court today. My God, nothing like that happens in the US during and after an arrest.

So we went to the courthouse today and the arrest was thrown out the window after a couple of hours of meetings and paperwork. She did pay 5000 colones for macheting the 10 watermelons (around $8)

So, I wanted to be with my daughter when she went to court today.

The day turned out to be quite productive. Shopping was on top of our list after the arrest was thrown out. I FINALLY was able to purchase an air conditioner while I was in the big city to avoid delivery charges. So I will also avoid melting into a puddle! Next project is to get it installed! Yee Haw. Thank you everyone!

I will return tomorrow with a fresh edition.

Thank you for stopping by and for your patience.

Pura vida.
