Eli Lilly Co. In Indianapolis has told employees. Stay home

Starting tomorrow. Work from home. So for anyone who still thinks this is a hoax, a company that hires microbiologists and epidemiologists out the wah-zoo has just told them to stay home.

In other news from Indianapolis, the second confirmed case is someone who attended a BioGen Conference in Boston recently.

The first confirmed case was a man who attended a "business conference IN BOSTON" recently.

Things that make you go hmmmm ?

Why can't we just license a test kit that we know works from another country?? Manufacture here?

Somebody else has already made one.
Why do we have to re-invent the wheel with Trumps Dismantled CDC?

We could even call them the Trump Corona test kits.
He likes to license and brand brand with his name right?

I spoke to two sane Republicans today who think the Republican Convention should ditch Trump

Couldn't Medicare form a co-op to buy a Corona vaccine from the first country to develop it?

Then the co-op could contract with American Drug companies to just use their facilities as mass production to get it out there?

IMHO, This would be a great end-run around AZAR and all his babble about needing private investment to get it done. One of the socialist democracies in Europe is going to get there first, just have our government buy it from them.

Now. I know this is not how any Republican would do it, but maybe a Dem could campaign on it to show how capitalism is a broken wheel on fast solutions in medical innovation, especially since the Republicans have largely dismantled the CDC.

Has Trump turned off SDNY investigations into himself?

I have a friend telling me something along those lines happened yesterday during his Pardon Party.

I've found a solid running mate for any of our candidates.

Michelle Grisham, the Governor of New Mexico.
Check out her credentials on Wikipedia.
She's a Democrat.

Speeding up an older computer

The one thing that has just helped mine the most is DRIVER UPDATES.
I bought the Avast package that can check and update drivers.
Updated the drivers and this laptop is suddenly popping right along. Snappy City.

FYI. IMHO.

This trial is a mockery of a travesty of a sham !

Four minutes to make you feel a little better.

I think there is a possibility Pompeo and Mnuchin are now running the government

They get input from Pence, Barr, Mulvaney, McTurtle, and McCarthy. So of those seven, a 4-3 vote decides.
Trump is just window dressing and a loud mouthpiece who gets too involved sometimes, so they medicate him and send him out to reality rallies.
I noticed today all the gaslighting was being done by Pompeo with Mnuchin standing next to him.
McAdderall probably coming down from last nights rally. All he really has to do is get ready for the next one of those.
