Re. the HHS cuts. He was as civil as humanly possible, saying Trump probably doesn’t know he just fired someone who may have saved his life when he was sick with COVID. But he also said we will be paying for these decisions for decades from a public health standpoint if they are not rescinded.

(5,659 posts)No news, lack of policy, lack of care, and no interest in helping the public should a pandemic or new disease erupt here. We shouldn't have to live like that.

(5,659 posts)I was going to post a piece from the WIRE. They recommend that you may want to have a travel phone to go through customs with so they won't see anything. You also have privacy folder in android phones and Apple phones. You might also take an extra battery and put in a dead battery before you go through customs, or turn your phone off. It avoids them asking to go through your phone. Apparently if you don't agree to have your phone searched, they can make it an issue.

Aging low-life human thinks he’s God. And unfortunately, too many people (WAAAAAAAY too many people) feel compelled to agree.

Trump and a woman enter an elevator. The woman says, "Mr. Trump, if I press the button, the elevator will stop and I can give you a fantastic blow job."
He considers this for a moment and then asks,"Sounds interesting, but what do I get out of it?"
yes, that is the sentiment indeed
