Still not seeing it. Settings > Blocking > Manage Blocking has text boxes to block users, messages from, invites from, apps, and pages. Typing Fact Checker into the general search box on the menu bar just brings up a bunch of users with that in their name, unrelated to the Blocking page.
Five of online retail giant Amazon’s foreign websites have been placed on a blacklist by the Trump administration.
Its e-commerce platforms in the UK, Germany, France, India and Canada have been added to a “notorious markets” register.
The US trade representative’s office said the sites facilitated the sale of counterfeit and pirated products.
Amazon said the move was politically motivated and that it has invested heavily to prevent illegal activities.
The trade representative’s office said that the adding of the Amazon sites was the result of complaints from US businesses over the sale of fake goods.
Experts, including Trump’s leading infectious disease specialist Anthony S. Fauci, have repeatedly cautioned that while there is some anecdotal evidence the drug shows promise, its efficacy must be validated through controlled scientific studies.
Zelenko consults frequently with some of Trump’s closest allies. Trump aides say he has been in contact with Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and other officials. In a recent interview, Trump attorney Rudolph W. Giuliani said he and Zelenko speak frequently — often more than once a day.
“He’s a very smart doctor,” Giuliani said. “I’ve seen an analysis of Dr. Zelenko’s patient list. There are thousands of people who have been helped by it.”
Giuliani, a familiar voice in Trump’s ear, promotes experimental coronavirus treatments
Corsi said he was referred to Zelenko by another doctor also interested in covid-19 and hosted Zelenko for the first time on his podcast earlier this month.
Corsi’s website, speakwithanmd.com, offers people the opportunity to schedule a virtual appointment with a doctor, by clicking on a button and inputting their name and address. It advertises a “low consult fee” of $59.95, as well as “Prescriptions Delivered Right to Your Door, Same Day!” through a partner.
The site claims to be linked with more than 625 health-care providers, spanning all 50 states. In a “Frequently Asked Questions” section, it says it is “designed to see and treat non-emergency type consultations,” though it lists “COVID-19” as one of many health problems its doctors can examine, along with constipation, allergies and the common cold.
On his website, Corsi describes Zelenko as an unpaid “medical adviser.”
https://www.rawstory.com/2020/05/woman- ... er-to-lie/A woman who had accused Dr. Anthony Fauci of sexual assault now claims she was paid to lie about the public health expert by a pair of President Donald Trump’s supporters.
The woman says right-wing provocateur Jacob Wohl and his frequent accomplice Jack Burkman persuaded her to cast Fauci as the assailant using details from an actual sexual assault she survived just after high school, and they paid her to do it, reported Reason.
If I were a betting man, I'd make you a wager.
Well, he does already have one felony charge pending. I am sure that one of his badly executed attempts with Burkman to smear someone is going to go horribly awry and he'll commit another felony that's really going to do him in.
The Trump administration is suing an orphanage in South Texas in order to exercise its eminent domain powers and obtain temporary access to the property to plan for construction along the border with Mexico.
In return for a year-long grant of access to the land, known as an easement, the federal government says it will pay the Sacred Heart Children's Home of Laredo, Texas, $100 as "just compensation."

The vote 59-37 vote Wednesday, with 60 needed to adopt the amendment, was a defeat for privacy advocates. Four senators weren’t present, at least one of whom would have voted in favor of the measure.

I have no doubts in the coming weeks we're going to find out there was a GOP memo circulated to all party members to organize and start this now - because Trump cannot campaign.“We must acknowledge that the harm caused by the initial threat of the coronavirus may have been amplified by the response of the executive branch of our State government in certain cases, resulting in unnecessary physical and economic harm to New Jerseyans,” they wrote.

His response:Something I like about Trump? He's old and will die soon? I mean, lots of terrible people have done a good thing here and there. That doesn't excuse the incredible harm he's done. The asshole has politicized a plague for his ego and profit. He has literally caused thousands of extra deaths. He's convinced a significant portion of the country that facts don't matter if they contradict their desires. He's encouraged violence as a solution to political disagreements. He's invalidated the law and removed all oversight from the office.
I don't care how many little old ladies he's helped across the street in the face of that.
And if you're President of the United States, the words you say affect its citizens. He's made the US a laughing stock with statements like "Super-duper missile."

That's the worst part of all this. They know they are lying to themselves. It is every part a cult.

Nah. They would literally be in cahoots. Not being sarcastic or dramatic.Kraken wrote: Sat May 16, 2020 1:14 pm The neutral space where we used to agree to disagree and then change the subject has all but disappeared. Our tribal identities were weaker when we argued over how big budgets should be or whether taxes should go up or down by a few percentage points or whether they should pay for guns or butter or whether we should raise or lower immigration quotas. Our disagreements are more fundamental now, and not subject to compromise. The sense that we're all Americans is just about gone; we no longer share the same reality.
I'll readily admit that I disdain trumpsters as much as they hate me, and I think those who believe that we can put aside our differences and come together for a common good are delusional. If we couldn't unite against the coronavirus, IDK what could ever bring us together. If the Russians invaded tomorrow, each side would accuse the other of being in cahoots.
Trump lost the popular vote by 3 million. He gamed the system to "win" the election by 77,000 votes spread over four states (his margin in MI was under 11,000), and he got those with Russian help. He is NOT a legitimate president.dbt1949 wrote: Sat May 16, 2020 6:26 pm When I see pictures of Trump and Pence I don't see our president and vice president.
