It was weird having ‘Tax Day’ come up on my Google notifications for today, but it’s just been one weird year hasn’t it? There were two news reports this morning that struck me as karma. The first was the governor of Oklahoma testing positive for the coronavirus. What I find interesting about this is he had one of the most aggressive reopening plans out of all the states, and like tRump, rarely wears a mask in public. He also attended Donald’s embarrassing rally in Tulsa a few weeks ago, which their county health director said likely contributed to a surge in cases in the region. Even after getting the virus, the ‘gov’ has no plans to require masks be worn in public. Oklahoma had a record setting number 993 new cases yesterday, but he is probably a follower of Chuck Woolery, the ex Love Connection host. Do you remember the retweet Trump posted a couple of days ago from Dr. Chuck? If not, here it is:
Well, Woolery a couple of days later tweeted that his son tested positive for the virus and went on to say that he never said the coronavirus wasn’t real, so what was he meaning when he posts “the most outrageous lies are the ones about Covid 19,” and “Everyone is lying?” It appears to me that he is just like tRump and his allies who make a stupid statement or provide bad information and then come back a couple of days later with “that’s not what I said.” Twitter must not have believed his backtrack because I just went on Woolery’s feed and see that Twitter suspended his account two hours ago for presumably sharing false information about Covid 19. Don’t be like Chuck. And don’t be like this guy. A former mountain resident who moved over to Central Oregon who thinks tRump is the greatest thing since sliced bread and seems to be on some sort of “wear no mask” campaign. A post of his today.
And how about Peter Navarro, Trump’s top trade adviser, writing an op-ed in USA Today yesterday claiming that Dr. Fauci has been “wrong about everything I have interacted with him on.” Not a smooth move, Peter. Dr. Fauci’s public approval rating is more than double that of Peter’s Master and even Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell don’t agree with his assessment. These attempt’s by the anti-science White House to discredit Fauci is strictly a political move to take heat off the president for his dismal leadership related to the virus and in my opinion will backfire on them bigly.
Ivanka has done it again. It looks like she just violated another ethics rule by endorsing Goya beans. My guess is that she has never eaten Goya black beans, but since the Goya CEO sucked up to her daddy last week, which caused a boycott of Goya products campaign, she is going to show support for the CEO and hold that can of beans like a trophy. Her tweet:
Here’s what she should have tweeted,
Enough for today. Ramble at ya tomorrow. Ziggyman
