I'm not the first to make this association, but every time Drumpf gives a presser on COVID-19 updates, it's like watching Mirror Universe Evil Grandpa Simpson tell us a story:

Our President has lied so frequently with such ease about so many things for so long that when he conducts press conferences these days regarding a situation he can't use his carnival barker showmanship to bullshit his way out of, the things that come out of [Trump's] mouth just don't have a lot of credibility with me at a time when I want to be able to believe what my president says: all Trump needs to do at these press conferences is introduce the various CDC officials, step out of the way and let the people learned in science speak in factual terms about where we are at and what we need to do next.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

Missed this earlier and admittedly it was a while back.
It's a virus and not bacterial. It's not alive and antibiotics don't affect it.
I know there is a disclaimer about that at the end but still it's not a funny enough song to justify more shitty information at a time like this IMHO.
Judging by supermarkets I've been in over the last couple of weeks 95%+ of people don't get that because any soap with the phrase anti bacterial has been sold out.Last edited by Seshmeister; 03-24-2020, 02:29 AM.Comment

Corona Cunt of the Day 3-24-20: The World's Richest Cunt, Jeff Bezos
mintpressnews.com
Jeff Bezos, World’s Richest Man, Wants Your Donations To Help Amazon Employees
by Alan Macleod
Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, the world’s first centibillionaire, a man who vies with Bill Gates for the title of the planet’s richest individual, is asking the public for donations to provide basic support to his 800,000 employees who are suffering in poverty in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Bezos announced:
“We are establishing the Amazon Relief Fund with a $25 million initial contribution focused on supporting our independent delivery service partners and their drivers, Amazon Flex participants, and seasonal employees under financial distress during this challenging time.”
The fund will also support both employees and contractors around the world that face economic hardship due to natural disasters or unforeseen personal circumstances. Those who qualify can apply for a grant of up to $5,000.
“I’ve never been more proud of our teams around the world. People are supporting one another, taking care of themselves and others while also doing what we do best, which is serving customers,” said Beth Galetti, Senior Vice President of Human Resources at Amazon.
Amazon set up a relief fund for its employees and is asking us to donate.
Amazon is worth nearly $1 trillion.
Amazon paid a negative federal income tax rate in 2018. They paid nothing but got millions in government subsidies.
How is this real. https://t.co/MiLArAnTdA

Amazon workers are poor. Really poor. In Arizona, for example, the company’s own data suggests that one in three employees depend upon food stamps to put food on the table. It is the twenty-eighth largest employer in the state. However, it ranked fifth on the list for most employees enrolled in the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP). Across the United States, it is a similar story. In Pennsylvania, for instance, Amazon is the nineteenth largest employer but is in fifth place on the SNAP employees list of corporations. And amidst the deadly COVID-19 pandemic sweeping the globe, the job is one of the more dangerous around, as workers are constantly on the move, handling a great number of packages and in close proximity to others. Despite its poor pay, the job is considered essential to the upkeep of society.
I can’t even process this…
Amazon — you know, the one run by the richest man, the one whose sales have shot up during a pandemic — is doing an online fundraiser. Asking all of us to donate to support its warehouse temps & flex drivers hit by Covid.

In other news, Amazon employees in Chicago announced yesterday that, through collective action, they had forced the company to agree to paid time off for all U.S. warehouse workers, something that will be especially useful in the current circumstances. “Almost a year ago, in the summer of 2019, a small crew of us got fed up with Amazon’s bullshit and met up outside of work because we felt we had to do something,” they said, proclaiming victory.
In the U.S., the company is currently increasing recruitment to deal with a sharp surge in sales. On the other hand, the government of France has suspended all non-essential Amazon deliveries in a bid to cut down on contagion rates. The company has also been forced to halt price gouging on its website of key products like hand sanitizer.
While Bezos asks for donations, he appears to genuinely not have considered using his own wealth to help those in need. In 2018 he lamented that “the only way that I can see to deploy this much financial resource is by converting my Amazon winnings into space travel. That is basically it.” His employees might have other ideas about how he could use his fortune.Eat Us And Smile
