Recall that Twitter made Dr Atlas take this down:



After a short ban, he's back up. First tweet out of the gate:


"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

"And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth."

Senate Democrats blocked another coronavirus relief package proposed by Republicans during a floor vote on Tuesday. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) attempted to adjourn the upper chamber on Monday night as Republicans tried to pass additional relief. The GOP-proposed package also included additional funding for the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), which served as a lifeline for small businesses affected by COVID-19.

Leader McConnell and Senate Republicans pressed Senate Democrats to put the American people first, but the minority party blocked the stimulus package, again.

And the "experts" are just figuring this out now?

https://www.foxnews.com/health...sh-oral-rinses-study

This study by the Penn State College of Medicine, and backed up by two previous studies, states that 99.9% of human corona virus is inactivated by some mouthwashes.

So all this time, while all the media & the sheep were breathlessly awaiting Dr Fauchi's next announcement, the spread of this pandemic could've been slowed months ago by people using mouthwash?

Hardly IB, you need to do a bit more research before posting something like this. It does nothing to help educate people on C19. This is total BS as it relates to this pandemic or so called pandemic. Depending on your perspective.

How do you inactivate a virus? Is that like putting it to sleep for a while? Big Grin

Using mouthwash is a great way to eliminate oral bacteria - but probably not very effective against a virus.

I rinse my mouth with several ounces of mouthwash daily and find it very soothing and leaves a nice fresh taste. Grain alcohol is my preferred mouthwash type...

I prefer a good Kentucky bourbon myself.


On another note, DUH! Alcohol kills virus cells. In other news, water is wet!

Mouthwashes help reduce transmission by reducing the viral cells in your mouth, which is where transmission starts, ie, spit and cough, so gargle all day, every day, to reduce your orally transmitted viral cells. At least that's what it reads like...



Lead study author Craig Meyers, a distinguished professor of microbiology and immunology and obstetrics and gynecology, said the results show that the amount of virus (viral load) in an infected person’s mouth could be reduced by using these common over-the-counter products, ultimately helping to reduce the spread of the novel virus.

I don't know about yall, but I'm buying toilet paper while I can get the good stuff. I've still not recovered from that Costco pack of Marathon TP. Didn't think we were ever going to finish it.

Reminds me of the time this made it into house when our kids were younger. Our teenage daughter at dinner asked "Are we poor now", and explained she was concerned after using the TP.. Smile

And yes, we got some in April this year that we are still avoiding. Which monastery is that again?

I must have an uncultured ass. I prefer the cheaper costco branded stuff. And I have also been stocking up. Gold and silver are not that important when one is wiping his ass with newspaper. True wealth lies in a happy number 2.

We prefer the Costco Kirkland brand too. Marathon, nope. Trading/selling it is for the best.

Bunch of savages in this town. Why don't ya'll have bidet hose attachments for your porcelain thrones? Doesn't matter how lousy the TP is when you're only using it to blot dry.

Trump’s Greatest Accomplishments Are What He Hasn’t Done

Under immense pressure by the media and other Democratic operatives, at a time when nearly all global leaders were using the pandemic as an excuse to seize greater control, Trump did not.

Not Seizing Authority

Foreign leaders across the world have treated the coronavirus as an opportunity for unprecedented power grabs. China and South Korea track their citizens digitally. Israel suspended some courts. Hungary’s executive seized emergency authorities. Elections were delayed.

Domestically, governors banned children from going to school, banned people from going to church, and closed businesses for weeks and months at a time. Mask mandates were issued. Family gatherings were banned. Tracking of sick individuals was pushed.

But not Trump, the one the media constantly claim will do these things.

At no time has any member of Big Media raised significant concerns about the violations of Americans’ constitutional rights,  governors’ power grabs, or the risks posed to democratic governance. In fact, the media have gone after Republican governors who were less restrained in their violations of citizens’ rights, claiming they were bloodthirsty monsters. “Georgia’s Experiment in Human Sacrifice,” was the headline of The Atlantic’s article claiming that Republican Gov. Brian Kemp was overseeing, well, human sacrifice, by not using his power to shutter businesses more.

Ben Shapiro put out a video explaining why he’s voting for Trump this year after not having voted for him in 2016. In the middle of a litany of policy successes, he said, “He’s resisted using the federal government to control everybody’s life during COVID. That’s a big thing. This is the biggest government power grab during my lifetime, and Trump refused to do it.”

Under immense pressure by the media and other Democratic operatives, at a time when nearly all global leaders were using the pandemic as an excuse to seize greater control, Trump did not.

Keep in mind that much of the hysteria surrounding Trump has been based on unsubstantiated claims and predictions that he would seize power to accomplish his political goals and to punish his enemies in the press and elsewhere. Not only did he not do that in the three years before the coronavirus pandemic hit the world, he didn’t do it even when most other global leaders were using it as an excuse to expand their powers.

The left keeps claiming, all evidence to the contrary, that Trump is going to seize power.

Historian Timothy Snyder provided a great example of the histrionic claim this week in Salon. “Obviously, we are in a slow-motion Reichstag Fire right now. That is what is happening. Donald Trump is not as skilled as Hitler. He doesn’t work as hard as Hitler. He doesn’t have the same level of confidence as Hitler, but he’s clearly looking for that Reichstag Fire emergency. Trump tried to make Black Lives Matter into that emergency. ‘Antifascists’ and ‘thugs’ and ‘law and order’ and so on is part of that effort. Donald Trump keeps trying to make the Reichstag Fire work,” Snyder claimed, without evidence.

As “Alice from Queens” put it, “Timothy Snyder, in Salon, is insane. Trump was handed the mother of all Reichstag Fires — COVID-19 — and never came close to seizing emergency powers. The beef is that he failed to exercise authority! Has a major historian ever been blinder to the plainest refutation of his thesis?”

That Trump also responded modestly to the BLM riots that destroyed the downtowns of cities across the country further shows how wrong the establishment has been. Many Americans — in fact most, according to polls — were supportive of him sending in the military to quell the riots. He abstained. As Portland was rocked by continuous months of riots, federal agents protected some federal property and personnel briefly. Some Reichstag Fire response!
