The real question is what else is going on that Trump is trying to distract from with that delaying election tweet?

Moving to remove troops from Germany after speaking with Putin?
The Axios interview?
Herman Cain catching 'rona at his rally and dying?
The general 'rona deaths and cases numbers?
Trying to steal the spotlight from John Lewis/Obama?

I think it’s him realizing he has no chance at winning in November given the current state of the country.

Well, yes, but the only reason to put that out in public is to make people freak out and dominate a news cycle

Most of the bourgeois I've talked to over the last 3 months have at one time or another insisted that the extra $600 was disincentivizing a return to work, often unsolicited, and never germaine to whatever it was we had been discussing.

Quote from: Diderot on Poorhouses

Wherever moderate work suffices to provide for the needs of life, and wherever a little economizing in times of health prepares a resource for a prudent man in his age of infirmity, there will be few poor people. Wherever moderate work suffices to provide for the needs of life, and wherever a little economizing in times of health prepares a resource for a prudent man in his age of infirmity, there will be few poor people...

I cannot count those young and vigorous lazybones as poor. Finding easier and more substantial aid in our misguided charity than in what they would procure by their own labor, they fill our streets, our churches, our highways, our towns, our cities, and our countryside.

Those vermin can exist only in a state in which the value of men is unknown. To make the condition of the professional beggars and the true poor equal by mixing them up in the same houses is to forget that there are uncultivated lands to clear, colonies to populate, manufactures to support, and public works to continue.

$600 x 52 weeks = $31,200

People basically arguing for a $15 a hour job. They should extend it, and just code them as employed by government to handle day to day governmental tasks of not dying and not clogging the hospital system.

A long, long time ago I read an email conversation between ownership and management where an owner indicated that they tried to help recently laid off employees claim unemployment (they felt bad about the necessity of them) but discovered that they had no idea how to fill out the claim paperwork and left the separated employees to fend for themselves. This was a business that operated in the payroll sector.

I don't understand why it's so hard to find these PUBLICLY RELEASED DOCUMENTS

Like where is the actual official source?

When I google "ghislaine maxwell documents" and other such similar Google search terms I mainly get news websites. Got lucky that this website seems to have uploaded the whole thing I think?

https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/secret-jeffrey-epstein-documents-have-been-released-by-court-order-read-them-all-here/

Just have to scroll a little bit. It's just above the comments section of the website. The only other "source" that I found was behind a fucking paywall (https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/4355835/giuffre-v-maxwell/?filed_after=&filed_before=&entry_gte=&entry_lte=&order_by=desc) which is utter bullshit.

Isn't there some official court website where one can easily find everything that is available to the public apparently?

Remember the national testing plan?

https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2020/07/how-jared-kushners-secret-testing-plan-went-poof-into-thin-air

Quote

By early April, some who worked on the plan were given the strong impression that it would soon be shared with President Trump and announced by the White House. The plan, though imperfect, was a starting point. Simply working together as a nation on it “would have put us in a fundamentally different place,” said the participant.

But the effort ran headlong into shifting sentiment at the White House. Trusting his vaunted political instincts, President Trump had been downplaying concerns about the virus and spreading misinformation about it—efforts that were soon amplified by Republican elected officials and right-wing media figures. Worried about the stock market and his reelection prospects, Trump also feared that more testing would only lead to higher case counts and more bad publicity. Meanwhile, Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House’s coronavirus response coordinator, was reportedly sharing models with senior staff that optimistically—and erroneously, it would turn out—predicted the virus would soon fade away.

Against that background, the prospect of launching a large-scale national plan was losing favor, said one public health expert in frequent contact with the White House’s official coronavirus task force.

Most troubling of all, perhaps, was a sentiment the expert said a member of Kushner’s team expressed: that because the virus had hit blue states hardest, a national plan was unnecessary and would not make sense politically. “The political folks believed that because it was going to be relegated to Democratic states, that they could blame those governors, and that would be an effective political strategy,” said the expert.

That logic may have swayed Kushner. “It was very clear that Jared was ultimately the decision maker as to what [plan] was going to come out,” the expert said.

On April 27, Trump stepped to a podium in the Rose Garden, flanked by members of his coronavirus task force and leaders of America’s big commercial testing laboratories, Quest Diagnostics and LabCorp, and finally announced a testing plan: It bore almost no resemblance to the one that had been forged in late March, and shifted the problem of diagnostic testing almost entirely to individual states.

They thought it was just going to decimate blue states and go away.
