"Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) was accused by Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy of attempting to fire air traffic controllers despite the series of recent plane crashes, according to The New York Times."

"At another point, Musk suggested that air traffic controllers hired through DEI programs were responsible for inefficiencies in control towers, though when pressed, he failed to provide specific examples."

Did you read the articles or only repost an anonymous meme? In contrast to the BLM protests which were typically held outdoors with some protesters wearing masks, Trump's Tulsa rally was a packed indoor event with unmasked participants positioned shoulder to shoulder for a length of time, conditions idea for the transmission of the virus.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma’s former state epidemiologist warned that President Donald Trump’s rally in Tulsa in June could lead to as many as nine deaths and 228 new cases of COVID-19, according to documents released Wednesday.

I'm pretty sure a BLM riot... ER "PROTEST" lots of transmissions occurred, just as many did at the Trump rallies. basically if you were around other people you were catching it. what the media did was lie and give a pass to the bullshit mostly peaceful riots and excoriate the Trump rally. But that's what leftists do, twist and lie.

I realize Ed, that as the dumbest poster on the board, you lose brain cells every time you try to concentrate, but a virus doesn’t ask itself if someone is a Democrat or a Republican before it infects someone. It really can’t. A virus has no ability to know which way someone is going to vote, and it certainly can’t selectively infect Republicans more aggressively.  

 
Covid infections almost never happened outdoors. As the virus itself evolved in laboratory conditions, to be highly communicable, it only infected people indoors.  

 
What Newsweek was doing was lying for political purposes, because believe it or not, journalists are a fuck ton stupider than virologists.

While a virus doesn't have political aspirations, the conditions under which it can spread and replicate are chosen by  
 politicians, wanting to make a political statement. Trump and his handlers were warned by state virologists of the high risk of infection with a close order indoor rally, but they chose to ignore that risk in the face of political gain. As stated by another poster, Herman Cain participated in the rally and died ten days later from covid, as did many others.  My conclusion is that you are even dumber than a journalist.

Just dumber than a termite. Why did Covid spread quickly indoors and not outdoors? Because of air flow. If you’re in a room with 8 foot ceilings you were at higher risk than if you were in a room with 10 foot ceilings. In a massive stadium, it’s no different than being outdoors. Below is an image of the lobby of the building where the Trump rally took place. Herman Cain didn’t die because he attended a Trump rally. He already had Covid.

The Trump superspreader event wasn't held in the lobby but inside the stadium where they attendees were purposely packed together, so media photos wouldn't show any empty areas. And stop calling Jesus Christ stupid!

I noticed there are no MAGA hats or signs in your photo. It's dumb to post a stock photo of the lobby and make us believe it represents the MAGA rally. Nobody stays out in the lobby for a stadium event.

"A photo taken at the rally showed Cain, without a mask, sitting closely to other people who also were not wearing any face coverings. A statement on his Twitter account said he tested positive for COVID on June 29 and was hospitalized July 1 because his symptoms were serious." - AP

His infection timeline falls within the COVID incubation period of 2 to 14 days.

Maybe look and see how packed those BLM “protests” were. Nitwit.

At least they were practicing safe distancing! Trump Tulsa rally attendance was disappointing, and they packed everyone into the lower level, where it would make for better media optics, and attendees could expose each other to infection.

If that photo is real, it's of a BLM outdoor rally, not a MAGA indoor rally. What's your point??

He must wake up in a new world each day. We already established that the Trump rally was as far as the Covid virus is concerned, an outdoor rally.

Just so we're clear here... Are you saying that BLM protesters practiced safe distancing during their "Protests?"

They were wearing masks, which MAGA doesn't believe in using.

The Cochrane Review determined after 15 randomized control trials that there’s no point in masking. It doesn’t provide any protection. For the same reason putting up a chain link fence doesn’t keep out mosquitos. It’s even dumber to wear a mask outdoors. Not as stupid as wearing a mask while driving alone in your car though. You know that saying that sunlight is the best disinfectant? There’s a truth to that.

…when I just wrote a page full of criticisms of him. Even Politifact couldn’t hold their nose for the drink bleach hoax.  

Chlorine sprays and UV light has long been used to disinfect medical equipment and even entire hospital rooms. UV light is often used in meat processing plants to ensure sanitation.

You just can't pass up on the insults, can you? It's a sign you're losing the debate. It's a common misconception that covid masks protects the wearer against contracting the virus, when it's the other way around. A mask helps the wearer from spreading the virus, if they have it. In other words, I wear a mask to protect you; you wear a mask to protect me. If enough people in a group wear them, it affords increased protection for the heard. You're correct in that riding in a car alone doesn't increase your own protection, but if there's a group, and one of the riders has the virus, everyone wearing a mask offers the rest of the group some protection against contracting it. A covid mask is not the same as an N-95 mask. You say sunlight is the best disinfectant. I can't argue with that but note that in the BLM photo the rally is outdoors.

Quite frankly I’ve bitten my tongue for a while now. I noticed you were a few sandwiches short of a picnic for some time. Here’s a thought experiment. Suppose you’re in a room, say 15 feet by 15 feet, with a 8 foot ceiling. The room has two doors, one on each side of the room. You’re sitting in the room. In walks someone who has Covid. He stops and says hello and leaves the room 30 seconds later. In walks another person with Covid and does the same thing. A dozen more people do this over the next few hours. Let’s call this Exposure Experiment A.  

 
The following week you’re in the same room, and in walks one person who has Covid. This person sits down and stays in the room with you for the next 4 hours. Let’s call this Exposure Experiment B.  

 
In which experiment are you more likely to catch Covid? A or B?

Let’s just say you go with B (I know I’m tipping off slow Eddie here) but again going with B. You catch Covid and then recover from it. Why go get vaccinated AFTER the fact?

No kidding! It’s madness to vaccinate for something that you already have immunity from. It would make you sicker by definition. And yet, no one tested for prior immunity before giving people shots. This is how you know it was a scam.

I had never read the full transcript. Trump was asking if these ideas had merit. Willy’s right in no way did he suggest this was a course of treatment.  

Sooooooo looks like icky is caught propagating yet another bit of  debunked  BS from the lefts MSM. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Seriously it’s as obvious as the paint on the walls but “you’re” choosing to ignore these facts.  

This is yet another example of blue stained brain syndrome the left suffers from.

Trump clearly isn’t a doctor. I wouldn’t expect any politician to be a doctor or medical researcher. He was talking to one of the White House medical researchers who was discussing ways to treat Covid at a time when we didn’t have much to fight it. The doctor suggested using UV light and chlorine to disinfect surfaces, countertops, medical facilities, etc. The researcher talked about injecting UV light, Trump got understandability confused about the use of the word “inject”. Trump wasn’t recommending anything. He was trying to understand the recommendation.  

 
By the way, using UV light to sterilize blood is a medical practice. It fell out of favor because at the time of it’s discovery antibiotics showed much more promise. When Covid happened many researchers began to take a 2nd look at this approach and wondered if it couldn’t be made much more effective.
