I too always take a pop at people when I have no response to the facts they've posted.
A cancer charity started by Joe Biden gave out no money to research, and spent most of its contributions on staff salaries, federal filings show.
The Biden Cancer Initiative was founded in 2017 by the former vice president and his wife Jill Biden to “develop and drive implementation of solutions to accelerate progress in cancer prevention, detection, diagnosis, research and care and to reduce disparities in cancer outcomes,” according to its IRS mission statement. But it gave out no grants in its first two years, and spent millions on the salaries of former Washington DC aides it hired.
The charity took in $4,809,619 in contributions in fiscal years 2017 and 2018, and spent $3,070,301 on payroll in those two years. The group’s president, Gregory Simon, raked in $429,850 in fiscal 2018 (July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019), according to the charity’s most recent federal tax filings.
Simon, a former Pfizer executive and longtime health care lobbyist who headed up the White House’s cancer task force in the Obama administration, saw his salary nearly double from the $224,539 he made in fiscal 2017, tax filings show.
Danielle Carnival, former chief of staff for Obama’s cancer initiative, the Cancer Moonshot Task Force, who took home $258,207 in 2018.
The charity spent $56,738 on conferences and $59,356 on travel that year. The following year, the travel expenditure swelled to $97,149, and the non-profit spent $742,953 on conferences, tax filings show.

I thought pee was more his thing?
Meanwhile, the Whitehouses pandemic advisor, who their own coronavirus coordinator will not sit with, and has no expertise in epidemiology, has advocated that the people of michigan rise up against coronavirus restrictions. Michigan's cases, deaths and hospitalizations are up over 100 percent since two weeks ago, and the spread is uncontrolled, like in virtually every state in the us.
Michiganders did of course attempt to rise up, some months ago, in a plot to kidnap the governor.
All of this isn't some speculation. It's just more of the disaster unfolding before america, thanks to historically awful leadership. Again and again the federal government has, for political gain, undermined a solid clear public health message, creating a politicized environment that has muddied a message and reduced compliance.

Which US states was the Smartmatic voting system used in?
I thought all the Biden frauds were on the Dominion system?
A sceptical mind might also think that's Trump's massive financial losses in his entertainment holdings (golf courses, hotels etc. such as Doral, paid $150m for it but it's lost $163m over the past couple of years and his Scottish golf courses over $60m) might influence his lock-down decision-making.
Baseless claims re. Election Fraud .. so says Fox News segment 😀

Trump's legal campaign continues to fall apart. New legal team fails to include Dantes.
President Donald Trump's campaign on Sunday (US time) withdrew a central part of its lawsuit seeking to stop the certification of the election results in Pennsylvania, where Democrat Joe Biden beat Trump to capture the state and help win the White House.
Ahead of a Tuesday hearing in the case, Trump's campaign dropped the allegation that hundreds of thousands of mail-in and absentee ballots - 682,479, to be precise - were illegally processed without its representatives watching.
The campaign's slimmed-down lawsuit, filed in federal court on Sunday, maintains the aim of blocking Pennsylvania from certifying a victory for Biden in the state, and it maintains its claim that Democratic voters were treated more favourably than Republican voters.

I'm a bit torn about the idea of the case stopping due to Trump running out of money. On the one hand I don't like the idea that the rich can just buy their way out of any 'issue' with a small army of lawyers. On the other hand it would be a shame if there were fraud and the only way to have it take up by the courts were to spend a barrel of money.
Still yet to see this smoking gun so not overly torn yet.

This would be the charity that is organised so as to not take direct contributions, but instead route funds directly to point of need? And set up because of the death of the Bidens’ son a few years ago?
Nice.
I don't think anyone ever made that claim, because there are issues with each company.
Read this early this morning. The restructured lawsuit doesnt have any impact at all given its for a very low number of votes, so there is no point in it anyway.
Quite the shift in stance from 700 000 to a couple of hundred that wont have any bearing on the final result.
As with everything else regarding Trump, its all founded on bullshit and posturing.
A public health message would have been my go to strategy for dealing with all types of contagion, "hey people, don't get sick, there, I've told you now, if you still go and get sick that's totally on you". Job done.
Maybe he's really good at the role Biden wants him to do?
Maybe he is.
How long ago do you think he'd have been lined up for the job ?
Or does Biden make decisions like this overnight ?
They would presumably have a relationship dating back to the Obama administration at least

Fancy another go at thinking for yourself? Here are the actual court filings for that case
https://electioncases.osu.edu/case/donald-j-trump-for-president-inc-v-boockvar/
The complaint was submitted a week or so ago. There have been motions to dismiss by the democrats. The thing that went in yesterday was an amended complaint. That rendered the motion to dismiss moot (because the complaint was changed to something else, not literally, legally). On the same day the democrats filed a further notice saying they still want the complaint dismissed. The paperwork for that setting out the reasons will be filed today, and the hearing is tomorrow. Here is the amended complaint in case you can't follow the links.

If you scroll down to page 62, they still want to block the certification of all the votes. If you scroll back up to page 40-41, they are still contesting the 600,000 thousand votes. If you rapidly scroll down from there, and read the bolded bits setting out what they take issue with, the one headed D is about the "uneven treatment of poll watchers". I can't be arsed finding the same part of the original complain, perhaps you can. But I would guess the amendment is from "not being allowed to watch" to "uneven treatment". A tremendous difference. Huge. Massive. Like a holy fuck backing down in the complaint. The newspaper article you got your information from truly doesn't do justice to this level of defeat.
There is a strong possibility Biden has absolutely no memory of him from that far back.
If we're going on about conspiracy theories, then he has done very well at being US President. The former Malaysian PM received a $1bn in his account from the Saudis, how much do you reckon Trump got for backing the Saudis, after his initial statement about "Islam hates us"? The deal with the ME countries to buy arms was in the hundreds of billions.
That stupidity would actually be more than what he did.
He said, hey, the cdc says you should wear a mask, but I don't see myself doing it, I'd look like a jerk.
The 'P' in "the P-tapes" doesn't stand for piss...
I recall when supplies were short they made up excuses for why it wasn't a good idea for the public to wear them. Then capitalism meant people had masks to sell, low and behold the cdc then says you should wear one. If the cdc was honest about it, and said key workers are more important than you right now, so don't wear one, then the subsequent messaging would have been more believable.
Yeah, that paternalistic approach shouldn't have occured and was a mistake. The cdc failed on early testing too, clearly.
I'm not sure how that speaks to what trump did from April to now. It wasn't just masks either. He undermined lockdowns, distancing, masks, testing. You know, everything.
Trump has.
