Naw, my Venezuelan buddy texted me this morning and begged me to put up a Trump flag. My Mexican neighbor already has one. I’m debating it.

Most of the country is moderate. I am in the majority. The majority of people I know don't think the world is crumbling. We just have different views. It's okay. I am actually bowing out now though. Good day.
Come home my friend, you know you want to. We’re here with open arms.

I can hardly make sense of what he’s saying honestly.

Point is if Sark wanted a guy with name recognition who could come in and deliver instant recruiting he'd have gone after someone like O or another known college DL coach.
He went after Baker because he prioritized development, especially in the pass rush. Now whether Baker will deliver and prove Sark right won't be known for a while.
I would’ve leaned more towards a proven guy, but it’s a gamble that may pay off. One thing I like about Sark is that he realizes fairly quickly when he made a shitty (Coleman) hire.

Covid 19 coronavirus: Wuhan virus lab scientist thought to be 'patient zero' still missing
news.com.au
18 Jan, 2021 10:46 AMThe fate of a Chinese researcher believed to be the world's first Covid-19 patient remains a mystery despite a year-long search by Western intelligence officials investigating the origins of the pandemic.
Huang Yanling, who worked at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, was one of scores of doctors, scientists, activists and journalists who disappeared during the Chinese Communist Party's suspected cover-up.
During the early weeks of the outbreak last February, rumours swirled on Chinese social media that the graduate student was "patient zero", creating a direct link between the controversial lab and the virus outbreak.
Chinese officials quickly stepped in to censor the reports from the internet.
The Wuhan Institute of Virology denied she was patient zero and insisted, without evidence, that she was alive and well elsewhere in the country – while scrubbing her biography and image from its website.
A post purporting to be from Huang later appeared on social media platform WeChat.
"To my teachers and fellow students, how long no speak," the message said. "I am Huang Yanling, still alive. If you receive any email (regarding the Covid-19 rumour), please say it's not true."
Her former boss made a separate post on social media claiming that she had left the institute in 2015, while a Chinese news agency claimed that it had spoken with her new employer but provided no other details.

According to the UK's Mail on Sunday, which has also attempted unsuccessfully to track her down, little else is known about her other than that her name is included among the authors of three scientific papers issued by the institute between 2013 and 2015.
The Mail on Sunday says Western governments and intelligence agencies have tried and failed to track down Huang, sparking fears she is either dead or being detained by Chinese authorities.
Huang's disappearance had earlier been cited in a 15-page dossier prepared by Western governments – published by The Sunday Telegraph in May last year – laying out evidence the virus had escaped from the lab.
The Mail on Sunday says its own extensive inquiries within China, including messages to her former colleagues, have also turned up empty.
Despite China's internet censors stamping out discussion of Huang, many social media users continue to speculate about her fate, with some claiming she may have been hastily cremated.
"Everyone on the Chinese internet is searching for Huang," one blogger wrote, according to the Mail on Sunday. "Most believe she is dead."

Photo / news.co.auSecretary of State Mike Pompeo told the Mail on Sunday in a statement that the Chinese Communist Party had prevented investigators from interviewing researchers from the Wuhan Institute of Virology "including those who were ill in the fall (autumn) of 2019".
"Beijing continues today to withhold vital information that scientists need to protect the world from this deadly virus and the next one," Pompeo said.
It comes as US officials step up their attacks on China over the pandemic, claiming they have explosive new evidence that proves Covid-19 leaked from the lab.
Pompeo earlier demanded the World Health Organisation launch an investigation into the possibility the virus was result of an "accidental" lab leak.
He said US intelligence agencies had found scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology fell ill in the autumn of 2019 with symptoms consistent with Covid-19, earlier than previously believed.
"This raises questions about the credibility of WIV senior researcher Shi Zhengli's public claim that there was 'zero infection' among WIV's staff and students of SARS-CoV-2 or SARS-related viruses," Pompeo said.
The first cluster of cases was discovered in December 2019 in Wuhan, with early reports linking the outbreak to a controversial "wet market" that sold and butchered exotic animals in disgusting conditions.
The "patient zero" of the Huanan market had previously been named as a 57-year-old seafood merchant, a woman named Wei Guixian, who first started to feel sick on December 10.
On Thursday, the WHO's team of experts arrived in Wuhan to begin their investigation into the origins of the virus, which has now killed more than two million people globally.
"We need to be very careful about the use of the phrase 'patient zero' which many people indicate as the first initial case," Maria Van Kerkhove, the WHO's Covid-19 technical lead, told a press conference.
"We may never find who the patient zero was."
Western governments believe that the body has largely ceded control of the investigation to China, leading to fears of a whitewash.
"Unfortunately, this has become a political investigation," Singapore-based Australian virologist Wang Linfa told The New York Times in November. "Whatever they do is symbolic."
Yeah, it’s worse than I originally thought. God China sucks.

Aren't you supposed to be some sort of business big wig? You'd know shit isn't built in a matter of weeks. It takes time.

I don't "blame" China. Every indication is that Covid-19 originated there, and that is what it is. But "blame" is not the word I'd use.
I blame them for the secrecy on the matter. We’d know a lot more if they’d own it instead of being pussies about it.

Is blaming China for this particular pandemic racist? It’s clear it originated there, whether naturally or from a lab. Seems reasonable imo.

I haven’t negged anyone really outside of GRU and his new handles, but Chrispy is the other one I will hand them out to. He tries to spread propaganda and lies here and gives the same tired awe shucks routine. He knows exactly what he did and should be negged right off this board permanently.
I never post links. What propaganda have they posted? Where’s the guy that does Ip checks? It’s bizarre because Donkey/Beard and I don’t even post similarly.

What, in very specific terms are you seeking with your vote and hope that all Republicans on every ballot win.
Politics is local for the most part, which is why I live in the reddest county in Texas and It’s wonderful here. It’s socially conservative, very religious, very pro 2nd amendment, and has very strict laws/sentencing. The cowgirls are a bonus.
No party at the moment is fiscally conservative unfortunately, so I vote mostly on social issues and the border. I’m sure I left something out. But I do appreciate the question and I tried to avoid what I vote against. Which is a lot as well.

Iraq 2003 woke me up to what the GOP had become. It was always there under the surface, going back to Reagan, and Limbaugh and O’Reilly kicked it into high gear obviously (and I bought into the myths about the Clintons and Carter), but I still thought George W Bush was a decent guy and was happy to campaign for him. In hindsight, I was very uneasy about other campaign workers thinking it was great that somebody (Rove) was using McCain’s adopted daughter against him, but blew it off to an ugly primary.
I should have known better given how many warning signs there were, but for somebody growing up in the 70s and 80s with Republican parents, the lure of the siren’s song about the GOP being the “good” guys fighting the good fight against the Russians was too strong.
Fast-forward and the Republicans are openly in bed with the Russians.
Fair enough. I like you, so I’ll make sure you’re spared when we take over.

I was Chrispy in a different life. This is the only other handle I’ve used. I’m a radical republican and gearing up for the election. I’m getting excited, been a long four years. I was hoping we could all be civil.

Not even close. I’m a little offended here if I’m being honest.

When Trump loses, it’ll be interesting to see how long it takes before more Republicans turn on him. They hate losing more than they had libtards.
