So why haven't we heard much from Russia and how the virus is affecting them? Answer........ They don't complain, life is hard. Use to be "America the Brave"........ Replace "Brave" with "SOFT or "SCARED"

Putin don't play.

no, both sides of the media is not the same ..... There is a reason Foxnews is #1 and is trusted more than any other ..

Why I even read past this part.. They are #1 because they are the only mainstream outlet that makes right leaning folks feel noble and justified in their views. Left leaning media has to fight for their share of the pie of lefties who want confirmation that they are the good and noble ones.

Maybe the same reason North Korea is handling it "so well". They have plenty of excavation equipment...

Or, the Russians just got their vodka above the 60% alcohol by volume and are going "all in" on prophylaxis???

Don't more people watch Fox than the other Left channels combined?

Only on cable news i believe. On broadcast it's a total landslide to the Big 3 networks. Someone correct me if needed.

Here is an example why people read/watch Fox. 2 main stream news media, 1 of Fox. Zero mention in either of the other 2 about the add ons by Pelosi, only that she thinks they are giving 500 billion to big slush fund, that’s why it’s held up.

No mention of $10k college loan forgiveness for everyone, no mention of mandatory 50% carbon reduction for airlines, no mention of writing off postal debt, no mention of mandatory 50 state same day voter registration, no mention of “minority banks” reports to Congress.

This is why Fox even has a platform, people feel they are shepherded by the CNN’s of cable. I’ve watched all the news, zero mention of any of this anywhere but right leaning sites. This is why you HAVE to read each sides take on issues, or you are ill informed.

They can use the stimulus package money to contract with American companies to produce health care products. They can do it under an Act that was used during WW2. These companies are at a stand still and dying anyway. Nobody is buying a new car right now. This would help get the economy going. All of us out of work, can go work for these companies. Right now the biggest supply and demand shortage globally is health care products. This shortage will continue for at least a year. We have the opportunity to jump on this, save lives, and become less dependent on China for the future. Instead we are at a stand still talking about giving money to each household to buy more toilet paper.

I'm aware of all that. What I was referring to is all the love of global economies by some people, at the price of American manufacturing. If domestic manufacturing supplies can't compete in normal times, essentially placing dependence of necessity's on global supplies outside your border, it is kinda hard to bitch about any president not doing a good job of making sure we have those supplies in times of crisis.

Presidents don't posses the check book to buy those supplies for the American people during times of peace either. That is a House responsibility.

I was taught that if you use the last one, you better make sure you stock it up for the next guy. That is just common sense.

We can all do without the hyper partisan bull shit rants ^^^

Very true.
But DID you follow that link? Could you kindly explain why the mainstream left-leaning news didn't mention any of that? Could you please correct me if any of the following are false.

#1. There is an election coming up (undeniable) and the Dems and Reps both obviously want the credit for a huge economy-saving and medical boosting bill before elections. It would have favored the Reps if Mitch McConnell's bill went through, both because of the speed and size of it.

Pelosi would rather *not* have a large Republican bill pass at this critical time.

#2. Nobody can be certain of the future. The Dems realize that if Trump is reelected, they have another 4 years of trying to bite the hand that feeds them and also 4 years before the can do as they wish. If they loose seats in the House and/or Senate, it will limit the amount of power they have. McConnell proposed an intelligent, economy-saving, medical boosting, job saving, bill. It was rapidly formed, but it could be passed and details could be worked out to some degree later.

Pelosi thinks, if I can stick all my green, eco-friendly, wind and solar tax credits, emissions reduction laws, and cheapen education, on this bill I could get it to go through. My fellow Democrats will vote for it because I tell them to, and because they will like it, and the Republicans will vote for it because the original coronavirus part makes common sense. So, let's block it, and then take advantage of the time we wasted by making it critical to pass the coronavirus part immediately and all my baggage will go with it.

The Democ RATs are gonna shoot themselves in the foot with this one. 60% approval of how Trump is handling this and then they try and throw this shit in the bill? I sure hope people do not die because Pelosi wants to add a bunch of BS to the bill.

They didnt mention it the same way the right leaning news omited the abstance programs, exemption/waivers to limits on executives compensation packages with public funding, a six month non no public disclosure order for companies receiving bail outs. Shorter term for unemployment insurance, week limits on stock buy backs ect ect ...thats off the top of my head.

In nut shell, neither side fairly and accurately represents the other side because BOTH sides are partisan hacks with their own adgends and beholden to their own goups of corporate lobbyist.


Just because they act like hacks doesnt mean we need to fall in line and do the same thing.
