Trump supporters and conspiracy theory - Part 2

[Rick Plant]

So many fake words.  Biden has done absolutely nothing with the pandemic except set fake goals that he has now failed to achieve. The pandemic came under control due to the development and distribution of the vaccine which began under Trump.  It took a few months to rollout and start taking effect.  What has Biden actually contributed:  inflation, crime, shortages, no one working because he paid them to stay home just as the economy was opening up, illegals flooding the country, Russian hacks going unpunished (does Putin have something on Whispering Joe to blackmail him - LOL).  And on and on.  Where is Kamala?

And even more

Just like Richard told a falsehood that President Kennedy had nothing to do with Civil Rights, he tells another one that President Biden had nothing to do with fixing the pandemic. Even nearly half of Republicans credit Biden for saving America with the pandemic.

The coronavirus was raging out of control until President Biden came into office and got a handle on it. That is an absolute fact.

America was under 1 million shots per day until President Biden came into office and sped it up to over 3 million per day.

We didn't even have enough vaccines to cover Americans until President Biden came into office and secured millions of doses of vaccines.

The rollout under Criminal Donald was an absolute disaster and the idiot passed up securing millions of doses.

Also, Criminal Donald had nothing to do with the vaccine, Germany funded the Pfizer vaccine.

And the rest of this nonsense is the same old right wing debunked propaganda.

Another anti vaxx moron dies from COVID-19 by being brainwashed with bogus right wing disinformation. And this woman was a nurse who should have known better that medicines and vaccines cure illnesses and prevents you from getting deathly ill from a virus. She would still be alive today if she got vaccinated. The only reason she was against vaccines is because she heard it from the right wing media that broadcasts daily lies against the vaccine. And yet these same idiots who promote vaccine disinformation want to give Criminal Donald fake credit for the vaccine. These people are deranged. 

These right wing GOP politicians and right wing media hacks who spread purposeful disinformation about vaccines all should be held accountable for murder because they are killing off their own supporters by purposely lying to them which prevents them from getting vaccinated and it also allows the virus to keep spreading infecting others which ends up mutating into a more deadly variant. The GOP "Pro Death" Party has no regard for human life.     


Anti-vaxx nurse dies from COVID-19 in Louisiana




A Louisiana nurse who questioned the safety of vaccines has died of complications from COVID-19.

Olivia Guidry, a registered nurse in the emergency department at Ochsner Lafayette General, died SaPersonay after being hospitalized for the coronavirus in the intensive care unit, reported The Advocate.

"Today is a sad day for my ER family and I," her colleague Nick Berthelot posted on Facebook. "Your contagious laugh and smile will truly be missed Liv. Until we meet again sweet girl."

Coronavirus deaths have decreased dramatically in Louisiana since last year, but the state has seen a recent increase that experts blame on its low vaccination rate of 36 percent, compared with about 50 percent nationally, and Guidry questioned their safety on her own social media account.

"This vaccine has been released using recombinant DNA technology faster than any vaccine in the world," Guidry posted on July 26, 2020. "It manipulates your DNA at the tiniest molecular level. Do. Not. Get. It. It's not safe."

She also questioned pandemic safety measures and retweeted another account calling coronavirus tests fake.

"Am I the only one thinking they are trying to see how much they can control us???" she posted July 11, 2020. "We are a straight up social experiment."

The vaccines are made with messenger RNA, which is found in all living cells, and does not combine with DNA to change recipients' genetic code, and the shots are considered safe and effective protection against the deadly virus.

Both of Guidry's parents are currently ill with the coronavirus, and she is also survived by a pregnant sister.

The Family Secrets Fueling the Trump Organization Indictment

Prosecutors have been seeking evidence of tax evasion at the Trump Organization for years. In the end, it was the ex-wife of a Trump employee who had what they were looking for




While the Manhattan District Attorney’s office undertook a years-long, high-stakes battle to obtain Donald Trump’s tax records—twice returning to the Supreme Court—some of the most damning evidence was quietly in the possession of someone who was more than willing to turn it over: the ex-daughter-in-law of a top Trump Organization executive.

Allen Weisselberg, the Trump Organization’s longtime chief financial officer, has always been key to unlocking the finances of the Trump family business. For years, prosecutors have been looking for documents that would show what exiled insiders like Trump’s ex-consigliere Michael Cohen have claimed: that the Trump Organization was fudging numbers and dodging taxes.

What investigators didn’t know was that the proof was in the hands of Jennifer Weisselberg, the woman once married to Barry Weisselberg, the son of Allen Weisselberg. And it wasn’t until November 2020 that city and state investigators connected with her to acquire the evidence.

The Daily Beast has obtained some of the records that, according to Ms. Weisselberg and her lawyer, have proved pivotal to last week’s indictment of the Trump Organization CFO.

The top finance executive at the Trump Organization was indicted for dodging taxes by receiving pay in unaccounted corporate perks. Among them: redirecting his salary to cover tuition payments for his grandkids.

As prosecutors would discover, Barry Weisselberg explained it all in sworn testimony he made during a deposition in his divorce case in August 2018.

Grandpa Weisselberg paid more than $50,000 a year for each of the two kids to attend a top-rated private academy, the Columbia Grammar and Preparatory School. He’d been doing it for at least six years, Barry Weisselberg told his wife’s lawyer, Clifford Petroske.

New York investigators would later ask Jennifer Weisselberg about that financial arrangement, according to two people in the room. They said prosecutors’ eyes widened when she explained that Trump himself would sign a check that she would hand deliver to the school.

That detail made its way into page seven of last week’s indictment: “as part of the scheme to defraud, Trump Corporation personnel, including Weisselberg, arranged for tuition expenses for Weisselberg’s family members to be paid by personal checks drawn on the account of and signed by Donald J. Trump.”

In the indictment, the office of Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. noted that tuition payments “constituted employee compensation and taxable income to Allen Weisselberg,” but it claims he hadn’t reported that additional $359,058 in his taxes over the years.

The indictment also mentions “a family member” of the CFO who took part in “the scheme to defraud” the government by getting a company apartment—again, without reporting it on personal income taxes.

This, too, stemmed from the Barry-Jennifer divorce case. Investigators found that the CFO’s son, a fellow Trump Organization employee in charge of its Wollman ice skating rink at Central Park, was keeping his official salary artificially low. In his divorce case, Barry Weisselberg testified that he didn’t even get a monetary raise in years, and according to investigators, he received the extra compensation in the form of fringe benefits.

The documents lay it out. Barry and Jennifer Weisselberg’s joint 2010 tax return lists his combined “wages, salaries, and tips” at $132,811. In New York, that’s enough for a couple to live in a comfortable one-bedroom apartment in Queens with a view of the city.

But in actuality, the Weisselbergs were staying at the ritzy 100 Central Park South, premium real estate at a coveted spot in the heart of Manhattan. The cost of living at the Trump-owned building is several times higher than what Weisselberg could afford on that salary, where monthly rent nowadays ranges from $5,300 to $20,000.

The answer? Donald Trump picked up the tab for more than six years.

“It was a corporate apartment, so we didn’t have rent,” Barry Weisselberg said in his deposition.

His wife’s lawyer kept pressing with questions to reveal the value of this luxurious corporate perk.

“What would the rent have been if that apartment would have been rented to a third party?” Petroske asked.

“I have no idea,” Barry Weisselberg replied.

When asked whether he’d reported the apartment perk on his taxes from 2005 to 2011, he said he didn’t “recall.”

This is the same arrangement that the longtime Trump ice rink manager had for his next place: a one-bedroom apartment in Manhattan’s expensive Upper East Side, on the same block as the Trump Plaza building.

In his divorce deposition, Barry Weisselberg described this other spot as “a corporate apartment” and said he simply didn’t know who was paying the rent, if it were being paid at all.

In the indictment, prosecutors said that second apartment also “constituted income” that should have been taxes, but that the Trump Organization “intentionally failed to do so.”

Barry Weisselberg was not charged in last week’s indictment, but the investigation is ongoing and the government could still target him. It’s a looming threat that could be understood as a strategy: applying additional pressure on the CFO, so that he cooperates with law enforcement to spare his son from the probe.

The Manhattan District Attorney and New York Attorney General, which have struck a rare partnership to prosecute this together, have hinted that there’s more to come. Questions asked of witnesses, who spoke to The Daily Beast on condition of anonymity, show that investigators are interested in other executives as well.

And as the current case centers on questions about untaxed “fringe benefits,” the DA and AG will have to prove who tweaked salaries—and whether they knew about tax rules.

Once again, Jennifer Weisselberg’s divorce case shows the path.

Barry Weisselberg’s testified that his pay—which remained flat for “numerous years” while the corporate perks added up—was decided by his own father, Allen Weisselberg, and Trump’s Chief Operating Officer, Matthew Calamari.

Trump’s bodyguard-turned-COO was not named in the indictment, nor has he been charged with a crime. But investigators are probing Calamari’s activity, according to two people familiar with the investigation.

Prosecutors also have reason to examine Trump’s involvement more closely as well. In his divorce testimony, Barry Weisselberg made clear that his pay was once determined by the head honcho himself.

“Personally Donald Trump would make that decision?” his wife’s lawyer asked.

“Yes,” Barry Weisselberg responded.

Trump only stopped personally overseeing the skating rink manager’s pay when Trump became president of the United States, Barry Weisselberg claimed. If true, that would rope in Trump, who called himself “king of the tax code” for years and is now trying to walk that back and play dumb.

In the several boxes of evidence that investigators received from Jennifer Weisselberg, they came across one name they knew well: Donald Bender.

For years, the DA’s office had been seeking Trump’s tax returns held at his trusted outside accounting firm, Mazars USA. The Trump Organization had them prepared by Bender, a partner at Mazars USA’s Long Island office, and always in close consultation with Allen Weisselberg, according to a source familiar with the arrangement.

Jennifer Weisselberg’s records show that Bender also prepared the couple’s taxes back in 2009 and 2010, when he was at a previous iteration of the firm.

Jennifer Weisselberg’s lawyer, Duncan Levin, credited his client with gifting investigators a mountain of evidence.

“Jen has shown a great deal of bravery in coming forward with the information that she has,” he said. “She has been 100 percent cooperative with prosecutors for many months. She’s met with prosecutors more than a half dozen times, and has really done a thorough job of culling through a huge volume of materials to give to prosecutors. I’m very confident she is a pivotal witness to the district attorney’s office and in large measure responsible for where things stand today.”

Jennifer Weisselberg told The Daily Beast that her guiding principle was the example that her actions would set for her kids.

“Justice matters to me,” she said. “I always wanted to teach my kids right from wrong. Accountability. And that if you don’t cheat and lie, you can still succeed with dignity.”

All of these right wingers who are spreading COVID-19 and vaccine disinformation need to be held accountable for the damage they are doing to America and their own supporters they are killing off with their lies. The GOP "Pro Death" cult has no regard for human life and it appears they are trying to kill as many people as possible. Why else would they continue to lie about the vaccine every day telling people not to get vaccinated to protect their own lives?

So it appears Criminal Donald wanted to execute people like they do in North Korea. Thank God this deranged psychopath is out of office. Bunker Boy Trump is a top trend currently on Twitter. He was melting down like a child on election night which is why he tried to stage a coup to illegally remain in office. 


Furious Trump demanded leaker who revealed he fled to his bunker during protests be executed: report

According to Wall Street Journal reporter Michael Bender's bombshell book, "Frankly, We Did Win This Election: The Inside Story of How Trump Lost, a furious Donald Trump demanded that officials in his government find out who leaked the story that he fled to his bunker during the George Floyd protests in D.C. and wanted them tried for treason and then executed.

As the report notes, Trump, his wife Melania and son Barron were escorted to the bunker -- news of which quickly made it to the press, which caused the president to blow up.

Bender reports the former president, "held a tense meeting with top military, law enforcement and West Wing advisers, in which he aired grievances over the leak."

According to his book, "Trump boiled over about the bunker story as soon as they arrived and shouted at them to smoke out whoever had leaked it. It was the most upset some aides had ever seen the president," with Bender reporting Trump yelled, "Whoever did that, they should be charged with treason! They should be executed!"

Bender adds that former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows interceded and "repeatedly tried to calm the president as startled aides avoided eye contact," while assuring Trump, "I'm on it. We're going to find out who did it."

The report adds that Trump obsessed over it for days afterwards and "those who said they'd heard the president issue that warning had interpreted the outburst as a sign of a president in panic."

'He’s in a meltdown': White House adviser begged Karl Rove to calm down Trump on election night




According to excerpts from "I Alone Can Fix It: Donald J. Trump's Catastrophic Final Year" by the Washington Post's Carol Leonnig and Philip Rucker, former president Donald Trump grew so furious on election night 2020 over the state by state returns that showed he was going to lose that a close aide to the former president was forced to call former Bush administration White House chief of staff Karl Rove for help.

As the clock ticked past midnight in Washington, D.C., on election night, Trump grew angrier and angrier as key states he needed to remain in office slipped away. Already upset that his lead in Pennsylvania was rapidly shrinking, the president reportedly lost it when Fox News called Arizona for Joe Biden.

According to an excerpt from the book, Fox News personality Laura Ingraham was on hand in Trump's election night war room, and she counseled him to give up on Arizona, informing him that it was unlikely the courts would help him overturn the election results -- to which Trump responded, "Fox shouldn't have called it."

The reports adds that an aide to Trump then put in a call to Rove -- a Fox News contributor -- asking for help.

"He's in a meltdown," the adviser reportedly told Rove. "Can you call him and tell him that all is not lost?"

According to the book, "Rove phoned the president and tried to give him a pep talk. 'Hang in there,' he told Trump. 'There's a lot of ballots to be counted and it's not going to be done for some time. You fought a good fight … You're not out yet.'"

Referring to the 2000 election when former president George W. Bush was able to claim victory after the networks awarded Florida to ex-Vice President Al Gore, Rove reportedly placated Trump by telling him, "I know premature calls. Hang in there. You gave it your all. You came down to the end. You upset them in 2016. You can do it again. Just hold on."

'That's what crazy dictators do': Trump slammed for allegedly demanding execution of leaker who made him look bad
https://www.rawstory.com/trump-crazy-dictator/

[Rick Plant]

Well, what I've been saying all along finally has been confirmed. Criminal Donald purposely allowed COVID-19 to ravage America because he thought it would delay and prevent the election from happening in 2020. It was clearly obvious from the start what he was doing. Nobody can be that incompetent to ignore several warnings from U.S. Intelligence who warned him that we will be facing a disastrous pandemic and then do nothing about it. It was all done on purpose to allow COVID-19 to get out of control and then lie about the virus every single step of the way making it a political issue instead of the health crisis that it is

After mask mandates and stay at home orders were working to slow down the virus, Criminal Donald started his attack campaign demanding to open up all the states even before it was safe to reopen. He wanted the virus to kill people and ravage our communities because he thought it would stop the election from happening so he couldn't lose. That's how much of a sick deranged psychopath Donald Trump is. He always knew he was going to lose which is why he tried to illegally extort Ukraine into smearing President Joe Biden. He got impeached for that.

Every single poll showed him losing to Joe Biden and so did his own internal polling which is why he thought a pandemic would cancel the election. This is clear dereliction of duty and a violation of his oath of office. Criminal Donald needs to be brought up on charges with crimes against the United States of America for treason and be held accountable for all the 623,284+ deaths he allowed to happen on purpose. Let's not forget he didn't do this all by himself. He had help from his henchmen in his corrupt administration, the GOP, and the lying right wing media who spread lies about COVID-19 parroting Trump's lies. This should outrage every single American and especially people who lost loved ones to COVID-19 or had to go through being sick from the virus themselves, and ended up losing their jobs. This is the worst crime against America in the history of the United States.             


Trump believed the pandemic would let him indefinitely delay the 2020 election until whenever he wanted: Michael Wolff





When former President Donald Trump was getting closer to the election, he was telling the country that the virus wasn't that bad anymore. Vaccines were on the way, he said. Besides, he'd told Americans many times that the deadly virus wasn't that serious. Still, Trump thought that he could push back the 2020 election indefinitely.

Michael Wolff's new book  Landslide: The Final Days of the Trump White House, details the horrifying plot that Trump had was to stop the election because there was "too much virus" and "people can't get to the polls." The ironic idea came while Trump was raging against mailed ballots and vote-by-mail in general.

"With Universal Mail-In Voting (not Absentee Voting, which is good), 2020 will be the most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history. It will be a great embarrassment to the USA. Delay the Election until people can properly, securely and safely vote???" Trump tweeted at the end of July, 2020.

So, it appeared that Trump wanted to discount mail voting and then use the inability to vote as an excuse to remain the president for as long as he chose.

Then-chief of staff Mark Meadows informed the president that they couldn't postpone the election due to mandated election dates outlined in the Constitution.

I remember when right wingers were lying about COVID-19 telling us that children and young adults were "immune" from COVID-19 and it only affected old people. Yes, that was all part of the deadly and dangerous right wing COVID-19 disinformation campaign. The fact is every human is vulnerable to getting deathly ill from COVID-19. These right wingers want kids in school during a deadly pandemic and don't want them to be vaccinated so they end up being on life support. Just another example of the "Pro Death Party" known as the GOP.
