Matthew 6:1-34
“Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. “Thus, when you give to the needy, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. “And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. .

For all the responsibility vested in the WHO, it has little power. Unlike international bodies such as the World Trade Organization, the WHO, which is a specialised body of the UN, has no ability to bind or sanction its members. Its annual operating budget, about $2bn in 2019, is smaller than that of many university hospitals, and split among a dizzying array of public health and research projects. The WHO is less like a military general or elected leader with a strong mandate, and more like an underpaid sports coach wary of “losing the dressing room”, who can only get their way by charming, grovelling, cajoling and occasionally pleading with the players to do as they say.
The WHO “has been drained of power and resources”, said Richard Horton, editor of the influential medical journal the Lancet. “Its coordinating authority and capacity are weak. Its ability to direct an international response to a life-threatening epidemic is non-existent.”
At the same time, the international order on which the WHO relies is fraying, as aggressive nationalism becomes normalised around the world. “All the previous rules about global norms, public health and understanding of what’s expected in terms of an outbreak has crumbled,” said Lawrence Gostin, director of the WHO Collaborating Center on National and Global Health Law. “None of us know where this is leading.”

Trump Coronavirus Timeline
“We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. It’s going to be just fine.
Donald Trump

"Well, we pretty much shut it down coming in from China. We have a tremendous relationship with China, which is a very positive thing. Getting along with China, getting along with Russia"
Donald Trump

“We pretty much shut it down coming in from China.”
Donald Trump

“A lot of people think that goes away in April with the heat—as the heat comes in.”
Donald Trump

“Coronavirus is not something that is going to have ripple effects.”
White House acting budget director Russell Vought

“The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA. . . . Stock Market starting to look very good to me.”
Donald Trump

“You should seriously consider buying these [stock market] dips”
Trump’s top economic adviser, Larry Kudlow
[Note: The Dow Jones ended February 24 at 27,960. It closed March 11 at 23,553]

"We will not see diseases like the coronavirus come here..and isn't it refreshing when contrasting it with the awful presidency of President Obama."
Kayleigh McEnany

“[The number of people infected is] going very substantially down, not up.” “The 15 [cases] within a couple of days, is going to be down to zero.”
Donald Trump
[Note: Two weeks later, as we compiled this list on March 11, there were over 1,000 confirmed cases in the United States]

“It’s going to disappear one day, it’s like a miracle.”
Donald Trump

“In my opinion, it’s a great time to buy stocks or into your 401k. I would be all in . . . let’s see if I’m right.”
Eric Trump
[Note: The stock market closed at 25,409 on February 28. It closed at 23,553 on March 11]

“I’ve heard very quick numbers, that of months.”
Donald Trump on a coronavirus vaccine
[Note: Immunologist Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has repeatedly said that a vaccine will not be available for a year or year and a half.]

“I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it. . . . Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president.”
Donald Trump

“I didn’t know people died from the flu.”
Donald Trump

“I don't need to have the numbers double because of one ship that wasn't our fault...I'd rather have them stay on, personally.”
Donald Trump

“Anybody who wants a test gets a test.”
Donald Trump
[Note. This was a lie at the time and remains dangerously untrue today. The previous day, Vice President Mike Pence said, “We don’t have enough tests today to meet what we anticipate will be the demand going forward.”]

“We stopped it, it was a very early shut down, I would still argue to you that this thing is contained.”
Larry Kudlow

“Investors should think about buying these dips.”
Larry Kudlow
[Note: The Dow Jones closed at 25,864 on March 6, over 2,300 points lower than the previous time Kudlow suggested investors “buy the dip.”]

“Good for the consumer, gasoline prices coming down!”
Donald Trump

“So last year 37,000 Americans died from the common Flu. It averages between 27,000 and 70,000 per year. Nothing is shut down, life & the economy go on. At this moment there are 546 confirmed cases of CoronaVirus, with 22 deaths.”
Donald Trump

“It will go away. Just stay calm. It will go away.”
Donald Trump

“If we get rid of the coronavirus problem quickly, we won’t need [economic] stimulus.”
Donald Trump

“That’s CNN. Fake news.”
Donald Trump in response to a question from CNN’s Jim Acosta asking what he would “say to Americans who say you are not taking this seriously enough and that some of your statements don’t match what health experts are saying”

“We have ’em very heavily tested. If an American’s coming back, or anybody’s coming back, we’re testing. We have a tremendous testing setup where people coming in have to be tested. And if they are positive, and if they’re able to get through—because, frankly, if they’re not, we’re not putting them on planes, if it shows positive…”
Donald Trump
[Note. This is not true.]

“I don’t take responsibility at all.”
Donald Trump

“I’ve felt it was a pandemic long before it was called a pandemic.”
Donald Trump

To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair
The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress
The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people
And so long as men die, liberty will never perish
Soldiers!
Don't give yourselves to brutes - men who despise you - enslave you - who regiment your lives - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel!
Who drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder
Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men - machine men with machine minds and machine hearts!
You are not machines!
You are not cattle!
You are men!
You have the love of humanity in your hearts!
You don't hate!
Only the unloved hate - the unloved and the unnatural!
Soldiers!
Don't fight for slavery!
Fight for liberty!
In the 17th Chapter of St Luke it is written: "the Kingdom of God is within man" - not one man nor a group of men, but in all men!
In you!
You, the people have the power - the power to create machines
The power to create happiness!
You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure
Then - in the name of democracy - let us use that power - let us all unite
Let us fight for a new world - a decent world that will give men a chance to work - that will give youth a future and old age a security
By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power
But they lie!
They do not fulfil that promise
They never will!
Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people!
Now let us fight to fulfil that promise!
Let us fight to free the world - to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance
Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness

@babakbe1514 90% of immigrants are being sent back to Mexico, private companies have the constitutional right to censor whatever they like, the current gun bills don't ban any guns just require more regulation and take away loopholes, the only property recently taken away was for traitor trump border wall and oil pipelines, no one is forcing you to get a vaccine or wear a mask, you have the right not to go to places that require them.
"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America
What better way to insure domestic tranquility than to regulate guns, what better way to provide for the common defense during a pandemic than get vaccinated and what better way to promote the general welfare during an airborne pandemic than to wear a mask? It is your constitutional duty to secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity.

@sirkols8264 Trump Coronavirus Timeline
“We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. It’s going to be just fine.
Donald Trump

"Well, we pretty much shut it down coming in from China. We have a tremendous relationship with China, which is a very positive thing. Getting along with China, getting along with Russia"
Donald Trump

“We pretty much shut it down coming in from China.”
Donald Trump

“A lot of people think that goes away in April with the heat—as the heat comes in.”
Donald Trump

“Coronavirus is not something that is going to have ripple effects.”
White House acting budget director Russell Vought

“The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA. . . . Stock Market starting to look very good to me.”
Donald Trump

“You should seriously consider buying these [stock market] dips”
Trump’s top economic adviser, Larry Kudlow
[Note: The Dow Jones ended February 24 at 27,960. It closed March 11 at 23,553]

"We will not see diseases like the coronavirus come here..and isn't it refreshing when contrasting it with the awful presidency of President Obama."
Kayleigh McEnany

“[The number of people infected is] going very substantially down, not up.” “The 15 [cases] within a couple of days, is going to be down to zero.”
Donald Trump
[Note: Two weeks later, as we compiled this list on March 11, there were over 1,000 confirmed cases in the United States]

“It’s going to disappear one day, it’s like a miracle.”
Donald Trump

“In my opinion, it’s a great time to buy stocks or into your 401k. I would be all in . . . let’s see if I’m right.”
Eric Trump
[Note: The stock market closed at 25,409 on February 28. It closed at 23,553 on March 11]

“I’ve heard very quick numbers, that of months.”
Donald Trump on a coronavirus vaccine
[Note: Immunologist Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has repeatedly said that a vaccine will not be available for a year or year and a half.]

“I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it. . . . Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president.”
Donald Trump

“I didn’t know people died from the flu.”
Donald Trump

“I don't need to have the numbers double because of one ship that wasn't our fault...I'd rather have them stay on, personally.”
Donald Trump

“Anybody who wants a test gets a test.”
Donald Trump
[Note. This was a lie at the time and remains dangerously untrue today. The previous day, Vice President Mike Pence said, “We don’t have enough tests today to meet what we anticipate will be the demand going forward.”]

“We stopped it, it was a very early shut down, I would still argue to you that this thing is contained.”
Larry Kudlow

“Investors should think about buying these dips.”
Larry Kudlow
[Note: The Dow Jones closed at 25,864 on March 6, over 2,300 points lower than the previous time Kudlow suggested investors “buy the dip.”]

“Good for the consumer, gasoline prices coming down!”
Donald Trump

“So last year 37,000 Americans died from the common Flu. It averages between 27,000 and 70,000 per year. Nothing is shut down, life & the economy go on. At this moment there are 546 confirmed cases of CoronaVirus, with 22 deaths.”
Donald Trump

“It will go away. Just stay calm. It will go away.”
Donald Trump

“If we get rid of the coronavirus problem quickly, we won’t need [economic] stimulus.”
Donald Trump

“That’s CNN. Fake news.”
Donald Trump in response to a question from CNN’s Jim Acosta asking what he would “say to Americans who say you are not taking this seriously enough and that some of your statements don’t match what health experts are saying”

“We have ’em very heavily tested. If an American’s coming back, or anybody’s coming back, we’re testing. We have a tremendous testing setup where people coming in have to be tested. And if they are positive, and if they’re able to get through—because, frankly, if they’re not, we’re not putting them on planes, if it shows positive…”
Donald Trump
[Note. This is not true.]

“I don’t take responsibility at all.”
Donald Trump

“I’ve felt it was a pandemic long before it was called a pandemic.”
Donald Trump

For all the responsibility vested in the WHO, it has little power. Unlike international bodies such as the World Trade Organization, the WHO, which is a specialised body of the UN, has no ability to bind or sanction its members. Its annual operating budget, about $2bn in 2019, is smaller than that of many university hospitals, and split among a dizzying array of public health and research projects. The WHO is less like a military general or elected leader with a strong mandate, and more like an underpaid sports coach wary of “losing the dressing room”, who can only get their way by charming, grovelling, cajoling and occasionally pleading with the players to do as they say.
The WHO “has been drained of power and resources”, said Richard Horton, editor of the influential medical journal the Lancet. “Its coordinating authority and capacity are weak. Its ability to direct an international response to a life-threatening epidemic is non-existent.”
At the same time, the international order on which the WHO relies is fraying, as aggressive nationalism becomes normalised around the world. “All the previous rules about global norms, public health and understanding of what’s expected in terms of an outbreak has crumbled,” said Lawrence Gostin, director of the WHO Collaborating Center on National and Global Health Law. “None of us know where this is leading.”

@pattycampos9995 Matthew 6:1-34
“Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. “Thus, when you give to the needy, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. “And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward

To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair.
The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress.
The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people.
And so long as men die, liberty will never perish. ...
Soldiers!
Don't give yourselves to brutes - men who despise you - enslave you - who regiment your lives - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel!
Who drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder.
Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men - machine men with machine minds and machine hearts!
You are not machines!
You are not cattle!
You are men!
You have the love of humanity in your hearts!
You don't hate!
Only the unloved hate - the unloved and the unnatural!
Soldiers!
Don't fight for slavery!
Fight for liberty!
In the 17th Chapter of St Luke it is written: "the Kingdom of God is within man" - not one man nor a group of men, but in all men!
In you!
You, the people have the power - the power to create machines.
The power to create happiness!
You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.
Then - in the name of democracy - let us use that power - let us all unite.
Let us fight for a new world - a decent world that will give men a chance to work - that will give youth a future and old age a security.
By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power.
But they lie!
They do not fulfil that promise.
They never will!
Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people!
Now let us fight to fulfil that promise!
Let us fight to free the world - to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance.
Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness.
Soldiers!
In the name of democracy, let us all unite
Chaplin
