After having gotten an antibody cocktail, he was brought to hospital now.

He is male. Age 74 (right?) . Has high cholesterine. Is obese (BMI 30). And is rumoured to have had a stroke. Thats what they call a high risk patient.

I had to look that up, because the lastest news I read, was how tired he was while he and his wife was resting in some area of the white house.

Taking to the hospital...must mean it has gotten worst or to be prepared.

Given that a right-wing counter-protester killed two protesters in Kenosha, I can’t say I believe that the far-right is any less dangerous than the far-left.

In fact, seeing as these far-left protests were started by people dying, and the Unite the Right protest in Charlottesville (which killed someone) were started by the removal of a statue of a guy who asked that no-one ever make a statue of him, I’d say they’re more volatile.

I would be curious to know what exactly what you know (facts) about that incident and can you tell us those facts. You should be aware that video evidence of the incident is available online.

I would like to respectfully contest that characterization. Just because you do not go along with the SJW/Antifa/BLM and you try to protect property from rioters and vandals does not make you a far-right. And he was not a counter-protester, from all accounts I have heard.

If rioting broke out in my home town and a friend asked me to help him guard his business, would I be a far-right counter-protester?

Maybe it depends on where you get your news?

Well, obviously not. If that was the case, I’d be far-right. But walking around and showing off a firearm (that was illegally owned) to a bunch of people who are scared of being shot isn’t exactly a de-escalation tactic.

I honestly have to ask - what’s going on with America? A cop obviously breaks the law, and that somehow led to more people being killed, businesses being destroyed, the President awkwardly standing outside a church holding up a bible, one of my country’s citizens being assaulted by police for being a journalist, and still no real police reform. Not to mention that the far-left and far-right are growing in size and filling up online echo chambers like that Stormfront website.

Everybody in the US needs a big time out. Go to your rooms, turn off the news, lock the doors, build or paint something and come out in a month. Momma says....

Too much misinformation and rumors that abound now and also in the past, which gives birth to Jackals who purposefully studies people who are weak and allow themselves to be influenced by great negativity, which is clear now, even before.

Additional 9 more who work or have visit the White House has been tested positive.

This information created another question.

If the worst thing should happen-the entire Government in The White house becomes incapacitated, due to corona infection.

Who will then take charge ?
Is it
House of representatives ?
