In the accompanying photo, only 3 of the individuals are wearing a mask. If your concern is the pandemic, that seems like a very poor representation.

Chris may have been slightly mistaken. It won’t be a blind fury with which the US lashes out - it’ll be a coldly calculated fury…

American economic sanctions against Iran are an act of war. Same as a naval blockade.
We kill about 55,000 Persian childrens and elders each year because they cannot purchase medicines nor spare parts for their hospital equipment. Immediately lifting the sanctions will anger Nutten-hi-ya and Saudi Arabia. On the other hand, it sticks it to Pompeo, Bolton and rump’s arrogant decision to cancel the nuclear treaty.
This covid is SARS2 and man made, delivered to Iran and China. It is a fast Kissinger war.
If eastern Ukraine becomes a hotter European war threat, will NATO prepare are just stnd aside? Notice Putin has advantage with so many leadrship changes in Europe and USA. Where are our 2021 General Marshall and Admiral King when we need that high level of leadership?

The White House appeared to be in a firefighting mode – calming the nerves of the American people – after the vaccines from Johnson & Johnson(source:kalkinemedia.com) were put on a pause.J&J’s vaccines make up only 5% of the American daily vaccine usage, according to Biden Administration official.He claimed that administration has made available 25 million jabs of Moderna and Pfizer a week in the last few months. “In fact, this week we will make available 28 million doses of these vaccines,” Zients added.
Hooray, the USA is wallowing in vaccine stock while the other 7 billion people on the planet go without because of the refusal to lift patents.
