Wuhan is pretty big. City of 12 million. Capital of a province with 60 million.
That story didn't start with her. It's a couple of years old.
The site that published that story first claimed 650 planeloads of gold. Then later it claimed it was spaceships.
My main take on her is i don't think she has any insider info. She just seems like someone who got pilled. And reads sites like these.
The Vatican gold thing appeared on an extremely dubious site a few years ago. Seemed like clickbait. First they claimed it was 650 planes.....later they claimed it was spaceships.
In general, I think human tendency is if this person says something I disagree with, they can't be good.
If the person says something I agree with, well then they must really know what they are talking about.
If they say something we get excited about, we don't look into their claim much.
An example. Look how fast Democrats adopted a guy like Michael Avenatti.
Prior to becoming on a somebody on this community 25 days ago, she's been mentioned 3 times total on GAW. There was a total of 9 comments.
Was GAW paying attention to her in 2016 when she was saying Trump was psychologically unbalanced and or when she said this in 2017
He is not the only pig. It's indefensible and there are many, many pigs."
She claimed that she gave Trump a psychological test. She claimed to be a member of Trump's transition team and 'a consultant to the Trump Transition" but she seems to have a history of exaggerating claims in the press.
She was going on multiple British TV shows claiming to be the VP of Republicans Overseas months after she left the group and they had to send her a cease and desist letter. http://republicansoverseas.com/wp-content/uploads/LettertoJanHalper-Hayes.pdf
If she was part of the Trump transition team, that should be a discoverable fact that would establish credibility.
She does have one of those donor/supporter photos with Trump. So perhaps she has some bona fides and I'm completely wrong.
Do you think Trump really knows Sunny Nguyen from Truth Social?
https://truthsocial.com/@SunnyNguyen/110963584977529527
or @FruitSnacks, or @Lara47 or @STKOLBEOFPOLAND
And, of course, loose was not what I said.
can you link to this a 1973 law? Because what you describe here is the 1978 law.
The Presidential Records Act (PRA) of 1973 changed the legal status of presidential records.
Info on the 1978 https://www.archives.gov/presidential-libraries/laws/1978-act.html
You think Trump knows the people he retruths?
He's a guy who loves flattery.
She's a nobody
Secretary of State Raffensberger testified saying he felt it was a campaign call. A lawyer who was on that call testified saying they are not an employee of the federal government.
Prosecutors are saying this is outside the scope of Mark Meadows federal job but this is campaign related activity. Therefore it cannot be moved to federal court.
Closing arguments are about to happen.
Four other people want to try this move to get their case taken to federal court. People were saying that Mark Meadows actually had the best case of all of them because folks like Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell are not employed by the federal government where Mark Meadows did have that role in the executive branch.
Trump is going to try and get his case. Moved to federal court too. I bet.
If for nothing else just to delay the trial
Court just came back from lunch. No phones in the courtroom, so that's why there's not much updates. CNN has two people there. Presumably one sneaks out to write an update, and they switch off.
So the biggest news is that Meadows actually got on the stand. Most legal experts did not think he would because he will have to be cross examined under oath.
He is trying to say this is just my job. Prosectuors are trying to say campaign work is not part of his job.
And 4 other GA defendants are going to try this same thing....get their cases moved to federal court. Folks expect Trump to try it too.
So the other biggest thing so far is
Meadows questioned about setting up call where Trump told Georgia officials to "find" votes to win state
Meadows said that Trump had “a concern” about potential fraud in Atlanta and was hoping to figure out "a less-litigious way of resolving” his issues with the election results in Georgia.
Willis’ prosecutors have repeatedly highlighted that Meadows included outside, pro-Trump lawyers on that call – people who were not federal employees and didn’t work at the Department of Justice, for instance.
...
Meadows said he didn’t recall a specific conversation with Cleta Mitchell, a private attorney assisting Trump, to get her on the call with Raffensperger. He said he also couldn’t recall looping in members of Trump’s campaign to the call.
Meadows grew somewhat exasperated as the prosecutor questioned why his role would include setting up a call to settle private litigation. Meadows pointed to Trump’s needs as he perceived them.
“I dealt with the president’s personal position on a number of things. It’s still a part of my job to make sure the president is safe and secure and able to perform his job,” Meadows said. “Serving the president of the United States is what I do, to be clear.”
No. It's a federal court hearing. Meadows is trying to use a federal law the move the case. The original law is like from the 1800's and was written so a local cop couldn't arrest a federal officer for doing something like going after the Klan.
Meadows has to show he was acting as part of his job, not as part of the Trump campaign.
I think that tweet was the original, earliest source of the news that he died.
I wanted to make sure it wasn't just a rumor.
He has denied a couple of things in the indictment so far and the cross examination has just started.
how many confederate president were there?
Imagine how slow the mail was back then.
So I doubt it.
My good friend Joe Wurzelbacher, aka Joe the Plumber, passed away this morning at the age of 49 from pancreatic cancer.
No third party President has ever won a presidency.
This was a weird election where the Democrats endorsed The Liberal Republican candidate against Republican Ulysses Grant. It was a third party, but still a two party race and they got over 40% https://www.wikiwand.com/en/1872_United_States_presidential_election
In 1856, the Know-Nothings aka the Native American party, aka the American party got 20+% of the vote by running ex-president Millard Fillmore....who became President when Zachary Taylor died.
This was during a period of political realignment over slavery right before the Civil War
https://www.wikiwand.com/en/1856_United_States_presidential_election#Results
Theodore Roosevelt ran again for President in 1912 and caused President Taft to lose to Wilson. Taft succeeded Roosevelt, but Rooselvelt didn't like his policies and ran again. When he lost the nomination, he bolted the party and started a new party.
Probably the only race with three eventual Presidents in it.
Roosevelt got 27% of the vote.
That's the only 3 times a third party ever got about 20% https://www.wikiwand.com/en/1912_United_States_presidential_election
I think Trump asked for a 2026 trial date right?
This doesn't make much sense
If Joe Biden was President due to 1 & 3, he could invoke Executive Privilege, you know… the privilege of the Executive Branch, to squash all of the Documents chatter… because like it or not, President’s CAN hold certain documents.
Aren't some of the Docs Biden has from his time in the Senate? And thus executive privilege and the PRA wouldn't apply.
Also there is no Presidential Records Act from 1973
There's a law from 1974. But it only applied to Nixon Presidential Recordings and Materials Preservation Act (PRMPA) of 1974.
Then in 1978 they passed the full Presidential Records Act.
President’s CAN hold certain documents.
Only while President. And even when a President is President, they should handle classified material appropriately.
Executive Order 13489 explicitly says this
"Presidential records" refers to those documentary materials maintained by NARA pursuant to the Presidential Records Act, including Vice Presidential records.
There are many problems to his idea of invoking Executive Privilege.
- Executive Privilege doesn't apply to all Presidential records. It only covers some records involving
military, diplomatic, or national security secrets (the state secrets privilege); communications of the President or his advisors (the presidential communications privilege); legal advice or legal work (the attorney-client or attorney work product privileges); deliberative processes of the President or his advisors (the deliberative process privilege).
-
A claim of executive privilege by a former president must be upheld by the current president. If Trump makes a claim of executive privilege, the Decider is Joe Biden.
-
EP has nothing whatsover to do with a former president getting to keep records. Zero. The whole process described in Executive Order 13489 is about records kept BY NARA.
A. Someone requests a record from NARA B. The former president whose term the record is from gets notified by NARA, we are going to release this record. Do you want to claim EP. C. If the former president claims EP, then D. The current president makes the decision they are going to uphold this claim of executive privilege.
The enter time the document is in the National Archives.
There's tons of links about Trump taking Remdesivir.

Here's the White House doctor discussing his condition https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-oXvVueK6Y
I'd love a sauce for Nixon started the idea.
but you can bet that Nixon gave Trump a few tips about how the swamp can mess with you. It certainly messed with him.
Nixon was pretty comfortable with the swamp.
He gave the dairy industry $100 million dollars is subsidies after milk lobbyists contributed $2 million dollars to him. The hid the donation by breaking it up among hundreds of PACs. One of the PACs was called Americans United for Honesty in Government
The head of the American Milk Producers and his top Lobbyist were convicted of bribery https://www.nytimes.com/1974/08/01/archives/exhead-of-milk-coop-pleads-guilty-of-plot-to-bribe-connally.html
The former head of the nation's largest milk cooperative pleaded guilty today to a charge that he conspired to bribe former Secretary of the Treasury John B. Connally, who was indicted Monday on a charge of accepting $10,000 in illegal payments.
The dairy official, Harold S. Nelson, former general manager of Associated Milk Producers, Inc., was the third principal in the case to be charged. Jake Jacobsen, a Texas lawyer who represented the co‐op, was indicted Monday along with Mr. Connally, and was charged with making the alleged payments.
These two guys were convicted of bribing John Connally, but Connally got acquitted. Connally called Billy Graham and Jackie Kennedy as character witnesses.
Associated Milk Producers, Inc itself plead guilty to six crimes.
The Nixon Tapes capture that President Nixon was well aware of this scheme and that it could cost $100 million dollars. On the tape John Ehrlichman, the president's counsel, said,
'Well, we better get ourselves some milk before the price goes up. Let's get it while it's still cheap.'"
In the smoking gun tape, John Dean tells Nixon the Watergate coverup is going to be expensive. He said, I picked a number I thought would scare him.
https://millercenter.org/the-presidency/educational-resources/you-could-get-a-million-dollars
President Nixon: How much money do you need?
Dean: I would say these people are going to cost a million dollars over the next two years.
Short pause.
President Nixon: We could get that.
Dean: Mm-hmm.
President Nixon: If you—on the money, if you need the money, I mean, you could get the money fairly easily.
Dean: Well, I think that we’re--
President Nixon: What I meant is, you could get a million dollars. And you could get it in cash. I know where it could be gotten.
Covid Vaccine trials data can be found on the web.
Some trials have involved 40,000 people in just one trial for one vaccine. They use volunteers not military personnel. They were also conducted all over the world.
You can find info here https://clinicaltrials.gov/
If you select Covid-19 and then go to the filters you can see over two thousand active trials and four thousand completed trials. This is not all vaccine trials, but treatments and therapeutics..
Looking for participants Not yet recruiting (477) Recruiting (1,544)
No longer looking for participants Active, not recruiting (690) Completed (3,948) Terminated (466)
Filtering for vaccine and up to April 2021, I found 51 completed Vaccine trials.

The info and results of these studies are out there. The results are public so doctors all over the world can review them.
you're welcome.
Trump praised Remdesivir on several occasions.
We’ve done an incredible job, whether it’s the vaccines which are coming, the therapeutics, which are already here — therapeutics. They’re already here, and they started — remdesivir and others. The plasma is working out incredibly well.
The country is doing well. Jobs are doing fantastically well. I think the virus, hopefully, is rounding the turn, rounding the corner. The vaccines are going to be out soon. The therapeutics have been fantastic. Already, remdesivir and others — the plasma — have had a very big impact if you look at the results. https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/articles/remarks-president-trump-air-force-one-arrival-reno-nv-9-12-2020/
But yesterday I announced that the FDA had issued an emergency use authorization for convalescent plasma — you probably saw that — which has proven to be an incredible reducer. It’s going to reduce mortality by at least 35 percent; it could be much more than that. We’ll see the final numbers, but it could be even higher than that. And we did remdesivir and lots of other things. https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefings-statements/remarks-president-trump-farmers-families-food-box-program-distribution-mills-river-nc/
When i search the Trump White House Archives for Remdesivir, I get 85 hits.
That first article is about a single days meetings. And probably means Trump wanted to golf that weekend.
The second article confirms what I suspected.
Donald Trump will be spending his first weekend at Trump National Golf Club as president-elect.
There's tons of evidence of that Trump did not move his transition team out of Trump Tower. Dec 3 https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/trump-presidential-transition-1.3863762
Since winning the Nov. 8 U.S. election, Donald Trump has spent much of his time hunkered down with advisers in his Trump Tower in Manhattan as he prepares to become the country's 45th president on Jan. 20.
Dec 15 https://techcrunch.com/2016/12/15/oracle-ceo-safra-catz-joins-trump-transition-team/
Oracle’s chief executive Safra Catz will join President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team, an Oracle spokesperson told TechCrunch.
Catz was one of several top tech executives that attended a meeting with Trump, his children and his advisors yesterday at Trump Tower in New York.
This was all documented.
A. There was no wiretap. B. Rodgers confirmed this himself. C. The Trump Transitionteam met at Trump Tower all through November, December and January.
And do you think Trump wouldn't say anything for two YEARS?
Toni Atkins is staying in her job, but not as leader. She can't run for reelection due to term limits.
Gina Fiandaca didn't seem to be doing a good job.
Justin Michael Morgan seems to be dreaming big.
Stuart Delery is the most interesting. As the White House Counsel will be involved in lot of stuff going forward. But also, Biden just asked people to commit now through next year's election or leave.
Mike Oglesby said in 2020, he would leave in 3 years
Charlie Gerow is fighting with CPAC over Matt Schlapp who is facing a sexual harrassment lawsuit.
Alex Ludlum? my god, read that article. Dude organized a DOOM LOOP walking tour of SF, you think that might have anything to do with him being shoved out?
The Episcopal priest? You wonder why they asked him to take a leave of absence? https://www.episcopalnewsservice.org/2023/05/25/episcopal-priest-in-maryland-on-leave-after-report-reveals-child-sexual-abuse-allegation-from-1976/
The British Museum director? The guy who didn't pay attention when somebody told him artifacts were showing on ebay? What an expected firing.
