WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States has decided to postpone a meeting with leaders of Southeast Asian countries it had planned to host on March 14 due to worries about the coronavirus outbreak, two U.S. officials familiar with the matter said on Friday.
U.S. President Donald Trump had invited leaders of the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) to meet in Las Vegas after he did not attend a summit with the group in Bangkok in November.
“As the international community works together to defeat the novel coronavirus, the United States, in consultation with ASEAN partners, has made the difficult decision to postpone the ASEAN leaders meeting,” one of the sources, a senior administration official, told Reuters.
Apparently the Trump administration is still receiving the Post and Times after all and has now been taken in by the hoaxy fear-mongering, panic-spreading coverage. Hannity and Limbaugh will not let this stand!

Trump lashes out at Fox News for new poll showing him losing to all the Democratic candidates
President Donald Trump lashed out on Friday at the network that normally covers him so favorably over a new national poll that shows him losing hypothetical head-to-head popular vote matchups against all six of the top Democratic presidential candidates.
“Worst Polls, just like in 2016 when they were so far off the mark, are the @FoxNews Polls,” Trump tweeted on Friday morning.

Profound political commentary from Fox Nation hosts Diamond & Silk, at CPAC: The last four letters of “Democrats” spell “rats,” while the last four letters of “Republican” spell “I can.”

No, gossip does not take an education. Tabloid level insult. Condescending garbage. Thanks.

A common sci fi theme over the decades has an advanced alien race observing mankind and seeing unusual promise in us has then stepped in to help us develop to even greater levels of potential. The following suggests to me that we probably ought not to expect such a future event.

Nope. It was the guy investigating Hunter Biden's corrupt dealings with Burisma "holdings", and them funneling funds out of the Ukraine using various bogus means, quite possibly implicating Joe, the SoS Clinton, and Obama himself.
Quote:
The prosecutor who has investigated Burisma is Kostiantyn Kulyk, who previously met Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani to discuss accusations against the Bidens.
After he took office in late August, Ryaboshapka launched a wide-ranging audit of criminal cases to see whether they had been conducted properly. Thirteen of them relate to Burisma founder Mykola Zlochevsky, Ryaboshapka told reporters at a briefing on Wednesday.
His predecessors oversaw a series of investigations into Zlochevsky, a multimillionaire former minister of ecology and natural resources. The allegations concern tax violations, money-laundering and licences given to Burisma during the period where Zlochevsky was a minister.
Did anybody here other than me catch Pamela Bondi's little 31-minute total demolition of the entire case that the house impeachment managers were trying to concoct? I mean, talk about brilliant, this was like watching Joan of Arc in action.
The entire demmunist case hinged on a claim that Joe and Hunter-Gatherer Biden were more pure than new-fallen snow that no dog had ever yet peed on and, yet, that claim was easily and overwhelmingly debunked; Joe and Hunter-Gatherer turn out to be a pair of vicious evil criminals who had been conducting gangster operations on an international scale. That is why those fools could not even come up with a single GOP vote other than for head-case Mitt Romney to remove Donald Trump from office and even lost a couple of their own votes.
They say they plan on impeaching DT again but they will get less respect than Rodney Dangerfield ever got if they do. I'd picture them being greeted by laugh music as they walk in the door.
I didn't pay much attention to the impeachment debacle. I already knew that the left had no case to make. I heard a bit about it on the nightly news, but that's about it.

The fact that you or others agreed with Obama's pressure on Ukraine doesn't make it any different from Mr. Trump's pressure on Ukraine.

Rep. John Garamendi (D-Calif.) on Friday said the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases was told to "stand down" and not appear on five Sunday morning talk shows to discuss the coronavirus.
Garamendi told MSNBC's Hallie Jackson that Anthony Fauci was scheduled to do all five major Sunday talk shows, but says Fauci canceled the appearances after Vice President Pence took over the administration's response to the disease.

Oh, yeah, Adam Schiff... Many were wondering what exactly that little pencip-neck bug-eyed varmint was about...
Basically, Schiff is up to his eyeballs in the same kind of stupid **** that made Jeffrey Epstein famous.

Of course there is no cite, unless you consider Breitbart or Project Veritas 'cites'....

Do you have a cite for this assertion of yours?
Take the time to soak up this information package. It would be front-page news, in a world not convinced that Trump is the antichrist.
And you seriously think that if Biden could land his drug-addict son a 50G a month posting, where Hunter doesn't even front up to work, that Clinton wouldn't be hot on his heels soaking up the moolah as well?
And Obama is just over there totally clueless to these machinations?
