  1. Bill Gates calls Trump's de-funding of WHO dangerous

    Trump is making sure that he will be an one time president... the history will put Trump as the worst that has ever happened to the white house.

  2. Bill Gates calls Trump's de-funding of WHO dangerous

    Darn sure hope you are correct. The guy is nothing but a lying imbecile that shouldn't have gotten elected to begin with! Whether or not we pay the most is almost irrelevant. Some body has to pay the most whether by a lot or a little. Just look at the idiots he's picked for his new task force to see what kind of idiot he is!

  3. Apple announces the 4.7-inch iPhone SE for $399

    I'm pleasantly surprised by the price, especially for what you get: A13 bionic processor, new camera, and many years of software support.

  5. Bill Gates calls Trump's de-funding of WHO dangerous

    Highly doubtful. Besides having to deal with this crisis, the state of the country has been at it's strongest state ever. Trump is taking the stance of calling countries and organizations out that have leeched off US funding but not provided sufficient benefits. How is that a bad thing? But hey, if you allow the whiney media do to your thinking, that's your choice... If Trump found a cure for cancer, you and your media thinkers would still find a way to spin it negatively...

  7. Bill Gates calls Trump's de-funding of WHO dangerous

    It's a pretty well documented fact that the WHO downplayed covid-19 early on and was more or less covering for China in the process instead of calling for quicker and more strict action as soon as the start of January. If all these other countries have a issue, they're more than free to boost their own funding to the WHO if they want. There's real no reason why one country should pay for most of this stuff when peoples health should be more global anyways. When the #2 spot is a foundation while all these other countries are lower on the list, it just shows how the whole thing is pretty silly. I'd much rather a chunk of that money that went to the WHO went to the CDC at this point.

    It's still a pointless cost adder at this point. 5G either isn't available or doesn't have a great performance benefit for almost the entire population. We need 2-3 more years for the technology to improve and roll out.

    If you want premium features, you have to pay for it... That hasn’t been a premium feature for years. It’s on budget phones now. And those budget phones will have low tier performance. The point of a phone is how it functions and not what it looks like... I'd much rather have bezels and great performance and support than classy looks but a laggy and unsupported experience. It's ultimately the buyers choice though.

    This is *really* good. I'd go for an iPhone if I had the ability to split screen and do picture in picture. iPhones tend to last many many years. I think this is the cheapest phone you can get on the market right now that could last you well over 5 years.

  14. Bill Gates calls Trump's de-funding of WHO dangerous

    Bill Gates has warned, repeatedly, about the threat of global pandemics. His tweet is spot on with respect to the W.H.O. Sure, their response should be looked at, investigated so that lessons can be learned. However, cutting funding isn't the answer or the solution. This is just a knee-jerk, idiotic response from someone who said: "I don't take responsibility at all"

You mean, as opposed to the right wingers who loudly chanted that Michelle Obama was propagandizing that people should drink more WATER? Or the multiple times where Pres. Obama did something that is completely normal, and screamed how it was "unpresidential" (tan suit, playing with babies in the oval office, going on a bike ride etc). These same individuals now think the Grifter-in-Chief, the chronic liar in the White House is acting perfectly normal and Presidential... Yeah, if you allow the rightwing media (FOX and OAN) to do your thinking, that's your choice.

    If you want premium features, you have to pay for it... Plus this is the exact screen size and form factor that a lot of people want. A lot of phones are borderline unusable with one hand these days.

Do you have any evidence to back up that the state of the country has been at its strongest ever? Or that the WHO has been leeching off the US? Or that other countries/organizations been leeching off the US? Don't get me wrong, I don't trust a word Trump says and want some hard facts to read. Not that its even remotely plausible that Trump find a cure for cancer, but of course there would people that would spin it negatively. Just like the same could be said of Obama (again remotely plausible) finding a cure for cancer. Stock market at all time highs, GDP at all time highs, full employment, shrinking lower class, increasing household income, increasing home ownership, superior international trade agreements, etc. The list could continue. Industry and the general population are thriving. The media just likes to ignore the important facts and push a narrative that he's a mean racist that only cares about rich people. All the facts point otherwise though, and more people are realizing that the media's only tactic to artificially create problems and tension. None of which trump had anything to do with. The economy was made strong again due to the work of the Obama Administration and everyone outside of the foxnews knows this, post another failed republican president who wrecked it. Now we see how over his head running a country with an unqualified and imbecilic crew of tea partiers can do it.

But hey, if you allow the whiney media do to your thinking, that's your choice... If Trump found a cure for cancer, you and your media thinkers would still find a way to spin it negatively... He does whatever it takes to divert from his failures. Blaming the WHO for something he was warned about in December, again in January and once more in February by his advisers. He even claimed last year that the WHO can't be trusted, so why did he suddenly trust them when it came to this pandemic. I'm so glad that his TV ratings are great again. /s It's hard to shut down an economy when there were little facts of what the virus would eventually do. It's not like the US lagged behind the rest of the world at it's response. It's more of the opposite actually. What does the WHO offer that country's can't do themselves? If you can't give a good answer to that question, then what's the point of funding that organization? Talk is cheap, but solutions are worthy of funding. Plus it's pretty clear that the WHO and China are tight buddies, which is obviously the exact opposite of who you want to be giving money to right now... The U.S. did lag ... The administration did not even do a thing until the WHO had already declared the virus as a global health emergency. Dr. Fauci himself has stated that a) it is a failing that there were not enough resources or supplies and b) that more lives could have been saved if current directives had been issued sooner. One knows the ball was dropped when the President has to retroactively refer to his measure on 31 January as a 'Chinese ban' ( that the measure blocked travel to and from China ) when that is not only not true ... but even his so-called 'Muslim ban' was more exhaustive than his measure. We are discussing the same person who said he knew it was a pandemic 'long before' it was called that ... but did not react in a commensurate manner.

The stock market yes it's the highest ever, but the stock market <> the economy, GDP isn't at an all-time high, look at https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/gdp-growth. Lower class isn't shrinking, https://www.pewsocialtrends.or...come-and-wealth-inequality/ "superior international trade agreements" sounds like an opinion, you have a source to back that up? Being there's only NAFTA 2.0 and "phase one" of the trade deal with China signed agreements, both of which was signed this year. We don't have any numbers on how those two trade agreements are working. So, saying they are superior is a little too premature.

    Nothing has changed: * Bill Gates is still the privileged nerd with zero empathy for others. Bill Gates should write the book "How to elude to pay taxes and profit from it (and some idiots call me a good person)!". * Trump is a crock and a womanizer but nobody is fooling to think the opposite. But, if you compare Trump with practically every dems candidate around here, then Trump is a holy saint. Do you want to oust Trump? Then give me a good candidate. * WHO = Politics. Who needs them? Nobody. * China = It still hates Winnie the Pooh. China is guilty of everything! * And some members of the forum = I follow my "master" to the death!. Sheesh with those manservants. But I have the solution to this problem. Bill Gates should give (from his own pocket) money to WHO. Everybody wins!.
