The Oklahoma Attorney General?s Office has been tasked with attempting to return a $2 million stockpile of a malaria drug touted by former President Donald Trump as a way to treat the coronavirus. In April, Gov. Kevin Stitt, who ordered the hydroxychloroquine purchase, defended it by saying that while it may not be a useful treatment for the coronavirus, the drug had multiple other uses and ?that money will not have gone to waste in any respect.? But nearly a year later the state is trying to offload the drug back to its original supplier, California-based FFF Enterprises, Inc, a private pharmaceutical wholesaler. Alex Gerszewski, a spokesman for Oklahoma Attorney General Mike Hunter, said this week that the AG?s office was working with the state health department ?to try to figure out a solution.? Gerszewski said Hunter?s office had gotten

involved at the request of the Oklahoma State Department of Health. Stitt was criticized last year for the $2 million purchase, a move viewed by some as a partisan move to curry favor with conservatives who were defending Trump amid criticism of his own support of the drug. - - - Bozo Binned: Herring, Bert Robbins, JackGoff 452471atgmail.com, Just-AN-Asshole, Tim, AMDX, and Gunboy Alex, aka the Gang of Dull, Witless, Insult-Tossing Trumpsters. If you are on this list, I don't see most of your posts and I don't read any of them. You complain about that. Governor Newsom ordered a $billion of masks from China, making a down payment of $500 million. 3 months later we still had not received any masks and not sure if we ever got them or the money back. I would say the difference is that Oklahoma was duped by Trump but since Trump is an intellectual cipher, maybe the "duping" was not intentional. I wonder if the California issue you raise has been

resolved.
Has it? The masks were and are needed, unlike the Trump medication.Speaking of the ex-potus you so admire, I hope his banishment from twitter is permanent. As a national political figure, he has nothing to add to civil discourse. I don't expect the wussie Republicans in the Senate to vote to convict him, but I do have hope federal and state courts will initiate serious criminal cases against Trump.-- Bozo Binned: Herring, Bert Robbins, JackGoff 452471atgmail.com,Just-AN-Asshole, Tim, AMDX, and Gunboy Alex, aka the Gang of Dull,Witless, Insult-Tossing Trumpsters.

Trump made good use of Twitter while it was available. Would you
prefer that the half of the country with opposing views to yours
be silenced?

The problem with Twitter is that there is no fact checking or content
moderation. Anyone can get on there and make what ever wild ass
claims they want. Trump used that to full advantage and now we've the
the fringe, nut-job conspiracy groups doing the same.
