Seema Verma
Seema Verma is a member of the Coronavirus Task Force under VP Pence. I thought she was a medical doctor or scientist like other members of the Task Force but it turns out she is not. She was appointed by Trump to serve as as administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the agency that oversees Medicare, Medicaid, and the insurance markets. She should be canned from her position on the Task Force, IMO. Her views and positions are political in nature and not medical or scientific. I watched an interview of her conducted by Martha MacCallum. Martha is obviously very conservative in her political views but she's a very tenacious interviewer and tries to cut through political bull****. She asked Seema Verma if the USA health system has the resources .... beds, respirators, ICU facilities to handle a potential spike in the number of people who become ill with the coronavirus and require extraordinary care. Verma deftly ignored the question and went on and on about how great Trump and Pence are and the great job the task force was doing. Martha tried several times to interrupt Verma and focus back on her question but Verma ignored it over and over. MacCallum became obviously frustrated with her and tried again. Still, Verma refused to directly answer. Martha finally ran out of the interview's allotted time and ended it commenting that Verma never answered the question. The American public needs to hear the truth, not a bunch of political spin. Other members of the Task Force, notably Dr. Anthony Fauci have been much more forthcoming when asked questions and don't try to cover things up. Seema Verma should be held accountable to speak truthfully as well or get off the Task Force. -- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com |

Seema Verma should be held accountable to speak truthfully as well or get off the Task Force. From wiki: On August 20, 2018, Verma filed a claim requesting that taxpayers reimburse her for jewelry that was allegedly stolen on a work-related trip to San Francisco. Although she requested $47,000, including a $325 claim for moisturizer and a $5,900 Ivanka Trump-brand pendant, she ultimately received $2,852.40 in reimbursement. Just another sleazy Trumpster. It's a little disheartening to see her standing behind Pence during the coronavirus task force briefings and occasionally being asked to speak. Given the crisis that exists right now we need facts not politics. -- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com |

It is obvious when it comes to the concerns of ordinary people, he doesn't know anything, he doesn't want to know anything, and he doesn't give a ****. That flat-line talk he gave the other night from the Oval Office was a classic, especially when contrasted with yesterday's presentations from Bernie and Joe, both of whom actually care about Americans. Trump and his family probably are trying to figure out how to make a buck from corona. |

I don't really pay too much attention to what he says about the coronavirus crisis anyway. He's not a Dr. and he's not an expert. He has a role to play in this but it's not giving medical or scientific advice or information. His role is to try and prevent runaway panic. That's why I singled out Seema Verna. She's *supposed* to be an "expert" but she's nothing but a bull****ter. -- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com |

That's a tough combination to beat in a highly competitive global marketplace. 95% of our printed circuit boards come from China. Should be a huge tariff to level the field on those. We depend on technology for our military being fantastic. How do we supply them if China stops doing the boards? Way to much dependence on single source. I will use Rubbermaid as an example. For years was listed as one of the best run companies in the world. They let Walmart be the outlet for 85% of their output. When raw materials cost went up, Rubbermaid want a cost increase. Walmart demanded a decrease in price. Now Rubbermaid is Chinese owned and they are the 5th owner. Single source problem? |
