Greetings and sell you. Welcome back my hawk watching friends as we begin a new week in the age of 19 here in the United States of america recent days have brought us a tale of 2 protests one featured americans split all walks of life joining together to take out a corrupt system of oppression that is robbing people of their livelihoods and liberty in a time of crisis the other featured lots and lots of predominantly white people and very well armed americans throwing temper tantrums over not being able to go to the store.

Need them to do because no one else can do it so i mean its a long story larry but i say that the Trump Administration was d a bit slow at the outskirt but it wasnt all their fault because honestly they were not left with a lot in place for the preceding ministrations i can tell you by coincidence d in 2014 tom ridge the former secretary of Homeland Security and i were arrested cochair a commission a Bipartisan Commission on bio of the fence and a big focus of it was are we ready for an Infectious Disease pandemic we put out a report yeah 2015 and we said the country is not prepare made a series of recommendations a number of them are actually put in the statute by congress and the president trunk not all rob but trump got around to doing one of the things we asked the president to do which was to adopt a National Strategy of what we would do in the case of a and then fictious disease pandemic or a biote
Are you doing ok medically. When i started i was actually really shocked how ill people were on the street it was like going to a 3rd world country. And this is a map that shows you the foreclosures initiated over the last 2 years every single one as for the. 3rd what about you know its pretty well that.
