Who the heck is Velvet Jones in this pandemic? What relevance does some random unnamed book have?
Why should we care? I tried to find some info in this thread https://www.democraticunderground.com/100213302746 but it is long and I didn't finish all of it.
What does Giuliani have to do with Covid-19?
We aren't watching your TV channel all day like you. So we don't have your knowledge. Call us stupid and clueless if it helps.
