that we don't even know about? I'm so curious about whether or not Pence got COVID and we never even learned about it. Peter Navarro basically disappeared off the face of the earth for 3 weeks.

dr. carson, no prayers, no support from here. Thousands dying every day BECAUSE they cannot and will not receive the care you and your boss can access. Doctors and nurses have burned out in phenomenal numbers because of your and your bosses failure to address this pandemic for the safety and health of the American people. Fuck you ben carson. I hope you, your boss and most of the cowardly GOP burn in hell for the eternity promised in one of the prominent holy books.

Dangerous Oleander Extract Not a COVID-19 Cure — "That would definitely end up killing people"

by Kristina Fiore, Director of Enterprise & Investigative Reporting, MedPage Today

August 18, 2020

An unusual and highly toxic compound is making headlines after President Trump reportedly supported it in a conversation in the Oval Office.

Axios reports that Trump voiced support for oleandrin, a botanical made from the poisonous oleander plant, during a July meeting attended by MyPillow.com founder and CEO Mike Lindell and Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Ben Carson, MD.

Lindell, a longtime Trump supporter who has a stake in the biotech that's developing oleandrin -- Phoenix Biotechnology -- told Axios that Trump said "the FDA should be approving it."

FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn, MD, has resisted any efforts around the compound, according to Axios, but Phoenix Biotechnology director Andrew Whitney has said if he can't get oleandrin to market as a drug, he'll push for it as a dietary supplement.
