For the record JoeScum: Pfizer was not part of Trump's warp speed

[malaise]

Germany funded the development of Pfizer’s COVID vaccine—not U.S.’s Operation Warp Speed

https://fortune.com/2020/11/09/pfizer-vaccine-funding-warp-speed-germany/

It’s said that success has many authors, and the encouraging data from Pfizer Inc.’s experimental COVID-19 vaccine had plenty of people in Washington lining up to take credit.

Vice President Mike Pence was among Trump administration officials saying support from the government’s Operation Warp Speed program helped accelerate the development of the vaccine, which was found to be more than 90% effective in preventing symptomatic COVID-19 infections in an interim analysis.

The truth is that Pfizer didn’t receive any funding from Operation Warp Speed for the development, clinical trial and manufacturing of the vaccine. Rather, its partner, BioNTech SE, has received money -- from the German government.
-------------------
You LIED AGAIN JoeScum.
That is all

[SammyWinstonJack]

1. He lied and the former guy will happily repeat it, claiming the

beautiful vaccine is ALL because of him.🤥

[gab13by13]

2. You are right, as usual, malaise,

I believe that Moderna and AstraZeneca took Warp Speed money.

[niyad]

14. Don't forget that Dolly Parton donated a million for moderna research.

[malaise]

17. THIS

[Sherman A1]

3. How is drama TV this morning?

I’m guessing that you are not enjoying the commentary on fantasy news this AM.

[malaise]

18. I watch the beginning before heading for my walk

That lie was way too obvious this morning

[Sherman A1]

21. I watch NHK while on the exercise bike

Just news and no blather.

[djacq]

4. Taken a long break from Morning Joe;

Started when the "Former" Rep. Charles Joseph Scarborough said that
the Biden Administration was inviting immigrants and refugees to come to the southern border.

Most of the time, Morning Joe is nothing more than Joe's Soapbox.

[duforsure]

5. I quit watching him in the mornings, and now watch CNN

Now that they have Brianna K on in the mornings. Joe's rating are about to get a lot lower, and hers will go up. She's really, really good.

[badhair77]

6. I followed Brianna to New Day also.

She’s smart and snarky. Scarborough lost me several weeks ago when he decided to repeatedly yell at Sean Patrick Maloney. I don’t need that in my kitchen early in the morning. Also, MJ is the same guests, the same promotions of their friends’ books, the same routine. Boring.

[Traildogbob]

7. Same here

Briana all the way. No more squinty and the meat puppet. Joe scum, Chucky Todd and A Mitchell are nauseating.

[mucifer]

8. Is her show new? I don't have cable tv. I listen to msnbc on the tunein app for free

they have cnn too.

Will switch from mourning joe to her.

[Traildogbob]

9. Yes

First week at CNN in that same morning slot-opposite Squinty. She is killing it. Drop kicking Fox and all there scums. Roll the Tape segment fillets their lies.

[msfiddlestix]

10. i hope you sent this to Scar Mouth directly or at least MSNBC news division to correct the record,

oh and thanks malaise for informing us on the facts, cuz like, I didn't know that.

[malaise]

19. He knows he was lying

[msfiddlestix]

25. I often think he doesn't actually.

I've observed statements (way too many) he asserts all manner of comments as if factual clearly doesn't give just a little bit of fact checking before spewing his Right Wing Hackery. And boy howdy is he defensive as hell.

[malaise]

26. But this was public knowledge from November 9, 2020

It has been known for ages. Why did he think he'd get away with this blatant lie?

[msfiddlestix]

27. But guess who else didn't know, that would be me.. :)

Generally, I'm fairly informed... but there's always a ton of stuff I didn't catch from the beginning. I vaguely remember (now that you mentioned it) some of this backdrop, but frankly what stuck in my head is that the Con artist in Chief gave Phyzer the green light in whatever corrupt grifting kind of way that he does. I figured he gave them all kinds of tax breaks and lawd knows what else.

But I'm not a journalist, and it's pretty damn important for Scar Mouth to get his facts correct, and that's the point. Right?

Regardless if it was common knowledge or not. amirite?

[Yonnie3]

11. I know a gentleman who works for Pfizer

He manages two sites of Covid vaccine trials' data collection. When I asked about Operation Warp Speed he just shook his head. He said their were many WTF? internal emails after the Pence statement.

There was a guaranteed purchase if the vaccine got a EUA, but NO money up front from the US government.

[Tommymac]

12. Joe & his wife, Geraldo, Todd, Mitchell, Crowley ... pond scum I never have watched and never will.

I will watch MSNBC after 4PM.

And this is a new behavior for me - last place I got my news on TV was Jon Stewart on Comedy Central.

No lie.

[malaise]

16. Jon Stewart gave us more news than most of them

This was such an obvious lie this morning

[Jetheels]

13. Didn't Joescum want to be trumps vp. I thought that Joe not being chosen was why their marriage

broke up. Although I can’t find anything about that on the internet now, these stories, I’m noticing, disappear from online.

[doc03]

15. Now really if any president was confronted with COVID 19 he or she would have done the same

thing. That is their f---g job. But what other president would have told us at the same time it was a Democrat hoax or
told us to inject bleach?

[malaise]

20. Great post

[doc03]

23. It's like he does one thing in 4 years a normal president would have

done and he deserves extra credit. Give me a break.

[malaise]

24. And that after lying about the danger associated with the virus

He called it a hoax

[maxrandb]

22. MSNBC sucks ass all the way to 4 PM

Switched to CNN and keep it there until Nichole Wallace.

Joe Scarbourough?

Andrea Mitchell?

Stephanie Ruehl?

Chuck Todd?

Alex Witt?

NO THANKS!
