59. Updating info on this matter from whistle-blower

Thu Feb 27, 2020, 09:05 PM

Feb 2020

As the whistle-blower said, quarantined, untrained and unprotected federal employees in late January/early February assisted the cruise ship and armed forces evacuees at Travis Air Force Base in Solano County, CA. That is the same county that hospitalized woman is from, our first case of "community transmission." She was hospitalized February 15.

All caused by rump's incompetence. Plain and simple as the nose on your face. Good grief. SWBTATTReg Feb 2020 #1

Sure. But his cult seems to be growing instead of shrinking. Dark n Stormy Knight Feb 2020 #65
