Rand Paul’s wife bought gilead stock in February of 2020. You know, the company that makes remdesvir.
Let’s take away the details of covid that are being brought up here and focus on one question.
If you knew a global pandemic was about to occur before anyone else and you had the opportunity to cash in on that, would you consider that to be an ethical choice?
Cut to January 24th, 2020. A closed doors meeting is held, attended only by US senators, that addresses the incoming covid 19 pandemic and how it would affect the US. After the meeting, US senator Kelly loeffler and her husband, chairman of the NYSE, sell stock in businesses that would be adversely affected by a global pandemic for millions of dollars. Senator loeffler then purchases stock in a company that creates software. Software that specializes in working with databases remotely (you know, work from home). Senator David Perdue purchases stock in DuPont, a company that makes personal protection equipment. Let’s not make this a partisan question, we all know Diane Feinstein’s dusty old ass was there too. She played her hand with the 1950’s generation card and said her husband makes all of the financial decisions in their household. The chances that the information she received in that meeting and her husband making moves on the exchange right after that meeting being connected are highly unlikely, I mean he probably doesn’t even let her speak at the dinner table.
Rand Paul’s story is one of failure, however. His wife’s gilead purchase didn’t lead to any notable financial gains. So he’s picked out a boogeyman for you to bully, just like he does. The loudest asshole in the room wants you to forget all about his wife’s purchase of gilead stock. Could it be that his wife made a purchase some would not call an ethical purchase?
So let’s say it’s not entirely wrong to cash in when you have the chance because it would be stupid not to but then adjust the original question to be more clearly able to see the type of people we are discussing here.
If you knew a global pandemic was coming before anyone else and you cashed in because of that and then told the citizens of the United States that covid wasn’t even an issue even though you were told in that meeting that this was going to be VERY BAD and then further agreed that it would be a good idea for all Americans to chug aquarium cleaner and throw on the tourniquet and shoot up some bleach, would you consider that to be ethical?
Cause that’s what these elected officials did to us. And for some crazy ass reason, a lot of people don’t seem bothered by that.
If you keep eating their turds, they’re just going to keep feeding them to you.
One last question. Will the truth actually set you free, or will it send you spiraling into madness when you finally realize that every one of these lying thieves has been hand feeding you turds and you sucked up every last peanut and corn kernel on your hands and knees while you begged for more?
Even though these big mouthed frauds have turned our democracy into one giant Super Bowl shit show, politics is not a team sport. For us, the rabble, it is quite literally life and death. If we continue to be hypnotized by joe Biden’s student debt relief plan, amazed at Donald trumps power to declassify top secret intelligence with his mind and grossly turned on by Steve bannon and Rudolph Giuliani’s obsession of hunter bidens dick pics, we are all in deep shit. The dictator, the oligarchs and the rabble. Sound familiar?
