People need to start to understand what happens when you fire the inspectors.
@George Takei :verified: 🏳️‍🌈🖖🏽 People need to understand what happens if you fire a grossly incompetent, corrupted government. And they better start understanding that soon...
@hans People also need to understand, what happens, when you elect highly incompetent people...
@Petri Salmela They should indeed.

But instead they elected him a second time... 🤦
@hans "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."
@georgetakei It’s almost like they’re deliberately trying to kill people, like during the time when there were no government inspectors and you couldn’t trust the meat you ate and the medicines you took. (As in Upton Sinclair’s “The Jungle”).
Where’s the money going instead? My federal taxes haven’t gone down.
Oh yeah….billions for more missiles…again, to kill other people.

@bouriquet @georgetakei

It's a Dutch ship in the south Atlantic, which hasn't visited and does not plan to visit any US ports, so I'm not sure what your health minister has to do with this.

@guenther @bouriquet @georgetakei so don’t do anything until there’s an outbreak on a US flagged cruise ship? Uuh, ok.

By that time it will be too late.

Prevention is always better than cure.

@peterbrown @guenther @georgetakei More likely it isn’t contracted onboard the ship but on land where passengers explore different islands and stops:

“Officials believe a husband and wife, Dutch nationals, were infected while they were off the cruise ship, engaging in wildlife expeditions. Others with suspected infections may have come in contact with the virus on islands as well, Van Kerkhove said during the briefing.”

@georgetakei in general, of course agree it's a stupid thing to do. Now in this case, being a Dutch ship probably not US jurisdiction

@georgetakei

Eugenics, or maybe just Dr Mengele wannabe.

We actually don't know what he does outside the Oval Office

I'm pretty sure Washington is full of dungeons.

@georgetakei yeah but come on its been absolutely AGES since any virus on a cruise ship killed any body.....

I hate now so badly I can feel my soul leaving my body just to get away.

@georgetakei

republicans are murderers

that's it

they want as many people hurt or deceased as possible in as many ways as possible

murderers

@georgetakei
There’s the disease right there.

@georgetakei

Tim Mellon bought public office for RFK Jr and Trump to weaponize outbreaks of disease.

Trump billionaires are very keen on mass mortality events.

Number of billionaires globally could reach 4,000 in next five years

There are now 3,110 billionaires but analysis shows ‘deep structural acceleration’ in wealth creation around world

The Guardian

@georgetakei

"At least four U.S. states are monitoring people who have returned home from the MV Hondius. One Virginia traveler who was on the ship "is currently in good health, not showing any signs of infection, and is under public health monitoring," the Virginia Department of Health told Newsweek.
Residents in three other states—Georgia, California and Arizona—who were aboard the ship are also being monitored after returning home, The New York Times reported on Wednesday. None has shown signs of illness, officials said."

@georgetakei still hoping for nature to come up with a billionaire virus.

C‘mon you are doing this for billions of years. You are the expert in this field and there is no one else. I know, you will make it! 👊🏼

@georgetakei making America hellish again
@georgetakei They should send RFK to that ship to investigate personally..
@WooShell @georgetakei "Secretary of Health" telling podcast listeners how he is used to snorting cocaine off toilet seats, so germs are nothing to be scared of.
