We are all in this together.

We must put politics aside, stop the partisanship, and unify together as one nation and one family.

If you go back and look at the swine flu, you'll see how many people died and how actually nothing was done for such a long

period of time as people were dying all over the place. We're doing it the opposite. We're very much ahead of everything.

Dr. Redfield, you don't need to do any work to operationalize. You need to make a commitment to the American people so they come in to get tested.

You can operationalize the payment structure tomorrow. I think you're an excellent question. So my

Hey, everybody. Welcome to the Muck Wreck podcast. We have a bit of an emergency episode, I suppose, in the midst of the coronavirus outbreak. And I hope you guys are all staying safe. I'm Nick Houselman. And joining me alongside is my co-host, Jared D.Aid Sexton. Jared, how are you doing today?

that has happened there are clear-cut mistakes that have been made not just by Donald Trump as president and

there are many of them but by one person after another and one system after

another and one business after another that has created this environment that

we're now in that could you know topp all societies we know it but I also

want to put it out there and this is one of the reasons I thought is really

important we do an emergency pod today is because I don't think most people understand the ramifications, not just of like the virus that we're dealing with, but the political and power moves that could happen from it.

We have Donald Trump, who is a terminally insecure narcissist and authoritarian.

And what they do in these situations is they fail and they make the situations worse.

And then they scapegoat anyone that they possibly can to hide their mistakes.

And then they inevitably seize power.
