Members of the House of Representatives have asked the State Department for detailed information on how Israel uses weapons procured from the US, including whether they are used for actions, such as demolishing Palestinians' homes, which violate the conditions US law places on those weapons sales.

Netanyahu shut down Israel's parliament and imposed massive surveillance by decree. Israelis protested and were arrested in the name of the Covid-19 emergency.

As one protester said, officials that trample human rights and democracy is more dangerous than Covid-19. And that applies even more strongly to greedy nihilists such as the bully.

If Israel wants to use phone location data to check who might have passed Covid-19 to whom, it should set up a firm institutional structure to ensure that data obtained for this purpose cannot be used for any other purposes.

Kaiser Permanente denied a patient hydroxychloroquine which she needed to treat lupus, saying it was reserving the drug for future sufferers of Covid-19. There is no scientific evidence that hydroxychloroquine is good for treating Covid-19, only speculations boosted by the bullshitter.

Adding insult to injury, the company thanked her for the "sacrifice" it was forcing on her.

I have no information on whether it is true that she can safely go without it for a month. I hope it is true.

New Zealand has found a giant aquifer of fresh water under the ocean.

To ensure it remains available for emergencies, it had better regulate the use of that water to avoid permitting extra growth that would require drawing water from it all the time.

Today I received a postcard saying, on the front, "President Trump's Coronavirus Guidelines for America." I laughed. Surely nobody but his fanatical supporters would trust advice because it carries his name.

It is also a mistake to reject advice because it carries his name. Someone checked, and the advice on that postcard is basically the same advice you'd get from WHO. It has no resemblance to the bullshitter's own views.

The thing to do with advice published under the bullshitter's name is not even look at it. That way you won't be in danger of being influenced by it in any manner. There are plenty of better places to get advice from.

A friend suggested that putting his name on advice is electioneering.
