President Trump Tells Robert Woodward That He Didn't Want to Panic Americans about COVID

According to Robert Woodward's new book Rage and the recordings he made of his conversations with Donald Trump, the President Trump knew all about COVID in February.

Gabuina will need to practice continence; this will be a long line. Mamuka Bakhtadze, Georgia's Prime Minister, harshly condemned  Gabunia's provocative language: "This is a war by provocateurs against their country, a dirty and disgusting game with t

My Samizdat Blog

Samizdat is Russian for "self-published." In the former USSR, people wrote and circulated unofficial literature because they couldn't get it published due to censorship. Xerox machines were closely guarded, so authors and readers duplicated articles and books by hand using carbon paper on typewriters and passed the samizdat along to trusted friends.  "Samizdat: I write it myself, edit it myself, censor it myself, publish it myself, distribute it myself, and spend time in prison for it myself." - Vladimir Bukovsky https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samizdat
