I think it’s gonna fairly obvious if they misappropriated funds based on approvals ...it was directed as first come for serve...this will be an easy audit to see if their is any bases for the suit.

I didn’t know about chase...Wells Fargo was having issues 3 weeks ago, no surprise there.[/quote]

You could say that again!

Edit: And of course this pops up on a new page. Loses its luster from previous page. Not that it had much to begin with.

State report: Russian, Chinese and Iranian disinformation narratives echo one another

China, Iran and Russia are using the coronavirus crisis to launch a propaganda and disinformation onslaught against the United States, the State Department warns in a new report.

The three governments are pushing a host of matching messages: that the novel coronavirus is an American bioweapon, that the U.S. is scoring political points off the crisis, that the virus didn’t come from China, that U.S. troops spread it, that America’s sanctions are killing Iranians, that China’s response was great while the U.S.’ was negligent, that all three governments are managing the crisis well, and that the U.S. economy can't bear the toll of the virus.

It’s pretty sickening but not surprising.

Those who doubted in the past during crisis get bitch slapped to the nth degree 100% of the time.

Russia and Iran are getting fucked up the ass with the oil... always good to see

But saying that the U.S. Economy can't bear the toll of the virus, is that really false news? Things are going to shit here at an alarming rate and will only get worse in the coming months.

Just reading that Harvard got $9M from the small business stimulus... wtf is going on here?? Why are publicly traded companies and a fucking university getting money from this?? Meanwhile the public is getting $1200 which barely covers rent or a mortgage for most people. Where the hell is our bailout??

That seems weird. Do you happen to have the article to link? I only ask because it could be that Harvard is the parent corporation of a small business - it's common for universities to own little research companies or other little business ventures that grew from recent innovation. It could be that small business picked up the $9M and it's being reported as Harvard receiving as the parent corporation.

Still, your point stands, I don't think that's what we the public have in mind when we think of small business relief. We think of the pizza shop on the corner.

All due respect to you, but you are wrong about it being BS. I'm not having a sky is falling attitude on that statement, i am looking at the numbers. The numbers simply do not lie.

23 million people unemployed in two months. That's 11.5 million people losing their jobs a month. Do the math and figure out how that number climbs every month that we stay shut down. Our economy is not handling anything well when you have that many people unemployed and those numbers just keep going up.

I would be willing to venture an educated guess many of those companies on that list are suffering no ill effects from the Corona-virus or it has little impact on them.

It's a win/win, Trump gets to claim he's trying to help Americans but it's the banks fault for prioritizing those customers.
