It's one thing to take on the establishment. I get that. But every ideology has limits. Ideologues, otoh, have no limits

He is a far left conspiracy theorist who found a voice with the far right camp after the pandemic. I will bet that all Trump supporters on this board and elsewhere that are applauding this appointment would have been ridiculing this guy (rightly so) if he was still a Democrat. As for me I have been ridiculing his evidence-free views regardless of his party affiliation.

 

Hopefully someone like Dr. Vinay Prasad ( a sensible anti establishment doc) can knock some sense into him about evidence based medicine and such things.

Agree, anti-establishment is all good, not in  public health. Leave it to Drs and public health experts. Since the leftists and celebs started questioning in the 90s, everyone is an expert on health reading WebMD!! Remember this clip

Megyn, of course, can't tell shyte from apples, but in this case, she may be right.

 

I disagree with Dr. JB on a lot of things (esp the GBD that basically had no real plan on how to isolate the elderly and vulnerable), but he is a real scientist and scholar. Of course, the only reason he was appointed was because somehow his views fit with the "anti-establishment" narrative, but the difference is that he actually is an expert. Unlike ya-know-who. The NIH needs a big overhaul (stop legacy funding, fund disruptive rather than derivative research and support young scientists more). He might actually do some of this.

Go find another sucker': Trump's message to BRICS members, which includes India

Dec 01, 2024 09:49 AM IST
 

Over the past few years a few of BRICS members, excluding India and in particular Russia and China, are seeking an alternative to the US Dollar.

 

Donald Trump, the next president of the United States, said on Saturday that BRICS countries can ‘go find another sucker’ if they cannot commit that they will neither create a new currency of their own, nor back any other currency “to replace the mighty US Dollar”.

Formed in 2009, BRICS is an intergovernmental organisation comprising nine countries - Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Iran, Egypt, Ethiopia, and the United Arab Emirates - and was originally identified to highlight investment opportunities.

 

BRICS is the only major international group of which the United States is not a part. Over the past few years a few of its member countries, excluding India and in particular Russia and China, are seeking an alternative to the US Dollar or create own BRICS currency.

 

Warning BRICS countries against any move to replace the US dollar, President Elect sought a commitment from the nine-member group.

“The idea that the BRICS Countries are trying to move away from the Dollar while we stand by and watch is OVER,” the president-elect said in a post on microblogging platform X.

“We require a commitment from these Countries that they will neither create a new BRICS Currency, nor back any other Currency to replace the mighty U.S. Dollar or, they will face 100% Tariffs and should expect to say goodbye to selling into the wonderful U.S. Economy,” Trump warned.

“They can go find another 'sucker!' There is no chance that the BRICS will replace the US Dollar in International Trade, and any Country that tries should wave goodbye to America,” Trump wrote.
