#1 Uh, I think I might have mangled a closing bracket for a span statement right after "this link might work."

#3 Tag close fixed.

I replaced the cut-off headline with the original NYT headline. If you originally had written something else more clever, please post it in a comment below, and I’ll fix that, too. From my moderator notes, here is Fred’s explanation about that:

A quote (") in an article's headline will chop the text there. If a headline begins with a quote, no headline. Quotes are used in the code, which tries to execute what follows.

Workarounds: Use single quotes or two single quotes to make a double ('').

Other workarounds: Backslash quote (\ ". without the space.)

& lquo; and & rquo; (no spaces)

< q> and < /q> (no spaces)

So now you (and whoever else is reading this comment thread) understand why that happened and what to do, no doubt considerably better than I do. Thank you, Fred, for explaining that to me back in 2019! :-)

#4
The Covid-19 virus release, cost the US Economy an estimated $16 trillion.

Given, the CCP only holds about $1 Trillion of the USA Debt. Cancel that debt as part payment. Then except Hong Kong and a few other outlaying areas to cover the rest of the debt.

#11 NYT trying to salvage some credibility. Don't buy it. The only thing they are sorry about is getting caught.

#13 Reality is moving at Trump speed. The NYT needs to get its readers mostly caught up so they don’t look ignorant at cocktail party discussions about the new investigations.

#14 Reality is moving at Trump speed.

It's that OODA Loop thingie. Trump is generating events faster than the opposition can react to them. The Usual Suspects are busy whinging on CNN while Trump is already two outrages ahead of them.

#15 You were willingly misled.
I, however, assumed you were full of $hit as usual.
The only ones misinformed were those that trusted you.

#18 This work started in Ralph Baric's lab in North Carolina in 2015, with input from SHI Sheng-li (Wuhan) and was continued in Wuhan (with funding through Daszak) after gain-of-function work was shut down (temporarily) in the US.
