The headline is factually incorrect and I suspect intentionally inflammatory.

A White House official has allegedly said this, and that official is an economist working on economic policies rather than military or intelligence.

It’s still scary and suggesting anything this extreme around Trump is a horrible idea because he is so impulsive.

But, we need to be careful not to misconstrue or misrepresent things as doing so could give ammo to the Trump administration

Well this is certainly an interesting development. Assuming Trump didn’t give the green light (and I doubt he did, but who knows), Adams may be digging himself into a deep, deep hole. Happy to loan him a shovel btw. Keep working it.

Great point, and H5N1 can kill cats within like 24 hours (not sure if that’s exposure or first symptoms). So, you’re not paying close attention to your cat for even just a matter of hours, it dies, you don’t know why, and just bury it.

Raw catfood has infected some cats as well.

Well, ya know, it’s primarily a respiratory disease among humans. You literally aren’t likely to catch if if your head is buried in sand. And once you suffocate or whatever, you won’t have to worry about the flu.

Meanwhile, in Michigan, there’s a case of two exclusively indoor cats catching it. One prominent theory is that the humans in the household passed it to them.

And if they gut medicaid, that’ll push pestilence even further and contribute to death as well. The situation in Ukraine contributes to war.

I’ve never bought into the apocalypse stuff but it’s interesting how quickly and easily things line up.
