    Wrong.

    $3.5 billion is a grant. Free money. Don't have to payback.

    $1.5 billion is a low interest loan.

    Gov. Brown is impeding covid-19 testing and its not right!
    She's been sitting on test kits with to stiff of guidelines for testing, it's not an inventory issue but a policy issue. She needs to use the test kits and ramp up our lagging position as compared to Washington & CA.
    She also put the stops on tracing a month ago because she admitted they couldn't keep up the effort for lack of manpower which is something she should have been addressing and now its part of the gate criteria hat both Washington and CA. are using.

    Why can’t you say both are bad? Don’t you think it’s the media’s responsibility to get to the truth? Don’t you believe it’s irresponsible of them to get into a pissing match with Trump, instead of asking questions to the response team?

    it doesn’t have to be binary

    I’d like to see that. I haven’t seen the reports. I guess the Dems were lying then. Wouldn’t be the first time.

    The way it’s explained to me was the press was the mantle of truth. The group to bring that truth to the people. The politicians, as I explained above, always lie, will always spin. Remember: If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor?

    That's simply not true...I'm not going to go back and sift through every "linked reference" you've posted recently but I do recall a few of those links were disproved by others and so they did in fact, not "validate" your claim.

    You've dug quite a deep hole for yourself....again, this is how it appears from my end and from reading the replies, it seems there are others who see it the same way.


    Speaking of petards, has anyone seen of heard from @ABM ?

    From your link

    In connection with strings attached to the program, the airline's parent company also expects to issue warrants to purchase about 4.6 million shares of common stock to the federal government.

    also says there is strings attached to the grant. What strings?

    Yes, your original post was wrong. I'm glad I cleared it up for you.

    @SlyPokerDog from your link, it shows the government owning stock until it was paid back. Also states the grant only applies to those still on the payroll. So if it isn’t used for payroll, it turns into a loan.

    Later Tuesday, Southwest Airlines Co.US:LUV said it anticipated getting $2.3 billion in direct payroll support and a nearly $1 billion unsecured term loan that’s expected to include 2.6 million warrants issued to the Treasury Department.
