Wahlen in Guyana: Einnahmenverwalter gesucht

Thüringen • Die Wahl des Ministerpräsidenten ist als Tagesordnungspunkt 1 der regulären Plenarsitzung am Mittwoch, ab 14 Uhr, festgelegt. Als Kandidaten vorgeschlagen sind bisher (von den Fraktionen DIE LINKE, SPD und GRÜNE) Bodo Ramelow und (von der AfD-Fraktion) Björn Höcke.
Wenn ich das richtig verstehe, sieht §47 der Geschäftsordnung des Thüringer Landtages für die Wahl des Ministerpräsidenten die Anwesenheit ALLER Abgeordneten nicht zwingend vor. Wieso steht jetzt wegen EINES #Corona-VERDACHTSFALLS die morgige Wahl auf der Kippe?

“Worth the Price?” New Film Shows How Biden Played Leading Role in Push for U.S. to Invade Iraq
(18.02.2020)
As Biden hopes for a comeback, a new short documentary sheds light on his extensive role in the Iraq War — an issue that has been raised repeatedly on the campaign trail. Biden has apologized for supporting the war, but the new film, directed by the Center for Economic and Policy Research’s Mark Weisbrot, exposes Biden’s central role in pushing for an Iraq invasion. It’s called “Worth the Price? Joe Biden and the Launch of the Iraq War.” The documentary is narrated by Danny Glover.
Top Israeli Military Brass to Be Indicted in Submarine Affair
(28.02.2020)
Prosecutors said in December they intended to file an indictment in the case against the key suspects in the affair: former naval chief Eliezer Merom; Netanyahu’s attorney and confidant David Shimron; and Ganor.
The suspicions published in December said Ganor and Bar-Yosef, who got to know each other during their military service, met in 2009 when Bar-Yosef proposed they cooperate to advance Ganor’s being named as ThyssenKrupp’s agent in Israel, because he “wanted to get some monetary value out of it.”

Bernie Sanders faces pivotal clash as Democratic establishment joins forces against him
Bernie Sanders has spent his entire campaign saying this day would come.
Now, it‘s here.
Operation Bernie Block Is in Full Effect
There’s a whiff of desperation to this move. It’s not hard to see why: If Sanders, who leads in the delegate count, performs well in delegate-rich states such as Texas and California, he might be unstoppable on his way to winning the nomination at the convention this summer.
That’s an unacceptable outcome to a powerful bloc of the Democratic Party. It’s why Buttigieg and Klobuchar have moved so quickly to endorse Biden. It’s why Sanders opponents started Super PAC called the Big Tent Project to run advertisements criticizing Sanders as a radical who would lose to Trump.
Dems Converge Around Dementia-Addled Warmonger Ahead Of Super Tuesday
Sanders has not been pulling in anywhere near the numbers he’d need to pull to prevent a contested convention. This means that even if he gets more votes than any of his primary opponents, party leaders can still overrule those votes and appoint Biden as their nominee to run against Trump. Establishment spinmeisters as well as all Sanders’ primary opponents have been working to normalize this ahead of time.
The only problem? Biden’s brain is turning into sauerkraut.
Joe Biden botches Declaration of Independence quote
“We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women are created, by the, you know, you know the thing,” Biden said.
The actual line is: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
Later in the speech, Biden mistook “Super Tuesday” for “Super Thursday.”
