HEY, AMERICA – STOP WORRYING!!!

stop-worrying-chartGood news! If you are under 65, in reasonably good health and do not have a vitamin D deficiency, you have only a tiny chance of dying from COVID-19.

And if you are younger than 34, your chances of dying from the virus are so small as to be almost statistically undetectable.

On the other hand, if you are 85 or older, are in a nursing home, have serious health problems and a vitamin D deficiency, you may be in real danger if you are exposed to the virus — but only a tiny portion of the population is in such a condition.

So, will we all please stop worrying now?

THE MASK POLICE OF THE LEFT

mask-policeThere have been several great columns on the debate over mask-wearing in public.  Scott McKay at American Spectator explains why the mask is essentially useless:  The mask is not an adequate defense against the COVID-19 virus, gang.

The virus checks in at somewhere between 0.06 and 0.14 microns, meaning it’s too small for any commercially available mask to effectively filter it out. The pores on an N95 mask, which are the best masks you’re reasonably going to find, are 0.3 microns.

The vast, vast majority of you are not going to have N95 masks but rather cloth masks, which perform far less well.

Over at Powerline, John Hinderaker  writes about how “wearing face masks has become a cultural divide….On the left, mask wearing has become a basic marker of good citizenship, no matter how silly it may be…”

TRUMP’S TRAP FOR TWITTER

Donald Trump ate Jack Dorsey’s lunch today

Even Trump-supporters have wondered about Trump's tweets implying that MSNBC's Joe Scarborough had something to do with a young intern's death in his office when he was still a Florida congressman.

It's true that Scarborough and his co-host and wife Mika Brzezinksi have spent three years accusing Trump of treasonous collusion with the Russians, but Trump's venom still seemed strange.

I, however, don't think it was strange at all.  Trump is one of the most calculating, rational people ever to occupy the White House.

So Trump set a trap.  On Tuesday (5/26), the Twitter mouse took the bait.

THE DETRITUS OF OBAMA

“One is not struck by the truth until prompted quite accidentally by some external event.” — Kazuo Ishiguro, The Remains of the Day
“One is not struck by the truth until prompted quite accidentally by some external event.” — Kazuo Ishiguro, The Remains of the Day

Each day that the Obama administration fades into the past, its wrongdoings manage to wander back into the present.

After years of suppression, all sorts of strange events keep popping up to remind us of what little is left of the Obama. The list is so overwhelming and bizarre that it ensures that anything at any time can now appear.

And the result keeps reminding Americans of how corrupt were the years between 2009 and 2017 and how untruthful was the coverage of such institutionalized wrongdoing. Let us recount all the detritus of the failed Obama Presidency.

HALF-FULL REPORT 05/22/20

We’re Not Gonna Take It Anymore is now America’s Response to the Fascist Lockdowns:

 

Epic, isn’t it?  We’re right, we’re free, we’ll fight, you’ll see!  America is and will.  Originally composed in 1984 by Twisted Sister, it’s uncannily prescient today.

How, then, is Not Taking It Anymore being implemented?  There are several ways.  One of them involves putting Fascicrat Governors in jail.

HOW TO SEND THE LOCKDOWN GOVERNORS TO JAIL

nursing-home-have-no-right And bankrupt them as well.

You know their names.  Cuomo, Newsom, Whitmer, Inslee, Pritzker, Murphy, Northam, Wolf.  You know how their psycho lockdowns have ruined countless lives and businesses.

What you may not know is that one particular executive order of theirs has caused the death of hundreds, even thousands in their state – and for each one they can be criminally liable and sued personally.

We’ll start with New York’s Gov. Cuomo.

IT NEEDS TO END NOW

NY Post cover today, May 21, 2020

Sometimes, a good rant is all a writer can offer. Bear with me.

Last Friday morning (5/15), some 3,500 New Yorkers lined up at a Catholic church in Queens to receive free food hours before it even opened, ­according to the New York Police Department. Catholic Charities has reported a 200 percent increase in demand over the past month and a half.

By prolonging the coronavirus shutdown long after its core mission was accomplished, Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio have plunged tens of thousands of New Yorkers into poverty.

It needs to end. Now.

FRAUDULENT MODELS – FATAL CONSEQUENCES

fraud-covid-modelsIt was the model that shocked the world.

In mid-March, British researchers led by epidemiologist Neil Ferguson issued an alarming study that predicted 2.2 million Americans would die of COVID-19 by August without immediate, draconian measures to halt its spread.

As the virus rampaged across the country, more than 80 percent of Americans would be infected, the experts warned, causing massive shortages of hospital beds and intensive care units. Death and misery would be the new norm for months to come.

Ferguson’s computer model is responsible for the entire lockdown pandemic hysteria ever since.  Now it’s being rightly condemned as “the most devastating software mistake of all time, in terms of economic costs and lives lost.”

THE DEMOCRATS’ TWIN ALBATROSSES OF PELOSI AND BIDEN

pelosi-biden-twin-albatrossesOne has to wonder, do those on the left, including the media, actually think Joe Biden is a viable candidate for president?

Do they not realize that Nancy Pelosi is as senile as Joe?  Like Joe, she often slurs her words, suffers brain freezes mid-sentence, and spews gibberish.  The President was simply saying yesterday (5/19) what everyone can see, that “Pelosi is a sick woman. She’s got a lot of problems, a lot of mental problems.”

Biden is a lifelong corruptocrat, a known plagiarist, a pathological liar, and a truly mean and evil man.  You can catch a glimpse of just how mean in the film about Clarence Thomas; it was Biden who grilled him mercilessly during the hearings over Anita Hill's phony allegations.

Biden is a racist as well.  Pelosi is a lifelong power-mad lunatic.  They are the twin albatrosses around the neck of the Democrat Party.

THE ART OF GOVERNMENT CRIMINALITY

federal-bureau-of-criminality
Now the Federal Bureau of Criminality?

In the entire 2016–19 efforts to derail the Trump campaign, transition, and presidency, Hillary Clinton, Christopher Steele, and the FBI, Department of Justice, CIA, and other government bureaus have consistently sought to distort reality.

Some of our best and brightest have destroyed evidence, altered documents, lied, leaked, and pled amnesia when questioned about their reprehensible conduct. At each stage, they were aided and abetted by a compliant media.

The dissimulation over the past four years has fallen into four rough categories. Here are a few examples of each.

TIME TO PILLAGE PELOSI’S VILLAGE

pillage-pelosi

It’s been a remarkably dumb week so far even for 2020. One of the highlights was watching the media hacks looking at each other and pretending they have absolutely no idea what Donald Trump is talking about when he repeatedly tweets “#OBAMAGATE.”

Remember, these are the same geniuses who are always wrong yet expect us to pay attention to their special insights into current events. Sheesh. On the upside, it’s becoming clear that we have a good shot at sending Nancy Pelosi back to Scat Francisco.

Plus, I want to intro you to an Army guy who is trying to take a swing seat away from Nancy’s bestest purple district buddy!

WILL A FACE MASK PROTECT YOU?

Hard to drink coffee and keep your mask on
Hard to drink coffee and keep your mask on

Should you wear a face mask? Medical authorities have sent confusing messages.

Both the U.S. surgeon general and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention exhorted Americans not to wear masks in January and February, then reversed themselves in April. Mask wearing is now mandatory in many workplaces and public spaces, but how much good does it do?

The science is inconclusive, but probably not much. Here’s why.

HALF-FULL REPORT 05/15/20

obamagate-swampSorry to have to keep doing this to your rib gage, ladies & gents, but we’re still in OMAS City this week.

We started off the week with Hyperventilation Monday (5/11).

On Tuesday (5/12), we learned John Durham who leads the DOJ criminal investigation of Obama Admin crimes has a new nickname – “Full Throttle – per Fox News: Durham Moving ‘Full-Throttle’ on Russia Probe Review, Top Federal Prosecutors Involved.

On Wednesday (5/13), Chuck Grassley, Chair of Senate Judiciary, released the full list – declassified by DNI Grenell – of 40 Obama officials ordering the “unmasking” of President-elect Trump’s National Security Advisor-designate LtGen Michael Flynn, between Nov 30, 2016 and Jan 12, 2017.

It keeps going… let’s have some fun.  And learn one of the key things that makes liberals/lefties/Dems what they are.
