With a sweep of the south and key victories in Minnesota and Massachusetts, the media narrative today (3/04) is all about how Joe Biden is the comeback kid, back from the dead, risen like a Phoenix from the ashes. That sort of thing.

It’s the kind of story the media loves. They love it so much it doesn’t matter whether it’s true, or whether the media was writing Biden off less than a week ago.

The surprise comeback, vindicated frontrunner narrative is going to be pushed so hard by the mainstream press and the Democrat establishment in the coming days, you’ll think Biden’s nomination is pretty much a done deal.

What the headlines and the narrative won’t tell you is what any casual survey of the Democrat primary map plainly shows: Super Tuesday didn’t solve the Democrat Party’s Bernie Sanders problem.

A win in California would be an electoral wipeout for Democrats in 2020. Is it possible?

The last time a Republican won the state was back in 1988 when Bush walloped Dukakis, but it was by a razor-thin margin. Given the Golden State’s deeply entrenched Democrat bastions, is it even possible that this state is in play?

I mean what could cause Democrats to cross the aisle here. What could state Democrats possibly due to create a pathway for a hated man like Trump to a run to flip the state? Oh, could it be their nonsensical freelance law—AB5—that has reaped havoc on the state?

Yep. The Democrat Party has received a face-full of buckshot over this bill. Here’s the story.

When I was a professor of pathology at the University of California San Diego, I was one of the first molecular virologists in the world to work on coronaviruses (the 1970s). I was the first to demonstrate the number of genes the virus contained.

Since then, I have kept up with the coronavirus field and its multiple clinical transfers into the human population (e.g., SARS, MERS), from different animal sources.

The current projections for its expansion in the US are only probable, due to continued insufficient worldwide data.  This advice applies to you if you live in or travel to an infected area, or if the expansion becomes sufficiently widespread throughout the US.

Here is what I have done and the precautions that I take and will take. These are the same precautions I currently use during our influenza seasons, except for the mask and gloves:

The Democrat leaders and candidates blasted President Trump’s response to the Coronavirus outbreak, just as they blast everything else that he does.

Note that the Dems’ criticism of Trump’s response to the virus is unaccompanied by any specific suggestions. They do suggest spending more money on the problem, though they don’t say how. Maybe they think they can curry favor with the virus by buying it free stuff.

Their demand for more money is not because they’ve talked to medical and other experts and done the math. They don’t even bother to say that they have. No, it’s because they want to be able to say down the road that the contagion grew into a deadly pandemic because Trump messed up.

For that posturing to work, of course, the virus has to grow into a deadly pandemic.  That’s what they want.

Former New York mayor and multibillionaire Democrat presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg, four years ago at Oxford, England, dismissed farming, ancient and modern.

He lectured that agriculture was little more than the rote labor of dropping seeds into the ground and watching corn sprout — easy, mindless, automatic.

“I could teach anybody,” Bloomberg pontificated, “even people in this room, no offense intended, to be a farmer.”

He contrasted such supposedly unintelligent labor of the past (and present) with the “skill set” of the current “information economy” that requires “how to think and analyze.” In this new economy, he said, “you have to have a lot more gray matter.”

Gray matter?  It’s him and all Dem elitists who need more of that.

Who could have imagined that the debate in Charleston on Tuesday (2/25) would be worse than the previous one, the one in Vegas during which Elizabeth Warren went after Bloomberg with a scythe, Bernie did his wild-eyed crazed thing, and Biden fell flat?

The most appalling aspect of the debate was the sheer childishness of it.

They all talked at once, raising and waving their hands to be called on like second-graders, shouting over one another as if they were guests on the Jerry Springer show.  It was pathetic.

Anyone and everyone watching had to ask themselves, "How on Earth are these seven people the presidential candidates of the Democrat party?"

Given Russia’s lack of a developed highway system, and its increasing difficulties with the use of rivers for transport (Ritmeurasia.org, October 22, 2019), Moscow not only relies more heavily on the country’s long-haul railway network but counts on it to allow Russia to play a key role in trade between China and Europe.

However, because of Moscow’s failure to invest in the maintenance and development of that network, Beijing is increasingly skeptical that Russia can be such a land route. Consequently, China is looking to send its goods either by sea or by routes that bypass the Russian Federation entirely.

So what might seem to be a domestic problem is rapidly becoming an international one for Moscow.  You would not believe how big a problem.

Canada is presently in the throes of social and political disintegration.

A left-leaning electorate has once again empowered a socialist government promoting all the lunatic ideological shibboleths of the day: global warming or “climate change,” radical feminism, indigenous sovereignty, expansionary government, environmental strangulation of energy production, and the presumed efficiency of totalitarian legislation.

Industry and manufacturing are abandoning the country in droves and heading south.

Canada is now reaping the whirlwind. The Red-Green Axis consisting of social justice warriors, hereditary band chiefs, renewable energy cronies, cultural Marxists, and their political and media enablers have effectively shut down the country.

The Chinese communist government increasingly poses an existential threat not just to its own 1.4 billion citizens but to the world at large.

China is currently in a dangerously chaotic state. And why not, when a premodern authoritarian society leaps wildly into the brave new world of high-tech science in a single generation?

The Chinese technological revolution is overseen by an Orwellian dictatorship.

Which is why, predictably, the Chinese Communist Party has not developed the social, political or cultural infrastructure to ensure that its sophisticated industrial and biological research does not go rogue and become destructive to itself and to the billions of people who are on the importing end of Chinese products and protocols.

Wednesday night's (2/19) Democrat debate in Nevada allowed for a sharp focus on the candidates' personalities.  It wasn't pretty.

They were the six unappealing dwarfs — Supercilious, Shrill, Angry, Confused, Smug...and that unpleasant nameless something that is Klobuchar.

This was Elizabeth Warren's debate, for she aggressively dominated the available airtime.  As the debate progressed, the other candidates fell silent when she spoke out of instinctive deference.  With her hoarse voice and scolding manner, she was every mean old lady that children learn to fear.
