Big and bold, optimistic and compassionate. President Trump’s Oval Office address last night (3/11) was exactly what America needed to hear.  This is what it looks like when a president rises up to meet a crisis head-on.

With fear and panic spreading across the land and threatening to take down the economy, Trump is facing the greatest test of his presidency. Although battle-hardened by brutal fights with Democrats, the biased media and foreign adversaries, he is presented with problems of a different magnitude with the coronavirus.

It is a global menace that has declared war on America. Thankfully, the President left no doubt that he is all in on the battle against this deadly scourge. Now effectively a wartime president, Trump’s repeated assurances of victory were music to the ears of a rattled nation.

Why, when Joe Biden's mental decline is so obvious, are so many former Obamaphiles pledging their spurious support for the man?  Something's up.

It is beyond clear that Biden is not up to the job. This fact cannot escape the notice of Susan Rice, James Comey, John Brennan, et al., all those conspirators who tried so treasonously hard to destroy Donald Trump.

They surely know better than most that Biden is a dead man walking.  So why the all-out campaign to support his candidacy?  Hmmm.

They must have a plan.

Nations are closing borders, stocks are plummeting and a New York Times headline reads: “The Coronavirus Has Put the World’s Economy in Survival Mode.”

Both political parties have realized the crisis could severely impact the November elections — House, Senate, Presidency.

And sacré bleu, they’ve even shuttered the Louvre!

Some of these reactions are understand­able, but much of it pure hysteria. Meanwhile, the spread of the virus continues to slow.  Odds are very high it will be gone by the end of next month.  Here’s why.

If you listened to Chinese state-run media, you'd think President Trump went to Wuhan, China and released vials of COVID-19 on groups of unsuspecting men, women and children.

Beijing has been bending over backward in a massive global propaganda effort to convince the world that the United States is the real culprit behind the quickly spreading virus that's already claimed more than 4,946 lives (3,169 in China, 1,016 in Italy, 429 in Iran, and 332 in the rest of the world).

It's a high-stakes strategy for the Asian nation fighting to keep its superpower status amid a national lockdown and palpable anger that Wuhan, China, the epicenter of the Wuhan Virus, at first covered it up, triggering a worldwide health and economic crisis.

Not for the first time, let’s wonder how much Vladimir Putin and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (widely known as MBS) really know what they’re doing.

Oil has crashed to $32 a barrel thanks to a sudden feud between Russia and Saudi Arabia, which comes amid the Covid-19 shock to the global economy. The upshot could bankrupt a lot of U.S. shale companies, if that’s either man’s thinking.

But the U.S. may be the world’s biggest producer but oil is a tiny share of its economy. What America loses in terms of oil-industry wages and profits it gains in lower gas prices for consumers and energy costs for downstream industries.

The strongmen’s desperation is understandable but nothing else about their feud is: Saudi Arabia and Russia have zilch to offer the world except oil and gas.

President Trump has promised to make the media and Democrats rue the fact that Joe Biden’s corruption in Ukraine has been placed off limits.

The president phoned in to Sean Hannity’s Fox News program last night (3/04), just 24 hours after Biden’s return from the dead. While much can still happen to once again alter everyone’s expectations, the former vice president is now seen as the clear frontrunner to win the 2020 Democrat presidential nomination.

Biden’s Burisma-gate stinks to high heaven, and Trump knows it. He also knows the media and the Democrat establishment have so far made the topic verboten during the primary process and that this is an opportunity for him.

You don’t need to watch the whole 40-minute POTUS-Hannity interview, just for two minutes at 5:55, when Hannity asks him about the Biden-Burisma corruption issue and how the media and all of Biden’s Dem opponents pretend it doesn’t exist.  The transcript of the President remarks follows.

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.
