DEMS hold America hostage by blocking small business funding.

FOX News (right-click on link and open in new window): Dems block McConnell bid to swiftly approve $250B more for small business fund.

A $250 billion urgent request to shore up a depleting small business fund failed to pass the Senate Thursday after Democrats objected to the measure pushed by the White House and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

With lawmakers home and social distancing, McConnell sought to pass the cash infusion swiftly Thursday by unanimous consent with a skeleton group of senators, but Democrats blocked the effort because they want add-ons to help businesses in disadvantaged communities and an additional $250 billion in funds for other priorities.
[.]
The extra funding is being sought amid concerns that the original $350 billion program to help businesses stay afloat during the coronavirus pandemic could run dry in the near future in the face of an enormous demand.
[.]
McConnell pleaded with Democrats to pass a measure that would change the funding for the program from $350 billion to $600 billion total in a "clean" emergency measure.

"My colleagues must not treat working Americans as political hostages. This does not have to be, nor should it be, contentious." McConnell said, adding that lawmakers can pass other COVID-19 legislation in the future.

"Please do not block emergency aid you do not even oppose, just because you want something more," McConnell implored.
[.]
But Democrats say they’ve got a better plan[.]
[.]
McConnell accused Democrats of trying to hold paychecks "hostage" and blasted them for trying to push programs that have "zero" chance of passing the House and Senate.

 The actual viral threat.

Democrats have never had "a plan" for anything (other than their own self-enrichment and failed policies), let alone a "better plan."

Republicans are far from perfect - not by a long shot. But I do give them credit for understanding that politics must be set aside in these times in order to successfully preserve the stability of our country.

Cluck Schumer is doing the work in the Senate that Nancy Pelosi tells him to do. She says "jump" and Schumer says, "how high?" Schumer is Pelosi's puppet. Both are evil, America-hating Elitists who don't give a whit about providing assistance to the suffering, hard-working Americans and small businesses.

Not every business owner is a Wealthy Selfish Greedy Republican. There are many Liberals who own businesses. They are suffering economic hardships just like everyone else.

So I ask you, Liberal business owners - are you happy with your Democrat "leadership"? Your businesses are atrophying. Some will never reopen. Your house is burning and the DEMS are nitpicking which water source should be used to put out the flames. Are you happy about that?

Every single DEM needs to be booted out of office at the local, state and federal level this election. Voters need to make DEMS a muted minority party who have zero political power and influence.

"Don't Be Cruel" from Lap of Luxury by Cheap Trick.

Kaiser Wilhelm de Blasio heckled at Brox hospital.

NY Post: De Blasio heckled at Bronx hospital by bystanders demanding tests, treatment.

Three livid bystanders heckled Mayor Bill de Blasio — demanding coronavirus tests and better healthcare — as he tried to speak to medical personnel outside Lincoln Hospital in The Bronx Wednesday.

“Yo, de Blasio; I need a test, de Blasio!,” shouted a young man from behind a fence outside Lincoln Hospital, about 40 feet from where the mayor was thanking members of the US Air Force, who were deployed to the public hospital to help treat coronavirus patients.

“I need a test brother. Some people right here need a test. Where they at? Seriously I see you addressing these people what about these homeless right here,” the man yelled, pointing to a crowd outside the hospital.

“All these people right here are sick. Ain’t nobody addressing them,” he screamed.
[.]
After several minutes, members of the mayor’s NYPD security detail escorted two of the hecklers inside the hospital, where De Blasio later met with the pair for half an hour.

“They had a very productive conversation where they discussed ideas about how to better involve the community and educate people on life-saving practices like social distancing,” City Hall press secretary Freddi Goldstein told The Post afterward.

"They had a very productive conversation..."  Yeaeeeaaaaaaah - in other words, The Kaiser either sat in silence listening to them most patronizingly or, more likely, he told the protestors what they wanted to hear. They'll never hear from him again.

Ahhhhh - it's always fun when Liberals get heckled!

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot gets a haircut!

Brietbart: Chicago Mayor Blasted for Getting Haircut After Telling Chicagoans to Shut Down Shops.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot took guff Monday for getting a haircut only a week after scolding the Windy City for not shutting down “non-essential” businesses, including barbers and beauty salons.

The celebrated first openly gay mayor was pressed by the Chicago media over the haircut she got over the weekend. But Lightfoot insisted that since she is the “face of the city,” she deserves to be excused from the governor’s orders to shut down non-essential businesses as a measure to prevent the transmission of the coronavirus.

The vain mayor told the media:

    "I’m the public face of this city. I’m on national media and I’m out in the public eye.
    "I’m a person who, I take my personal hygiene very seriously. As I said, I felt like I needed to have a haircut. I’m not able to do that myself, so I got a haircut. You want to talk more about that?"
[.]
But the mayor is not exactly practicing what she has been preaching, because she has several times scolded those Chicagoans who have been seen out in public “unnecessarily.”

Last week, Lightfoot aimed at Chicagoans, who insisted on walking, biking, and jogging on the city’s famed lakefront.

“Congregating on our lakefront, to be blunt, is going to create a risk that is unacceptable and could lead to death. That is why we are taking these actions and going back and saying again: dear god, stay home, save lives,” she said after a city employee reportedly died from the virus.

Indeed, after shutting down Chicago’s lakefront, Lightfoot sent out squadrons of Chicago Police officers to stand sentry to prevent people from using the paths, sidewalks, and lakefront facilities.

Lightfoot even scolded the media for simply talking about her haircut fiasco.

It's called Liberal Privilege. It's a Perk!

Protestor William Talen arrested for criminal trespassing and disorderly conduct in NYC Central Park's Samaritan’s Purse.

William Talen, charlatan.

NBC News: Protester arrested at N.Y.C. COVID-19 field hospital run by Samaritan's Purse.

A protester donning a pink suit and bandana mask was arrested Sunday afternoon at a COVID-19 field hospital in New York City's Central Park that is being run by an evangelical group whose leader has a long history of anti-LGBTQ beliefs.

“They have no business being in New York City,” the protester, William Talen, 69, shouted as six New York City Police Department officers, one of whom appeared to be carrying Talen’s rainbow flag, removed him from the park. “They are the virus.”

The 68-bed field hospital is run by Samaritan’s Purse, an evangelical Christian humanitarian organization run by Franklin Graham, son of the late Rev. Billy Graham.
[.]
Samaritan’s Purse is working with the Mount Sinai Health System, a New York City hospital network, to address the overflow of patients due to the coronavirus pandemic. In a statement emailed to NBC News on Monday, a Mount Sinai spokesperson said all staff within its hospital system, including the Samaritan’s Purse field hospital, “will adhere” to Mount Sinai’s “principles and guidelines when it comes to not discriminating against patients or staff.”

He has a long record of being disruptive and a public nuisance. Here's just one example.

Talen...simply another attention-seeking clown and member of the Loud Crowd, like Brad Hoylman, claiming to embrace tolerance, acceptance, diversity and kindness yet personally devoid of these values and qualities.

Do farts spread the Coronavirus?

Global Times: Do farts spread novel coronavirus? A Beijing district CDC answers.

Do farts spread the COVID-19 virus? Pants work just fine to cut off novel coronavirus transmission in farts, a Beijing district disease control center announced on Sunday.

In a lengthy and seemingly humorous yet serious article on its WeChat account, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) of Tongzhou district in Beijing clarified that farts, normally, do not constitute another transmission route of COVID-19, unless someone takes a good and rather close sniff of gas from a pantless patient.
[.]
The findings made some worry that the virus is too "toxic" that farts could be a new transmission route.   

Some anxious individuals also called for mass production of N95 facial mask-like protection for their bottoms.

The Tongzhou district CDC said it had clearly done their homework before writing the article, and they cited a fart experiment carried out by Karl Kruszelnicki and Luke Tennent a couple of years ago. Their findings were published on discovermagazine.com with the conclusion that pants can effectively screen out germs.

That is to say, as long as everyone is wearing their pants, there is no need to be worried that passing gas would cause a micro biological contamination risk.

Someone needs to ask Dr. Fauci about Covid-19 being spread by farts. Do we need ass-masks or do we wear pants over our head?

Sweden: Land of Gang Violence.

Huh...must be all those vicious, angry and violent Jews and Christians who don't like the Swedes.

Remember when President Donald Trump said, in 2017, "look what's happening in Sweden." And Sweden and American Liberals said, "What?" and laughed at Trump?

It turns out President Trump was, and is, correct. Many of us already knew what the president said was accurate. The media decided reporting on this was - um - disrespectful to "some people" and avoided covering stories like this.

Gatestone Institute: "F***ing Swede."

In Gothenburg, a criminal gang of youths forced their victim to kiss the gang leader's feet, while they filmed him. After that, they stamped on his face until he passed out. — Expressen, October 1, 2019.

"It is a way to show your power. They want to dominate places. They do that by putting fear in other youths." — Thomas Petterson, analyst for the Gothenburg police, Expressen, August 31, 2019.
[.]
"Previously, gang rapes were virtually unknown in Sweden. But since the 1980s, they have steadily increased. Since 1995, they have quadrupled. In 1999, 35 gang rapes were recorded in Stockholm alone. Today, the media reports every week or every two weeks on such violent crimes." — Ingrid Björkman, Jan Elfverson, Jonathan Friedman and Åke Wedin, in the book, Exit Folkhemssverige.
[.]
The "humiliation robberies" have recently caused much consternation in Sweden. In Gothenburg, a criminal gang of youths forced their victim to kiss the gang leader's feet, while they filmed him. After that, they stomped on his face until he passed out.

In Stockholm, two 16-year-olds robbed, punched and kicked their 18-year old victim for hours. At the end of the ordeal, they took him behind a church where one of the perpetrators urinated on him while they called him names such as "fucking Swede". They then forced him to take his clothes of while laughing mockingly at him, the victim, only known as Liam, told Swedish TV. The two 16-year-olds filmed the incident and spread it on social media.

The parents of one of the perpetrators came to Sweden six years ago from an unspecified African country, according to Swedish TV, who interviewed them in February. The parents both work and said that their son lacks for nothing. The mother wore a hijab during the interview.

Although Swedish media rarely publish details of the ethnic origins of gang members, some media research has shown that gang members overwhelmingly are either foreign-born or children of immigrants. In 2017, the Swedish mainstream media outlet Expressen did a report about the 49 criminal networks in Stockholm. The report showed the networks consisted of between 500 and 700 gang members: 40.6% of the gang members that Expressen surveyed were foreign-born; 82.2% had two parents who were foreign-born. Their main country of origin was Iraq, followed by Bosnia, Lebanon, Somalia, Syria and Turkey.

"It is a way to show your power. They want to dominate places. They do that by putting fear in other youths," said Thomas Petterson, an analyst for the Gothenburg police, in August.
[.]
Exit Folkhemssverige also has a section about gang rape, which the authors present as a different kind of humiliation crime:
[.]
The usual pattern is the same as in the gang robberies. First, the ethnic relationship is the same: the victims are Swedish and among the perpetrators, the immigrants are greatly over-represented. For example, a study on sentencing practices shows that out of 24 perpetrators convicted of gang rape in 1989–91, 21 were foreign nationals. Whether the three Swedish citizens were ethnic Swedes or immigrants is not accounted for. Second, both perpetrators and victims are getting younger. In August 2001, for example, two 13-year-old girls in Malmö were raped by six immigrant boys aged 11 to 14. The case received widespread media attention, resulting in 17 rape reports against the same gang being filed with the police in the following days... The term 'whore' for Swedish women was launched by Muslim immigrant men from the Middle East. The concept has since been adopted by male immigrants from other cultures and now seems established..."

Welcome to Diversity. It strengthens and enriches the "social fabric."

All cultures are equal? Anyone trying to convince you of that is lying.

You can search it out on your own if you'd like, it won't take long. Quite a bit of feigned hostility on the web equating criticism of Dr. Anthony Fauci as being political. Because he's a Hillary fan (search it, it's true, he is).

No - questioning Dr. Fauci isn't politically motivated. Questioning Fauci on the Coronavirus and his assessment and degree of accuracy, and wondering if his modeling is correct, is based on Fauci's own past, fairly recent - and contradictory - statements:

Elizabeth Warren edges ever closer to the padded room.

Breitbart: Elizabeth Warren Demands ‘Critical’ Racial Data of those with Coronavirus.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is demanding the racial data of those contracting the novel coronavirus, contending that it is “critical to ensuring an equitable and just response to this crisis across the board.”

While the virus appears to be no respecter of persons, infecting more than one million people globally, Warren believes it is “critical” to have racial data to properly respond to the pandemic.

“Our health care system is rife with racial disparities. Racial data on coronavirus will be critical to ensuring an equitable and just response to this crisis across the board,” she wrote in a tweet, referencing an article from the Atlantic.

“But we don’t have that data—yet,” she added.

Maybe Liz should put her 9-year old trans child Cabinet member in charge of obtaining this information that she "demands".

I am sick and tired of hearing Democrats making "demands". They will get nothing and like it.

U.S. Military command teams in charge of protecting homeland security isolated in Cheyenne mountain bunker.

Daily Mail: U.S. military command teams in charge of protecting homeland security are being isolated in the infamous Cheyenne mountain bunker where they will remain 'sealed off' until the coronavirus pandemic passes.

The command took such steps to ensure personnel can monitor the COVID-19 pandemic around the clock as the disease spreads around the world[.]
[.]
Should the staff working at the bunker become ill, there is a third team of high-ranking military officials working another 'secret' location[.]
[.]
'Our dedicated professionals of the NORAD and NORTHCOM command and control watch have left their homes, said goodbye to their families and are isolated from everyone to ensure that they can stand the watch each and every day to defend our homeland.[']
[.]
The NORAD base lies behind 23-ton blast doors and is arguably the most secure place on earth. A warren of tunnels was blasted out of Colorado granite in the 1960s and is now teeming with high-tech surveillance and monitoring equipment.
[.]
The bunker lies 2,000 feet under Cheyenne Mountain outside Colorado Springs. It can be sealed off by two giant blast doors made of concrete and steel, each 3½ feet thick.
[.]
It takes 45 seconds for built-in hydraulic machinery to close the blast doors. If the hydraulics fail, two people can close them by hand.

The Daily Mail article is quite interesting with great photos of some of what is contained within Cheyenne Mountain.

Along with all those working in the medical field, those protecting the public (law enforcement, fire-fighters, first responders, etc), the truckers, delivery drivers, volunteers putting in time without pay to help others - say a prayer for those who protect our nation. All of these people are putting our lives ahead of their personal interests and their personal lives. We owe them BIG TIME.

...Soon?

Mask or No Mask? And no ice cream - WTF?

To mask or not? Good luck finding them retail. I haven't checked online. I hate online shopping and avoid it like the plague. The Boss is checking online, I guess.

The Philadelphia Inquirer: Should you wear a mask in public?

...researcher, Jeremy Howard, pointed to findings in dozens of scientific papers that indicate even the most basic of masks can be an effective tool in reducing virus transmission. A simple mask can be made without sewing by tying together two layers of a cut-up cotton blend T-shirt and covering the face and nose with it, being sure to wash the covering after each use.

Jeremy Howard was also on Laura Ingraham's program tonight and a segment featuring DIY paper towel masks. Take two or three sheets of paper towel, keep folding it length-wise until narrow, staple the ends together including a rubber band being attached with a staple (or two). Unfold it, put rubber bands on your ears, cover your mouth and nose and there ya go, a disposable face mask.

A few days ago in one of the supermarkets - why, I don't know - the cheese aisle was virtually empty. Cheese? Cheese. Is this a precursor to some future cheese-hoarding-crowd mentality?

TP disappeared a while back, re-appeared and was scooped up like it was gold and now is being restocked and is usually available. Shelves of disinfectant, hand sanitizer, bleach or hydrogen peroxide are empty.

Haven't seen Vitamin C anywhere for well over a week. I think taking extra C is great, but I can't believe how it vanished so quickly, probably by many who until this moment, never believed in its benefits. Panic and frenzy sells; the Herd usually moves in predictable ways.

On the way home, I had to stop at a big-box store that sells groceries. The Mrs. called, asked me to buy her some vanilla ice cream. None to be found. WTF? The ice cream freezer aisle was virtually empty. The few actual ice creams available were oddball flavors like cotton candy and sprinkles, and I knew she didn't want that. I phone her, tell her no vanilla, she says to forget it. Being the Trophy Husband that I am, I went to another store that had ice cream in stock, (not a lot, but enough), and vanilla, so I brought some home.

What's the next commodity the public will enter into Frenzy Mode that will disappear off the shelves? I want to be ahead of the curve. Eye drops? OTC spray for jock itch? Green food dye # 3? Bac-Os?

One shortage I haven't yet seen anywhere is in the cereal aisles. So far, they've been fully stocked, everywhere. Go figure.

I'm conscience of not touching my face, keeping distance from the gen pop as much as possible (always have, too many idiots) and use hand-sanitizer. I'm not sold on wearing a mask. Are you? Any items out of stock that normally aren't (other than the usual TP, OTC cold medicine, etc). Ice cream?

Joe Biden now supports China Travel ban he previously opposed. And he made his own Coronavirus face mask.

Breitbart: Democrat presidential front runner Joe Biden now supports President Trump’s ban on travel from China.

The day after Trump announced the ban in late January, Biden posted a tweet claiming actions need to be taken in the name of “science,” and not with Trump’s alleged “record of hysteria, xenophobia, and fear-mongering.”
[.]
During a campaign event in Fort Madison, Iowa, on January 31, Biden referred to the action as “hysterical xenophobia,” according to Grabien.

But now, Biden’s campaign said he supports the ban.

German cruise ship sinks Venezuelan warship.

It's always helpful to the strong image any country wants to project when one of its warships is sunk by a German passenger cruise ship.

The Jerusalem Post: Venezuelan warship shoots, rams into German cruise vessel before sinking.

BERLIN – A Venezuelan navy ship fired shots at a German-owned cruise ship on March 30 and rammed into the passenger vessel, leading to the sinking of the warship in the Caribbean.

The Iranian regime-allied Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro accused the captain of the RCGS RESOLUTE cruise ship of “terrorism and piracy" and sought to force the ship into a new direction on the high seas. The cruise ship, which had no passengers on board and was flying under a Portuguese flag, has a reinforced hull that enables it to sail through ice water.

“Shortly after mid-night, the cruise vessel was approached by an armed Venezuelan navy vessel, which via radio questioning the intentions of the RCGS RESOLUTE’s presence and gave the order to follow to Puerto Moreno on Isla De Margarita. As the RCGS RESOLUTE was sailing in international waters at that time, the Master wanted to reconfirm this particular request resulting into a serious deviation from the scheduled vessel’s route with the company DPA.”

According to the statement, “While the Master was in contact with the head office, gun shots were fired and, shortly thereafter, the navy vessel approached the starboard side at speed with an angle of 135° and purposely collided with the RCGS RESOLUTE. The navy vessel continued to ram the starboard bow in an apparent attempt to turn the ship’s head towards Venezuelan territorial waters.”

The cruise company said the RCGS RESOLUTE sustained minor damages, not affecting vessel’s seaworthiness, it occurs that the navy vessel suffered severe damages while making contact with the ice-strengthened bulbous bow of the ice-class expedition cruise vessel RCGS RESOLUTE and started to take water.”

Now we're advised to wear masks? Who's selling them?

I did notice an increase of people wearing a mask today than I did yesterday. Other than make one, which I could do, where are people buying these masks? Those that I saw weren't homemade.

Most were the usual surgical/dental-type white or blue PPE masks. A couple appeared to be the white N95.

I did see headlines where both Home DePot and Amazon stopped selling N95 masks to the public because of a shortage of them at hospitals.  So where are masks available? They had to be purchased retail, they didn't order them overnight. They must have stocked up weeks ago or they know someone. Do I have to talk to a friend now, to buy masks? WTF?

Pure and chaste Ilhan Omar wants flogging in the USA.

Alpha News: Omar Says Those Who Suspect Her Of Infidelity Should Be ‘Flogged’.

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota quoted the Quran on Twitter, Wednesday, to suggest that those who accuse her of infidelity should be flogged.

Omar’s suggestion came after Twitter user Retawa Agnihotri quoted a passage of the Quran that condemns adulterers beneath one of congresswoman’s tweets. Omar responded with a Quranic verse of her own that directs the faithful to “flog” those who make false accusations of against “chaste women.”

    “And those who accuse chaste women, and produce not four witnesses, flog them with eighty stripes, and reject their testimony forever. They indeed are the Faasiqoon (liars, rebellious, disobedient to Allaah)”

    [al-Noor 24:4].

    — Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) April 1, 2020

This exchange immediately drew significant criticism. Robby Starbuck, an accomplished music video producer and conservative political pundit chimed in, calling it “absolutely insane” that a “US Congresswoman encourages flogging those who are disobedient to Allah.”

Maajid Nawaz, the founder of a counter-extremism think tank also noted how “ISIS & other Islamists have only recently implemented such scripture with horrific results.”

“How appropriate do you [Omar] think it is for you to be publicly citing this passage advocating lashing other human beings, so publicly,” he asked.

Mohammad Tawhidi, also known as the Imam of Peace, weighed in, suggesting that it’s ironic how the congresswoman seemed to characterize herself as a “chaste woman.”

It might be simpler and easier for Ill-han to provide a list of family members and married men she hasn't slept fornicated with.

If Omar is so enamored with flogging, maybe she should relocate to a country more harmonious with her 7th century savage beliefs.

The abortion giant is also requesting donations for “hardware like laptops, phones, and hotspots that we hope will remain functional in the worst of scenarios” to ramp up its “remote call center.”

Townhall: Gay Lawmaker Angered That Franklin Graham Is Helping Save Lives in New York City.

An openly gay and anti-Christian New York state senator has condemned Franklin Graham and Samaritan's Purse for wanting to treat coronavirus patients.

Samaritan's Purse set up an emergency field tent hospital in Central Park at the request of city officials. The respiratory unit, which will be supervised by Mount Sinai Hospital, can accommodate 68 patients.

"It's a shame that the federal government has left New York with no other choice but to accept charity from bigots," State Sen. Brad Hoylman said. "You know those medical tents being constructed in Central Park? They’re being set up by notorious anti-gay bigot Franklin Graham."
[.]
It's unthinkable that anyone, much less a state lawmaker, would bully a bunch of Christians who simply want to provide medical treatment to critically ill New Yorkers.

"We don't discriminate against anybody" Graham said. "Our doors are open for all New Yorkers - regardless of their race, ethnicity or their sexual preference. We treat everybody the same."
[.]
Mayor Bill de Blasio told the New York Post that he was troubled over the ministry's commitment to traditional religious beliefs regarding marriage and sexuality.

“We’re going to send people over from the Mayor’s Office to monitor” the park facility, de Blasio added. “So I’m very concerned to make sure this is done right. But if it is done right, of course, we need all the help we can get.”

Even some in the city's LGBT community thumbed their nose at the Christian ministry's charity.

de Blasio Kaiser Warren Wilhelm, Junior, can't find a camera or microphone fast enough these days in which to stick his face and shed tears about how New Yorkers are dying and need help. Yet he doesn't seem to appreciate the help of Christians. Um - what is the Alphabet Brigade doing to help anyone?

As far as DEM NY State Senator Hoylman, wow, don't tell him he's not earning his salary and doing the work of the people. He tirelessly tackles the really big issues like risks to children from tanning beds.

We all know who the real haters and bigots are, here. They tell us who they are every time they speak.

Another Day in (pre?) The Reset.

Which Reset? Or should that be pReset?

Maybe this one?  Conspiracy Theorists Have Wild Theory Coronavirus is Happening, Claims Tom Hanks Isn't Really Infected.

Or this one? Is financial reset the endgame for the coronavirus hype?

Are hospitals busy? #FilmYourHospital.

St. Luke's, Denver @ Brandon Bowser.

In the thread below, the following obvious and valid point is made and discussed: you can't judge what's going on in the inside by only seeing the exterior. Excellent point, makes sense. However, as you read through the thread you'll find Tweets from people who claim to have knowledge of what's going on inside. Many of them state the MSM are greatly over-exaggerating the hospital overload and some claim they've been asked to take time off and leave early some days, because things are so slow.

I haven't driven by a local hospital in quite some time. Have you? Does it appear busy or overwhelmed? Leave a comment.

Here's the full thread #FlimYourHospital@Brandon Bowser.

I work in a Radiology department in a hospital. My hours have been cut and I showed up to work today and have been told to not show up the rest of the week. It’s absolutely dead in our hospital. The media is LYING, AGAIN!

JUCCII MANE@JucciiMane -22h
The worst part of all this is I now believe that our hospitals are run by the same groups that run the media. We have 30 potential covid patients, I think only 3 are positive. But they won’t tell us which ones are the positives.

My brother's wife is a surgical nurse at Beaumont in Detroit. I was kinda shocked when she posted today she is going to be sent home because there's "no work".  2 days ago, this hospital was "almost at capacity"?

In a tweet, Christopher Cuomo wrote, “Sooooo in these difficult times that seem to get more difficult and complicated by the day, I just found out that I am positive for coronavirus. I have been exposed to people in recent days who have subsequently tested positive and I had fever, chills, and shortness of breath. I just hope I didn’t give it to the kids and Cristina. That would make me feel worse than this illness! I am quarantined in my basement[.]"

Pelosi sinks to new low. Calls President Trump's Coronavirus response "deadly".

Nancy Pelosi on CNN's State of The Union with Jake Tapper. Pay attention to her face and eyes. She's about 30% lucid. The rest of her...deranged, drunk, on drugs or early-to-mid stage dementia:

Absolutely disgusting behavior on the part of the fossil Pelosi, who, with her comrades spent the past three years fiddling, doing nothing other than wasting time on a partisan witch hunt.

The only deadly person here is Pelosi.

Netherlands recalls 'defective' masks bought from China.

DW: Netherlands recalls 'defective' masks bought from China.

The Dutch government has ordered a recall on around 600,000 masks out of a shipment of 1.3 million from China after they failed to meet quality standards.

The defective masks had already been distributed to several hospitals currently battling the COVID-19 outbreak, news agency AFP and Dutch media reported. The Dutch Health Ministry has kept the rest of the shipment on hold.

An inspection revealed that the FFP2 masks did not protect the face properly or had defective filter membranes. The fine filters stop the virus from entering the mouth or nose. The masks failed more than one inspection.

"A second test also revealed that the masks did not meet the quality norms. Now it has been decided not to use any of this shipment," said the health ministry said in a statement to news agency AFP.
[.]
China is sending millions of masks and medical supplies to countries across the world to combat the COVID-19 outbreak. Countries which are receiving China's supplies include Serbia, Liberia, France, Philippines, Czech Republic.

Minnesota golfers as selfish and stupid as Spring Break students.

The Guardian: The spring breakers now regret partying.

...the University of Tampa has confirmed that at least five of those [Spring break] students have tested positive [for Covid-19].

KSTP: Petition to keep golf courses open during stay at home order gains thousands of signatures.

Most golf courses are closed as part of the stay at home order, but many Minnesotans argue it's an activity that should be allowed.
[.]
[John] Potter is the director of instruction at Prestwick Golf Club in Woodbury. He started a petition to open courses during this order, and it generated about 15,000 signatures in less than two days.
[.]
"With this virus going around we can obviously maintain safe distances, where I hit the ball, especially, no one goes," [said said Tom Moore, who lives in Woodbury.]
[.]
Potter hopes the voices of the golfers are heard.

"There's no reason to be closed, let's get it open," Potter said.

The preferred golf ball of PGA champions.

I really don't see why golf courses can't be open (with some restrictions for indoor areas), but that won't stop me from playing Devil's Advocate.

We can reach at least two reasonable conclusions:

1) Mr. Potter has a vested financial interest in petitioning against Minnesota's  "shelter-in-place" order issued by DEM Gov. Timmy "Ham-Head" Walz.

2) Mr. Moore can't golf worth a shit and his ball ends up in the rough more times than not.

Golf, cough, sneeze, get Covid-19 and please...drop dead anywhere other than on the green or you'll delay the golfers playing the hole behind you.

Your corpse in a bunker or sand trap would be nice. At least some golfer might be able to bounce their shot of your bloated body and onto the green instead of chipping out.

Just a reminder in this Chinese Wuhan Corona Virus pandemic...Wash your balls. Golf balls.

Herpes face actor Michael Rapaport is the Corona Virus Police. Also called Melania Trump a ‘Dumb FKC’ and a ‘Dumb Animal’.

Michael Rapaport, actor. Who? Yeah...exactly.

Nice Herp 1 chancres 'ya got there on the mouth and upper chin, Champ.

MSN: Michael Rapaport shares expletive-filled coronavirus PSA.

The 50-year-old comedian/actor/entertainment personality recorded an expletive-packed COVID-19 public service announcement and shared it Monday, encouraging people to stay home with some colorful language.

“Get your f---ing a-- in the house, you little selfish m-----f-----, you,” Rapaport concluded the message. Those were only two of the 24 f-bombs he dropped in the 2-minute, 20-second video, among numerous other obscenities.

Rapaport said someone had approached him to record a more family-friendly PSA, as many other celebrities have. But the podcaster and “True Romance" actor wasn’t having it and decided to do things his own, more flamboyant, way.

“I’m not asking ‘please,' I’m telling m-----f------ stay your little punk dirty s---stained a-- inside,” Rapaport said. “Parents, go outside grab your f---ing kids.”

Breitbart: Michael Rapaport Calls Melania Trump a ‘Dumb FKC’ and a ‘Dumb Animal’.

Actor Michael Rapaport viciously attacked First Lady Melania Trump on Sunday, calling her a “dumb animal,” in response to her coronavirus PSA in which Mrs. Trump suggested safety tips and said “while many of us are apart, we are all in this together.”

Look at this DUMB FKC!!! She thinks this is SEXXXY TIME? Dumb FKC! You dumb animal @FLOTUS, Michael Rapaport said in his rant posted to Twitter on Sunday.

“MAGA!!!! Look at what you’ve done!!!” he said.

Michael Rapaport has spent years taking cheap shots at the president and members of his administration. He was particularly triggered in October 2017, belting out a profanity-laced rant about climate change.

“Deviant Donald Trump. There’s no global warming, right? Look at your ice skating rink, you fucking dummy,” Rapaport said at the time. “It’s 80 degrees in October, but there’s no global warming. Fuck you, fuck your ice skating rink.”
[.]
The actor insisted last July that President Trump dreams of being a dictator, and also smeared Ivanka Trump.

“Dick stain fuck… let me tell you something on your stupid fucking independence day parade,” the Prison Break star said about the president’s proposed July 4th parade. “The only thing we want independence from is you, you fucking dog you. “You wanna be a dictator you ain’t no dictator, you’re just a dick.”

Untreated syph causes irreparable brain damage. Maybe his problem is that, not the Herp?

Rapaport needs a refill on his Acyclovir meds. Quarantine yourself, dick-stain!

UPDATE:  I didn't even know who this asshat was until recently.

TMZ: (December 21, 2018) Barstool Sports Fires Back He Cracked Herpes Jokes About Himself!!!

Michael Rapaport has no business suing anyone for saying he has herpes ... because he himself has said it ... according to the countersuit Barstool Sports just filed against the actor.
[.]
Barstool points out Michael commented on a 2015 photo of himself, saying, it "looks like" I have "a herpe."
[.]
For the record, Michael said in his lawsuit he "does not suffer from herpes."

Yeah...well, saying you don't have herpes is one thing. Providing independent medical evaluation supporting your claim is an entirely different matter.

Maybe those zosters on his mouth and chin are just healing scabs of syph pustules?

Boy, Golly, Gee, I sure wouldn't want to be sued by Herpes Face Michael Rapaport. He seems like such a tolerant person. You can tell by his diplomatic and tolerant behavior towards others.

So I'll go on record agreeing with Meester Rapaport that he does not have Herpes. It just looks like he does.

Illegal Aliens DEMAND $1,200 Federal relief checks.

Breitbart: Coronavirus: Illegal Aliens Demand $1.2K Each in Taxpayer-Funded Checks.

Illegal aliens are demanding they too receive $1,200 in federal checks from the government as part of a Chinese coronavirus crisis relief package.

Open borders organizations like the George Soros-funded United We Dream, the National Immigrant Justice Center, and the National Immigration Law Center — all of which represent the roughly 11 to 22 million illegal aliens living in the United States — are pleading with the federal government to cut federal checks to illegal aliens who have Individual Tax Identification Number (ITINs).

Currently, Trump’s coronavirus relief package includes $1,200 federal checks for American citizens with Social Security Numbers (SSN) or those considered “resident aliens,” like permanent lawful residents in the U.S. on green cards.

Illegal aliens, therefore, are excluded from receiving the federal checks, a provision that has outraged the open borders lobby.
[.]
Illegal alien advocates are asking the public to urge lawmakers to provide federal checks to illegal aliens in the midst of the coronavirus crisis.

Uh, relief checks for Illegals? NO, NO and FUCK NO!

Three Near Earth Objects; All Swings and Misses.

IBT (March 26, 2020): NASA Asteroid Tracker: 3 NEOs Approaching Earth Tomorrow. (So that would be today, the 27th).

How dare they! Teasing, godless asteroids and meteors tiptoeing their unobtrusive paths around earth. Another letdown. They missed us again. A damn shame.

No SMODs on the horizon for a good collision, either. Just downright disappointing.

"Snopes Says" the story about an asteroid hitting earth on April, 29, 2020 is "False", which could mean there's a high probability of it being "True". So we can look forward to that. Whatever it takes to stop the obsessive and frenzied run on TP.

"The Inn is closed," says MN DEM Gov. Tim Walz. Ham-Head declares, "shelter in place."

What a difference a bit of time, panic, frenzy, "free" Federal money, pandering to minorities, fear-mongering and hack political partisanship makes, hey Timmy?

Minneapolis Red Star Tribune (Archived) December 13, 2019: Gov. Tim Walz to Trump on refugees: 'The inn is not full in Minnesota'.

Gov. Tim Walz notified the Trump administration Friday that the state will continue to welcome refugees, pointedly saying that the “inn is not full in Minnesota.”
[.]
 “Refugees strengthen our communities. Bringing new cultures and fresh perspectives, they contribute to the social fabric of our state. Opening businesses and supporting existing ones, they are critical to the success of our economy,” [wrote Walz].

Bring Me The News (Archived) March 25, 2020: Gov. Walz announces 'stay at home' order for Minnesota.

[MN Governor Tim Walz] announced Minnesota would become the latest state to impose a stricter "shelter in place" order, starting Friday at 11:59 p.m.

However, the order is only going to be in place for 2 weeks.

This vacuous, media-whore (Walz can't go 24 hours without sticking his head like a canned ham in front of a camera or microphone) governor is now in self-quarantine because he may have been in contact with someone infected with Covid-19.

What happens after Gov. Ham-Head's two week shelter-in-place is up? I guess the Inn re-opens for welcoming back all infectious diseases and invasive species.

Minnesota - how and why TF did you elect this Big-Government, anti 2A/gun control freak,  polarizing, liberal, Trump-hating asshat? 

Wait - I know your response: "My parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, great-great grandparents all voted Democrat. So I vote Democrat." You're not doing yourselves or anyone else any favors. Maybe you will learn this if you live long enough. Maybe not. Some learn at a slower rate than others. Some never learn.

Last Call comes early tonight.

And in case you didn't know, Wash your hands...
