Hard to believe that this is a headline from a supposedly reputable news organization. Trump had made the claim that all the most dangerous US cities were run by Democrats, So WaPo attempted to debunk the claim. By looking at their own graph, they clearly failed. Shamelessly, they still chose that headline.
Unbelievable. First time in history? The will surely turn the entire Muslim world against the COVID farce.
CBS:
“The one thing we do know is that these masks make a gigantic difference. I would insist that everybody in public be wearing that masks,” Biden continued. “I would do everything possible to make it required that people have to wear masks in public.”

No one seems to care about the businesses and residents who resided in 6-block area of Seattle taken over by the rioters. We’ve heard nothing of their suffering, which is a direct outcome of the city abandoning them. Now they’re suing, and good for them.
Proving that, despite what the corporate authority-worshiping media would have you believe, a vigorous defense of liberty is a winning idea.
Well, it’s really the entire Political Class who is combing all of society for evidence of systematic racism, and as a result, they continuously look like fools. Tucker explains:
City leaders currently allowing mobs to rampage freely through their streets, refusing to denounce the violence and chaos, must believe that by doing so the mob will be more quickly satisfied and dissipate. Let them mindlessly tear down statues, destroy and deface property, attack various bystanders caught in the wrong place and time, and hopefully they’ll just go away, is apparently the logic here. But for a violent mob there is no rhyme or reason, there is no satiating it. Rather, the lack of consequences enflames and emboldens it. And it is definitely an ‘it’. A mob is re-barbarization made starkly visible, in the same way that fire is the more violent, rapid, and destructive form of the oxidation process that the rust is also a part of. The punitive, feeble-minded lockdowns conjured into existence powerful forces of what I can only describe as re-barbarization, where primitive human drives awaken from a civilization-induced slumber and run amok. The mob has no intelligence and no goal other than inflicting chaos and destruction upon a modern world that must appear very unnatural to it. If there exists anything in human nature that could be called ‘original sin’, it’s this primitive impulse to drag society back to the Dark Ages, the impulse that is currently allowed free rein under the guise of ‘anti-racism’. But it’s no longer about racism, or police violence, and sadly it appears that the opportunity for real change in police accountability has passed. The voice of the mob is speaking, and it’s the voice of anti-civilization.
The mob is rejecting the modern world, rejecting the very values of equality and liberty that the modern world was built on. And so it tears down monuments to those ideals. But the toppling of statues will never be enough. The mob, being a predictable force of nature, requires atonement via the deaths of flesh and blood human beings. Not merely the many deaths that have already occurred at the hands of the mob, but executions, will follow from the symbolic destruction of property.
But, American citizens won’t let it come to that. Which is why the next phase of this nation’s spiral will manifest in a populist counter reaction to the left-wing mobs. This will not be a good thing, because it will mean that the citizens of this country have lost their confidence in the ability of their own government to put a stop to the left-wing pogrom. A right-wing analogue will emerge, with their own mob and their own leaders. ‘Law and Order’ will be their rallying cry, and it will attract wide support. Leaders will eventually emerge, and center on personalities that more closely resemble Brazil’s Bolsonaro or the Philippines Duterte. This would be a devastating development, and it would be true, populist fascism. Homegrown, as it always is. They’ll be swept into power in order to subdue the left-wing mobs, but once they’re gone, they won’t leave office. The American Strongman will emerge in what will be the final act of a play that began with a trumped up reaction to a phantom illness that will soon be forgotten.
To a certain extent, I’ll play along with the coronavirus farce. I’ll keep my distance, stand on the blue dots in a check-out line. But that’s about as far as I’ll go. Using a freshly sanitized cart is ironically disgusting, as they are usually still wet from whatever chemical brew they’ve been dowsed with. I’ll take nature’s pathogens over sterile toxins any day. I still see people wearing the dangerous N95 masks, suffocating on their own carbon dioxide, as well as the middle-aged crowd scared out of their wits, and I think it’s high time we give up this superstitious fear over a phantom illness that poses a risk only to the very old and immunocompromised. Our sanity is at stake. Shutting down society over a mild infection is something only a hypochondriac would think a wise choice. And the news is apparently brainstorming with those rare people for whom the world outside their homes is a waking nightmare of germs. No, we are done with this charade. Those that want to cower in their homes should be allowed to. But they should have no influence over the lives of others. If they want to play Russian roulette with their lives by injecting a dangerous, untested coronavirus vaccine, let them. But don’t force me to do the same. I place my trust in the real miracle of evolution, the process that has gifted us with our miraculous immune system. We have evolved to handle mild infections and to develop and pass on a natural herd immunity to COVID-19, directly contributing to that evolutionary process. I can think of no act more dangerous than tampering with evolutionary forces, which is what is apparently being suggested with the fast-tracking of an RNA vaccine. Let’s ditch the crazy talk, and remove the crazies from power, before they sanitize us right off a cliff.
De Blasio has the gates to a Jewish playground welded shut: This is why libertarians want to reduce government’s power, because you get people like this who wield it like a kid who finds his dad’s gun.
De Blasio asks contact tracers not to ask COVID-positive individuals if they’ve attended BLM protests: And this reveals several things: that it’s offensive to the privacy and dignity of the person being interrogated, and that COVID isn’t dangerous to the non-eldery adults attending these protests. And really, if anything positive does emerge from the protests, it will be the rapidly-attained herd immunity to COVID-19. These mostly under-50 people will develop natural, life-long immunity without the need for any vaccine or treatment.
