Italy’s COVID-19 fatality rate has been abnormally high, but now researchers have found that only three coronavirus deaths have occurred with people who had no prior health condition. Half of the dead had 3 or more prior illnesses, more than 75% had high blood pressure, 35% had diabetes, and a third had heart disease. Only three of those who have died had no preexisting condition.
An immediate $1,000 per month to everyone who is being affected by the coronavirus panic. Some will say that this is welfare, but isn’t this actually the point of government, and of taxes? To protect the welfare of the public in the event of a pandemic? It seems crazy not to consider it.
Very few individuals with the inner steel of Chelsea Manning have ever walked this earth. We live in what could best be referred to as the Age of Towering Vanities, an age where character and principle are as foreign as they are on Uranus. The social media mob, taking the form of Plato’s troglodyte monster, rules the roost of public opinion on culture, politics, art, and morals. And as mob rules usually go, it vulgarizes everything it touches. Within this milieu, morality and character become non-existent yet outrage is ubiquitous. In this environment, derelict parents neglect their duty to raise their kids, giving them phones instead. The mob becomes mother and father of a new generation.
Amid this decayed moral apocalypse walks Chelsea Manning, a rare individual who made a conscious decision to do something right, regardless of the personal cost. Her leak of the atrocities committed by American soldiers in Iraq got her several years of torture under Obama. The torture consisted of months of continuous sleep deprivation, forced nudity, and other degradations committed by mindless goose-steppers who follow orders without question. She was released, but later was compelled to testify against Wikileaks. Her character being what it is, she refused, and for that was tossed in jail again for a year. She could’ve taken the easy way out at any time by agreeing to testify. She refused, and apparently would rather kill herself than compromise her values. Following her suicide attempt, the presiding judge granted her release. Again, she is free. Here’s to the hope that she finds peace and safety out of the reach of the filth of the Political Class.
Rather than clamor endlessly for saviors and messiahs to lead us out of the desert, it would be better to search within ourselves for even a shadow of the courage exhibited by Manning, who faced the abyssal imperial war machine head on, and standing alone, refused to blink, and refused to budge.
“Reputation is what others think of you. Character is what you are.”
“These are the days that try the stoutest burlap in which cats were ever bagged.”
-Walter G. Fuller, The Freeman
What’s the point of even running a Democratic candidate if this is what you come up with?
It’s a little hard to believe that the Democratic establishment would, in the end, pick someone like Joe Biden as their champion to finally take down Trump. Really? The guy that can barely string together a sentence without blurting out a sexist/racist gaff? The guy that has to put his hands on every little girl within reach? The guy who used his political influence to strong-arm a foreign prosecutor into not looking into his drug addict son’s shady dealings? The guy that lies about pretty much everything about his past?
They might as well have not even held a primary and just given Trump his second term. Biden will be eaten alive by Trump, and Trump will enjoy doing it.
One thing is certain: the debates between Trump and Biden will be high comedy. Trump will toy with his opponent, making him appear a complete fool, humiliating the confused Biden on live television. Biden is famous for his quick temper, so will he try to fight Trump on live TV? It’s going to be good.
I remain in awe that after four years of scheming to oust Trump from office, of endless anti-Trump raving, Biden is who they came up with. A worse candidate than Hillary, something I didn’t think possible, will now run against Trump, and with results similar to the 2016 election.
Behold the true character of the Democratic Establishment’s candidate of choice:
We shouldn’t wonder why people would support Bernie Sanders. 500,000 American citizens getting what amounts to a colossal crap sandwich from the medical establishment in this country, and we think that they’ll quietly take it? The answer isn’t “medicare for all”, which would do nothing but further skyrocket prices, doubling the number of bankruptcies. The solution is a complete demolition of the medical cartel and the laws that create the artificial scarcity that in turn forces up these prices.
Florida cop, and coward of a man, arrests 6-year old girl.
Get these people out of range of children, and if your school absolutely needs security, hire from a private firm. A private contractor won’t bring all the baggage that a cop carries with them. They can’t make arrests, they can’t beat up kids and then cower behind “qualified immunity”, and they aren’t mindlessly worshiped by society at large. They patrol and monitor the school for crazy people seeking to harm the kids. They don’t interfere with the daily operation of the school. They are a simple protection against the nutjobs that occasionally pop up. Cops in schools have been a disaster. Get them out.
