Temporarily consigned to their homes, liberal commentators and politicians have fallen back on a favorite time-wasting activity: America bashing.
Rachel Maddow eagerly tracks America's lead in infections. The Center for American Progress blithely accepts the claims of dictatorships in order to diss the president. When the United States acknowledged more COVID-19 cases than any other country, Hillary Clinton remarked with barely restrained glee, "He did promise ‘America First.'" Or, as one journalist put it: "Who's the shithole country now?"

Globalism as we know it is teetering for its great fall. The UN, W.H.O. are more cabal from the EU/China and serve this Great Republic no real purpose except for the fact in today's world, we chip in more Capital for their existence. The President will be looking hard at those who take our Capital. Pull the dollar. No money. No funny!

Just saw a 1998 documentary on the 1918 Flu. Now THERE was a pandemic.
One thing I noted--it was very noteworthy to the people who made the doc that sometimes factories closed and towns were locked down. Heck that happened 3 weeks ago almost everywhere and this flu isn't a tenth that bad.

Are we law abiding when we accept police giving us tickets for sitting in our cars in a church parking lot to attend a Sunday service? We have rolled over to a fear and a panic that was created out of something that we have encountered for centuries. Congress has done not one thing constitutional about it. Exactly ONE member of Congress stood up against doing in three weeks what Obama did in four of his eight years, print six trillion dollars. We are doing worse than what Abe in Japan has done. YOU are buying junk bonds. The fed and the treasury are now ONE organization. Did you know that? Does it matter because apparently the ONLY thing that matters is that if we try to act like Americans we are going to give everyone we touch the Chicom virus and we will get it and die from it ourselves. We have already proven since early March that we will believe anything and we have literally ended our constitutional representative republic for keeps, and our enemies KNOW it, and our enemies include the police officers who arrested a man and his daughter in Colorado for playing catch at a park out of fear of a virus no more deadly than the Spanish flu. We are going to add a minimum of ten trillion dollars to our debt in less than four months, something Obama took eight years to do because we've allowed ourselves to be conquered, and kids WE ARE CONQUERED. Go to a park and play a ball game today in a locked down state if you don't believe it. President Fauci will have you arrested.

The New York Times has an editorial claiming that America is not great. These other democrats are starting to pipe up with that same idea. Are they wanting to build the idea that Cuomo is right, when he said America was never great? Replace Biden?
I wouldn't doubt it for a second. Democrats will do anything- even trash their own country- to get into power and the National Treasury!

Perhaps the only thing about America that is not great- that is terrible even- is our media, which is little more than a herd of honking geese each thinking the other geese are admiring its loud honking and trying to honk more loudly.
Lockdown the crappy media. If you want to be scared, peruse the drudge report headlines.

Lots of time right now for these libs to read Rebecca West, Whittaker Chambers, and Solzhenitsyn, and more to lay bare the scourge of Liberalism aka Communism.

Hate destroys. And hate for President Trump, we, his supporters and our country, seeps like a contagion out of the pores of the Left and the media. It infects everything. We can only hope their hate devours them all before it destroys our beloved country. It is definitely the fight of good versus evil.

Just tacking this on to this article because it is another reason why the "sleeping giant" needs to be awakened.
We have got to bring all our pharmaceutical companies back to the United States. Breitbart has a great article today that informs us that India is the latest country after China to hold us hostage for receiving pharmaceuticals.

We are the greatest country on earth but our doctor-guided response has been incorrect. Trying to protect the hospitals from overflow we destroyed the beacon of Capitalism. The Javitz Center (2900 beds) and the Comfort and Mercy (1000 beds each), a 1000 bed field hospital in Seattle and so many others are unused. Hydroxy Chloroquine + Azt +Zn not being prescribed because Dr. Fauxi. Face masks not recommended until just now by CDC. Not one single double-blinded clinical trial completed by the disastrous NIH. Deaths of flu lumped together with Coronavirus. Surgeries suspended for two months, our hospitals empty now and will be overwhelmed when this Chinese Cold Virus burns out with the spring weather. This is a bad case of the flu, that’s all. Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore and Japan bested the virus simply by using face masks and contact tracing while the people continued working. Sorry for the realistic assessment, but Trump’s job approval is at 43% in Rasmussen today and if we lose this election to the Marxists, the whole world goes down the drain. Better open up May 1st, or no MAGA-KAG will happen.

The federal and states' response to medically dealing with the virus has been impressive. I'm afraid, however, that when the dust settles the United States will not be the country that is looked to as the model on how to deal with a new contagion. Instead the models will be the countries that did not lock down their citizens and crash the economy. Sweden for one is up and running even though the people there have adopted social distancing. Restaurants and bars are open although not as full as is normal. Schools are open. The Swedes have not taken on the outrageous debt that our government, including the president, celebrate.
I'm encouraged that President Trump appears to be on the verge of distancing himself from the harmful advice given by the "medical experts." If and when he does signal an end to the economic shutdown he will face vicious opposition from the Democrats and and media. I hope he doesn't waver. Politically he is stuck with pretending that what was done to our country, including the trillions of dollars of debt we have incurred, during this panic was justified "by the science." His instinct, I think, was not to cripple the country but was bullied into the current harmful course by the experts. He can atone by getting this country open as soon as possible.

p.s. I was not thrilled to learn from the article that Bill Gates has seven (7) Vaccine Factories. Why don't so many of these philanthropists ever do anything without financially benefiting from their philanthropy?

Chuck Fina. They did this intentionally and in my view this is an act of biological warfare. So what do we do about it? Increase tariffs? Hillary would send a stern letter of reprimand for being so sloppy in the biowarfare lab and making so many mistakes. What’s Trump going to do? Perhaps a blockade of all goods manufactured in China being prohibited from being imported for starters.
