Chicago — Just 29 people are hospitalized with COVID-related illness in Chicago, a city with a population of 2.7 million people. Despite the fact that just .001 percent of Chicago residents are hospitalized with COVID-19, the city’s indoor mask mandate remains, with no word on what specific circumstances will trigger its demise. The indoor mask mandate went into effect on August 20 in Chicago. (Snip) In a state with a population of 12.7 million people, COVID-related hospitalizations represent .015 percent of the population. Yet, Governor JB Pritzker’s administration has not said how close we are to lifting the statewide indoor mask mandate that went into effect August 30.

Bank robbers wear masks. Petty criminals wear masks. Murderers wear masks. All part of the Party of Crime normalizing criminality and criminalizing law-abiding citizens who "yearn to breathe free."

Those masks are great for taking facial recognition (human or computer) out of the equation for solving crime.

Stupid governor and Beetlejuice for mayor does not make for common sense. The incest of the Chicago mob is finally showing through in the defective offspring. Lets hope the infighting and circular firing squad shooting continue and wipe them all out.

On Saturday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Yasmin Vossoughian Reports,” Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY) argued that the $3.5 trillion price tag for the Build Back Better Act reconciliation package “is a modest investment” for an economy the size of America’s. Torres said, “[T]here’s misconception about the price tag of the Build Back Better Act. The Build Back Better Act, the original draft, it is not 3.5 trillion over the course of a year. It’s over the course of ten years. So, it’s $350 billion. Which, for a $20 trillion economy like ours, is a modest investment. So, I think it’s shortsighted to focus on the price tag.”

Benedict Cumberbatch is reflecting on playing a closeted cattle rancher who falls in love with a young man in 1920s Montana in his new movie “The Power of the Dog.” The Oscar-nominated actor plays Phil Burbank, a hypermasculine rancher who inspires fear in awe in those around him—a reign of terror that comes from a deeply closeted sexuality. His made-up persona runs into some trouble after his brother (Jesse Plemons) brings home a new wife (Kirsten Dunst) and her queer son (Kodi Smit-McPhee). Phil torments them until he finds himself exposed to the possibility of love.
