Because since the impeachment thing has gone away they have to create some panic to keep themselves viable.

The lockdowns can help to “flatten the curve" . . .

That was true for the first two weeks, maybe even the first four or six. But we are now on day #60, starting week #8 and that ship has long since sailed.

In New York, two-thirds of the new cases are from people already shut in and locked down. In South Korea, most of the new cases are from a certain demographic having unnatural sex acts with multiple strangers. A longer lockdown will address neither root cause.

Try and watch Chicago “News” Stations - no other news than We are all gong to die. Every broadcast starts with the Pandemic in Illinois - 1000’s of new cases hit Chicago today. Or Virus shows no signs of slowing down.

That is the news here all day every day.

Of course it’s politically motivated. A poor economy in November almost guarantees a Democrat sweep. That is exactly what the networks and DR. Fauci want. That he is aiding them with his over abudance of caution and his clinging to an inaccurate forecast model as his excuse, are obvious to anyone with a brain.
His latest is a warning not to reopen schools in the fall.
He needs to be replaced. Yesterday.

They want to blame Trump for every death post-shutdown. This is more important than bankrupting the nation to them so they have focused on creating a narrative and driving a wedge between Trump and the experts.

Trump was very smart to put them front and center in the press conferences. We all heard what they were telling him, but with hindsight and as the fog of war is clearing it is beyond obvious that we need to open the country back up ASAP as their dire, one-size fits all approach, was wrong.

Partner, I see the "Insane Moron Neil Cavuto" who tries to be a political journalists and this is really a business channel on Fox Business Channel.

Actually, Neil Cavuto should not even be shown on T.V., period, since he is always giving his opinion which is the incorrect data or something else.

There are others who I do not even see and this is why I am going to OAN channel where they report the news only and do not give opinions.

Because they might be held accountable for the lies they tell in the next 4 years, and something “might” be done about it.

Newsmax is OK too. OAN is click away here as well. Fox is hanging on by a thread.

Drudge and all the rest are IN the words of KKK Byrd are gone Gone GONE!!

As for Cavuto, you can shove him and Karl Rove off in a lifeboat with Mitt.

This was no pandemic. It was a narrative intended to focus people on an invisible and indestructible enemy in order to crash the economy and hasten the progressive takeover. It has been hyped by the media and government employees at all levels as well as teachers.

Simple. There are only a few “terrorist” boogeymen they can use on the electorate. The Deep State has been losing the element of fear, then along comes a manufactured problem that they immediately attempted to use for political gain. With plans to push for “vaccines” and reap major profits from big pharma, they lionize Dr. Fauxi and Dr. Scarf. As long as they keep pushing the LIE, they will get a place at the trough.

Sadly this shows how much power the MSM still holds in its ability to frame a false narrative and cause panic in the population. My bet is they will still be talking about a second wave until or if a Democrat wins in November.

Remember when all the world’s problems under GW Bush went away right after Obama was elected?

To show Trump destroyed the economy......the success he had before the virus would have given Trump a landslide victory...so the media propagandist arm of the Demorat party will certainy throw fire on the economy issue and reveal temselves as the great rescuers....via whatever ticket they eventually run.
