Another contender is the narrative that the media and libs were so concerned about COVID and trying to raise the alarm during the critical first months when in actuality if you go back in time you’d find at that point they were busy chasing Trump around with the impeachment stupidity.

The very least one could say about China’s actions and attitudes would be that they have been ambiguous and we are right to consider the possibility that this either started out or became during the process a weaponized attack on our prosperity and freedom in the western world.

The very least we should do in response is to place heavy import duties on Chinese goods as a partial recovery from the economic harm — I would personally favor a ban on imports altogether but perhaps that would harm economic interests within our countries, as they would be certain to retaliate in kind.

We should also play hard-ball on the cultural and sporting fronts, seek to ban China from all participation in the international community. Send their ambassadors home. Make it clear that we are fed up with their attitude and won’t be taking it lying down.

As to the numbers, they are almost certainly lying about their numbers. Why should anyone trust what they say? We can hardly trust our own democratic governments so that one, I don’t think so.

No one was freaking out on March 4th in DC or in the media.

On that night Garth Brooks was awarded the Library of Congress Gershwin Award for Popular Song. It was held in an auditorium full of people. No social distancing. Lots of hugging, hand shaking, etc.

Members of the audience include members of Congress (Pelosi, McCarthy, Stonyer, Lehey, etc) and others.

Now I’m supposed to believe in one month the end is near?

Influenza A and B kick the crap out of this SRS virus. More cases, more hospitalization, more spikes and flats, and more deaths. With vaccines.

And no economic destruction.

So I’m not listening to lying pols who were partying like crazy one little month ago.

BTW it was on PBS just last Sunday.
