It’s just the flu, bro.

A few things to watch for at the state level: 1. More tyranny in various states with heavy handed approaches to social distancing. 2. More good news in treatment front - ventilator bad...hydroxychloroquine (sp?) good....but how many states are making things worse by denying the medicine because they hate Trump. 3. Which states are going to keep the lockdown even after Trump/CDC says to end it. 4. And just a comment - I like how Trump allows state’s to do what they want.

And also note that these death stats are trash and lies. They want Corona funding.

The curve was flattened and hospitals aren’t overrun...so declare mission accomplished and open everything up. Reframe victory as a successfully flattened curve, in order to extract us from this mess.

Freepmail to get on ping list. I hope Flubros and Flubras can continue to meet here until the lockdown is over, in addition to special reunion gatherings to discuss how it was just the flu, bro.

I was definitely one of the few running around celebrating Easter a lil early while shopping.
Most were masked and filled with fear.

Before Michigan Governor Whitmer's latest "order", forbidding Michiganders from visiting friends and relatives in their homes, a "March on Lansing" (more of a drive-- read on) was planned for the 15th. The following is being spread by email and facebook. Feel free to spread it around, in and out of Michigan.

Dear Patroits,

We are all concerned for those afflicted with COVID 19. Yes, many of the personal behaviors we have been reminded to use are good practices. Wash your hands. Cover your cough. Stay home if you are sick.

That said, Michiganders are fed up!

Our Governor and her allies are infecting ALL of us with their radical, progressive agenda. There is NO reasoned and public plan to promote our overall physical and economic health!

Dope stores? Open. Abortion clinics? Open. Churches? Shut down. Local businesses? Going broke!

Many have asked us: “What should I do? I will go bankrupt if this continues.”

Here is the brutal truth. Calling your elected Representative, your elected Senator or even the Capitol won’t do a THING. Why? Those offices are all shut down. Plus the electeds have clearly “signaled” that they will do NOTHING to oppose this Governor’s tyranny.

To “redress our grievances” citizens are reduced to doing one thing: TAKE ACTION IN LANSING.

People always say: “Conservatives never protest because they are too busy working.”

Well, guess what. You’re not working— so it’s time to PROTEST.

Everyone, every citizen, every business owner needs to get out of their house, out of their chair and get in their car, or truck, or anything that is legal to drive on taxpayer funded roads. Then drive to Lansing to circle the Michigan Capitol Building at 100 N. Capitol Avenue at noon on April 15.

Come prepared for a traffic jam in Lansing!

Whitmer wants Michigan to be in gridlock. We plan to give her a gridlock in Lansing!

Stay in your vehicle as the “Whitmer police” will likely be out to enforce social distancing. That said we need to display our flags, take signs, make noise and make our unhappiness known!

While pushing her progressive agenda, our radical Governor has announced no plan of any kind to restart the economy. Of course, neither has the Legislature! Citizens can use Operation Gridlock to let Lansing know that citizens are FED UP and expect better.

To start, our radical Governor needs to treat us like adults (a/k/a taxpayers who fund her JOB) who are aware that we need to take steps to stay healthy. Apparently, she missed that being healthy INCLUDES having a JOB, opening your business SOON and keeping our Constitutional rights.

There is much to do, but let’s start in Lansing at noon on April 15. See you there!

Share this email with your FED UP friends, family, co-workers and neighbors. Let us know on our Facebook page that you’ll attend. Or follow us on InstaGram at mi_conservative_coalition

I suspect the states will become more and more interested in ending the lockdowns when their tax revenues fall off the cliff.

"The curve was flattened and hospitals aren’t overrun...so declare mission accomplished"

You think the curve will stay flat if you reopen this soon? You still have 33,000 new cases a day in America.

We're not prepared to reopen yet. Where are the masks for the general public? Is the testing ready. Is the contact tracing ready.

Reopen now and the cases will spike and the lockdown will be for naught.

#openamericanow was trending on twitter earlier. That’s a good sign.

Big Tech like Google and Facebook are actively censoring those of us in the #FireFauci movement.

Time to go back to the old telephone tree. Everyone contact 10 friends and tell them to contact the White House and demand his dismissal.

Approx. 100 participants involved to pick up the food baskets. A few wearing masks.

Both distribution days, I got my baskets before the herd arrived, and left almost immediately.

No more than 5 customers and 6 volunteers were on the premise at the same time, during my presence.

Me- purchased last week: $246 (very low exposure vs big box store population / interaction)
Me- purchased this week: $184 (very low exposure vs big box store population / interaction)

I was able to distribute food to 8 people in my family (including myself) last weekend AND- this weekend, at our house.

Sister- working from home (commercial real estate rental management due to COVID 19)
Niece- (furloughed from tattoo parlor & piercing salon work due to COVID 19)

Enjoying watching the “Hurt Locker” right now, while quaffing a 9% New Belgium Voodoo Ranger Imperial IPA, and enjoying an accompanying refreshing 4.2% Bud Light Chelada Extra Lime made with Clamato.

Contemplating a possible beer run later today, in search of a small batch bourbon.
