Drama much?

It’s been ten days. You would think you’ve been locked up in a basement for twenty years.

“We are being played by the Fake News!”

Is POTUS being played too?

I don’t know where Acton is getting her figures. And funny thing, our local newspaper has stopped publishing the list of cases in Ohio by county, likely because it showed the cases were not doubling every three days they way we were told they would.
There are still counties in Ohio that have zero cases, and counties whose case number have held steady for three weeks!
The real figures do not match Acton’s dire predictions, yet she keeps telling us that huge numbers are coning “in weeks”.
I’m fed up with her.

“To save us from what amounts to the common cold.”

How could POTUS fall for such a scam?

About 3;000 US deaths so far are holding 300 million US citizens hostage.

I don't understand why these idiots insist on trying to look into the future. /s

I know the US and Canada aren’t in “ lockdown.


Some parts of the U.S. are, my part (and yours) isn’t. But India is and that 1.3 billion right there. The two largest cities in Nigeria are, and much of Europe is.

We need to know how Fauci is going to measure the death rate. If a positive-testing deceased has a serious pre-existing condition, will the death be automatically listed as a Corona death? Will everyone who dies of a heart attack after testing positive go on the death list? Truth in labeling is the only option — no matter how many Phd.s a popular expert may have.


Agree. Every fatality positive for Wu Flu going forward will be added to the “pandemic” pile. Nobody will die simply with the Wu Flu because there is no money in that. More than anything now we are dealing with psychological warfare and the key tool for the Wu Flu pumpers is their body count.

I am angry with him right now. I expected this kind of behavior from Obama, not trump. He think’s he can just suspend the constitution because he says so? Please show me where in the constitution it says the president can declare himself dictator and suspend the constitution.

This isn’t about the flu bro. This isn’t the flu. I am not one of them. I fully believe that this is as serious as it gets.

My problem is with the Dr. “no solutions just problems” Frauduci.

This is about the functionary bro who Trump is listening to. Fauci is a cancer that must be isolated. He has the DNA of that most insidious of creatures, the Washington, Deep State Bureaucrat.

He is the Ultimate Functionary. Solving problems is anathema to his existence. He sees a solved problem as a threat to his existence. Without a problem, he would have no function. He lives for nothing but the PowerPoint, the projection, rhe assumption.

You know him, I know him. He is that guy who calls endless meetings to have endless discussions about follow up meetings to prolong the discussion. Nothing ever gets done. It’s all an abstraction and academic exercise so that he can continue to make an artful comment and show the world how smart he is.

And when pressed, when our up against it to reach a conclusion what does a man like this do? He rattles on about models and assumptions then renders his worse case scenarios and then gives that ultimate, cowardly cherry on top and says:

“But don’t hold me to that.”

Sorry, but I am done with this POS. If this guy had been in charge of getting us to the Moon, he would have spent all his energy projecting how to bring the Moon to us.

I was done with Mr. Lockdown the second he poo pooed treatments and instead discussed process. “This Virus is deadly!!! But not so deadly that we can’t take the time to have a nice bureaucratic clincal trial that will take forever.”

We need a cure for this virus and it starts with isolating the cancer known as Fauci.

Yes they will. Deaths per day will hit about 2,500 in a couple of weeks. That will convince all but the most mad of the FluBros.


Convince us of what? That it was a good idea to rip the engines and wings off the American economy as it was flying high at 38,000 feet?

So, now we will spend $10 trillion or more shutting down the country. Then what’s the plan, Stan? You don’t have one. All Wu Flu addicts do is tantrum until they get there way and the US economy is destroyed. They couldn’t care less about economic carnage the Wu Flu Panic has caused.

A few days ago, near the end of a press briefing, Dr. Fauci went to the microphone, not in answer to any question, and gave what seemed to be a classroom lecture on the methodology of developing a vaccine. Developing a vaccine is important, but it is NOT what is needed right now. He went on and on about it. I do not trust him at all.

Once POTUS moves to reopen the country the Wu Flu addicts will go back to attacking him. Guaranteed.

If you are sick of projections based on models Dr. Fauci threw cold water on models today. But you’re sick of him so ...

“He think’s he can just suspend the constitution because he says so? Please show me where in the constitution it says the president can declare himself dictator and suspend the constitution.”

Congress granted (acknowledged) that power with the Emergencies Act.

It’s 100% legal and constitutional. It’s even been challenged in the courts several times.

So, whether you recognize it or not, it’s like taxes.

They will exact your compliance with force if necessary.
