We just put the names we recommend for each position. People can investigate if they want but the late voter just wants to know who to vote for and will thank you for the list.
OMG...I’m so sick of the calls for us all to get together when someone like Susan Rice continues unabated after her lying Benghazi fiasco and is still welcomed to be showcased on the mainstream media.
ABC provided today advice from “Nate”
[lives with mommy but he did clean his room for this]
to Pres. Trump to push MASKS.
ABC lies magnificently claiming Pres. Trump is
dividing America (”with his exclusively white base
of supporters”)
ABC also claimed Pres. Trump cried “white power”
from his golf cart.
no mention of importing cases from Mexico, of course
no mention of DNC Governors murdering Americans, of course
no mention of MASK problems, of course
I don’t understand how conservative R Govs like my Ducey, and TX’s Abbott can be so panicked by these useless COVID stats. DeSantis excepted.
Ditto for panic among the sport leagues. Healthy, young peeps almost never have serious repercussions, and we’ve known from week 1 that effective treatments are available for any that might catch it. XYZ HAS COVID ! HE’S GONNA’ DIE ! WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE !
Infected athletes (healthy and thus rare) usually don’t know they have it. Almighty “testing” advises them of their illness. They’re asymptomatic, so care should be taken with family, parents or senior volunteers, but do we know of any athletes who have not recovered quickly? How long before college or pro sports leagues realize the best tactic is to infect the entire team now, before the season, when stars might be needlessly sidelined at a crucial time? Dabo at Clemson figured it out.
I COULD SCREEEEAAAAAM !!!! And do scream, every damn day.
I have increased my daily meditations relaxation exercises walks with the dog and prayer to avoid going crazy with all this insanity
FOX panel discussing it now...thankfully.
And we've wasted most of 2020, based on faulty data. What a frkn' shame.
They don’t want this virus to go away so bad. They have to keep it alive until the election. Trump must wear masks. We must stand apart 25 feet.
Over and over and over.
Americans are going to start giving them the finger more and more.
But they ain’t giving it up.

Everyone, Pat, RG, LS, AB, Chiller, composted, all,
My wife insisted I watch this 77min video...watched it last night...wow. Much of it we know, and to hear two Hollywood stuntmen, expose this, is hopeful. How this video is still there amazed me, and these guess need armed protection...Please invest the time and propagate it wide and far...Please. You won’t regret it.
I am going to post this link again (can’t remember where I posted it before, but I did) because it makes me angry to the depths of my being when I see statues coming down, donations to BLM, people whining that ‘black women’ are more apt to be affected by that (racist!) virus COVID-19 an on and on.
Ripping down statues does NOTHING of value, it’s virtue signaling. Sending money to BLM does NOTHING except enable a demented DemonRat to fund his campaign coffers & he himself has had 40-50 years in government, including 8 as a VP for a “black” president, who did very little for blacks, other than make their situations worse. As for those black women, adversely affected by the virus ... it’s not hiding behind the bushes saying “white - nope, Asian - nope, AHA - BLACK - yup, that the one I’m going to infect!!”.
This doctor is fighting an amputation EPIDEMIC. Unfortunately, the amputations are a symptom of the real problem ... Type 2 Diabetes, which CAN BE AVOIDED. The Black American community is rife with this epidemic. It takes education, a “proper” diet, not the ‘Standard American Diet’ that the government touts. NONE of what is being done (see first paragraph) truly HELPS people whose lives are being turned upside down, if not ruined with amputations that are totally avoidable, if the situation leading to them is addressed early enough. Black, white, whatever color, T2D doesn’t care .... you can lose a limb, go blind, have a higher cardiac issue risk ... it doesn’t discriminate; however, there is an epidemic in the Black American community in particular.
Pray for Dr. Fakorede - he’s fighting a forest fire with a garden hose & God bless him for what he’s doing. Diet Doctor is publicizing his story & I’m sending it on to some other doctors who might be willing to muster some “forces” to help him, not only with what he’s doing directly, but to address the root cause. I don’t think Dr. Fakorede would object to having less amputations to deal with, if they could be “headed off at the pass”.

ProPublica: Crusading cardiologist aims to prevent diabetic amputations
https://www.dietdoctor.com/propublica-crusading-cardiologist-aims-to-prevent-diabetic-amputations
From DD link:
“The feature, by investigative health writer Lizzie Presser, tells of the crusading work of Dr. Foluso Fakorede, the only cardiologist in Bolivar County, Mississippi and his Amputation Prevention Institute.
Dr. Fakorede, who was born and raised in Nigeria before immigrating to the US, is fighting against systemic barriers and biases to try to save patients’ limbs. He uses his interventional cardiology skills to open up closed or narrowed blood vessels to try to restore healthy circulation to the legs and feet, a process called re-vascularization.
Presser spends time with Dr. Fakorede and meets various patients in the Mississippi Delta region, observing them as they face the potential loss of a limb, for a deeply moving long-form article about this devastating complication of uncontrolled type 2 diabetes. It is a stellar piece of journalism worth your time to read.
Diet Doctor has written about the rising rates of amputations for diabetes before and how better management of blood sugar, or even reversal of type 2 diabetes, can be obtained with a low-carb, keto diet.”
The Arkansas Governor was on TV and what a wimp, what a freaking wimp.
When the beautiful Andrea Mitchell asked him was President Trump wrong to have that big rally, at first Hutchinson said, at first, “no. It was an outside event.”
The gorgeous Mitchell then said that there was no social distancing at the Rushmore rally and the brave and testosterone fueled Hutchinson said he would never allow such an even in Arkansas.
Another one became a wimp.....a Republican.
These are the guys representing us!
What’s between their legs?
AIR!!!!
I think this COVIS is very much like common cold, flu, and mono.
You contract the virus, fell real crappy for a while, then you regain good health.
On the other hand, if you have high blood pressure, diabetes, immune system issues, you WILL struggle.
But not at much as it exacerbated hospitals, who were essentially shut down to most other business, to declare totally unrelated deaths as "bat-flu" deaths, and collect the CDC death-bounty in order to pay the bills. Thus seriously cooking the books by hyperinflating the numbers.
Even automobile deaths were now classified as covid deaths,always follow the money.
Even gunshot victims.
and finally:
Yeah for sure and even those stats are fakes.
In my town, same thing happened with the fireworks, and a neighbor was a major contributor to the celebration. It was TOTALLY awesome.
But my little pooch, like yours, absolutely HATES fireworks, and for days after the 4th and New Year’s eve, does NOT want to leave the house to do his business. So last year I got some Acepromazinr—a sedative-type med—from my vet, and it REALLY helps keep my little guy calm and much less afraid to go outside. He is now, after his walk, resting peacefully curled up in a blanket on the couch.
I’m getting up there in years.
And NEVER in my life do I remember a virus turning into a political tool.
These Sunday shows are getting worse each week, now they are
little more than ANTIFA shows, by and for the AntiFaCrats.
Testing is such a joke, ever had the flu—you are positive,ever had a common cold==you are positive,no telling what else shows up as well,what a joke.
Ironically,the more they test the more they show the death rate is almost non-existent.
Sharyll Attkisson will be interviewing Mark Levin.
All of a sudden very Republican areas, states where President Trump plans to hold rallies in the near future, are all spiking in virus cases although death rates and hospital patients with the virus has not increased and indeed, in many cases has decreased.
It's not clear whether the so-called increase in cases is because of more tests administered, multiple tests given to the same person but counted as individual cases or just outright manipulated.
Yesterday there were just 254 deaths nationally, the lowest since March 24. Increased testing is the primary reason we have more cases and the good news is that it is mostly among younger people, who have a far lower fatality rate. 43% of all deaths have occurred in nursing homes.
We have tested close to 40 million people, more than 10% of the population. Compare that to the generic flu, which tests less than 1% of the population. CDC estimated that 36 million people got the flu in 2018-19, but received no medical treatment. I agree that figures are being manipulated, but that only goes so far. Check out the chart below on hospitalizations for Covid versus the generic flu. Notice that the hospitalizations for those under 18 for Covid are far less than the generic flu.
Persons hospitalized per 100,000. Covid-19 surveillance through the Emerging Infections Program (EIP) as lab-confirmed hospitalizations in participating hospitals/counties/states vs. Flu-confirmed hospitalizations in the same program (2017-20 flu seasons).
Another factor is the spread of Covid in Mexico, which has 30,366 deaths, fifth highest in the world. Mexico is 9th in terms of the number of confirmed cases. How much does that contribute to the rise in cases in CA, AZ, and TX? The border is still far from secure and Mexicans have been coming into the US seeking treatment, which is woeful in Mexico.
As long as we don't have a major uptick in deaths, there is no real reason for concern. Hospitalizations and ICU usage are not overwhelming the system. Most new cases are asymptomatic. IMO let the virus spread and protect the vulnerable. Herd immunity will follow. The virus is too widespread to do contact tracing. If government is silent on 15 million to 20 million protestors in the streets, how can they be taken seriously on lockdowns and social distancing. It is all political.
I’ll check it later if I get time....
