Wow! ‘Newspeak’ allowed this to go to print?

Well said, Mr. DeMint. My feelings, exactly.

“What I’ll always remember is the hysteria, the bullying, the lying and the devastating pain caused by all of the above.”

What I’ll always remember is how so many of my neighbors gleefully tossed aside their unalienable rights, and demanded that others do the same.

Yep. Freedom died right here on this forum. I noticed that the graphs and charts have stopped. That all the Freepers crying outside hysterically about the case fatality rates, trusting the experts, the need for safety, and etc. have stopped.

Can it now be said that the FluBros. were right?

I don’t have to remember it; they’re still doing it...

Overnight, Democratic governors and mayors declaring unprecedented emergencies and issuing arbitrary edicts for their communities.

So what's the excuse for the Republican governors shutting down their states after we've had months of experience with the virus?

You wouldn't be just a partisan hack, would you Jim?

"As a DNC Governor, we get money for nothing,
and all the chicks we want for free;
and we can kill all the conservative elderly we want -
without any accountability."

Shouldn’t a leader accept responsibility for their bow to Pelosi. He led the country to cancel Easter and wasn’t even close to done. Wait, he is busy outspending obama.
We then we led by gorsch into a ruling that can empower the drunk with power to imprison Christians.
Watching the Patriot this weekend. Americans burned alive locked inside a church, for opposing tyranny.
I fully believe that can happen here.
Losing this much freedom under a Republican.. be prepared, this is only the beginning.

Newsweek!?

My thoughts also. And yet amid the liberal activism is another good Newsweek article: Why Black Lives Don't Matter to 'Black Lives Matter' | Opinion Leo Terrell , Author, commentator and civil rights attorney

I've spent over 20 years as a civil rights attorney in California and I'm known for not taking a back seat to anyone on police misconduct cases. Remember Dwayne Nelson? The L.A. County Sheriff's Department hog-tied and suffocated him in a car. We won that case and put the rightful offenders in jail. Or Margaret Mitchell—the homeless woman who was shot and killed by the LAPD? We won that case too, and ultimately changed the national standard on how law enforcement handles mentally ill victims.

And yet, my commitment to justice and my substantial track record of putting racially driven criminals behind bars hasn't lent itself to returning calls that I've made, in reaching out to longtime colleagues and friends who were behind me every step of the way when I was on "their side." Furthermore, why am I only getting booked on "conservative" media outlets?

I'll tell you why: It's because I'm calling out the farce that is Black Lives Matter—and doing so loudly and proudly. Why? Because, this organization does not speak for me, as an African-American, and if you truly believe that Black lives DO matter, you should reconsider taking your cues from this group's self-serving agenda....

Where is the outrage for a Black three-year-old shot and killed in the car? Where is the outrage for a young Black teen girl shot and killed while watching TV in her home? Why isn't Black Lives Matter protesting these tragedies?...

With one recent executive order, President Trump accomplished more for police reform than the Obama/Biden administration did over all of its eight years in office.
