Media attempt to keep Chinese flu front and center because they think it helps Biden.

Well, they already have a juvenile curfew in place in Chicago and the gangs ignore that.

Just what kind of “science” are these nitwits basing the six people, certain times of the day restrictions and so forth on? I think the science of using a Ouija board. What pathetic “leaders”. I bet on lightfoot’s home world things are really f’d up.

A useless statistic is deciding the day-to-day fate of people throught the globe. Time for Republicans to come right out and say that enough is enough.

My town, Austin, Texas, is in its own stuck-on-stupid coma, too. Just so ya know I’m not singling out Chicago.

Why not close at 9, or 8, or 7? More lives would be saved, wouldn’t they?

Because COVID is more dangerous after 10 pm? I’m so confused on the reasoning behind this.

This was never about public health.

My ancestors would have been going for their muskets by now.
