LIVE: President Trump and Members of the Coronavirus Task Force Hold News Conference 3/20/20
I prefer Pompeo’s experience in the US Army, head of the CIA, US Representative from Kansas, Secretary of State and a no-nonsense, fighting, hard ass, who takes no guff and who takes names and kicks ass.
Pence is a good man but is too nice and they’d walk all over him. He’d be as bad as GW Bush.
“Cannot ditch him now”
Yep, we are stuck with him. Even if you exclude him from the daily briefings they will exploit that. Maybe he can made to understand a destroyed economy will do more damage that the damn virus
At the beginning of each Q&A period he needs to make a statement:
1. Only serious questions will be entertained. All others will be ignored.
2. If a question has been answered earlier in the session it will not be answered again.
3. Questions with “a tone” will be ignored.
Thanks for the clip.. I missed that exchange.
Ur Welcome.
Hey, I also got a kick out of the three female harpy reporters who kept attacking President Trump after he took care of Peter Alexander. They ALL had lost their cool with their eyes buggng out, LOL.
President Trump trolls the press corps every time he holds a press conference , saying “The Chinese Virus.”
“...Npr, cnn and msnbc should be banned from the press room....”
Agreed, but let’s correct this a little bit: “..Npr, cnn and msnbc should be banned.”
let them submit written questions after the briefing. One question each. End of story. The press is free to ask in writing. Problem solved.
I like it!

We should all be using common sense and Trump has made some bold, necessary, and effective measures to stop the influx into America.
But I don’t get where the federal government thinks they can tell schools not to require standardized testing. Constitutionally schools are run by the state NOT the feds.
Anyone with half a brain should be very concerned about how the feds so easily exercise what are basically unconstitutional totalitarian powers. Yes, I know we are in a “National Emergency” but remember, although Trump is on the side of America, we are one election away from Mr. Wrong Guy using “national emergencies” and everything else to basally consolidate federal totalitarian powers and America as we know it disappears.
Again, yes, we have this virus thing, but people should notice the ease in which this federal government exercises sweeping powers.
Before firing off flaming replies, consider that the feds may not exercise such powers but we’ve reached the point where the feds have no problem exercising unconstitutional powers if the one(s) in charge see fit to do so.
What I’m talking about is making common sense moves here, but no need to panic, and the ease of implementing some of these measures should give the average American pause.
The Bad Guys are watching all of this and fully intend to use the same effective approached s to do what the left can’t wait to do - take America down.
As I’ve said, we should all be using common sense and Trump has made some bold and necessary measures to stop the influx into America. But we also need to remember, “The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.” Essentially, the feds are NOT your friend. They are the wolf guarding the hen-house but if the wolf has broken its chain, then the hens he’s supposed to be guarding are at risk.

Are you saying our President is about to approve Phase 3? Washington DC has had its first death. It will all get worse. They are now trying to figure out how to have Congress vote when they aren’t able to get together in one place. Two infected and almost 2 dozen in self quarantine, just to complicate matters.
I bet he’s real good to his mom.
One thing I have not heard from either President Trump or Dr. Fauci is the fact that China has 3 clinical trials going right now on whether high dose intravenous Vitamin C will save people who have progressed to the deadly acute respiratory syndrome. Those trials should be able to answer that question in only a few more weeks. There is plenty of low cost Vitamin C available throughout the country, but no drug company will make a bunch of money on C rather than on new drugs or vaccine.
Last night I spoke with my son who is about to leave for Afghanistan for months. He told me Google is blocking You-Tube videos about Chinese research on using high dosage Vitamin C to save people from the acute respiratory distress of serious Covid-19 infection. I thought he must be wrong, even though being in Special Forces he has access to information I do not. So, today I checked and found that indeed his information appears to be correct. This link provides information and links for further exploring the Covid-19 research efforts. However, I am quoting this article below the link for the critical censorship issue.
“News of vitamin C research for COVID-19 is being actively suppressed
Anyone saying that vitamin therapy can stop coronavirus is already being labeled as “promoting false information” and promulgating “fake news.” Even the sharing of verifiable news, and direct quotes from credentialed medical professionals, is being restricted or blocked on social media. You can see sequential examples of this phenomenon at my Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/themegavitaminman .
Indeed, the World Health Organization (WHO) has, literally, met with Google and Facebook and other media giants to stop the spread of what they declare to be wrong information. https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2020/02/14/facebook-google-amazon-met-with-who-to-talk-coronavirus-misinformation.html?__twitter_impression=true
Physician-directed, hospital-based administration of intravenous vitamin C has been marginalized or discredited. Scientific debate over COVID-19 appears to not be allowed.
Ironically, Facebook, blocking any significant users’ sharing of the news of approved vitamin therapy research, is itself blocked in China by the Chinese government. As for the internet, yes, China has it. And yes, it is censored. But, significantly, the Chinese government has not blocked this real news on how intravenous vitamin C will save lives in the COVID-19 epidemic. Here is the protocol as published in Chinese: http://orthomolecular.org/resources/omns/v16n11-chi.shtml
Medical orthodoxy obsessively focuses on searching for a vaccine and/or drug for coronavirus COVID-19). While they are looking for what would be fabulously profitable approaches, we have with vitamin C an existing, plausible, clinically demonstrated method to treat what coronavirus patients die from: severe acute respiratory syndrome, or pneumonia.
And it is available right now.”
I then proceeded to make several comments on a Covid-19 article provided at my aol email. Some included links to articles I had found regarding how to safely use Vitamin C medically as well as the above quote. Three hours later all but my first comment had been removed. And there was not even a notice that it had been removed as they do with nasty comments. My next research is to see what influence the drug companies and other part of the medical establishment have on the World Health Organization (WHO).
Standardized tests like College Boards are given at planned times. If people don’t take them it can affect admission to higher education. Was he suggesting postponing or temporarily suspending, or making this a new final rule?
Damn sick of this bullshit virus and how much liberty we have lost. Now they are taping off play parks
Flashback: January 26, 2020 - 07:00 AM EST:
Government health agency official: Coronavirus ‘isn’t something the American public need to worry about
Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), said Sunday the American public shouldn’t worry about the coronavirus outbreak in China.
“It’s a very, very low risk to the United States,” Fauci said during an interview with radio show host John Catsimatidis.

The feds scope of power is so far off the Constitutional chart, how can we call ourselves a Free Constitutional Republic?
I think we Patriots are going to have to fight (and pray) very hard (in faith) to recover our beloved Free Constitutional Republic. With the help of the Divine Providence of God Almighty, the impossible can happen.
NY City is and was unprepared for this crisis. Now they are whining for help and Playing the blame game. Historically it is required for city governments as large as NYC to have a contingent.
The press doesn’t appear to understand the people see right through them. We can tell when they’re trying to set Trump and others up by how they frame their questions.
