Our pastor did a prophesy update that could have been given right off this thread. Brought in the Gates Foundation, China and the entire pandemic conspiracy. He was amazing. If you want to hear it he goes for about an hour.
Look for prophesy update:

So as we see the game right now is to get us to concentrate on the virus itself not on those responsible for creating it. It the vaccine/pill makers are successful in diverting our attention from them onto the virus alone they will win we will lose.

Wow, I believe every word...and remember, Gates stepped down from Microsoft board around this same time...I guess he just has his retirement gig all lined up.
Futball is back - no audience in the stands but at least I get to watch the Bundesligua where as the EPL are a bunch of Nancy boys hiding from the Corona without the Limes
The other relay great item I saw on Maria's show was a very good NAZI/COMMIE propaganda display by Her Groupenfurer Wilhem De Blasio.
His presentation defending the V For Victory of the Proletariat was very good. - The people who are unable / unwilling to think on their own, The GroupenFurer was on his game and easily fooled the Kulaks
I have heard he already has a huge office full of lawsuits with more on the way,deservedly so.
Heh.. Loved his Snark this Sunday morning!!
Maria ripped big bird to shreds!
Once everyone is tested they will claim now test them again. It's a never ending con. Plus some of the testing kits were defective.
A while ago, Joe Scarborough attempted to discredit Sen Kennedy because of his accent. Called him “someone right out of Deliverance”.
Sen Kennedy is a graduate, with high honors from Magdalen College, University of Virginia School of Law, University of Oxford,and Vanderbilt University. He has written numerous books and articles. He also has a simply wicked sense of humor, which is sorely needed these days.
Scarborough never apologized to this very fine Southern senator, despite getting a lot of blow-back from people on social media.
Joe had made a career out of smearing POTUS. He makes a point out of saying POTUS has been married 3 times. Well, so has he!
Joe is currently having a meltdown because POTUS keeps bringing up the dead intern in Joe’s office.
No kidding!!
Had to turn off my TV because hearing what he was saying about “keeping his city safe” made me want to slap him repeatedly across his smUGLY smirking face!!
I went to college with Joe at the University of Alabama. He was making fun of people’s accents then, too.
And they tend to find dead girls in his office.
Every guest the drivebys have are all designed to destroy the economy and go after Trump. He’s all bad and economy is getting worse only thing that will help is more govt. spending.It’s all BS.govt.,the bigger the better, is always the solution for the hard left.
Gary Cohn? What’s he doing back in the picture?
I have to keep reminding myself Justice Will Prevail.
In a study of elderly Americans who moved to a nursing home for their final months or years of life, 65 percent died there within one year, according to an investigation by researchers at the San Francisco VA Medical Center and the University of California, San Francisco.
In the study, which appears in the online Early View section of the “Journal of the American Geriatrics Society,” the researchers found that length of stay before death in a nursing home was associated with differences in gender, net worth, and marital status.
Men had shorter lengths of stay before death than women, residents with higher net worth had shorter lengths of stay than those with lower net worth, and residents who were married or otherwise partnered had shorter lengths of stay before death than those who were single, says lead author Anne Kelly, MSW, a social worker at SFVAMC.
“It’s a matter of resources. People with more access to care and resources were able to stay in the community for longer before moving to a nursing home than those with less access,” explains Kelly. “One reason that men had shorter stays before death than women might be that women tend to outlive men, and so by the time a woman moves to a nursing home her partner is more likely to have died, whereas men are more likely to have a spouse or partner to care for them at home through the end of life.”
The association between social support and length of stay before death has broad social implications, says senior author Alexander K. Smith, MD, MS, MPH, a palliative medicine physician at SFVAMC and an assistant professor of medicine in the Division of Geriatrics at the University of California, San Francisco.
“One quarter of all deaths in the United States occur in nursing homes, and that figure is expected to rise to 40 percent by the year 2020,” says Smith. “At the same time, we know that nursing home care is incredibly expensive. This study suggests that if we can provide greater social support for patients who are less wealthy and have less caregiver support at home, we may be able to keep them out of nursing homes longer, which would probably have an impact on costs of care at the end of life.”
Smith describes the average and median length of stay before death as “surprisingly brief.” The implication, he says, is that “we need to engage nursing home residents in planning conversations about end-of-life care and treatment preferences very soon after they are admitted. We have only a brief amount of time to address their concerns before they become seriously ill.”
For the study, the authors analyzed data on 1,817 nursing home residents who died between 1992 and 2006. The residents were participants in the Health and Retirement Study, an ongoing nationally representative longitudinal study of health, retirement, and aging sponsored by the National Institute on Aging.
The average age of participants when they moved to a nursing home was about 83. The average length of stay before death was 13.7 months, while the median was five months. Fifty-three percent of nursing home residents in the study died within six months.
Men died after a median stay of three months, while women died after a median stay of eight months. Married participants died a median four months sooner than those who were unmarried. Participants in the highest quartile of net worth died a median six months sooner than those in the lowest quartile.
The differences in length of stay remained after the researchers adjusted for age, gender, marital status, health status, and other factors.
Smith cautions that the study did not examine quality of life for the nursing home residents in the study, or relate quality of life to length of stay, because those variables were not available to the study authors.
Co-authors of the study are Jessamyn Conell-Price, BA, of UCSF and Kenneth Covinsky, MD, MPH, Irena Stijacic Cenzer, MA, Anna Chang, MD, and W. John Boscardin, PhD, of SFVAMC and UCSF.
The study was supported by funds from the National Institute on Aging, the UCSF Clinical and Translational Science Institute, and the National Palliative Care Research Center. Some of the funds were administered by the Northern California Institute for Research and Education.
Peter Navarro is outstanding.
We need the rallys to begin again. Nothing better to show what and who our potus really is. a man of the people and then some.!!
The dramatic difference between median length of stay in the nursing home before death and the average length of stay before death is probably influenced by the smaller number of people who live for many many years in a nursing home situation.
Trump should have been on top of the statistics long before now. Had he had his own modelers showing the comprehensive effects of a prospective shutdown, we might have avoided being where we are right now.
His task force could and should have randomized tests as well. Lots of data could have “Trumped” the purposely bad and limited CDC spewing.
