Most Americans can expect to get a cash payment of over $1,000 as part of the heaping $2 trillion coronavirus relief bill President Donald Trump signed on Friday to stimulate the faltering economy. The nonpartisan Tax Policy Center estimates that the free money will go to about 90% of U.S. households to help ease some of their financial pain from the pandemic, which has caused massive business shutdowns and layoffs and is making it tough for people to pay their rent, mortgages and other bills. When will I get my stimulus check? Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin has indicated taxpayers should...

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Sunday railed against Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) after she said President Trump's response to the coronavirus outbreak was having deadly consequences. "She's blaming the president of the United States for people dying because of the way he's led the country," Graham, a vocal Trump ally, said on Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures." "That's the most shameful, disgusting statement by any politician in modern history."Speaking earlier on CNN, Pelosi said Trump's lack of aggressive action was having severe effects throughout the United States. She said Trump's initial downplaying of the disease and his delay in coordinating...

Researchers at Stanford University have said their data shows the U.S. is on track for a much faster recovery than some health experts are predicting. One America's Pearson Sharp has more.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made the "most shameful, disgusting statement by any politician in modern history," a top Republican senator said on Sunday. Sen. Lindsey Graham, the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, chastised the California Democrat after she railed against President Trump's response to the coronavirus pandemic. Pelosi said, "His denial at the beginning was deadly," and as he "fiddles, people are dying" during an appearance on CNN's State of the Union.

RINGTOWN, Pa. - When Dan Wowak went to live alone in the wilds of Patagonia in 2016 for a chance to win a half-million dollars on reality television, he was allowed to bring 10 items. Toilet paper wasn't one of them. Wowak, a Mahanoy City native, did bring an ax and saw, a sleeping bag and a ferro rod, which you can strike to make sparks in just about any condition. He also chose fishing line and hooks, which proved invaluable. Over 51 days, he ate nothing but fish he caught in a lake: nine of them. "I lost 54...

... “Battelle is authorized to decontaminate up to 10,000 compatible N95 respirators per day, consistent with the data provided to FDA,” said an FDA letter Saturday to Jeff Rose, vice president of government relations at Battelle. Battelle and Ohio leaders want to go well beyond that limited number, however, to 80,000 face mask sterilizations a day, equipping providers on the front line of the fight against COVID-19. ...

Bishop Strickland Stands Alone Refuses to sign TX bishops' statement, exposing episcopal civil war on end-of-life care AUSTIN, Texas (ChurchMilitant.com) - A Texas prelate is breaking with fellow Lone Star State bishops, refusing to sign a statement that would strip hospital patients of their protections. His act has exposed a growing rift within the U.S. hierarchy over fundamental Catholic teaching on protecting life. Bishop Joseph Strickland of the diocese of Tyler won't back a declaration by the Texas Catholic Conference of Bishops (TCCB) that calls on Gov. Greg Abbott to lift penalties against healthcare rationing at hospitals amid the growing viral pandemic. In essence, the declaration would...

As the coronavirus pandemic closes schools, in some cases until September, American children this month met their new English, math, science and homeroom teachers: their iPads and their parents. Classes are going online, if they exist at all. The United States is embarking on a massive, months-long virtual-pedagogy experiment, and it is not likely to end well. Years of research shows that online schooling is ineffective — and that students suffer significant learning losses when they have a long break from school. Now they’re getting both, in a hastily arranged mess. And the kids who suffer most from the “summer...

FEMA guidelines stipulate that states are to be the first line of defense in emergencies and are expected to respond accordingly: Local governments are the first line of defense against emergencies and disasters and are primarily responsible for managing the response to and recovery from those events. At the local government level, the primary responsibility for protecting citizens belongs to local elected officials such as mayors, city councils, and boards of commissioners. When a local government receives warning that an emergency could be imminent, its first priority is to alert and warn citizens and take whatever actions are needed to...

This is kind of lengthy but even if you only read a few of the good deeds, it shows you the character of our president. Liz Crokin is known as a reliable journalist. Her focus the past few years, has been on pedophelia in Hollywood. - TRUMP DOES THE UNTHINKABLE. by Liz Crokin As an entertainment journalist, I've had the opportunity to cover Trump for over a decade, and in all my years covering him I've never heard anything negative about the man until he announced he was running for president. Keep in mind, I got paid a lot of...

Q is the result of the sacrifices and commitment of countless patriots to win back our captured country from the Deep State and achieve the transformation President Trump promised in this campaign video. President Trump has said the awakening of the public is key to this transformation.Q describes this awakening as follows: "The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding ‘mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of ‘group-think’), but,...

A REMNANT INTERVIEW: Bishop Athanasius Schneider on Church’s handling of Coronavirus ROME, March 27, 2020 — As the coronavirus continues to spread, Bishop Athanasius Schneider has urged priests to imitate Jesus the Good Shepherd and, for the sake of souls, even disobey the unjust orders of bishops whom he says are now behaving more like “civil bureaucrats” than “shepherds.”In a new interview on the Church’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic (see full text below), the auxiliary bishop of Saint Mary in Astana, Kazakhstan, said he believes the majority of Catholic bishops reacted “precipitously and out of panic in prohibiting all...

Funny parody of the Beach Boys' song.

President Trump announced he would not be imposing a quarantine on parts of the Northeast but would instead be issuing a travel advisory for the area.  Trump said earlier on Saturday that he was considering the idea of imposing a quarantine for the states of New York and New Jersey as well as some parts of Connecticut to help stop the spread of Wuhan coronavirus. New York is currently leading the nation as the epicenter of coronavirus cases. "I’m thinking about that right now," Trump told reporters on Saturday. "We might not have to do it, but there’s a possibility that...

The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts informed members of the National Symphony Orchestra that they would no longer be paid just hours after President Trump signed a $25 million taxpayer bailout for the cultural center, according to an email obtained by the Washington Free Beacon. Nearly 100 musicians will no longer receive paychecks after April 3, according to an email from the orchestra's Covid-19 Advisory Committee. "The Covid-19 Advisory Committee was broadsided today during our conversation with [Kennedy Center President] Deborah Rutter," the email says. "Ms. Rutter abruptly informed us today that the last paycheck for all...

In an appearance with Jake Tapper on CNN Sunday morning, despicable and depraved Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said this: Breaking911 @Breaking911 Pelosi: "As the president fiddles, people are dying" In response, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, appearing on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo, said this: “What she said, she’s blaming the president for people dying because of the way he’s led the country. That’s the most shameful disgusting statement by any politician in modern history. Let me tell you we’ve seen the best of America from our citizens helping each other, delivering groceries, having special shopping hours for senior...

Yesterday, Howard Portnoy wrote about a snag presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden encountered during an interview with CNN’s Anderson Cooper. When asked about his former boss’s role in the current shortage of N95 masks, Biden claimed, “I wasn’t a part of it.” This protestation of innocence would be a little easier to stomach if the former vice president hadn’t cultivated the silly habit of referring on the campaign trail to the previous administration as the “Obama-Biden administration.” But it turns out that Biden’s denial was not the only rough patch he encountered during the interview. He also ran afoul of a best...
