COVID-19 immunity clause sets dangerous stage for citizens
The government has exempted itself and all its willing COVID-19 product-developing partners from any sort of liability for mistakes, misconceptions, misunderstandings about proper usage -- from anything that could come back to bite. In other words, for the little guy, the private citizen: There's no means of suing. Published May 28, 2020
Anthony Fauci as skilled a politician as they come
Anthony Fauci, the director of the National of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and a member of the White House's coronavirus task force, said in a recent Senate panel that when it comes to giving COVID-19 direction, he's all medicine and science, all the time -- zero politics, zero economics. What a crock of crock. Published May 27, 2020
Ralph Northam and his banana republic face mask mandate
Gov. Ralph Northam issued an order from his governor's mansion in Virginia requiring individuals to wear face masks as a condition of entering any enclosed space. But boy, what a monkey-like, banana republic gymnastic jump over rule of law he did. And if not rule of law -- certainly, spirit of law. Published May 27, 2020
CDC, Democrats, leftists go full-steam communist on contact tracing
Beware the contact tracing. The government wants it believed contact tracing is nothing but a simple friendly means of making sure Americans are protected from COVID-19, both now and in the future. But really, it's a frightening tracking and surveillance program that gives government near-total control of citizens. Published May 26, 2020
Tough love for Donald Trump on COVID-19
On MAGA, on America First principles, Trump hasn't disappointed. Then came the coronavirus. And the mighty Trump has stumbled, taking with him an entire nation of suffering Americans -- minus the hand-rubbing gleeful Democrats using COVID-19 to best political advantage, of course. America needs Trump to be Trump. Published May 23, 2020
Anthony Fauci and his not-so-true claim about ‘safe’ COVID-19 vaccine
Anthony Fauci told NPR in a one-on-one interview that it was "conceivable" America could start to produce for consumer use a "safe" and "effective" vaccine for the coronavirus by year's end. That's absurd. Absurd and false. Americans concerned about their health should consider staying away from this shot. Published May 22, 2020
Mississippi church burning a disgusting, dangerous act of COVID-19 fear
A Mississippi church fighting to reopen amid COVID-19 crackdowns has been burned to the ground, an apparent product of arson. A message found by investigators at the scene read, "Bet you stay home now you hypokrits." This is what happens when a population is driven by fear, not reason. Published May 22, 2020
Coronavirus overkill, as stats, new facts belie panic
The more Americans learn about the science and medical expertise behind the shut-down, the more it becomes evident: the scientists and medical experts hardly deserve the platform they've been given. They're "experts," with an asterisk. Published May 21, 2020
COVID-19 is just the beginning
A memo from the Pentagon that was just leaked warns that Department of Defense officials have been quietly working on the assumption that COVID-19 could be a factor on America's economy and political fronts until, get this, well into 2021. Yawn. No kidding. You don't say. Published May 21, 2020
Microsoft debuts supercomputer to create human-like A.I.
Microsoft announced it has built a new supercomputer that will be used to train artificial intelligence models -- meaning, develop new technology with human-like capacity. Making humans out of machines: it's been the dream of the mad A.I. scientists from day one. Published May 20, 2020
Coronavirus debt enslaving America’s youth
COVID-19 has proven costly -- and not just medically speaking. The debt America is pushing on to the coming generations is unsustainable, nearing the point of enslavement. These trillions of dollars, after all, do not grow on trees. Published May 19, 2020
Churches, quit waiting for government permission
Why are churches waiting for government permission? Show some gumption. If the concern is the coronavirus -- well, perhaps that's a failure of faith. For that, read Numbers, about Moses and the snake. But if the concern is the government, to include police -- well, perhaps that's a failure to put God first. That's a failure of fear.

America’s scarily sharp COVID-19 turn toward socialism
This is red-flag-waving, alarm-call-clanging, sound-the-troops-and-play-the-trumpet warning time for freedom-loving Americans. The chance for socialism to spread its rot, using COVID-19 as cause, is real. Published May 16, 2020
Tea Party Patriots’ 20% pay cut for Congress a grand old COVID-19 scheme
If American workers have to be out of work, furloughed, stuck at home, all due to the coronavirus crisis -- then so, too, should members of Congress: That's the line of logic being pushed by the Tea Party Patriots. And it's good logic, too. Public servants shouldn't be allowed special rights, above and beyond those of their employers. Published May 15, 2020
Rand Paul delivers a magnificent reality smack to Anthony Fauci
Sen. Rand Paul delivered a much-needed, long overdue reality check to Dr. Anthony Fauci, the White House's COVID-19 whisperer, reminding the NIAID director that hey now, hey guy, you're just a guy, and your expertise on viruses shouldn't be taken as expertise on politics, government, economics, policy or the running of a nation.

Wisconsin high court kicks stay-at-home orders to curb, paving way for other states to do same
The Wisconsin Supreme Court struck down the state's stay-at-home orders, saying the heath secretary's use of the coronavirus to confine free citizens to their residences was "unlawful, invalid and unenforceable." Finally. A moment of sanity among the barrage of insane unconstitutional acts that have swept this nation. Published May 14, 2020
Anthony Fauci needs to get off national stage
Enough of Dr. Anthony Fauci. In widely reported remarks, Fauci, in an email to The New York Times that he was going to tell senators, in his upcoming hearing on the coronavirus that, basically: If America doesn't listen to me, people will die. Fauci, the prophet scientist? Published May 12, 2020
H.R. 6666 a devil of a COVID-19 government surveillance plot
A House resolution from Illinois Democrat Rep. Bobby Rush that would put Big Government in charge of tracking citizens' movements as they relate to COVID-19 mitigation efforts -- even sending health bureaucrats to "individuals' residences," "as necessary," as the legislation states -- has a most apt number: 6666.

Pastor fights ‘tyranny’ of COVID-19 church crackdowns
A pastor in Worcester, Massachusetts, has been fined $300, has been issued a criminal complaint by city officials and has been put on notice that he may very well serve time behind bars -- all for the "crime" of defying the governor's 10-person limit order and holding normal Sunday worship services. You go, pastor. Published May 11, 2020
COVID-19 puts spotlight on science — but scientists often lie
We can beat COVID-19 -- just trust the science, we're told. Trust in the scientists, we're told. Well and good. Fine and dandy. But fact is, scientists often lie. Science isn't always the beacon toward truth. It's not just frequently flawed; it's frequently deceptive. And purposely so. Published May 9, 2020
