South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham just tore the Democrats to pieces over their attempt to hijack the coranavirus relief bill .
During a speech on the Senate floor he ripped into them “ You see this is an opportunity to do things you couldn ’ t do otherwise .
Republicans see this is an opportunity to do things that have to be done now to save lives.
” “ I have never been more disgusted since Kavanaugh , ” Graham added .
“ You tried to destroy a good man ’ s life just to keep the seat open.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the House have publicly said this is an opportunity to reshape the country and our image.
” Graham then got to the point “ It ’ s not going to happen .
We wouldn ’ t let you destroy Brett Kavanaugh ’ s life to keep the seat open , and we ’ re not going to let you turn the country upside down to shape it in your image.
” “ We will work with you in a very generous fashion to help people who ’ ve lost their jobs , help @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out of supplies.
” “ Shame on you .
Shame on you for coming in at eleventh hour , taking good faith negotiations and throwing them in an ideological ditch , ” Graham added , the remark mostly directed at Pelosi and Schumer .
Graham then directed an appeal to the American people “ because what they ’ re wanting to do should make you mad as hell .
If you ’ ve got a family member who are suffering , do you really think now is the time to impose same-day voting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you but I am mad as hell about what the bottom dwelling scum sucking Democrats are trying to do here .

EVANSVILLE, Ind., March 24 (UPI) -- China in the last week made several large purchases of American grain, sparking hope in the farming sector that the nation intends to make good on its promise to buy billions of dollars worth of U.S. agricultural products this year, industry groups say. "It is great to see China back in the market," said Ryan LeGrand, the president and CEO of the Washington, D.C.-based U.S. Grains Council, a trade group that represents corn, sorghum, barely, distillers grain and ethanol.

On Friday, the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced China also bought about 340,000 metric tons of wheat.
These are the largest single purchases of wheat and sorghum China has made since imposing high retaliatory tariffs on U.S. farm goods in summer 2018, the groups say.
"The market has been waiting for this," said Steve Mercer, a spokesman for U.S. Wheat Associates, a trade organization for the wheat industry based in Arlington, Va. "We'll see where it goes."

Following the purchase, the price for wheat spiked from under $5 per bushel to more than $5.50, according to Chicago Mercantile Exchange figures.
The three crops are grown across the United States.
Wheat is grown in several regions, including North Dakota, Kansas and Oklahoma, and Washington state. Sorghum is grown mostly in Kansas, with fields appearing in many other states. And corn -- America's largest crop according to USDA -- is grown across the Midwest and Great Plains.
Concern arose earlier in the year that the coronavirus pandemic in China would hamper the nation's ability to buy an agreed-to $80 billion in agricultural products over the next two years, according to phase one of the trade deal with the United States.
In an effort to halt the virus spread, China closed businesses and quarantined individuals. Shipping ports backed up as workers stayed home.
In the last weeks, as the number of new coronavirus cases dropped in China, officials have eased travel and quarantine restrictions, and people are returning to work.
"Our team on the ground in China is kind of getting back to normal," said Jim Sutter, CEO of the U.S. Soybean Export Council, a trade group based in Chesterfield, Mo. "People there are going back to work. They are ramping up production again. Demand is pretty good in China."

President Donald Trump on March 23 signed an executive order to prevent the price gouging and hoarding of “critical supplies” needed to combat the CCP virus outbreak.
The Epoch Times refers to the novel coronavirus, which causes the disease COVID-19, as the CCP virus because the Chinese Communist Party’s coverup and mismanagement of the outbreak in Wuhan allowed the virus to spread across China and fan a global pandemic.
“We have some people hoarding. We want to prevent price gouging and critical resources are going to be protected in every form,” Trump said at a press conference on Monday.
The White House said that the president is authorized under the Defense Production Act to prohibit the hoarding of needed resources.
“This sends a strong message,” White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham wrote on Twitter. “We will not let those hoarding vital supplies & price gougers to harm the health of America in this hour of need.”
Attorney General William Barr emphasized that individuals who stockpile essential supplies will not be the target of the presidential action, but those who hoard items to sell with hiked up prices are, and may be subject to investigation.
“If you have a big supply of toilet paper in your house, this is not something you have to worry about, but if you are sitting on a warehouse with surgical masks, you’ll be hearing a knock on your door,” he said.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has now been granted the authority to determine which items are prohibited for sale in “unnecessary quantities” above the fair market value in light of the new hoarding rules.
The HHS will work with the Department of Justice to enforce the measure where hoarding may be impeding the supply of health and medical resources that are needed to combat the spread of the virus, the White House said. The items have not yet been designated.
The measure aims to ensure that hospitals, first-responders, and doctors have sufficient supplies of critical medical equipment, including personal protective equipment and sanitizing and disinfecting products.
“By limiting access to these critical resources, those who engage in hoarding and price gouging could put both our medical workers and the health of the American people at risk,” the White House said. “All Americans must come together to help one another during this time and help combat the outbreak.”
The New York attorney general office told The Epoch Times last week that it had received dozens of complaints about price gouging for masks, hand sanitizers, and disinfectant sprays.

thelibertydaily--2020-03-24--If It Saves Even One Life, It’s Totally Worth It?

As deaths from the Xi Flu mount in the U.S. , the media keeps announcing them as if it ’ s absolutely the end of the world .
I have no idea what we ’ ll be up to by the time this article goes up , but I ’ d guess probably around 500 or a little under .
And sure , it ’ s easy to get panicked by that .
Five hundred is a lot of dead people .
If you tell people on social media that yeah , it ’ s a big number , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ – as the number of annual flu deaths in the U.S. , you ’ re going to get called a monster , asked what if this person were your spouse , your mother or your child , and told that all these measures , and destroying our economy , are completely worth it , if we ‘ save even one life.
’ But the problem is that you can ’ t save that one life .
Not forever .
If we were an immortal species , which only dies under unusual circumstances , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or when we contract a flu that crossed the species barrier because someone in Wuhan , China , needed him ( or her ) some yummy bat soup , then the “ if it saves just one death ” part would be completely justified .
As it is , though , we all die , sooner or later .
At most , death-like taxes this year might be postponed .
And given the average age of the people dying of the Xi-Flu , the truth is that if they don ’ t die @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the next epidemic cold or flu ( btw , did you know China now seems to have an outbreak of a new bird flu ? )
that comes near them .
It ’ s terrible , but it is also part of the human condition .
The truth is that while the media tries to stampede us with constant harping on the percentage of people who die of China virus , we in fact do not know what it is and have reason to suspect it ’ s markedly lower .
Why ?
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ know the total number of people who are infected with the virus , particularly since it ’ s possible the virus was in the U.S. in early December ; it was in China and recognized by mid-November .
( Note the first confirmed case was almost certainly not patient zero .
And there was chatter about a weird virus in China from October on . )
Also , given what we know from various studies , like the one linked above , or the one in Iceland , most people who get infected @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Given those two conditions , we can ’ t tell how many people in the population have the virus .
Right now we ’ re only testing for active cases ( not antibodies ) and we ’ re only testing those people who show symptoms strong enough to go to the doctor ( you need a doctor 's note to get a test . )
Which won ’ t include the potentially vast number of very mild or no-symptoms cases .
Keep that in mind when you hear the scary , scary @ @ @ @ @ @ @ morning March 23 , 2020 , are 34,754 active cases ( i.e .
people who were sick enough to get a note from their doctor and be tested for the China Virus ) and 471 deaths , which is around ( it ’ s early and I refuse to do math ) 1.5 % mortality .
But again , this is from people sick enough to look for help , not from the—estimating from the Diamond Princess , because a controlled experiment—80 % of people who simply shrug this off .
Now both @ @ @ @ @ @ @ number of deaths are going to go up , as more tests become available .
And knowing our media , they ’ ll report being infected as a death sentence .
Which it is not .
The highest mortality rate is in the 80+ age range , with significant comorbidities and even that isn ’ t precisely 100 % .
In fact , it ’ s around 10 % .
Horrible of course , but not a death sentence .
But , you ’ ll say , what if it were your grandmother @ @ @ @ @ @ @ put everyone under lockdown and extreme emergency measures and destroy the economy to save your grandmother ?
My personal grandmother , if she were still alive , and they told me I ’ d need to kill all of you in batch lots to keep her alive – and get to have tea with her – one more day ?
Let ’ s just say I ’ d prefer not to be tempted .
However , that doesn ’ t make it a good idea .
Because by sacrificing our wealth , we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for other grandmothers in the future .
Absent in the barrage the media is blasting at people is that part of the reason for the triage – known as letting people die – in Italy is the lack of money for the medical system .
Now , part of this is because it ’ s government-run , part is because the Italian economy has been sinking for several years .
Which means that by destroying the economy we ’ re condemning a lot of grandmas to death .
( And that ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ illness . )
But let ’ s say – for the sake of argument – we take the left ’ s idea that it ’ s worth putting everyone on lockdown to avoid one death .
Well , guys , we ’ re in trouble now .
Because the number of people who die in the U.S. every year from the strangest things is through the roof .
First of all let ’ s get the annual flu deaths from an average flu year in the U.S. , from a site at random @ @ @ @ @ @ @ deaths year-wise , you will find a vast variation with a low of 3,349 deaths during the flu season of 1986-87 to a high of 48,614 in 2003-04 .
For this season this is the current estimate : Which is probably also a low estimate on how many people had it , because at least for me , the normal answer to calling my doctor and telling them I have the flu is “ You probably do .
Don ’ t come in.
” Now , with those numbers putting the COVID-Sars-Wuhan flu @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at other ways to die that don ’ t seem to make our media run around with their hair on fire : There are 60 people per year killed by an animal in the U.S .
Yes , I know those are rookie numbers , but it ’ s obvious that we must from now on destroy every animal in our near vicinity .
Bonus , we ’ ll make Alexandria Occasional-Cortex happy by not eating cow .
For instance , we ’ re told that 100,000 people a year die of air @ @ @ @ @ @ @ means that the Chinese , the Indians , and the people in the place where I grew up , including myself , are already dead , since air quality is and was markedly worse in most of the world ) .
Obviously this means no one is ever to go without a filtered mask , not even in the privacy of their own homes .
Neighbors and children are encouraged to denounce those who refuse to do this .
No exceptions .
If it saves only one life , it ’ s worth @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
How do you dare oppose it , you monster ?
And let ’ s not forget that in 2005-2014 there were an average of 3,536 fatal unintentional drownings ( non-boating related ) annually in the United States .
Unlike Cov-Sar-China virus , this scourge falls disproportionately on those under 14 , who have their entire lives ahead of them and are of economic importance for the future , at least if you expect anyone to pay for the panic insanity of 2020 .
That means they must be saved .
Fortunately , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ levels of government must ensure that all Americans wear a lifejacket at all times , even in bed , because the ground could open under your house and drop you into a long-forgotten underground river .
If it saves even one life !
You ’ ll sleep with filter-mask and lifejacket on and like it .
Also , since some percentage of these deaths are in the bathtub , these appliances shall now be ripped from every home .
Apparently 3655 people died from fires in the U.S. in 2018 .
Weirdly the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fires is smoking , not greenies deciding you can ’ t take dried and dead wood out of forests .
That was a surprise !
Also , not global warming .
Another surprise .
Anyway , even if you don ’ t smoke , you can get fires started by using fire for cooking .
Or by using electricity – one of our supposed surge-prevention strips caught fire last week and we were lucky it didn ’ t burn the house down – so the only possible approach to preventing all those potential @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not henceforth allowed to use fire or any electricity in the home .
Who knew North Korea was a trendsetter and even they didn ’ t go far enough ?
At this point , you ’ re asking how you ’ re going to cook , but don ’ t worry , because you ’ re not .
In the US , 48 million people get sick , 128,000 are hospitalized , and 3,000 die from foodborne diseases every year , according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention .
And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ So , it turns out that you mugs can ’ t actually be trusted to cook your own food and eat without killing yourselves .
From now on food will be distributed by government dieticians who will first sanitize it by spraying it with disinfectant .
Apparently , more than 27,000 falls led to death in 2014 , out of 800,000 falls that led to injury .
Like the China virus , this cruel harbinger of doom falls disproportionately on the old and the enfeebled .
From now on EVERY American must wear @ @ @ @ @ @ @ catching rods and buffers in case they trip .
They will be followed by another American carrying pillows , in case they can ’ t avoid the fall , so they can cushion it .
es , that means Americans will do nothing but follow each other carrying pillows .
But hey , if it saves even one life , who are you to say it ’ s not worth it ?
What if it were your mother , you unfeeling savage ?
The alternative is making everyone crawl on their belly so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ course .
So you see , in the interest of saving even one life , you will now have to crawl on your belly wearing a filter mask and a life preserve , and be handed your vegan ( all the animals being dead ) disinfectant-impregnated food .
( Yes , I do know disinfectant is usually poisonous .
But this is a government program , so that ’ s what you ’ ll get . )
And you ’ ll like it !
Because if it saves even one life , it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?

But the problem is that you can’t save that one life. Not forever.
If we were an immortal species, which only dies under unusual circumstances, say when we drop from buildings, or when we contract a flu that crossed the species barrier because someone in Wuhan, China, needed him (or her) some yummy bat soup, then the “if it saves just one death” part would be completely justified.
As it is, though, we all die, sooner or later. At most, death-like taxes this year might be postponed.

Absent in the barrage the media is blasting at people is that part of the reason for the triage – known as letting people die – in Italy is the lack of money for the medical system. Now, part of this is because it’s government-run, part is because the Italian economy has been sinking for several years.
Which means that by destroying the economy we’re condemning a lot of grandmas to death. (And that’s without taking into account how poverty increases illness.)
But let’s say – for the sake of argument – we take the left’s idea that it’s worth putting everyone on lockdown to avoid one death.
Well, guys, we’re in trouble now.
Because the number of people who die in the U.S. every year from the strangest things is through the roof.
First of all let’s get the annual flu deaths from an average flu year in the U.S., from a site at random.
If you take the number of deaths year-wise, you will find a vast variation with a low of 3,349 deaths during the flu season of 1986-87 to a high of 48,614 in 2003-04.
For this season this is the current estimate:
222,000 Positively Tested for Flu and 22,000 deaths
Which is probably also a low estimate on how many people had it, because at least for me, the normal answer to calling my doctor and telling them I have the flu is “You probably do. Don’t come in.”
Now, with those numbers putting the COVID-Sars-Wuhan flu in perspective, let’s look at other ways to die that don’t seem to make our media run around with their hair on fire:
There are 60 people per year killed by an animal in the U.S. Yes, I know those are rookie numbers, but it’s obvious that we must from now on destroy every animal in our near vicinity. Bonus, we’ll make Alexandria Occasional-Cortex happy by not eating cow.
For instance, we’re told that 100,000 people a year die of air pollution in the U.S. (which probably means that the Chinese, the Indians, and the people in the place where I grew up, including myself, are already dead, since air quality is and was markedly worse in most of the world).
Obviously this means no one is ever to go without a filtered mask, not even in the privacy of their own homes. Neighbors and children are encouraged to denounce those who refuse to do this. No exceptions. If it saves only one life, it’s worth it, much less 100 thousand lives. How do you dare oppose it, you monster?
And let’s not forget that in 2005-2014 there were an average of 3,536 fatal unintentional drownings (non-boating related) annually in the United States.
Unlike Cov-Sar-China virus, this scourge falls disproportionately on those under 14, who have their entire lives ahead of them and are of economic importance for the future, at least if you expect anyone to pay for the panic insanity of 2020.
That means they must be saved. Fortunately, the fix is relatively minor. All levels of government must ensure that all Americans wear a lifejacket at all times, even in bed, because the ground could open under your house and drop you into a long-forgotten underground river. If it saves even one life! You’ll sleep with filter-mask and lifejacket on and like it.
Also, since some percentage of these deaths are in the bathtub, these appliances shall now be ripped from every home.
Apparently 3655 people died from fires in the U.S. in 2018. Weirdly the site insists the leading cause of house fires is smoking, not greenies deciding you can’t take dried and dead wood out of forests. That was a surprise! Also, not global warming. Another surprise.
Anyway, even if you don’t smoke, you can get fires started by using fire for cooking. Or by using electricity – one of our supposed surge-prevention strips caught fire last week and we were lucky it didn’t burn the house down – so the only possible approach to preventing all those potential fire deaths is that you’re not henceforth allowed to use fire or any electricity in the home.

In the US, 48 million people get sick, 128,000 are hospitalized, and 3,000 die from foodborne diseases every year, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And food poisoning is actually getting worse.
So, it turns out that you mugs can’t actually be trusted to cook your own food and eat without killing yourselves. From now on food will be distributed by government dieticians who will first sanitize it by spraying it with disinfectant.
Apparently, more than 27,000 falls led to death in 2014, out of 800,000 falls that led to injury. Like the China virus, this cruel harbinger of doom falls disproportionately on the old and the enfeebled.
From now on EVERY American must wear a complex apparatus composed of stabilizing and catching rods and buffers in case they trip. They will be followed by another American carrying pillows, in case they can’t avoid the fall, so they can cushion it.
Y
es, that means Americans will do nothing but follow each other carrying pillows. But hey, if it saves even one life, who are you to say it’s not worth it? What if it were your mother, you unfeeling savage?
The alternative is making everyone crawl on their belly so they can’t fall, of course.
So you see, in the interest of saving even one life, you will now have to crawl on your belly wearing a filter mask and a life preserve, and be handed your vegan (all the animals being dead) disinfectant-impregnated food. (Yes, I do know disinfectant is usually poisonous. But this is a government program, so that’s what you’ll get.)
And you’ll like it! Because if it saves even one life, it’s totally worth it, right?

thelibertydaily--2020-03-24--Anti-Israel Fanatic Would Rather Be Infected By Coronavirus Than Be Protected By Israeli Vaccine

Here is one more example of the demented hatred of Israel that so many Muslims exhibit : A journalist for the Tehran regime ’ s official English-language mouthpiece was widely mocked online on Thursday after he said he would prefer getting the coronavirus over using an Israeli-produced preventative shot .
Roshan Salih — of Press TV — tweeted a Haaretz article about an expected announcement by an Israeli research center that it had developed a vaccine for the disease currently spreading around the world with the comment , “ I ’ d rather take my chances with the virus than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would be surprised – would you ?
– if the first successful vaccine against the coronavirus turned out to have been developed by an Israeli research center .
Tiny Israel punches far above its weight in so many different areas – in waste-water recycling and irrigation , in cyber security and drone technology , in new drugs and novel therapies , in heart and cancer treatments , in technological advances of every kind , that what comes out of these Israeli research centers no longer surprises us .
Even now , before the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coming out of Israel , we have come to expect such achievements from the Start-Up Nation .
And even in the Arab and Muslim countries , people who have been raised to hate Israel and the Zionists would not be surprised if a coronavirus vaccine were to first be produced in Israel .
And most would be glad to use it , though without any gratitude to the Israeli researchers .
So great is the hatred of Israel among some Muslims , however , that even if it were a matter of potentially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ own countries , or even likely to save their very own lives , they would refuse to use an Israeli-produced vaccine .
An example of that suicidal attitude is one Roshan Salih , a journalist who writes for PressTV , an English-language propaganda organ of the Iranian state .
After an article appeared about an Israeli research center that announced it was close to producing a coronavirus vaccine , Salih tweeted “ I ’ d rather take my chances with the virus than consume an Israeli vaccine.
” No doubt that same sentiment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ run Iran , especially by Ayatollah Khamenei , who , in any case , has dismissed the seriousness of the illness and whose regime has consistently pooh-poohed its danger and deliberately under-reported the incidence of the disease in Iran , which has led to great anger from the mass of Iranians , people who have ceased to trust their government , which has so mishandled other events , for example , by lying about its responsibility for shooting down a Ukrainian passenger jet , and failing to explain why , in a situation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not closed the airspace over Tehran to civilian planes in order to avoid precisely what happened : the mistaken identification of a passenger jet for an American bomber .
What must surely worry the mullahs are the new protests in the street against the regime .
This time the target for their fury is the mishandling of the coronavirus outbreak .
By failing to recognize the seriousness of the outbreak , the regime did not impress on the people the need for simple precautions such as frequent hand-washing and maintaining social distances .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ ban on large gatherings – including prayers in giant mosques , sports events , and political rallies .
It did not at the beginning of the outbreak in Iran distribute test kits .
For more than a month , as the number of cases and deaths inexorably rose , the Iranian government continued to under-report both .
Ayatollah Khamenei assured the populace that the danger would soon pass ; few believed him .
For weeks the government was still in a state of denial .
It did not shut down the city of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Iran .
Instead of closing down public sites , a measure that public-health experts have taken in other countries , the head of the shrine in Qom called on pilgrims to keep coming .
“ We consider this holy shrine to be a place of healing .
That means people should come here to heal from spiritual and physical diseases , ” Mohammad Saeedi , who is also the representative of Iran ’ s Supreme Leader in Qom , said in a video .
Cases traced back to Iran have been reported @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Canada , Georgia , Iraq , Kuwait , Lebanon , Oman , Pakistan , and the United Arab Emirates .
Many of these cases have been linked specifically to visits to Qom .
Even today , the city of Qom has not been shut down ; the pilgrims keep traveling in and out of Qom , with many returning , after study or worship in Qom , to their homes around the Middle East .
The Tehran regime has been ruthless in everything except where it could do some good : shutting down @ @ @ @ @ @ @ China did in Wuhan Province , and the way the government of Italy has done by closing down the entire country , leaving only pharmacies and grocery stores open .
Iran ’ s government has done some things : it has halted an Islamic festival , sought to curb mass congregations of worshipers , and canceled Friday prayers in 23 cities across the country , including Qom .
But it has not shut down Qom altogether to travelers going in and out .
Some worshipers in Qom are pushing clerics to continue delivering @ @ @ @ @ @ @ site in the city , the Fatima Masumeh Shrine , insists it should remain open to visitors .
Even as high government officials , including the Deputy Minister of Health who had been put in charge of dealing with the outbreak , have come down with the coronavirus themselves , and some have died , Ayatollah Khamenei keeps downplaying the crisis , with official numbers always well under the real figures .
Now comes a well-known Iranian journalist for PressTV , in the midst of all this mishandling of the crisis by Iran @ @ @ @ @ @ @ too little too late , to declare in a tweet that he would rather risk getting the coronavirus than use a vaccine produced by Israelis .
This proud display of fanatical hatred did not win him the support he no doubt expected ; instead , replies to his tweet were nearly unanimous in either denouncing or mocking him .
These counter-tweets show that many people in Iran , despite the best efforts of the regime over the past 40 years , have refused to accept the murderous hatred of Israel displayed by Roshan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sign .
As for Roshan Salih himself , I ’ m sure many of us share the hope that if the Israelis do come up first with a coronavirus vaccine , he keeps his promise not to use it .

Here is one more example of the demented hatred of Israel that so many Muslims exhibit:

Roshan Salih — of Press TV — tweeted a Haaretz article about an expected announcement by an Israeli research center that it had developed a vaccine for the disease currently spreading around the world with the comment, “I’d rather take my chances with the virus than consume an Israeli vaccine.”
No one would be surprised – would you? – if the first successful vaccine against the coronavirus turned out to have been developed by an Israeli research center. Tiny Israel punches far above its weight in so many different areas – in waste-water recycling and irrigation, in cyber security and drone technology, in new drugs and novel therapies, in heart and cancer treatments, in technological advances of every kind, that what comes out of these Israeli research centers no longer surprises us. Even now, before the definitive announcement of such a coronavirus vaccine coming out of Israel, we have come to expect such achievements from the Start-Up Nation.
And even in the Arab and Muslim countries, people who have been raised to hate Israel and the Zionists would not be surprised if a coronavirus vaccine were to first be produced in Israel. And most would be glad to use it, though without any gratitude to the Israeli researchers.
So great is the hatred of Israel among some Muslims, however, that even if it were a matter of potentially limiting the spread of coronavirus in their own countries, or even likely to save their very own lives, they would refuse to use an Israeli-produced vaccine.

Couple Attempted To Self-Medicate With Fish Tank Cleaner To Fight the Chi-Com Virus — Man Died And Wife Is In Critical Condition

I ’ m not always proud to be an Arizona native… and this story certainly doesn ’ t help change my mind .
This almost mirrors some Romeo and Juliet sh*t. An Arizona couple attempted to self-medicate when they confused a common fish aquarium cleaner for being as effective as the malaria drug that has been publicized .
They ingested this chemical compound , chloroquine phosphate , not realizing that the chemical is not intended for human ingestion , and the malaria drug that contains hydroxychloroquine functions differently in its projection to help coronavirus infections .
Unfortunately , the man @ @ @ @ @ @ @ currently in critical condition , both being in their 60s .
Banner Health , a non-profit hospital system based in Arizona , issued a statement urging the public against the use of inappropriate medications and household products to prevent or treat COVID-19 on Monday .
To emphasize the importance of the warning , officials disclosed a few details of what happened with an unnamed couple that ignored the advice and took their medical care into their own hands .
Banner Health experts emphasized that people should not take chloroquine under any circumstances unless @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
‘ Given the uncertainty around COVID-19 , we understand that people are trying to find new ways to prevent or treat this virus , but self-medicating is not the way to do so , ’ said Dr Daniel Brooks , Banner Poison and Drug Information Center medical director .
‘ The last thing that we want right now is to inundate our emergency departments with patients who believe they found a vague and risky solution that could potentially jeopardize their health.
’ For the love of all that is holy , don @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
I ’ m sad for the couple in regards to their efforts to save one another , but sheesh , don ’ t go around acting like you ’ re drug experts and drinking poison all willy-nilly because ‘ this looks like it could be close enough .

thelibertydaily--2020-03-24--Democrats Continue to Think That Black Voters are Stupid

by Raynard Jackson , For New Pittsburgh Courier Imagine that a firefighter saves you from a burning building .
Would you immediately call your family physician and thank him for saving your life ?
Of course not !
Imagine that President Trump just issued a pardon to your son to release him from prison .
Would you immediately call former President Barack Obama and thank him for freeing your son ?
Of course not !
Then why in the hell would former Vice President Joe Biden admit that the Black vote saved his presidential campaign and then immediately say that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be to pass a radical liberal homosexual agenda ?
He says it because Joe Biden has a 50-year history of telling Black folks what he thinks they want to hear while pushing policies that hurt the Black community .
Biden opposed affordable housing in DE when he served on the New Castle County Council in the early 1970s .
When he got to the U.S. Senate , he supported segregated schools in the mid-70s .
This led to his tough on crime legislation that he sponsored in the 80s and 90s .
Biden @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fools .
According to exit polls , Biden received 71 percent of the Black vote on Super Tuesday .
He won states like VA , NC , TN , and AL with huge support from the Black community .
In VA and AL , Biden won about 70 percent of the Black vote ; in NC and TN , Biden garnered around 50 percent of the Black vote .
When you go to Biden ’ s presidential campaign website , you can clearly see that his priority is not the Black community , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
His plan to force the radical liberal homosexual agenda on the American people consists of 8,132 words and 31 pages .
Now let ’ s juxtapose that with Biden ’ s plan for the Black community .
His plan for the Black community consists of only 1,274 words and 5 pages .
There is absolutely nothing in this plan that is “ specific ” to the Black community .
And to continue to prove that he thinks the Black voter is dumb , Biden snuck in a phrase that most people didn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , attention to .
He lumps in with the Black community “ people of color.
” Did you catch that ?
So , IF massa Biden decides to pass out any goodies to the Black community , they MUST be shared with Africans , Asians , Hispanics , Indians , etc .
But there is absolutely no accommodation made for Blacks under the radical liberal homosexual or Hispanic agenda !
Just because Biden has bought the endorsement of prominent Black names , not leaders , does not mean he has the support of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ election in the fall .
Herein lies an opportunity for the Republican Party to tap into disaffected Black voters .
Blacks are smart enough to realize that Democrats are merely mouthing words when they speak to them .
But Blacks don ’ t view the Republican Party as a viable option .
As one friend put it , Blacks support Republican principles ; they just hate the Republican Party .
So , how should Blacks view Joe Biden ?
When all is said and done , there ’ s more said than done @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Award nominated columnist and founder and chairman of Black Americans for a Better Future ( BAFBF ) .

Just because Biden has bought the endorsement of prominent Black names, not leaders, does not mean he has the support of the Black community heading into the general election in the fall.
Herein lies an opportunity for the Republican Party to tap into disaffected Black voters. Blacks are smart enough to realize that Democrats are merely mouthing words when they speak to them. But Blacks don’t view the Republican Party as a viable option.
As one friend put it, Blacks support Republican principles; they just hate the Republican Party.
So, how should Blacks view Joe Biden? When all is said and done, there’s more said than done.

thelibertydaily--2020-03-24--Biden and Sanders Are Both Offering Socialism

The Democrats , now a cult of assiduous navel-gazers—obsessed with gender , anxious about white privilege and tortured about the role of race in American history—are offering their voters a choice between a 78-year-old-socialist-white-man and a 77-year-old-white-man who will employ any ideological device in the pursuit of power .
One has been ideologically consistent , while the other has been consistently changing ideologies .
The two duked it out last week during the Democratic presidential debate .
Out of concern for their charges , the Democratic National Committee even allowed the elder statesmen to sit during the audience-free discussion .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ would occur .
The “ debate ” provided an opportunity for Sen. Bernie Sanders ( I-VT ) to lead former Vice President Joe Biden by the hand , further into the netherworld of leftist politics .
Sanders pushed and prodded Biden as he repudiated fracking , claimed he ’ d always been against the Hyde Amendment ( that prohibits federal funding for abortion ) , and that he had spent his political career fighting the mad dogs of corporate capitalism .
He was two wheezes shy of praising collective farming .
After castigating @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( ist ) policies and outrageous accusations about the United States .
In other words , last week ’ s debate sounded like every Democratic debate we ’ ve seen this election cycle : a cross between a Trotskyite plenary session and a university microaggression conference .
As the 2020 presidential election approaches , the Democrats have revealed themselves not as the party of diversity , not even a party of choice , but a party of socialism that is prepared to advance any crackpot theory of whim if it sounds sufficiently radical @ @ @ @ @ @ @ OLD , WHITE ) MAN Despite all the moaning about Sen. Elizabeth Warren being forced out of the contest because of conscious or unconscious sexism , the mainstream media has chronically neglected Rep. Tulsi Gabbard ’ s ( D-Hawaii ) presence in the race .
She was always just too normal , too centrist , too willing to appear on Fox News and too traditionally Democratic to validate .
Gabbard called out the Democrats for their “ hypocrisy ” on sexism : always claiming other people are misogynistic when they are the worst @ @ @ @ @ @ @ too , had to throw in the towel .
Now , Democrats are left with the two last men standing for the presidential nomination—what a shocking reification of white male privilege !
And it ’ s not just any two men ; the Democratic Party is offering two men of virtually identical politics—even if one came by his policies honestly and the other has embraced the New Left in a desperate act of political expediency .
After pounding Sanders in the primaries on Tuesday night , Biden expressed what might have been the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ saying that he and Sanders “ share a common vision.
” The following morning , Barack Obama ’ s speechwriter , Jon Favreau , tweeted , “ Joe Biden will run on the most progressive platform of any Democratic nominee in history , and Bernie Sanders and the movement he inspired are a big reason why.
” Biden was a radically different politician when he entered politics as a senator from Delaware .
He was a good old boy from the South in the early 1970s , and he stayed that way for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
But his ideas , like those of any lifetime politicians , have proven to be entirely flexible , and he ’ s jettisoned any policy even vaguely conservative and embraced the ideology of the Democratic left .
He ’ s even prepared to confront the imaginary crisis of climate change by putting oil executives in jail .
Biden wants to increase the growth of the federal government—so it can confiscate more firearms—and he wants to abrogate national sovereignty by eliminating or just ignoring borders so more illegal immigrants can enter the country @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Biden appears so confused and detached at times that it is doubtful he even knows what policies he is espousing .
But that begs the question as to whether Biden will be the puppet of the hard left if he were ever to become president because there he has no ideological firewalls .
It was interesting to note how , after getting shellacked again by Biden in the latest primaries , Sanders has sounded like a man almost happy to lose .
It ’ s almost as though he realizes that he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to his political orientation .
And the transformation the Democratic Party has undergone in the last half-century is a remarkable one .
What we see today is certainly not the party of Jimmy Carter , let alone John Kennedy .
It ’ s interesting to compare the candidacies of Kennedy and Richard Nixon during the 1960 election with what we see with today .
Today , Sanders-the-socialist has become indiscernible from Bolshevik-Biden .
Then , the similarities and cross-pollination of ideas was happening between parties .
Back in 1960 , about the only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ office was Kennedy ’ s good looks and womanizing .
Politically , however , the pair were virtually identical .
As president , Kennedy ran an administration that cut taxes and spent money on defense .
If Kennedy was the victim of a massive conspiracy , it was not one that led to his assassination , but the one that nurtured the myth that he was a hallowed liberal who insouciantly but fearlessly pursued a progressive agenda .
Kennedy and Nixon became friends when they both arrived in Congress in 1947 .
When @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Helen Gahagan Douglas in 1950 , whom Nixon branded as “ pink , right down to her underwear , ” Kennedy gave the Republican $ 1,000 for his campaign , saying of former actress Douglas that he wouldn ’ t be heartbroken if the Senate ’ s loss was Hollywood ’ s gain .
Neither John nor Robert Kennedy supported two-time Democratic presidential nominee Adlai Stevenson because they thought he was weak and too liberal .
Kennedy governed as a conservative with style .
We should always remember that he was not murdered @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by a malcontent Marxist .
The Democrats were once the party of President Harry Truman—a man who successfully contained Soviet communism in Eastern Europe and established the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to demonstrate his resolve .
It was a party where a Senate Majority Leader like Lyndon Johnson could work with Republican President Dwight Eisenhower on both foreign and domestic policy so that the nation could project unity and not partisan politics for their own sake .
A Democratic president like Kennedy could proclaim “ Ich bin ein Berliner ” because he believed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ capitalist-free world and communist enslavement .
But you don ’ t have to go back that far to prove the point that the Democrats have lost touch with reality and the voting public .
Today , that once-great-party only really wants to talk about identity politics , which that usually translates into sex .
Whether it is celebrating drag queens or welcoming biological males into women ’ s bathrooms or waxing salons , the Democrats are committed to appeasing the woke brigade while alienating much of their traditional base .
And that traditional @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Donald Trump this November .
Because it won ’ t matter whether the “ establishment ” candidate Biden wins or the mad socialist Sanders takes the nomination : the Democratic Party has become a madhouse where the inmates are not so much in control but where they have convinced the management that insanity is preferable to a sound mind .

The Democrats, now a cult of assiduous navel-gazers—obsessed with gender, anxious about white privilege and tortured about the role of race in American history—are offering their voters a choice between a 78-year-old-socialist-white-man and a 77-year-old-white-man who will employ any ideological device in the pursuit of power. One has been ideologically consistent, while the other has been consistently changing ideologies.
One has been ideologically consistent, while the other has been consistently changing ideologies.
The two duked it out last week during the Democratic presidential debate. Out of concern for their charges, the Democratic National Committee even allowed the elder statesmen to sit during the audience-free discussion. I was wondering when the nap break would occur.
The “debate” provided an opportunity for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) to lead former Vice President Joe Biden by the hand, further into the netherworld of leftist politics. Sanders pushed and prodded Biden as he repudiated fracking, claimed he’d always been against the Hyde Amendment (that prohibits federal funding for abortion), and that he had spent his political career fighting the mad dogs of corporate capitalism. He was two wheezes shy of praising collective farming. After castigating capitalism, the conversation meandered towards social(ist) policies and outrageous accusations about the United States.
In other words, last week’s debate sounded like every Democratic debate we’ve seen this election cycle: a cross between a Trotskyite plenary session and a university microaggression conference. As the 2020 presidential election approaches, the Democrats have revealed themselves not as the party of diversity, not even a party of choice, but a party of socialism that is prepared to advance any crackpot theory of whim if it sounds sufficiently radical chic.

PROGRESSIVES STAND BEHIND THEIR (OLD, WHITE) MAN
Despite all the moaning about Sen. Elizabeth Warren being forced out of the contest because of conscious or unconscious sexism, the mainstream media has chronically neglected Rep. Tulsi Gabbard’s (D-Hawaii) presence in the race. She was always just too normal, too centrist, too willing to appear on Fox News and too traditionally Democratic to validate. Gabbard called out the Democrats for their “hypocrisy” on sexism: always claiming other people are misogynistic when they are the worst violators.
“Joe Biden will run on the most progressive platform of any Democratic nominee in history, and Bernie Sanders and the movement he inspired are a big reason why.”
Last Thursday, Gabbard, too, had to throw in the towel.
Now, Democrats are left with the two last men standing for the presidential nomination—what a shocking reification of white male privilege! And it’s not just any two men; the Democratic Party is offering two men of virtually identical politics—even if one came by his policies honestly and the other has embraced the New Left in a desperate act of political expediency.
After pounding Sanders in the primaries on Tuesday night, Biden expressed what might have been the most succinct moment of his campaign, saying that he and Sanders “share a common vision.” The following morning, Barack Obama’s speechwriter, Jon Favreau, tweeted, “Joe Biden will run on the most progressive platform of any Democratic nominee in history, and Bernie Sanders and the movement he inspired are a big reason why.”
Biden was a radically different politician when he entered politics as a senator from Delaware. He was a good old boy from the South in the early 1970s, and he stayed that way for much of his time in the Senate. But his ideas, like those of any lifetime politicians, have proven to be entirely flexible, and he’s jettisoned any policy even vaguely conservative and embraced the ideology of the Democratic left. He’s even prepared to confront the imaginary crisis of climate change by putting oil executives in jail. Biden wants to increase the growth of the federal government—so it can confiscate more firearms—and he wants to abrogate national sovereignty by eliminating or just ignoring borders so more illegal immigrants can enter the country and demand taxpayer-paid health care.
Sure, Biden appears so confused and detached at times that it is doubtful he even knows what policies he is espousing. But that begs the question as to whether Biden will be the puppet of the hard left if he were ever to become president because there he has no ideological firewalls.

A ONCE GREAT (ALBEIT NOT GRAND) PARTY
It was interesting to note how, after getting shellacked again by Biden in the latest primaries, Sanders has sounded like a man almost happy to lose. It’s almost as though he realizes that he’s succeeded in moving the party to his political orientation. And the transformation the Democratic Party has undergone in the last half-century is a remarkable one. What we see today is certainly not the party of Jimmy Carter, let alone John Kennedy.
If Kennedy was the victim of a massive conspiracy, it was not one that led to his assassination, but the one that nurtured the myth that he was a hallowed liberal who insouciantly but fearlessly pursued a progressive agenda.
It’s interesting to compare the candidacies of Kennedy and Richard Nixon during the 1960 election with what we see with today. Today, Sanders-the-socialist has become indiscernible from Bolshevik-Biden. Then, the similarities and cross-pollination of ideas was happening between parties.
Back in 1960, about the only thing separating the two men running for office was Kennedy’s good looks and womanizing. Politically, however, the pair were virtually identical. As president, Kennedy ran an administration that cut taxes and spent money on defense. If Kennedy was the victim of a massive conspiracy, it was not one that led to his assassination, but the one that nurtured the myth that he was a hallowed liberal who insouciantly but fearlessly pursued a progressive agenda.
Kennedy and Nixon became friends when they both arrived in Congress in 1947. When Nixon ran for the Senate against Democrat Helen Gahagan Douglas in 1950, whom Nixon branded as “pink, right down to her underwear,” Kennedy gave the Republican $1,000 for his campaign, saying of former actress Douglas that he wouldn’t be heartbroken if the Senate’s loss was Hollywood’s gain. Neither John nor Robert Kennedy supported two-time Democratic presidential nominee Adlai Stevenson because they thought he was weak and too liberal.
Kennedy governed as a conservative with style. We should always remember that he was not murdered by a white supremacist or right-wing zealot—but by a malcontent Marxist.
The Democrats were once the party of President Harry Truman—a man who successfully contained Soviet communism in Eastern Europe and established the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to demonstrate his resolve. It was a party where a Senate Majority Leader like Lyndon Johnson could work with Republican President Dwight Eisenhower on both foreign and domestic policy so that the nation could project unity and not partisan politics for their own sake. A Democratic president like Kennedy could proclaim “Ich bin ein Berliner” because he believed there was such a thing as a capitalist-free world and communist enslavement.
But you don’t have to go back that far to prove the point that the Democrats have lost touch with reality and the voting public. Today, that once-great-party only really wants to talk about identity politics, which that usually translates into sex. Whether it is celebrating drag queens or welcoming biological males into women’s bathrooms or waxing salons, the Democrats are committed to appeasing the woke brigade while alienating much of their traditional base.
And that traditional base is going to vote for President Donald Trump this November. Because it won’t matter whether the “establishment” candidate Biden wins or the mad socialist Sanders takes the nomination: the Democratic Party has become a madhouse where the inmates are not so much in control but where they have convinced the management that insanity is preferable to a sound mind.

Pelosi Snaps at CNN’s Dana Bash Over Trump Tweets: ‘I Don’t Have Time to Follow People’s Twits, Tweets, Twitters, Whatever’

' I do n't have time to follow people 's twits , tweets , twitters , whatever '

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) snapped at CNN's Dana Bash over a question about the coronavirus lockdown from President Donald Trump's tweets.
Pelosi was addressing negotiations on a coronavirus stimulus deal when she got irritated at Bash for asking her to respond to a statement from the president's Twitter account.
"Where do you stand and more importantly what is your message to the president about the time frame here and what should lead here, the economy or health care?" asked Bash.
"Well, there doesn't have to be a contradiction there. Our economy will thrive when our people are well, and able to go back to work in groups, and collaborate on the enthusiasms that they have in their entrepreneurial spirit or in the workplace, that they thrive and our children can go back to school," Pelosi answered.
"But central to all of that is stopping the spread of the disease, of the coronavirus. It's central to that," she continued.
"So I don't have time to follow people's twits, tweets, twitters, whatever, tweets, so don't expect me to comment on them," Pelosi said emphatically.
"Well, even beyond Twitter, the president of the United States is saying that he could open it up," Bash asked.
"I don't care!" interrupted Pelosi. "I don't care! I don't care! I don't care!"
Bash continued, "What is your opinion on that?"
"My opinion is that it's not scientific; he's notion-mongering as he does almost every day, so rather than waste any time on commenting on the president, I would rather spend our time focusing on the fact that any president or anybody with responsibility should be scientifically inclined. Evidence-based, data, what is going to make the difference?" said Pelosi.
"I think the cure is the biggest message of hope that is out there. We have the best minds in the country, 24/7, all hands on deck, trying to find a path here. And that is what will be the light at the end of the tunnel," she added.
"What the president is suggesting is that that light at the end of the tunnel could be a train coming at us if people are out and about in a way that spreads the disease further," she concluded.
Pelosi was accused by Republican lawmakers of demanding the coronavirus stimulus bill be stuffed with expenditures serving Democrats' liberal agenda and stalling the relief for the American people.
Here's the video of Pelosi's comments:
