thepoliticalinsider--2020-04-02--Schiff Wants 9/11-Style Commission to Investigate Trump Administration’s Response to Coronavirus

Adam Schiff says he will introduce a bill to create a “ nonpartisan ” 9/11-style commission to study why America was “ so unprepared ” for the coronavirus pandemic .
The man who bogged down an entire nation with impeachment dreams while the coronavirus was beginning to flourish , is mobilizing the House Intelligence Committee , which he chairs , to figure out why the country wasn ’ t necessarily focused on the problem at hand .
Schiff shared an article from the Washington Post that cited his desire to begin an investigation once the crisis subsides .
“ After @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at what went wrong to learn from our mistakes , ” Schiff ( D-CA ) tweeted .
“ Once we ’ ve recovered , we need a nonpartisan commission to review our response and how we can better prepare for the next pandemic.
” “ I ’ m working on a bill to do that , ” he added .
The Post article goes on to cite positive and negative actions taken by the Trump administration , leaving little doubt as to who Schiff is actually going after .
Further proof that Schiff @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” but the supposed mistakes made by President Trump himself are comments the impeachment manager made the night before .
In an appearance on MSNBC , Schiff said those blaming his impeachment sham for distracting the country were inadvertently admitting that “ the administration screwed up this response.
” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell blamed the highly partisan effort for distracting lawmakers when coronavirus was .
“ It came up while we were tied down in the impeachment trial , ” McConnell asserted .
“ And I think it diverted the attention of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all about impeachment.
” Schiff Is Full Of It “ Yeah , the president said something similar , which , you know , was an interesting acknowledgment that the administration screwed up this response , ” Schiff claimed without evidence .
“ The facts are quite clear that the president ’ s weeks long , maybe months-long delay in taking this seriously has had catastrophic consequences that we are only now beginning to see the scope of.
” The facts ARE quite clear .
While Schiff , Pelosi , and the Democrats were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would issue travel restrictions with China , establish the Coronavirus Task Force , and declare coronavirus a public health emergency .
If there is any investigation , it needs to encompass the resistance party ’ s lack of action or hindrance to those trying to take action .

Adam Schiff says he will introduce a bill to create a “nonpartisan” 9/11-style commission to study why America was “so unprepared” for the coronavirus pandemic.
Let’s repeat that.
The man who bogged down an entire nation with impeachment dreams while the coronavirus was beginning to flourish, is mobilizing the House Intelligence Committee, which he chairs, to figure out why the country wasn’t necessarily focused on the problem at hand.
Pearl Harbor, 9/11 … Coronavirus
Schiff shared an article from the Washington Post that cited his desire to begin an investigation once the crisis subsides.
“After Pearl Harbor and 9/11, we looked at what went wrong to learn from our mistakes,” Schiff (D-CA) tweeted. “Once we’ve recovered, we need a nonpartisan commission to review our response and how we can better prepare for the next pandemic.”
“I’m working on a bill to do that,” he added.
The Post article goes on to cite positive and negative actions taken by the Trump administration, leaving little doubt as to who Schiff is actually going after.

Says Trump ‘Screwed Up’
Further proof that Schiff is focused not on “our mistakes” but the supposed mistakes made by President Trump himself are comments the impeachment manager made the night before.
In an appearance on MSNBC, Schiff said those blaming his impeachment sham for distracting the country were inadvertently admitting that “the administration screwed up this response.”
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell blamed the highly partisan effort for distracting lawmakers when coronavirus was.
“It came up while we were tied down in the impeachment trial,” McConnell asserted. “And I think it diverted the attention of the government because everything every day was all about impeachment.”

“The facts are quite clear that the president’s weeks long, maybe months-long delay in taking this seriously has had catastrophic consequences that we are only now beginning to see the scope of.”
The facts ARE quite clear.
While Schiff, Pelosi, and the Democrats were developing their impeachment arguments, President Trump would issue travel restrictions with China, establish the Coronavirus Task Force, and declare coronavirus a public health emergency.
If there is any investigation, it needs to encompass the resistance party’s lack of action or hindrance to those trying to take action.

Vice-President Mike Pence is not the kind of guy who plays games .
His whole Race Bannon look and demeanor speaks of a man who gets down to business and has a low tolerance for folderol .
Last week Pence got reports that American efforts to help other nations with supplies that are surplus to our efforts against the virus may have been going to others than the intended recipients .
In this case it was Thailand who had problems on their end .
When a country under attack takes what little it has to spare and gives it to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Murmansk convoys of WWII , you would think the receiving nation would insure the integrity of the gesture .
Thailand did not .
As such , the veep ’ s office is scrutinizing every medical shipment going outside the country now and has placed a stop on all overseas shipments of protective gear .
But there are people in the world who don ’ t see it that way .
They are using precious American supplies to fill black markets , for political ends , even as military weapons .
Most of us @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ t around in the 1970s when Marxist Ethiopian dictator Mengistu allegedly said , “ You can ’ t throw a decent famine without good scotch.
” His dark humor obscured a sad fact .
His regime was using Western food aid to famine-ravaged Ethiopians to kill off his rebel provinces by withholding the aid and staving them to death .
Stalin did the same to Ukrainians in the 1930s .
States like Belarus , North Korea , Cuba , and Venezuela are no doubt making sure elite government leaders are getting tested @ @ @ @ @ @ @ What was that about scotch ?
As Pence ’ s office gets down to work to save vital American equipment for Americans , he is right to take a jaded eye to requests from some regimes .
Sending them anything would be merely abating the oppression they mete out to their own people .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-04-02--Trump Winning Running Briefing Battle With Media

Every day during the coronavirus briefings from the White House the press and the president engage in a running rhetorical battle .
He tries to tell the American people what his team is doing to fight the virus .
The media tries to score points against him to serve their Democrat masters .
There seems to be three avenues of attack the media has deployed against Trump .
He not only has held the line , but has turned the attack back on them .
Hence one reason why his poll numbers are up as high as they ever have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ strategies .
• Outright false stories- The press leads with a false premise prefaced with a statement attacking the president.This is the most obvious line of attack and the most easiest parried .
The president just goes after the premise and calls them out .
On Wednesday he had to do it several times .
When that doesn ’ t work and they look bad , the press retreats into ideology .
• Illegal aliens- Called “ undocumented immigrants ” by the press , the president corrects the definition.Specifically , the press asks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the stimulus bill or be able to get virus testing .
They are trying to portray the president as heartless with gullible voters .
They go back to that well time and time again .
The press also tries to portray ICE as cold jailers who are infecting children with the virus .
Not apparent in any press question is the query : Why would a parent bring those kids into a country that is undergoing a deadly public health crisis ?
• Too late- A popular media tactic is saying the president @ @ @ @ @ @ @ virus.Here they echo their Democrat masters .
They ignore his late January Chinese travel ban and the work of the White House Coronavirus Task Force .
He answers them with facts .
The media ignores his answer and repeats the question .
It happens every day .
When this is over , on entirely other topics , the same will go on .

Rep. Dan Crenshaw hammered former senior adviser to Barack Obama , Valerie Jarrett , for taking a politically opportunistic swipe at President Trump ’ s handling of the coronavirus pandemic .

Much better.

“ Why do so many Obama administration staffers constantly try to make Americans feel awful ?

During this pandemic ?
Why ?
” Something about a crisis and never letting it go to waste , we suspect .
Perhaps Jarrett was encouraged to pile on because of her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Barack who actually asked her the question .
Because Obama also took to social media to deliver a potshot at President Trump for his handling of the coronavirus outbreak .
“ We ’ ve seen all too terribly the consequences of those who denied warnings of a pandemic , ” the former President wrote in discussing a completely unrelated topic .
“ We can ’ t afford any more consequences of climate denial.

Obama and his vice president , current Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden , were busy viewing China as no threat to the United @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” Biden recalled .
“ I said China is not our problem.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-04-02--FLASHBACK: Watch Nancy Pelosi Completely Ignore Trump’s Coronavirus Comments During SOTU Speech

A video circulating on social media shows House Speaker Nancy Pelosi seemingly ignoring President Donald Trump as he discusses the coronavirus during his February 4th State of the Union address .
The video was shared by Steve Guest , Rapid Response Director for the Republican National Committee .
Guest describes Pelosi ’ s actions during the clip as ‘ zoning out.
’ Did She Zone Out ?
While it is difficult to ascertain what is going on in Pelosi ’ s head as the President speaks , it ’ s quite clear she ’ s doing everything BUT paying attention @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s fidgeting with papers , checking notes , reading excerpts , and even staring at somebody or something off to her right .
What she ’ s not doing is listening to President Trump say the following : And knowing Pelosi had been planning to rip up the President ’ s speech like a petty and petulant child all along , it ’ s hard not to assume that is what was on her mind at the time .
Who Ignored The Threat ?
That clip is pretty damning considering two things @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump of denying the seriousness of the pandemic .
“ The president ’ s denial at the beginning was deadly , ” the House speaker told CNN ’ s Jake Tapper .
“ His delay in getting equipment to where it ’ s needed is deadly … As the President fiddles , people are dying.
” This video literally shows Pelosi fiddling while the President tells all of Congress and the world that he is taking the threat quite seriously , taking steps to try and protect the American people , and even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the spread .
And two , the clip serves as a reminder that while the President was busy working for the American people , Democrats were focused on other things .
Other things like the shiny , red object known as impeachment .
Whatever she ’ s doing in the aforementioned clip , it ’ s quite clear Pelosi is lying and trying to deflect blame on President Trump .
While she and her Democrat colleagues ‘ fiddled , ’ the administration from the onset did the following : • January 6 : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Wuhan , China due to coronavirus .
• January 7 : The CDC established a coronavirus incident management system to better share and respond to information about the virus .
• January 8 : The CDC issued an advisory to “ state and local health departments and health care providers ” regarding coronavirus .
What was Pelosi doing ?
She was ordering commemorative impeachment pens for her friends to celebrate bogging down the entire country with their little political games .
“ There ’ s something wrong with the woman , ” Trump @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ She focused on impeachment , and she lost , and she looked like a fool .

It should be noted that the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enrollment for those who have lost their workplace health plans , and some states that run their own insurance markets already have reopened enrollment , according to Politico .
None of this mattered to Midler , however , as she only saw an opportunity to throw yet another anti-Trump temper tantrum .
“ There is no end to the cruelty and malignancy of @ realdDonaldJTrump and his horrifying administration , ” Midler tweeted .

In reality , Trump is not jealous of Obama @ @ @ @ @ @ @ following through with his campaign promises to repeal the aspects of Obama ’ s legacy that the majority of Americans were not happy with .

Hollywood actress and singer Bette Midler seems to have nothing better to do these days than to launch deranged attack after deranged attack on President Donald Trump. She did this once again today, when she not only claimed that Trump is jealous of Barack Obama, but also that this supposed jealousy will “kill us all.”
Midler took to Twitter today to post a New York Times story that revealed the Trump administration has apparently decided not to reopen Obamacare’s Healthcare.gov marketplaces for a special enrollment period. It should be noted that the Affordable Care Act already offers a special enrollment for those who have lost their workplace health plans, and some states that run their own insurance markets already have reopened enrollment, according to Politico.
None of this mattered to Midler, however, as she only saw an opportunity to throw yet another anti-Trump temper tantrum. “There is no end to the cruelty and malignancy of @realdDonaldJTrump and his horrifying administration,” Midler tweeted. “His overwhelming jealousy of @BarackObama will kill us all.”

In reality, Trump is not jealous of Obama at all.
Instead, he is following through with his campaign promises to repeal the aspects of Obama’s legacy that the majority of Americans were not happy with. As a wealthy member of the Hollywood elite, Midler has no idea what real working class Americans are thinking, which is why she remains so in the dark as to why Trump is so popular.

Hollywood actress-turned-loudmouth liberal activist Alyssa Milano has jumped on the leftist train of shamelessly politicizing the coronavirus pandemic by using it to call for mail-in voting to become the norm during the upcoming election .
“ Demand vote by mail now .
# NovemberIsComing , ” Milano tweeted alongside a video montage that argues voters should be able to vote by mail both during the pandemic and beyond it .
Many other Democrats are calling for mail-in voting as well , including two-time failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton .
“ Congress needs to act to make voting by mail the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ outlined by election expert Marc Elias below to make it accessible for all , ” Clinton tweeted last month .
Failed 2020 presidential candidate Amy Klobuchar ( D-MN ) has also been advocating for mail-in voting , writing an entire op-ed about it for the Washington Post .
“ The best way to ensure that this virus doesn ’ t keep people from the ballot box is to bring the ballot box to them .
We must allow every American the ability to vote by mail .
And we must expand early voting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to vote by mail are not exposed to the elevated infection risks of long lines and crowded polling locations , ” Klobuchar wrote , adding that vote-by-mail is a “ time-tested , reliable way for Americans to exercise their constitutional rights.
” Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi ( D-CA ) has made it abundantly clear that Democrats intend to use this pandemic to push their election reform ideas .
“ In terms of the elections , I think that we ’ ll probably be moving to vote-by-mail , ” Pelosi said yesterday @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Morning Joe.
” Pelosi added , “ That ’ s why we wanted to have more resources in this third bill that just was signed by the president to get those resources to the states to facilitate the reality of life that we are going to have to have more vote-by-mail.
” The fact that Democrats are shamelessly using a pandemic that has killed thousands of Americans to fuel their own political agendas is truly despicable .

In the next round of coronavirus relief, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is trying to insert a measure that would benefit herself financially. She wants to make big bucks over the deaths of thousands of Americans. It is amazing she has the gall to attempt it.
Pelosi wants to roll back the Trump administration’s cap on state and local tax deduction (SALT). It was done to stop the rich from getting an unfair break in paying their fair share of taxes. For a party that is always on about “income inequality,” you’d think they would like this. They don’t—it hits them in their own pockets.
The GOP is fighting back. Senate Finance Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley’s office (R-IA) had this to say to Pelosi: “This is a nonstarter. Millionaires don’t need a new tax break as the federal government spends trillions of dollars to fight a pandemic.”
The Wall Street Journal opined, “Mrs. Pelosi’s remarks underscore the potential for further political mischief and long-term damage as the government intervenes to stimulate the economy. When Democrats next complain that Republicans want to cut taxes ‘for the rich,’ remember that Mrs. Pelosi wants to cut them too—but mainly for the progressive rich in Democratic states.”
Fox News reports, “A 2019 report from the Joint Committee on Taxation projected that of those who would face lower tax liability from the elimination of the SALT cap – which only affects those who itemize tax deductions – 94 percent earn at least $100,000.

Two homes, commercial property, and a winery. And still she craves more, this time at the expense of the American taxpayer in time of national crisis. It will never get past negotiations with the Senate because of the obvious baggage. But that Nancy Pelosi even tried shows you what kind of person she is and where her focus is as thousands of Americans die every day.

The NRA has sued New York Governor Andrew Cuomo over the state ’ s refusal to classify gun stores as essential businesses during the coronavirus outbreak .
NRA : “ Pointless and Arbitrary Attack ” on the Second Amendment On March 20th , Cuomo designated only pharmacies , liquor stores , grocery stores and take-out restaurants as essential businesses during the coronavirus pandemic , ensuring other shops had to close .
The NRA described this decision as a “ pointless and arbitrary attack on the constitutional rights of New York citizens and residents , ” arguing that Governor Cuomo “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Second Amendment to the United States Constitution.
” RELATED : Hispanic Caucus Calls for Immediate Release of ICE Detainees Due to Coronavirus This is the second suit that the NRA have launched against a governor for shutting down gun stores during the coronavirus outbreak .
The NRA launched a similar suit last week against Gavin Newsom , the Governor of California , for creating a similar executive order .
“ Municipalities who target lawful gun stores for closure aren ’ t promoting safety—by weaponizing their politics to disarm you and your loved ones @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a gun-control agenda that suffocates your self-defense rights when you need them most , ” said Jason Ouimet , the executive director of the NRA ’ s Institute for Legislative Action .
Another lawsuit was launched by the New Jersey Second Amendment Society and the Legend Firearms shop against New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy after he also deemed gun stores as non-essential businesses .
“ The exigencies surrounding this viral pandemic both justify and necessitate changes in the manner in which people live their lives and conduct their daily business , ” the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ emergency ( like any other emergency ) has its constitutional limits .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-04-03--‘Will & Grace’ Star Debra Messing Claims Trump ‘Owns Every Death’ From Coronavirus

“ Will & Grace ” star Debra Messing , who is known for both her acting career and her radically liberal views , just claimed that President Donald Trump is responsible for every American death from coronavirus .
Messing took to Twitter to respond to unclassified documents published by The Daily Beast that they claim were sent to Trump ’ s White House by the U.S. Army warning of a worst case scenario of 80 million people being infected with coronavirus .
The documents , which the publication claims were sent to Trump two months ago , warn that up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ many as 150,000 could die .
“ HE .
F***ING .
KNEW .
150,000 Americans DEAD , ” Messing tweeted .
“ And he did NOTHING .
# TrumpOwnsEveryDeath.
” At the time of this writing , over 266,000 Americans have been infected with coronavirus , and 6,803 Americans have died from it .
This is far from the first time that Messing has launched this kind of deranged attack on Trump .
Last month , she pushed the false narrative that Trump had called the coronavirus pandemic a “ hoax ” by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Twitter page .
In reality , Trump only described the left ’ s efforts to politicize the coronavirus as a “ hoax.
” “ LIAR-IN-CHIEF .
# Maga have been unmoved by the 16500 lies 45 has made since elected , ” Messing tweeted at the time .
“ Now that innumerable people ( including MAGA ) will die , because of his lies and inaction , I wonder if MAGA will recognize that 45 must be voted out ?
” Messing also claimed back in February that Trump “ puts Americans in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Washington Post article about proposed budget cuts to the CDC that never actually took place , so we aren ’ t exactly dealing with the sharpest tool in the shed here .
It ’ s unfortunate that performers like Messing think that being famous makes them an expert on all-things political when they are clearly just hopelessly ignorant .
Messing should really stick to what she does best , which is play pretend for a living , and leave the politics up to those of us who actually have brains .

At the time of this writing, over 266,000 Americans have been infected with coronavirus, and 6,803 Americans have died from it.
This is far from the first time that Messing has launched this kind of deranged attack on Trump. Last month, she pushed the false narrative that Trump had called the coronavirus pandemic a “hoax” by sharing a deceptively edited video on her Twitter page. In reality, Trump only described the left’s efforts to politicize the coronavirus as a “hoax.”
“LIAR-IN-CHIEF. #Maga have been unmoved by the 16500 lies 45 has made since elected,” Messing tweeted at the time. “Now that innumerable people (including MAGA) will die, because of his lies and inaction, I wonder if MAGA will recognize that 45 must be voted out?”

Messing also claimed back in February that Trump “puts Americans in mortal danger” alongside a two year-old Washington Post article about proposed budget cuts to the CDC that never actually took place, so we aren’t exactly dealing with the sharpest tool in the shed here.
THIS is why Trump MUST GO! He puts Americans in mortal danger. https://t.co/yQ2zveYPs3 — Debra Messing✍ (@DebraMessing) February 28, 2020
It’s unfortunate that performers like Messing think that being famous makes them an expert on all-things political when they are clearly just hopelessly ignorant. Messing should really stick to what she does best, which is play pretend for a living, and leave the politics up to those of us who actually have brains.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-04-03--Researchers At University Of Pittsburgh Say They Have Created A Potential Vaccine For Coronavirus

Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine are saying that they may have developed a vaccine for coronavirus .
In a study published in EBioMedicine on Thursday , the experts described the potential vaccine as a “ promising immunization strategy , ” and they noted that it could be introduced and distributed quickly enough to “ significantly impact the spread of disease.
” Known as PittCoVacc , the vaccine is “ made of dissolvable sugar and bits of a particular protein known as the spike protein , which the virus uses to attach to cells and infect its @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Researchers have already tested the vaccine on mice , and they concluded that it produces what is believed to be a sufficient number of antibodies needed to counteract the virus .
The researchers explained that they were able to develop this vaccine so quickly because of past vaccines they had made for other similar diseases like Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome ( SARS ) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome ( MERS ) .
“ We had previous experience on SARS-CoV in 2003 and MERS-CoV in 2014 .
These two viruses , which are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that a particular protein , called a spike protein , is important for inducing immunity against the virus , ” said co-senior author Andrea Gambotto , M.D.
, associate professor of surgery at the Pitt School of Medicine .
“ We knew exactly where to fight this new virus , ” he added .
The University of Pittsburgh distributed a press release saying that researchers created the vaccine the old-fashioned way “ using lab-made pieces of viral protein to build immunity , ” which is the same way flu shots work .
However @ @ @ @ @ @ @ new way using a small fingertip-sized patch that resembles a Band-Aid .
“ It ’ s actually pretty painless — it feels kind of like Velcro , ” said co-senior author Louis Falo , M.D.
, Ph.D. , professor and chair of dermatology at Pitt ’ s School of Medicine and UPMC .
The research team is now trying to get approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) to test the vaccine on humans , and they hope officials will fast-track the normally lengthy process .
“ Testing in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year and probably longer , ” Falo said .
“ This particular situation is different from anything we ’ ve ever seen , so we don ’ t know how long the clinical development process will take .
Recently announced revisions to the normal processes suggest we may be able to advance this faster.
” Needless to say , it would be huge if this vaccine turns out to actually be capable of fighting COVID-19 .
We can only hope that this vaccine is indeed successful , and that we are able to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as soon as possible .

“We had previous experience on SARS-CoV in 2003 and MERS-CoV in 2014.
