Covid Will Destroy Many Colleges If Things Don’t Open Up

TFP ,

Virtue-signaling leftist institutions like the Cal State system have already announced no in person fall classes. They do so at their own peril. Already students are beginning to shun the on-line model if it means full-time. Universities have greatly over-invested in sports facilities, classrooms and palatial dorms in recent years that could be empty. Much of it was financed with debt. Government will soon run out of bail-out dollars and donors who usually fund endowments are bound to cut back due to tough economic times. The lock-down must stop, immediately.

Intelligence Community Corruption

TFP , , , ,

Remember not too long ago when the Democrats, DC swamp creatures and their toadies in the far-left media were screaming “how dare Trump question the honesty and integrity of our intelligence community!” ? Yeah, me too. Where are they now? Turns out, like most things Trump was right.

People need to go to jail, and not Michael Flynn. Peter Strzok, Lisa Page and Jim Comey would be a good start, among others.

Covid Craziness

TFP , , , ,

As with most crises real and imagined, unprincipled people in power and know-nothings with a megaphone (media) will usually try to take advantage of the situation and change the rules. Remember a mere two months ago when shutting down our entire country and sheltering in place had to be done to prevent the medical system from becoming overwhelmed? Mission accomplished. The medical system was never overwhelmed. In fact, many hospitals are facing financial ruin because, wait for it, THEY HAVE NO PATIENTS! Next it was “we have to flatten the curve!” Check, not that there is any evidence that the curve wouldn’t have been flattened if we did nothing. Well, now many leftists in state and federal government are fighting tooth and nail to not return things to normal. Now it’s “we have to save grandma and cannot have one more death or you will have blood on your hands!” There is a term for this: moving the goal posts. The Covid panic was never about saving people, it was about seizing control and transforming, I would say destroying, the country and society. It has to stop, now!

The April labor report came out today and of course it was quite ugly. Unemployment as reported soared to 14% in the month but in reality it sits closer to 20%. Some interesting side notes came out as well. Women are being harder hit that men by the tune of 2%. Also disproportionately impacted were low income workers and minorities. Soon we are going to hear from the left: “Covid is not only racist it’s sexist!” No, but the idiotic draconian policies being enacted by corrupt leftist politicians and championed by their dishonest toadies in the left-wing media ARE in fact racist and sexist, if anything involving this mess is. Food for thought.

Here is more lunacy:

Reopening the country is genocide! Who knew! No, but not reopening might be. Once again, a leftist sewer-dweller is projecting.

Illinois’ buffoon of a governor will destroy that state.

Covid deaths likely overstated, possibly by a huge margin.

HUGE! From CDC Website: Hospitals to List COVID-19 as Cause of Death Even if It’s “Assumed to Have Caused Or Contributed to Death” – Lab Tests Not Required

The CD’s own website lists over 5000 “probable” deaths. This is not medical science. It is propaganda.

The Covid ‘Crisis’ Never Existed and We Need To Go Back to Normal Immediately

TFP , , , , , , ,

I predicted here over a month ago that the Covid hysteria and the resultant draconian shutdowns might end up being the biggest con foisted on the human race in history, and it is starting to look like I am right.

Leave it to the most honest sports guy in the business to publish the most accurate summary of Covid studies, and the results show overwhelmingly that Covid is not as virulent nor as deadly as our governments and the corrupt left-wing media want you to believe:

Studies: Coronavirus Less Deadly, More Common Than Experts Believed

Why hasn’t the “mainstream” media done this. Sure, early on there were a few well-meaning medical people urging caution, but Covid containment is long past the point of “saving the people”. It is about power, control and money. The extent to which governments around the world have restricted or eliminated freedoms is beyond breathtaking. This is like a dry-run at a police state. And many in the medical community (Dr Fauci – don’t shake hands but Tinder hookups are OK) are complicit.

So we closed 30-40% of our economy, put 20 million people out of work, gave the Fed control over vast swaths of the financial markets, took away personal liberties, ended our kids’ school years and in many cases ceased to educate them (especially stupid given that studies show kids neither get Covid nor transmit it), and shut down all of our sports, from youth to high school to college and pro. All to eradicate something that may turn out to be less deadly than the common flu.

It is a small thing relatively (if you actually believe you are saving lives, which apparently we were not) but we ruined the end of middle school, high school and college for millions. There are a million stories about how the Covid lockdown has changed people’s lives for the worst. A couple of anecdotes: the week the world “stopped” my son’s high school was going for state titles in two separate sports. With spring wiped out my senior daughter’s highly-ranked tennis team had its season wiped out. These are things the kids will never get back. Those opportunities and memories are gone forever. There are probably tens of thousands of similar stories around the country, and it is just wrong. It looks like we stopped life for nothing.

The Covid madness must end immediately. Totalitarian politicians in this country (most though not all on the far-left) are using the ‘crisis’ solely to obtain power at this point. The one thing you can do: VOTE THE POWER-MAD LEFTISTS AND TOTALITARIANS OUT OF OFFICE IN NOVEMBER!

media and big tech is complicit:

Google is an odious company. Do not use any of their products if you possibly can if you like freedom.

Michigan Democrats: Politicians “Belong” To Us

TFP , , ,

Oh oh. Did he just say that a black woman politician who dared to thank President Trump for supporting a medical treatment that probably saved her life is “owned” by the Democrat Party? There it is people, in all its glory. The façade is gone. Democrats “own” their members, especially blacks and women. Don’t stray from the plantation, no dissent is allowed. Racism, sexism? You decide.

Keep in mind, this poor woman did not endorse Trump nor did she side with him on some major issue…she dared to THANK him. That’s it. She was dying, and hydroxychloroquine, which the President has supported using in critical cases likely saved her life. This is what the far-left is all about. I have always said that those who scream about various “isms” are themselves the guilty ones and are projecting/covering up.

Michael Moore Exposes The Green Energy Con??

TFP , , , ,

What?? Are you kidding?? Apparently not.

https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2020/04/23/delingpole-michael-moore-is-now-the-green-new-deals-worst-enemy/

Michael Moore, perhaps the most famous leftist documentary filmmaker in the world is a lot of things. I disagree with him on most topics. But he is sometimes (maybe often?) honest in his own way. Apparently his newest film project takes on “clean green energy” and leftists are furious.

He exposes the green energy scam for what it is and documents the untold damage that a lot of “green” energy projects do. Nothing I have not said here many times before, but its nice when a leftist with credibility in their circle does it. Most of “green energy” is dependent on carbon-based fuels. “Green” technology destroys nature, pollutes the environment, and leaves toxic waste often on a scale far greater than hydrocarbons due to its inefficiency. Not mentioned in the article is how solar and windfarms massacre wildlife, mostly birds, on a scale that Hitler would be envious of. Or how mining for key rare Earth metals used in green tech leaves toxic waste on a massive scale. All in all, this is a welcome expose of the “green” con, even though the movie gives us the usual “the Earth has too many people” rant.

 

Don’t Let The US Be Overrun With ‘Karens’

TFP , , ,

A Karen is a busybody, a nag, a scold. The Karens in society seem to be running roughshod these days, whether it’s the nagging neighbor, the TV know-it-all scold, or the dictatorial Governor like Michigan’s Whitmer. Most are leftists. They love control above all. Don’t let them win.
