In what should now seem obvious to everyone, New York Governor Cuomo is trying to parlay the suffering of his poorly run state into a presidential bid, maybe even in 2020. Governor Cuomo likes to portray himself as a family man, and he seems to be living up to that portrayal as he enlists his brother Fredo…I mean Chris, to help him out. The selling of Governor Cuomo’s leadership ability started off on CNN, where…

The fear mongering lead-up to the Iraq war was eerily similar to how the coronavirus pandemic is being portrayed in the media today.
There’s been a strange sense of familiarity with the coverage and hysteria regarding the coronavirus outbreak. For the last few weeks I kept getting the feeling that I’ve seen this all play out before, but I couldn’t quite put my finger on it. But then it dawned on me while watching one of the cable news networks and it all became clear. I was watching the bold graphics flash across the screen that read “coronavirus…
Read MoreTalk of extending the lockdowns for months is nothing more than typical Progressive virtue signaling that ends up hurting the people it pretends to help.
Progressives are at it again, and this time their virtue signaling is poised to cause long-lasting damage to our economy and create painful economic suffering for millions of people. The coronavirus response here in America is working. As I wrote yesterday, the experts were wrong and a situation like Italy has not materialized here. In Italy, new cases are actually slowing down so the worst seems to be over for them. So now it’s prudent…
Read MoreFor over a month the experts have told us America is only a week behind Italy. Well, it never happened. The experts were wrong.
It seems hard for some to understand, but the so-called “experts” can sometimes be wrong. In fact, they’re often wrong. If they were always right we would all live in a utopia where the experts perfectly managed a perfect world. Many experts have filled the cable news shows and Twitter to tell us all that America was only a week behind Italy. Whatever was going on in Italy, confirmed or not, was undoubtedly coming to…
Read MoreGrocery store employees are being forced to do the exact opposite of CDC guidelines. So why aren’t they all getting infected?
I had an interesting thought today as I was heading off to my local Wal-Mart to pick up a few items. As I’m sure all of you are experiencing, most businesses are closed, however stores like Wal-Mart, Target, Costco, and other large grocery chains are open. Understandably, these stores have been seeing record traffic as people stock up on items. The CEOs of these companies have even stated that traffic is 5x higher than during…
Read MoreHow long will Americans tolerate forced lockdowns if they don’t see a significant rise in local cases.
As huge parts of the country are under orders to either shelter in place or close their businesses, one serious question has to be considered and that’s how long Americans will tolerate this. First off, Americans are very determined and everyone wants to work together to get through this pandemic as fast and as safely as possible. However, Americans are also being tasked with sacrificing a lot in the hopes that the officials are 100%…
Read MoreEven in the midst of a global pandemic, the media has to make it all about themselves.
Apparently NBC White House correspondent Peter Alexander got his feelings hurt today, and instead of reporting on the coronavirus task force, he spent the day going on various news programs to talk about himself. During an exchange at the daily press briefings by the coronavirus task force, Alexander suggested Trump was giving Americans “false hope” simply because he was optimistic that current drug therapies may aid in the fight against the coronavirus. It was a…
Read MoreHow the coronavirus combined with the media’s obsession with portraying Trump’s presidency as an apocalyptic event created the perfect storm of fear-mongering hysteria.
A few days ago I wrote about how the coronavirus response could turn out to be one of the biggest false alarms in history. Of course, for the benefit of all of us, I hope I’m proven right on that because it will mean all the terrible forecasts never came true. That should make everyone happy, except of course for those in the media. It’s very possible that we have witnessed a perfect storm where…
Read More5 things about the coronavirus pandemic that just don’t add up.
It goes without saying that pandemics aren’t exactly a common occurrence, so someone would be right to admit they aren’t sure exactly how each one will play out. However, there are several aspects of the current pandemic that simply defy logic and common sense. And no, I’m not talking about toilet paper hoarding. Below are 5 things about the coronavirus pandemic that just don’t seem to add up. Why aren’t the huge homeless populations on…
Read MoreAs strange as it may sound, if Americans don’t start seeing bodies in the streets, they’re going to ask if they just got duped.
This scenario may sound a little strange at first because of the amount of fear going around, but hear me out and I think you’ll see what I’m getting at despite the somewhat hyperbolic title. For now, it looks like the coming week will be the week that American cities effectively “shut down” due to actions taken to avoid the spread of the coronavirus. Schools, movie theaters, bars, and restaurant in several states look to…
