That came just seven days after the Chinese Communist government released an ad encouraging westerners to hug random Chinese as a gesture of love and affection and a demonstration that they weren’t prejudiced. Who knew that NYC’s Health Commissioner watched Italian TV?
The man won’t make it to Milwaukee
They’re loads, all of them
Nick Searcy composes a love song to his idiot neighbors in Hollywood. Starts off:
Imagine there's no acting
It's easy if you try
No tv shows or movies
The streaming going dry
Imagine all the people
Reading lots of books. Woo hoo!
Imagine there's no audience
It isn't hard to do
You told half of them you hate them
What the hell do you think they're gonna do?
Imagine all the people
Turning off your show! Yoo hoo!
You may say I'm a Trumper
But I'm not the only one
Hope some day you'll join us
And go out and buy a gun!
Please, Chuck, puleeze can we have some masks? And maybe a couple of ventilators? Pretty please?
The current system, in which states and hospitals are competing against each other for scarce equipment, is both unnecessary and barbaric,” said Murphy, D-Conn. “It’s time to centralize the critical medical supply chain and distribution during this public health crisis.”
Quite aside from the fact that transferring control of critical supplies to bureaucrats will only ensure their permanent scarcity, does our idiot Che GueMurphy actually believe that he has the political clout to wrest supplies from, say, New York, or California? How many electoral votes does Connecticut carry, Senator?
True story: during the gasoline shortage of 1979, gas was distributed by the government according to which state had the more powerful politician. Ted Kennedy managed to flood Cape Cod with gasoline so as to protect its tourist trade. He forgot, however, that tourists would have to get to Cape Cod if they were to spend money there, and Kennedy had left no fuel for the other New England states. Result: Cape Cod was awash with gasoline and vacant hotels, and the tourists stayed home.
Our little pipsqueak thinks he’ll do better with Schumer or Pelosi than his predecessors did against Kennedy? He’s a delusional egomaniac and a fool, to boot.
Just to be clear, Christine Pelosi is an adult, not a teenager with a 79-year-old mother. She’ll be 54 in May, assuming the flu doesn’t do us a favor before then.
19 Brookridge Drive
I don’t know how the new owners recorded their deeds, if they did at all, with Town Hall closed, but two substantial sales were reported today.
19 Brookridge Drive, $6,497,200, on an asking price of $7.249. just three months on the market. Beautiful house, beautiful grounds, great location. I note that the house was built in 1927, just before the world went to hell. I hope history doesn’t repeat itself.
25 Dublin Hill Drive
Not so fortunate, unless the market tanks still further, were the now-former owners of 25 Dublin Hill drive, which sold for $3,331,610 (today was a day for odd sale prices, for some reason). Purchased for $6.725 million in 2004, this one didn’t prosper.
Can you believe we’re losing to this guy?
CNN analyst goes after Trump, fails
Stepher Green:
Proving once again that the mainstream media's Twitter Checkmark Mafia is populated almost exclusively by smug know-nothings whose ignorance is exceeded only by their condescension, I present to you the very latest from CNN's Chris Cillizza.
…… I'm no virologist, but according to the latest research I've been able to find, viruses don't just blow around in the wind from country to country, infecting any and everyone who comes into contact with the tainted air. Not even the Chinese coronavirus from Wuhan, a city in China ruled by Chinese Communists where the Chinese-sourced Sino-virus came from.
According to a report earlier this month by MIT Technology Review, scientists attempting to see how long coronavirus can survive in the air and on various surfaces, "swished around in the air chamber, the germs remained for about three hours." So if Cilizza thinks the virus swept over the Pacific from China on the winds, he couldn't be more wrong.
…. You know what respects borders, generally speaking? Shipping companies that put packages on trucks and planes.
For coronavirus to really spread, however, it needs a living, breathing human host. Most human beings also respect borders. We usually plan our international travel far in advance, we carry the proper paperwork, and we submit ourselves to the entry and reentry process at each end of our journey.
You know who doesn't respect borders, at all? Illegal aliens. That oh-so-problematical phrase says it all: Aliens means they're not from here; illegal means they didn't get here through the proper channels. Call them "migrants" or "undocumented disease vectors" or whatever, but "illegal aliens" is both correct and proper.
Borders -- specifically, borders enforced with walls where needed -- are the best way to stop illegal aliens. They're also a fine way to check up on those entering the country legally, to see if maybe they have a fever and need a little timeout before being set loose on the American public.
So what have we learned today, kids?
We've learned:
• Coronavirus typically needs a human host to spread to more humans.
• Humans either respect borders (legal tourists/immigrants), or can be made to respect borders if you make the borders tough enough to cross.
• Therefore, non-porous borders would be a great way to slow the spread of coronavirus and the deadly COVID-19 infection.
• Chris Cillizza is even dumber than you thought.
That last one was a real shocker, like learning there's an even deeper trench located under the Marianas Trench.
Biden Campaign Team arrives to pick him up and buck him up
Fully recovered, or close enough, from his most recent stroke, Joe Blo announces that he’ll be broadcasting daily briefings to undercut the president of the United States. “This election is too important to let my chances be derailed by a little flu”, the octogenarian told FWIW. “Now, where’s my slipper? Someone’s always taking my slipper!”
Sowing doubt and confusion among its enemies, the American public
And as it turned out,
Tesla to start manufacturing ventilators, joining GM
Hanes will start manufacturing face masks
Apple will donate “millions of facemasks in fight against coronavirus”
Large, and small: Chelmsford manufacturer races to produce more ventilators
A ventilator manufacturer in Chelmsford is cranking up production, racing to produce thousands more of the life-saving machines as the coronavirus pandemic makes them ever more important.
“We’re doing anything we can to build as many of these devices as we can,” said Elijah White, the president of Zoll Medical Corp. “This is a true national health emergency.”
Zoll, headquartered in Chelmsford, is going into overdrive to build ventilators as hospitals, medical facilities and the government need more and more of them.
“In the last three weeks we have more than quadrupled our output,” said White, saying the goal is to continue to ramp up toward 10 times Zoll’s normal output. He declined to give specifics of the numbers, but said that means thousands a month.
