The COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic poses two threats: public health and economic. I am living in Italy, where my wife, Callista, is the ambassador to the Holy See. I have watched first-hand as the Italian government has worked hard to contain the coronavirus by imposing strong public health measures to try to get the epidemic under control. These measures will lead to significant economic challenges. As I write: All schools are closed in all of Italy. All churches are closed (including St. Peter's Basilica). All weddings and funerals are postponed. All restaurants are closed. In fact, all stores except grocery stores and pharmacies are closed. People are urged to work from home ...

Chinese Tycoon Who Criticized Xi’s Response to Coronavirus Has Vanished

His nickname in China was “The Cannon,” and Ren Zhiqiang’s latest commentary was among his most explosive yet. Mr. Ren, an outspoken property tycoon in Beijing, wrote in a scathing essay that China’s leader, Xi Jinping, was a power-hungry “clown.” He said the ruling Communist Party’s strict limits on free speech had exacerbated the coronavirus epidemic. Now Mr. Ren, one of the most prominent critics of Mr. Xi in mainland China, is missing, his friends said on Saturday. His disappearance comes amid a far-reaching campaign by the party to quash criticism of its slow, secretive initial response to the epidemic, which has killed over 3,100 people in ...

Democrats seem to be repeating the mistake of 2016. Just as four years ago, they are disenfranchising far left supporters of Bernie Sanders, many of whom are already saying they will never vote for Joe Biden. Democrats obviously hope these people will eventually come around but if history is any guide, many of them won’t. Politico reports: A ‘Never Biden’ movement vows not to vote for Joe On Tuesday night, Joe Biden’s campaign was celebrating his latest primary night triumph. By Wednesday morning, #NeverBiden, #WriteinBernie and #DemExit2020 hashtags began trending on Twitter. There’s no question it’s been a banner two weeks for Biden. But lurking in ...

This was awkward. Joe Biden held a virtual town hall via Facebook live on Friday and it was a disaster. First Biden got confused and didn’t know when he would be president if he won the election. Then he wandered off camera as he was babbling about the Amazon forest burning and how if he were president he would offer $20 billion to protect agriculture internationally. The campaign tried to cover it up with a logo. Seriously, what is wrong with Joe Biden?? WATCH: Click for Full Text!
Five Weeks After Being Sued, DEA Agrees To Return $82,000 It Stole From A Retiree

from the weird-how-that-works deptWed, Mar 11th 2020 3:21am — Tim Cushing Sometimes all it takes is a lawsuit and little bad press to make the federal government at least temporarily regret its thieving ways. In January, the DEA was sued by Rebecca West and her father Terry Rolin after the agency lifted Rolin's life savings -- more than $82,000 -- from West at the Pittsburgh airport. The supposedly travel safety-focused TSA agents saw the cash in West's carry-on luggage and decided to notify State Troopers and the DEA. After a few extended conversations with West, the DEA decided to seize the money under the theory that a person with this much cash on their person must have ...
After a State-Authorized Medical Marijuana Patient Had an Epileptic Seizure and Crashed Her Car, Police Arrested Her for Driving With 'Marjuana in Her System'

Beth Repp, a registered medical marijuana patient in Pennsylvania, crashed her car in Pittsburgh last September after suffering an epileptic seizure. Adding insult to injury, police arrested Repp and charged her with driving under the influence because "blood tests showed marijuana in her system." Now Repp is challenging Pennsylvania's unjust and unscientific definition of stoned driving, which effectively criminalizes driving by anyone who uses medical marijuana in compliance with state law.Under Pennsylvania's DUI law, a defendant is automatically guilty of driving under the influence—a misdemeanor punishable by a 12-month license suspension, a maximum fine of $5,000 ...

Hampden, MA — Four Hampden teenagers got a dose of police state reality when they were both given hundreds of dollars in fines by environmental cops for riding their motorcycles on their own family’s property. Yes. That’s right, America. Massachusetts has its own police force called “environmental police”, AKA Game and Fish wardens in other states. Each one of the four teenagers was hit with $750 in fines for a grand police state total of $3000 for just the one incident. The teenagers (their families if the truth be known) will have to pay a $250 fine for operating an unregistered recreation vehicle and a $500 for operating recreation vehicles without mandated ...

Low-wage workers in service industries without proper medical benefits and sick leave will risk getting sick or spreading the virus For over 30 years, Joyce Barnes has worked as a home healthcare aide in Richmond, Virginia, without any paid sick days. She makes $8.25 an hour and often works through illnesses because she can’t afford to lose income from taking the time off. “I can’t afford to miss pay so I have gone to work before several times sick as a dog, masked up so my patients wouldn’t catch what I have,” Barnes said. “Every day I pray and I ask God to give me strength that I won’t get sick so I can keep on making it and that’s the way we have ...

California Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters went nuts this week -- which isn't a surprise to most people who have been paying attention. While speaking to CNN's Manu Raju on Wednesday from Capitol Hill, Waters angrily declared that Trump is a “liar” who should “shut his mouth” on the coronavirus outbreak. Waters said, “It’s been said over and over again that you cannot trust this president. Not only is he a liar, he does not believe in anything scientific.” She added, “So the President of the United States cannot be relied upon. Someone said he needs to be quiet. He needs to shut his mouth. And he should do that and allow CDC and NIH and ...

Super-rich jet off to disaster bunkers amid coronavirus outbreak Like hundreds of thousands of people across the world, the super-rich are preparing to self-isolate in the face of an escalation in the coronavirus crisis. But their plans extend far beyond stocking up on hand sanitiser and TV boxsets. The world’s richest people are chartering private jets to set off for holiday homes or specially prepared disaster bunkers in countries that, so far, appear to have avoided the worst of the Covid-19 outbreak. Many are understood to be taking personal doctors or nurses on their flights to treat them and their families in the event that they become infected. The wealthy are also besieging ...

(Nutsy Squirrel) Joe Biden, the Chauncey Gardner of American politics, the guy Elwood P. Dowd thinks is cracked, used to be sort of amusing. Except he’s not amusing anymore. His decline is sad to see, but the obnoxious sense of unearned entitlement he projects – as demonstrated by his outrage over that uppity working-class guy who dared question the ancient job applicant – is intolerable. Buzz off, you crusty, credit card company-shilling jerk. Think about the image his latest confrontation projected, of a guy who sweats while he works getting an incoherent, finger-wagging lecture from a pompous clown steamed that this peasant isn’t on his knees genuflecting before ...

WASHINGTON, D.C.—In real news that totally actually happened, President Trump has announced that in the interest of public safety, the 2020 presidential election has been canceled. “It’s just too risky,” President Trump told the press while standing behind a sneeze guard. “We’ll get all these people gathered together at rallies or lined up to vote, and they’re all going to get sick. And Bernie and Biden -- they’re just so old. Sending them around crowds campaiging is basically trying to murder them. Anyway, it just seems pointless for a bunch of people to die when everyone knows I was going to win anyway.” Trump has been a divisive figure in ...

He claims that he wasn’t even legally drunk. Prominent right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones was arrested early Tuesday morning on charges of driving while intoxicated, according to law enforcement.

Jones was booked into the Travis County Jail in Austin at 12:37 AM, and released on bond at 4:11 AM. Court records about Jones’s arrest weren’t immediately available. InfoWars didn’t respond to a request for comment. An ...

A Michigan mayor and longtime Republican has decided to renounce President Donald Trump in favor of former Vice President Joe Biden. The Chicago Tribune has released a profile on Michael Taylor, mayor of Sterling Heights, MI, which is situated in the middle of Macomb County, where many midwestern voters supported Trump in 2016 after voting for Barack Obama twice. Taylor has established himself as a prominent local Tea Party figure, who has always voted Republican, but he confirmed he will support Biden in the Michigan primary and the 2020 election. “I think Joe Biden is the candidate who can unify all of the Democrats, and he’s the candidate who can appeal to moderates and ...

Chicago, IL — Over the past few years, the residents of Chicago have been subjected to a militarized police state occupation. Innocent family after innocent family each waking up in the middle of the night as heavily armed storm troopers throw flash bangs into their homes, haul them outside in the cold, point guns at their heads, and even handcuff small children. These families are being terrorized in their own homes, many of them left with PTSD, and no one is being held accountable—because the state is the one behind the terror. As the following case illustrates, cops can be seen on their own body cameras breaking the law and they face no consequences. Thanks to the tireless ...
'Insane and Cruel': Watch Nurse Rip Question on How US Can Afford to Make Coronavirus Vaccine Free

Speaking at a coronavirus roundtable in Detroit Monday alongside Sen. Bernie Sanders and public health experts, registered nurse Deborah Burger forcefully shot down a question on how the United States can afford to make any COVID-19 vaccine free for everyone in the country, noting that no one asks that question of other vaccines or America's endless wars overseas. Burger, president of National Nurses United (NNU), pointed out that "nobody asked how you pay for" the Polio vaccine "because what they saw were children in iron longs that were going to be damaged forever." "How insane and cruel is it," Burger continued, "to suggest that we have to figure ...

St. Johns County, FL — In January, three St. Johns County deputies were placed on administrative leave after cell phone video surfaced of them savagely beating Christopher Butler. Predictably, police were quick to determine Butler was high on PCP but his lawyer says he was suffering from a diabetic event and was not able to follow police officer commands. Now, after video of the incident garners much deserved attention, one of the cops involved has been fired and charged. On Thursday, Sheriff David Shoar said he withdrew the commission of Deputy Anthony Deleo and then filed criminal charges against him during a use-of-force investigation. The victim’s mother, Teri Morgenstern told ...

Under the fifth and fourteenth amendments, due process clauses are in place to act as a safeguard from arbitrary denial of life, liberty, or property by the government outside the sanction of law. Despite these safeguards, innocent American citizens are routinely denied their lives, liberty and property by the state. One of the most egregious examples of said denials is the controversial and unconstitutional act of civil asset forfeiture — the act of stealing a person’s property before they have been convicted or even accused of a crime. Though it has received much deserved criticism over the years, police departments from coast to coast continue to rob people of their property ...
Opinion: If Americans Aren't Sexist, Then How Come They Refuse To Elect The Most Unlikable Women On The Planet?

The Elizabeth Warren campaign has ended, her ambition to be the first woman president done in by the same thing that sunk Hillary Clinton: sexism. Many claim America isn't sexist, but then how come they refuse to vote for the most unlikable women on the planet? Yes, people often say they’re willing to vote for a woman. But if they won’t cast a vote for some of the most unlikable women on the entire planet, will they really vote for any women ever? Many have claimed they want someone who is a woman, qualified, honest, and likable, but when they’re given a choice of someone who is one out of four, we see that sexism still rules, as they vote for a man instead. “I ...

HELL—Millions have converted to Christ upon the revelation that hell would simply be one endless ride on Disney's It's A Small World attraction. The ride will be completely unaltered except it will be hotter than the version at Disneyland. Those arriving in the place of eternal torment will be loaded on the boats and sent around. While they may think it's just the start of their stay in hell, the ride will actually never end, just going around and around for limitless eons. "We carefully considered the various forms of torture available to us but finally decided that the best punishment would simply be riding around and around hearing those infernal little ...
