[Hidden Content] From the article: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced Thursday she's creating a new House committee to oversee the coronavirus response that will have subpoena power to seek information from the Trump administration. "It would have subpoena power that’s for sure. It's no use having a committee unless you have subpoena power," Pelosi, D-Calif., said Thursday during a teleconference call with reporters. "And we would hope that there would be cooperation because this is not a kind of an investigation of the administration it's about the whole [response]." Here we go again...smh.

I knew what you were getting at...lol. Agree 100% with this post. Sadly, everything is about votes.

Bugs can't vote.

[Hidden Content] From the article: But only a few hours after Zucker’s comments became public, Lemon contradicted his boss on “CNN Tonight” by suggesting the liberal network shouldn't carry Trump's daily coronavirus briefings because they've become his "new rallies." "I'm not actually sure, if you want to be honest, that we should carry that live. I think we should run snippets. I think we should do it afterwards and get the pertinent points to the American people because he's never, ever going to tell you the truth," Lemon told his colleague Chris Cuomo during their nightly handoff. TDS in the worst way...lemon wants to highlight the "pertinent" points of Trump's briefings and report them to his 8 viewers...I'm sure that would be fair and balanced. What a loser.

Any proof of this and if so, enlighten us with the big picture.

Not holding my breath, for sure.

Did he shut down traffic from China very early on and get heavily criticized by the left for doing it? Simple yes or no question.

Wow, just read through the thread...prayers and strength for you and family, good to hear about the last report.

Very sad, strength and prayers for the Westbrook family.

Strength and prayers.

Absolutely right, and remember he got hammered for shutting down travel from China when it was 100% the right thing to do. He can't win with the media and the lefties...good thing he doesn't care.

It continues to amaze me that we have become a society that automatically looks to the fed gov for all answers. Something like this happens and it is the responsibility of the fed gov to have had tens of millions of face-masks and coronaviris test kits stored in a bunker somewhere. No one saw this coming and Trump is doing a good job of handling it IMO...if this happened under Obama and he handled it the same way, the media would be praising him but since it's Trump, he can do nothing right.

[Hidden Content] Wait for it..."Trump holding up aid for those that desperately need it!"

Yep...smh. [Hidden Content]

[Hidden Content] Related to earlier posted articles...as if we needed any more proof that Democrats are not concerned with public interest or safety. From the article: Democrats overnight had blocked the massive economic rescue package, teeing up new negotiations Monday morning. But issues having nothing to do with coronavirus have become impediments to the relief package, according to a senior Republican aide. “As Leader Schumer continues to hold up the desperately-needed relief package, the last-minute list of demands from Pelosi’s and Schumer’s ideological wish list are coming into focus,” the aide said. These include new collective bargaining powers for unions, higher fuel emissions standards for airlines, and expanded wind and solar tax credits. Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., confirmed this on Twitter Monday morning after the same information was tweeted by TownHall.com political editor and Fox News contributor Guy Benson. "This report is correct. Pelosi & Schumer are willing to risk your life, your job, your retirement savings for a radical, left-wing wish list that has nothing to do with this virus," Cotton said. "Disgraceful." “Not only are these completely unrelated to the coronavirus epidemic, they could prevent companies from participating in the loan programs altogether—directly causing unnecessary layoffs,” the aide said.

The Democrats haven’t been concerned about public interest in a long time. Most recently, they would have allowed traffic from China to the US to remain business as usual just to try and make Trump look bad. Good thing Trump went ahead and did what was good for public interest and safety. Power always trumps public interest and safety with the Democrats. Sad, but true.

I'm not disagreeing that this is a bad deal, but I also am not going to believe everything I hear just because they supposedly have "top" credentials. The WHO and the clown running it have a lot of responsibility in not slowing this down by running cover for their buddies in China at the very outset. They are also the same group that proclaimed France and Italy were #1 and #2 for the best healthcare systems a few years back. Just because some are skeptical of some sources in this doesn't mean they think it's nothing...that's certainly not my opinion. I will add that I think the media has caused much hysteria that we see, but that's just business as usual.

Good post...like everything, scientific "facts" are only as good as the "scientist" that is interpreting them.

The John Hopkins website is an excellent source for information...great format.

We are OK with government assistance as long as it benefits those that actually need it and it isn't multi-generational support.

Might have to buy it on the black market.

[Hidden Content] From the article: “This is a Democratic district. Let’s have a Real Democrat fighting for us,” Newman tweeted Monday, including infographics showing how Lipinski’s past votes against Obamacare and for restricting access to women’s reproductive healthcare are at odds with her own support for universal healthcare and greater access to abortions. You're not a "real" Democrat unless you're all in on murdering babies.
