Something REALLY stinks in China and Iran, and it’s not just the burning bodies.
The TIMELINES simply don’t add up. They are FALLING APART. And you know it’s REAL because somebody is racing to rescue it.
Facebook is now cracking down on “unapproved” posts about the CoronaVirus.
Yeah, Chinaberg. I can do the math.
There was a point, recently, where I found that I could explain a LOT MORE about COVID-19 by abandoning China’s version of events, and coming up with my own. Part of that was explaining my own SARS-like symptoms, from a definite Corona infection that I picked up in mid-January at an “Iran-connected” meeting. Of course, at THAT time, we knew nothing about Iran.
But how could that be? It doesn’t fit the TIMELINE.
Good thing I stayed out of nursing homes for two weeks, thanks to a 5-day induction period, and having seen the DEADLY GRAPH of COVID morbidity vs. age, but it was close. My friend Suspicious Cat may have saved a few old veterans.
vigilanti semper
I’m still not breathing right, by the way. THAT bugs me. It feels very “SARS”.
My wife and neighbor did well, but my neighbor’s wife was hit pretty hard. I think that she, like me, is an ex-smoker.
But it’s more than personal. Things just don’t add up – and I’m not just talking about the NUMBERS, which are OFF. The numbers are showing too many positives too fast in the wrong countries and specific people – meaning those who generally seem too “helpful” to China and Iran if they caught it.
Bolsonaro? Oh, as soon as I saw that near-hit, I realized that I could WRITE THAT OPERATION. The VECTOR DEFLECTOR on that one – oh – that was “too smart”. Y’all know what I’m sayin’? Oh, that was SLICK. I smell Chinese intelligence ALL OVER that.
No – it’s more than just the numbers.
The Chinese communists and the Iranians – poor victims? No. This doesn’t sniff right. Mass graves in Iran that are the BAD GUYS and not the INNOCENT GOOD GUYS? No. That doesn’t sniff right. Execution-style gunfire recorded by half-hidden phones in China, then disappearing from the Fake News here? No. That doesn’t sniff right.
Young doctors dying and disappearing in China? Hmmmm. Maybe there ARE explanations. Maybe these are the SAME duplicitous ChiComs and the SAME scheming Iranians we’ve always known – SNEAKY – LYING – FAKING – HOAXING – TRICKING – and Fake News is simply helping to sell ONE MORE SOCIALIST / GLOBALIST NARRATIVE.
YES. That’s where I am now. There is a NARRATIVE coming from China, Iran, and the Fake News, and I no longer buy it.
How do we know they weren’t political prisoners from recent uprisings? With or without death by coronavirus?
I suppose we can thank Rod Rosenstein’s sister, Neutron Nancy, for her early attitude on testing, which OH SO UNFORTUNATELY hid any cases in the United States other than NARRATIVE cases involving cruise ships. And THANK YOU GAIL for that piece of the puzzle, because THAT really helped me see things. They wanted it here. And they wanted it to STICK.
Sorry, this is all bullshit.
And now – NOW – I’m hearing that I’m not the only author here who had a NASTY, NOVEL, RESPIRATORY DISEASE in December or January, where the only reason NOT to think it was probably COVID 19, is the CHINESE / IRANIAN / FAKE NEWS narrative timeline.
SIDEBAR: I am asking all people here who think they may have gotten COVID-19 outside of the Fake News timeline, including those who previously shared information, to please re-post a description of their experience HERE for it to be available to researchers who find this post. The more non-personal details provided, the better.

It took ONE OR TWO PEOPLE here to start questioning the ChiCom narrative openly, and all of a sudden – BOOM – many of us who were PRIVATELY questioning it, start questioning it BIGLY and PUBLICLY.
NOW do you see why Mark Chinaberg is having an emergency over at Facebook? They have to shut this stuff down. And they CAN.
That is the beauty of socialist media. Just like China, they can shut it down. Just like 2016, they can support THE HOAX. They have complete control.
Well, too bad, Mark. WE’RE going to discuss it here. We need SKEPTICISM to figure out what’s going on.
SO – I am inviting everybody here to BE HONEST – spill it. What are your thoughts – your speculations – your theories – your questions – your ideas – your inspirations – your absolutes – your certainties – your uncertainties – your fears – your doubts – your revelations – your own experiences – EVERYTHING you think about the CHINESE / IRANIAN / FAKE NEWS narrative surrounding this virus, and what you think is REALLY going on.
Let’s brainstorm this stuff until ChiComs and Fake News Hoaxers are wetting their undies.
SPILL!

Right now, many people are suffering grave confusion about the corona virus. They are NOT exhibiting what I now believe would be calm, constructive, aware, and SURVIVAL-BOUND [for everybody] patterns of thinking. They are in fact headed for trouble of their own making.
If not trouble for themselves, then trouble for others.
Many of you should prepare to be pissed off by what I say next.
At the one end, of what I regard as “wrong on corona”, are people who say “it’s all a hoax” – typically from the comfort of an age group that is unlikely or less likely to die. Yeah, they’re right – there IS a lot of bullshit here – TOTALLY ADMITTING THAT – and the enemies of Trump are pushing that bullshit hard. But remember – the SNEAKIER weapon than a purely disinformative pimping of a normal virus, is an ACTUAL BAD VIRUS, because then it can be weaponized for ALL KINDS OF ERROR.
Too much response. Too little response. Or just WRONG RESPONSE.
But yes, there are still some who believe corona is a COMPLETE hoax – that the whole world has turned a 100% nothingburger into a 100% fake “impossibleburger”. For them it is ALL a hoax. They will believe nothing else. They will FIGHT YOU over even the strongest and most scientific indication that there is a real virus that kills people of some age – of ANY age – more strongly than a normal bad flu. They are RELIGIOUSLY opposed to believing this thing has ANY reality. They are reactive to any argument, almost to the extent that shills are reactive to any argument.
My advice? Walk away – stay away – don’t invite them anywhere near you or those you love. Such people are not going to give a shit when they accidentally kill you or your parents in assisted living. They may be nice people, but they are dangerously myopic, and you cannot afford to be around such people right now. The accidentally infective are bad enough. The willfully infective are an unnecessary risk.
At the other end, are the people who think we’re all gonna die. These people are simply wrong. They – like the “no danger” crowd – are a RISK.
Watch this entire clip for maximum benefit.
Notice how only TWO PEOPLE are thinking AHEAD here – (1) the woman who understands the math and science of momentum, and (2) the child who understands animal behavior from experience.
Others are acting SMART, for the most part, but only two are THINKING AHEAD in a CONSTRUCTIVE MANNER when CRISIS HITS.
Yeah, it’s just a movie, but we relate to it because we see this stuff all the time. The reason I am here with you right now, is because I directed people how to apply first aid to ME when I could not. COOL HEADS SURVIVE.
So where are MOST OF US on the coronavirus?
Most of us are in the middle, where we are over-reacting in some ways, under-reacting in others, and generally located somewhere on the first 4 stages of THIS CURVE:
Scott Adams was one of the first and best “Trump Whisperers” and “Trumpsplainers”. He demonstrated a powerful ability to help us make sense of Trump’s weird election magic, during 2015 and 2016. As Adams explained, Trump is one of the greatest “persuaders” of all time.
If you followed Scott on Trump, which generally meant following Scott on Twitter or his own website, then you know what I’m talking about.
Let me tell you right now – following Scott Adams on the coronavirus will be one of the BEST moves you ever made in your life.
Thanks to my anti-#WuhanVirus health and fitness plan, I feel spectacular. Lots of sleep. Daily walks in the sun. Light weight-training. Clean diet. Social isolation (reduces stress too!)
Turns out I was almost following Scott’s plan, but not quite. I had the [physical world] social isolation stuff down, but not all of the other stuff as good as it could be.
This guy knows his shit. He’s very persuasive, just like Trump, because he knows how AWESOME a weapon TRUTH is.
Do yourself a favor and follow him.
NOW – time to show you nine other people who are very good follows on Twitter, to stay ahead of things. One or two tweets from each.
HERE WE GO.
2 – John Carlos Baez – physicist
John Baez is a very no-nonsense guy. He doesn’t suffer crackpots, and he’s even brusque and unfriendly toward “woo woo” physics types when they pull out the antimatter drive. Much of the time, his lack of diplomacy about saying what needs to be said annoys me, being that I am more of an eye-roll comforter and interpreter of crackpots. However, right now, we need a BITCHSLAP, and Baez is the guy to deliver it.

Amazing! What South Korea is doing is really bending their #Covid19 epidemic curve. Only 131 new cases today, versus 909 on Feb. 29. It's not just China. This clearly can be done. https://t.co/sueAO9XLF7pic.twitter.com/Bw7WX1s9nM
Yeah, don’t think for a moment that I’m not capable of CYNICALLY SYMPATHIZING with the two extremes I just dissed. I just do so from the position of STARK REALISM that both are right on some mutually exclusive things, so they can’t both be right on all things.
Andrew Torba and Gab have been kicked to the curb by so many dupes, foils, useful idiots, and controlled opposition groups – to say nothing of the very ENEMIES of those groups – that they have vision through complexities that most people don’t even begin to see as PRESENT.
I only suggest following him if you can HANDLE him, and – quite frankly – most cannot. However, viewpoints like Torba’s are actually a form of vaccination against many mental pathologies such as PC, so I really recommend following him if you can even BARELY STAND him.
My prediction? You will eventually admire him – even if at a distance.
5 – The Last Refuge (Sundance)
If you’re HERE, then you know why you probably need to be following SD on Twitter.

Part of being a survivor is TRULY getting over lingering animosities. This allows you to THINK CLEARLY.
LOGICAL THINKING. You should be paying attention to Sundance right now. It’s LOGICAL.
At the very least, you can watch Sundance educate people on all the things they need educating on.
🤔…"All of these decisions to cancel events, close schools or postpone opening days have been made by state, local and private sector leaders."…

Sharyl, in my opinion, has been one of the BRAVEST and most independent voices in medical reporting EVER. In my opinion you cannot be getting the complete picture without getting her take on things.
Yeah, you may be wise to the fact that Jack Posobiec is some kind of mystery shill, behind his journalism gig, but I DON’T CARE – you will get the good stuff from him, even when he’s in “DISINFO MODE”, and in that event you just reinterpret him.
Right now, you will get a lot of good stuff. Stick with him.

This is the guy who spotted how the Democrats and Deep State were weaponizing the red-green axis to try to get rid of President Donald Trump. He warned Trump, was discovered by globalist dupe General McMaster, and was fired. This says it all, right there.
Nobody is doing a better job of fighting the weaponized, anti-Trump, anti-MAGA, Fake News CHEERLEADERS OF DOOM, than our Trump “braggist” Bill Mitchell.
I'm here practically 24/7 fighting against the lies and hype surrounding the COVID-19 panic. The media over-reaction is intended to break the Trump economy!
If I helped you in 2016 and you appreciate my voice now, please donate generously. Thanks! 🙂https://t.co/uUFXfxuV2D
This guy is a wonderful man and he is CALMING PEOPLE DOWN. Yeah, he’s technically over-calming on the elderly, but that is a small-potatoes sin in my book. There are so many who are hyping it up big, and so few who are 95% right like this guy, so I have to support the 95% right.
Ok, enough is enough. The ONLY reason mortality for COVID-19 is 3.5% in the USA is the lack of broad testing. ONLY the sickest are being tested – that means more of that group will die. In S. Korea they test thousands and thousands and the mortality rate is .7%. https://t.co/o78THfu5z5
You can feel free to talk back gently and respectfully to Bill – he WILL NOT BAN YOU! So GET IN THE CONVERSATION! Follow Bill Mitchell.
10 – OUR DAUGHN!!!
Stunned by how uninformed pundits are on subject of COVID-19. We've done 5 threads, mostly weekly, thus far. Here is an accumulation of links, video, over 100 sources, analyzing the economic AND medical impact of the virus. Be informed, not fearful.https://t.co/EtEvVy8fsY
You’ve been following Daughn’s articles here, but THAT IS NOT ENOUGH. Before those articles happen, she is out on Twitter interacting with all the big names and FIGURING OUT WHAT’S NEXT…..

Is THAT why the CCP shut down the military academy 3 weeks prior, to protect them, before telling the general public? Because the CCP KNEW, and let the disease progress, allowed people to travel over New Yr and infect the whole world. Xi MUST resign for this failure.
Not afraid to take on WAKE UP MAGGIE and a whole assortment of VILLAINS….
Bwhwhhhaaa, Maggie used to only claim she could read Trump's mind. Now, she claims she can read his supporters minds as well. No Maggie, I took it to mean inducements to bring biz back to the USA, specifically medical supplies.
in which Wolf Moon introduces several new and not-so-new characters who he may or may not actually know, as political gossiptainment
We begin with a reminder of my dear sister Fox Moon, who managed to get herself into a previous weird post which dealt with the an absolutely beautiful and eminently believable TROLL of the Green New Deal.
Yes, indeed – “we don’t have to eat them now“. More on that later in this post, believe it or not.
ANYWAY – someday you’ll hear the full story of dear Sis, but not today.
These railroad tracks you see in this picture meander close to a certain community wherein you can find Fox, as well as additional canine relatives of Wolf, namely Coyote Moon and Dog Moon. Obviously we’re all related, but if you had to guess which one of us is the most domesticated, just going by the metaphor, you would probably pick wrong.
Coyote and Dog have a love-hate thing, and – well – the family just puts up with the nonsense. Kinda cute, but it gets old. ENTYWHO, it is through Dog, bless her nutty heart, that I became aware of my most excellent source, who I have nicknamed POL Garbageman, in the same style as ENT Lawyer (“ENTY“) of “CDAN” fame.
Let’s go backwards on that to explain who in the hell POL Garbageman – affectionately known as POLY (i.e., like “ENTY“) – might be.
CDAN stands for “Crazy Days and Nights“, one of THE BEST Hollywood gossip blogs. It is allegedly put out by an “entertainment lawyer” – hence ENT Lawyer – hence ENTY.
You may have heard of ENTY from NEON REVOLT, who is also a “Hollywood” persona, and who has popularized ENTY in ANON circles. This right here is useful reading.
The equivalent of Q drops in CDAN world is a thing called “blind items“, wherein ENTY posts a scandalous story with just enough information that “those in the know” can figure out who he’s talking about. After it eventually becomes obvious to EVERYBODY who was being talked about, typically through developing legal troubles, ENTY will then confirm the actual identities with a “reveal”.
You can click on the picture or the link for a closer look.
Are you with me?
OK.
Now, what ENTY is to high-powered entertainment and political scandals, POLY is to bush league, grass-roots, who-in-the-hell-are-these-people political scandals in ONE SMALL FLYOVER COMMUNITY that happens to be – unfortunately for all involved – right in the center of a MASSIVE firefight between Republicans and Democrats in a swing state.
So when you see WOLF’S ears perk up about stuff in that place – well – it means that WOLF is about to have a STORY and POLY has most likely been ON THE JOB.
Ah, yes. As you can see by the above image, my dear sister has a real sense of humor about this dysfunctional relationship, but what the hell – in this paleface world of encroaching civilization, Fox steals cat food [read: gets juicy leads from “moonstruck” suits] and Wolf does a little “dumpster diving”. Coyote yips and Dog howls. All is well in Moon Meadows. Pocahontas wishes she had a fraction of the action found on the Moon Tribe Reservation, where Suspicious Cat always has a home with his canine friends.
Anyway, POL Garbageman’s blind items are sometimes discernible to those who are familiar with politics in “a certain swing state”. Now – one has to be careful – a lot of the CRAP that “Amazing POLY” (the Bulllova of watchmen) digs up isn’t what you think it is at first. Too-clear half-and-half in a funny deflated balloon may be – ERRRRR – something else. Likewise, something else may actually be spittle and cream in an old birthday balloon from Chuck-E-Cheese. It takes a PROFESSIONAL to sort this stuff out.
That’s where I come in.
Now – thanks to the amazing POLY, I’m in possession of two blind items which appeared to be garbage at first, but now appear to be some kind of precious metal worth recycling – possibly aluminum or even steel. Because time is short before they reach their expiration dates, I’m leaving them on a bench in the park for others to figure them out beyond what I can do.
One leads nowhere, but is interesting as hell, and typical of the politics in my dear sister’s abode. The other is potentially shocking in its ramifications, because it appears to be part of a new global hoax. And while Democrat hoaxes are a dime a dozen – even the global ones that involve millions of deaths – a new one is always good for many memes.
So let’s GO THERE. Shocking goes first, because it’s less of a mystery.
BLIND ITEM #1
This JV “aw shucks” red shirt barely got a speaking role in Star Trek: Pelosi, after a squeaker Oscar from a Trump-praised performance in the off-season nail-biter indy film District 12. Everybody thinks he’s gonna win a role in Star Trek: McCarthy, but certain virally persuasive overseas backers of the project seem to have a different idea for the next installment of the franchise – both the youngish talent and the name of the film. Two young starlets seeking the role, curiously the same age, are being sent out, like young, fresh, female versions of Mini Mike and Crazy Bernie, in a match that looks curiously like Biden vs. Bernie. Those with an opinion think it’s all Blue League Roller Derby, but nobody knows who Captain P. really plans to have star with her in the internationally-backed sequel. The last “aw shucks” blue shirt wasn’t convincing enough to get the role. Will a white AOC do it?
The young starlets both say the right things to get an audition – that it’s time to reign in the phasers and retire McCoy’s country doctor routine for whoever that guy named “O” gives you. One swears she’s almost a red shirt, and that hubs is handy with a phaser. But still – she says we gotta do something about unregulated phasers, unequal medical scanners, and unapproved, misleading fanfic. On that last item, hope you’re ready for a No. 2 pencilneck. Scary stuff. The other swears that she’s an outsider – despite money, organization, attention to process, and that old picture of her with the genius who invented the internet. One looks like she walked out of White Hatty’s Palace of Smoke and Mirrors. The other looks like an Irish version of AOC.
The red-haired AOC is running as Florence Nightingale above the fold, and curiously in time with the moment’s viral melodies coming from the overseas backers. Very convenient that they’re sending such particular casting right now – when a closer inspection shows that this particular talent may have been in the pipe for quite some time. The implications are unsettling.
BLIND ITEM #2
This character actor has played a wide variety of minor roles in local and regional theater, as well as a few years in the cinematic big time. He’s a local red shirt machine room boy from way back. Never rose above red shirt, but he has always been a popular team player. He was holding the hatchet when Tea-phoid Mary went down, so the machine could get their boy into the starring role in One of Fifty Theaters. It was a clean hit, but it was dirty politics. Dirty politics, as the last theater star bitterly called it on his way out. The karma – it burns.
Somebody wants revenge. The Mailers of Death are falling all over Fox Meadows like it’s VJ day and the bombers are on the horizon. The character actor, long ago, said unfortunate things about a man who would become No. 1 on Team Red. Those things are coming back to haunt him. Old machine things, and old machine positions, distorted in embarrassing ways, so obviously that’s not who’s behind the leaflet drop. In fact, the machine room wants him in the show, again, in a non-speaking role. But it may not be enough. If people aren’t reading their slate cards, or if the Bible-and-Gun-Cling-ons successfully decloak, this old red shirt may go where red shirts are wont to go.
The big question is, who does Red No. 1 really want here? It’s too small for an endorsement either way, and Red Shirt may not be the most Q+T-pie pick of the litter, but he wields a mean hatchet that might be useful for Blind Item #1, when the Borg arrive in the fall. Trust the Plan? Sure. Trust the Machine? Nobody knows, because nobody knows if it’s part of the Plan. Mysteries abound.
There you go. I have a strong idea what is going on here – COUGH – but I will let this sit out there for a while before I post reveals, in hopes that I’ll have better answers.
Enjoy the show. Even if it’s all kabuki.

Interesting. Pocahontas, Q, and Wolf Moon ain’t the only ones sending coded smoke signals.
This is a continued thread especially meant for reporting your ACTUAL PERSONAL ground reports – what you are SEEING and HEARING about the coronavirus, and your THOUGHTS in relation to those things.
OTHER reports of things relevant to PREPARATION, QUARANTINE, and TREATMENT are welcome.
However, please remember that the normal coronavirus thread may be a more suitable place for your comment – particularly if it is related to politics, international actions, biowarfare, investigations, virology, and origination of the epidemic.
I was at the FLYOVER GROCERY STORE again today. Same grocery chain – different store.
I was there to shop for specific items that I wanted, such as guaifenesin, and to deepen our stock of normal edible items and paper products which will keep us from having to go to the store during any local quarantine.
So YEAH – I wanted to buy a good supply of TP!!!
These are the things I observed….
About as busy as usual on a busy day, before a holiday, in the middle of the afternoon.
The carts were ALMOST all GONE from the cart bay area. This is typical when they’re busy.
Crowd behavior seemed almost but not quite normal, in contrast to complete normalcy almost two days earlier. The customers just seemed edgier than before. The crowd is a bit older on average at this store, so perhaps that’s part of why they seemed more concerned. However, I suspect that more frequent reports of identified patients in the United States is having the greatest effect here.
Normally the pharmaceutical section is almost empty of shoppers in the aisles. One or two overall. Today, three or four. There were MORE than the usual number of people looking over pharmacy products – about the same density as the rest of the store.
Overall pharmaceutical and vitamin stock was good. NO EMPTY SHELVES SEEN in that section.
I did not closely inspect vitamins – I was interested in GUAIFENESIN (Mucinex) in particular.
There were many choices in the cold and flu remedies, but I could tell that they were moving quickly, because there was evidence of a lot of inspection of products (moved, misplaced, disordered).
The CHEAP GENERIC guaifenesin was moving VERY FAST, and I had to REACH WAY BACK for a second package.
Otherwise, plenty of products.
Guaifenesin (Mucinex) now requires a DRIVER’S LICENSE – not just a date – and they are scanning the DL into the system. COUGH.
According to the clerk, this policy on this particular product began A WEEK AGO. I cannot verify this – I have never bought it before.
“Normie prepper products” are being placed in prominent displays at the ENDS OF AISLES. These items include:
crackers and other traditional, long-lasting snack products
spaghetti and other dry pasta
helper products like Hamburger Helper and Tuna Helper
dried potatoes
coffee
toilet paper and paper towels
facial tissues
canned vegetables and meats
canned soups
I did not check wipes, despite noting that they were in the end-of-row display at the other store two days ago. I did not notice them this time, but I did not check all the rows.
LOTS of OJ, all kinds present. SOME types of milk seemed to be gone.
TOILET PAPER was taking the biggest hit. Efficiency brands (like Scott) preferred by tough-assed preppers were GONE. Fluffy Charmin and other wimpy brands of that “butt-fondling” sort remained in good quantity. The generic duplicate of Scott was moving quickly in its stead, but there was plenty.
Kleenex was not hit nearly as badly as TP.
Bulk quantity packs of most other things were NOT sold out – good quantities of “cases” of things remained.
No “prepper carts” seen – mine was probably the worst, and it was “crypto-prepper”, IMO.
In contrast to normal curiosity, I felt like people were studying my cart and what I was buying more than normally, but not negatively or judgmentally. They seemed to be asking themselves if they should “stock up”.
PSYCHOLOGY. On duty and being vigilant. People are playing attention and looking for signs that it’s OK to prepare.
BIGGER IMPRESSIONS
I get the following distinct impressions, even though I have no proof of them
bigger grocery chains are working with DHS, HHS and CDC
the feds are psychologically ENCOURAGING normal, common sense stocking
the feds are psychologically DISCOURAGING panic buying
the chains are sharing data on both STOCK ITEMS and PHARMACY PRODUCTS
the feds are using the data to “make sure the spice flows”
I smell blueberry muffins somewhere, and they ain’t ours.

“Whoever made these blueberry muffins, tell them they taste just like Daughn’s!”
This is a thread for reporting your ACTUAL PERSONAL ground reports – what you are SEEING and HEARING about the coronavirus, and your THOUGHTS in relation to those things.
I’ll go first.
I was at the FLYOVER GROCERY STORE today.
These are the things I observed….
People are using the wipes on the cart handles without any self-consciousness.
Stock on freshly baked bread seemed lower than normal.
Easter candy is already out on display.
The number of people seemed normal.
Crowd behavior seemed normal.
Overall vitamin stock was FULL.
Vitamin C was dented but no items were empty – down to 2 or 3 bottles left on the shelf for some of the “economy size” items, so Vitamin C is definitely getting hit, but not OUT.
No other vitamins or supplements seemed affected.
Note that there are no COVID-19 patients in said city or region.
Orange juice stock looked normal.
All other stock looked normal.
Clorox Wipes have been placed on display at the end of the CANNED FOOD AISLE.
Wipes in the display were moving but not briskly enough to set off any alarms.
Canned food stocks are NORMAL.
Specials on mac-and-cheese, energy bars, tuna, and other “short term normie prepper” foods.
No grocery carts seemed to be of a “prepper” nature.
No panic behavior by cars or people.
So that’s it – pretty uneventful.
What say you?

Apparently, our little Coronavirus thread, and updated threads, are MILES ahead of the politicians and pundits on MSM (Sure wish we received classified briefings though, can you put in a word for us, Wolfie?) AND, I’ve found, publishing OUR link, along with a message of “We’ve been working on this issue since January. Here are 100’s of links, videos, sources, and hints. Be informed, not fearful”……… shuts down all political opposition. It’s truly stunning how ill-informed the media is on the subject (or they are intentionally misleading the public). The amount of DISINFO presents a hazard.
Nonetheless, our little thread has tremendous value, both as real information for those who are new to the subject or genuinely worried, AND for those who using the virus as a political weapon. I shared our thread today across social media. In the last 7 hours, I’ve received at least 2 dozen private messages of thanks and hundreds of short messages……. people feel better when they have information in their hands. Let’s give them information.
The current thread expires at the end of the month and I’m putting together a new one for the first week of March. Thinking we will update once a week until crisis subsides. Good idea or no?
Please, I need your contributions. Please post here, anything you have. I’ll be happy to sort it out over a long weekend and add to an updated thread. Please include a source/link, where you can and pretty please, DATE the source. I figured out a little too late that dates create a huge problem. For instance, I might type a brief sentence and say “yesterday, Laura Ingraham show”. Well, several days later, I have no idea WHICH day was “yesterday”. See what I mean?
Miss Gail Combs, I was wondering, nudge, nudge, if you could find some spare time, to provide us with a similar update like you did last time. If you can’t get it in by Sunday, I can always edit the post and add it later. Would be most appreciative. Where is Smiley2? I need you, and Aubergine, and the chemist guys, and info about air travel from FG&C, and Bakocarl’s tidbits, and everyone.
People are afraid when they don’t know what they’re dealing with, and we have reams of information. You guys pull items from Chiefio, foreign sources, etc. We always joked that QTree was an amazing collection of expertise, and we’re proving it now, when it counts. We’re fortunate to have different people with varying skill sets (medical- econ- VALUABLE hints from our grandparents- herbal medicine- Heloise-type-hints on how to keep a clean home/office) to add to the post. And it’s the only way to examine the whole problem.
Unless someone has a better idea (and heaven knows, I’m always open to a better idea), we’re going to divide the post into the following categories. If you think we need another category, let me know. This has become, very much, a group project:
The dashboard from Johns Hopkins which counts “official” cases all over the world.
Trump Administration response (the timeline and links to various agencies)
China Responses
Aggregated responses from other countries (I’m going to tear this one apart)
I’m gonna tell you about two of the GREATEST people I know. Both of them would be CUT OFF by that bastard Bloomberg and left to DIE. Both of these men served their country – one at peace, one at war. They spent the BEST YEARS OF THEIR LIVES serving ALL OF US. They did NOT serve us, during their YOUNG, HEALTHY YEARS, as Obama poets, screwing nameless girls and getting high on choom. They did NOT get rich and chase the tail like NANNY BLOOMBERG – though one of them HELPED others – HONEST MEN – get rich, and earned a nice, LIFE-SAVING retirement doing so.
These great men would be left to DIE by that nasty bastard Bloomberg, and it will happen over my dead body. I am going to tell you why this heartless Bloomberg MUST BE STOPPED.
HERE WE GO.
One of these men is now almost 100 years old – a World War II veteran. HE HELPED LIBERATE MY MOTHER and millions of others who were either in camps or destined for them. He was part of the storied American forces to which my mother and her fellow refugees ran, walked, and CRAWLED to avoid more socialism. This wonderful man spent the most formative years of his life following closely behind the front lines in World War II. He now has a hard time remembering which beach he landed on in Normandy, so we figured it out together using his memories and maps on the internet. He told me what it was like to go across the channel, to go up the cliffs, to ride the jeeps. It was like I was there. And when I was in Europe, I saw the EXACT places he slept – yards away from the famous generals we read about in history books. Men whose underlings and underlings of underlings HE reported to. And he has taught me ALL ABOUT the important things – what makes America DIFFERENT and WORTH DEFENDING.
This man is LIVING HISTORY. He is proof that the term “Greatest Generation” is no bullshit.
I have seen his medical care. Some cancer treatments would actually make sense, so that he can live to 100. So that his family – NOW approaching 50 people bearing his name, his face, or both – can have one more summer reunion with him.
He can afford it. His FAMILY would gladly afford it. Why deny it?
This great man was there at the beginning of Social Security. He heard the ORIGINAL PROMISE. But now it would appear that not every presidential candidate cares about PROMISES MADE – PROMISES KEPT. Evidently NANNY BLOOMBERG didn’t make the original promise, so he feels no obligation to even keep AMERICA’S promise.
Yeah, it may be TECHNICALLY TRUE that denying healthcare won’t be “technically” denial of social security’s promise, but that is exactly the kind of guy Bloomberg is. The SPIRIT of the law means NOTHING to him. He is still WELCHING on America’s deal, make no mistake.
My jaw just drops. If you’re wondering why New York went to hell, don’t just look at de Blasio. Look at Bloomberg. Look at “Pre-Blasio”. He started it all. He – the “former” Democrat who CLAIMED – very weirdly – to have become a Republican after 9/11 – is the one who began the true decline of New York City, to what we see today. And I say it is because Bloomberg LACKS CHARACTER. His policies were not LOVING OF THE CITY, but COLD TO ITS PEOPLE. There is a difference.
Next, we talk about another man. He is now stricken with a terrible disease. He is almost completely paralyzed – much like Stephen Hawking was. But this man lived and continues to live a very good life. He is a friend of the veteran.
This man changed your life. Not by war, but by peace. He was on the absolute forefront of applied technology which brought computers into business. When it all went electronic, he was behind it, at the cutting edge. My father worked on a different end of that emergence of computers after World War II, so this is personal on THAT side of my family as well. These men were at the very beginning. They helped make America what it was, and what it is today.
In his young days, when others were having fun, this man was working very hard, and his talents were FOUGHT OVER by the richest and most powerful men in business. He has wonderful stories about these famous men and their companies. Those men and their companies are now part of history – some gone – some still here – all of them historic. They were and are part of your lives.
This great American was very fortunate, and very wise, and put away enough money for a comfortable retirement. He’s not rich, but when the terrible disease struck, he had the money that his family needed to take care of him. He actually lives a very happy life. Spending time with him, I am in some ways envious. He lives in great beauty, comfort and ease, surrounded by Godly and upright people he helped make that way, and while he doesn’t travel as much as he used to, he is happy and funny and a joy to all who know him.
Let me spell this out so even NANNY can read and understand it.
HE INVESTED IN THIS FUTURE.
He is a wonderful person, who enjoys life, and touches the lives of everybody around him. We are ALL pulling for him to stay with us, blessing and enriching our lives.
Would Nanny Bloomberg pull the plug? I guarantee you, if this man did not have the FREE and INDEPENDENT private health insurance that HE WORKED FOR and HE PAID FOR and others want to TAKE AWAY, that cold bastard Nanny COULD and WOULD pull the plug on him. Maybe not directly, but one way or another, this man would LOSE the level of care and protection HE WORKED FOR.
Something is wrong with Nanny Bloomberg. I don’t know what it is, but he is not representative of the America that these great men, or my parents, or YOUR PARENTS fought for.
I have no idea why Nanny Bloomberg is running for office, but it is not to make this country better, let alone great. He almost seems motivated more by hatred of Trump, than by love of America.
At this point, I think it is incumbent upon us to not merely oppose Nanny Bloomberg, but to stop him. He threatens to undo the very soul of this nation. A nation which does not revere its elders – or even WORSE, is not even ALLOWED to revere its elders – is destined for ruin.
It’s time to choose to defend not just the youngest, but the oldest and weakest as well.
They EARNED our respect, and now they need our defense.
