    The drive to defund and cripple the irs is deeper and more shrill than the calls for defunding police.

    This opens grift for the wealthy and maddening rage for the responsible

    Uncle Sam getting poorer and sicker with the exceptional slop it feeds itself.

    I thought this was a pretty good interview. Chris Wallace asked the question to Dr. Inglesby, it seems like this holds true, otherwise a lot more cities would be having issues right now.

    This isn't the first time I think we have been warned about undercounting the numbers...

    CDC says COVID-19 cases in U.S. may be 10 times higher than reported
    The estimate comes from a nationwide look at antibody tests.

    Wouldn't that mean that the death rate is even lower than 0.5%, which is great. Our biggest enemy is hospitalization rates and the inability to take care of all the sick in the country, therefore leading to more deaths indirectly to CoVID.

    Does such a statistic exist? For example, in NY when **** hit the fan, their paramedics stopped trying to revive people that may have had cardiac arrest, therefore those individuals died due to whatever led to cardiac arrest, but the death could be indirectly tied to COVID since during normal times that person may have survived if such a policy wasn't in place. Just curious.

    Have you ever considered the possibility that man could be virus made?

    People did. Scientists checked. And, no. CV-19 is not man made.

    But if you want to believe that George Soros worked with a Wuhan lab to create CV-19 so that Trump will lose re-election and make Bill Gates a trillionaire from CV-19 vaccines that he has spent the last 10 years developing ....

    this is fascinating data. And I suspect it’s accurate. My thought is that this virus swept through most of the country in February, March and April, and far more people got it, but most symptoms were either nonexistent or very mild so they didn’t know they had it. This would also support why the country’s daily deaths have been declining since April (sharply). Of course it also suggest the virus is far less deadly than “the experts” predicted.

    Antibody testing studies have disproved this idea, but I wish it was true. I just want some real good news.

    I’ve said repeatedly that about 30% of Americans are the dumbest, vile people. Here they are.

    Let’s not forget that Greg Abbott and Dan Patrick are schmucks.
