“Optimism—even, and perhaps especially in the face of difficulty—has long been an American hallmark.” – Pamela Druckerman, Franco-American journalist and author Yes, an optimist sees a glass as half-full while a pessimist sees the same glass as half-empty.

Grokster Ed has been doing yeoman’s work in applying the Charles Murray / IHME model that is being used to set governmental policy (yesterday’s, for example, is here).

I enjoy adding nails to liberal narrative coffins. In the age of Trump, it’s actually easy. TDS drives them to take the opposite position on nearly everything, so TDS begets TRE – Target Rich Environment. Hydroxychloroquine is one such recent beast.

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D – TDS), is threatening doctors and pharmacists in her state. Anyone who writes or fills prescriptions for hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19 could find themselves on the wrong side of Michigan’s licensing board.
With up to 86 million potential infections and over 12,000 deaths in the US, it might seem odd for the Biden Website to state that Joe “helped lead the Obama-Biden Administration’s effective response to the 2009 H1N1 pandemic.” Especially when he is also claiming he was never involved.
This is from the COVID Tracking Project: The most current numbers per DHHS are: Before you “OH MY GOD, THE NUMBER OF CASES IS INCREASING BY A FACTOR OF 100 ON A MONTHLY BASIS” … it does not work that way. You have to account for the number of people tested. Working backwards using the … Read more
