Joe Biden is going to make locking people up a national policy to fight the coronavirus. No jail time, just house arrest, and nationwide mask mandates. Welcome to the Biden coronavirus response.
Lockdown
Judge Orders Church to Shutdown
A judge orders a church to shutdown. This seems pretty unconstitutional. Why is there no injunction to shutdown demonstrations in Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis, etc? Nobody is saying anything about the riots, protests, and marches.
A “So What” attitude towards the lockdown?
Published with permission from a very Loyal Reader – Kathleen LaBonte My conversation at the NH State House with a young mother with her baby, and a slightly older woman. ME: what do you know or think about Governor Sununu’s shutdown of our economy and businesses. Older woman: He needs to shut down more businesses! … Read more
If you Thought that the LA Teacher’s Union Demands (to go back to work) Was an Outlier…
Once again, it’s a union showing that they are all about the Union – not about the kids. It’s about Societal Change, and teaching “Social Justice” not academics. It is not about educating your kids.
Notable Quote – Bjorn Lomberg
For decades, climate activists have exhorted people in the wealthy West to change their personal behavior to cut carbon emissions. We have been told to drive less, to stop flying and, in general, to reduce consumption—all in the name of saving the planet from ever higher temperatures.
Democrat Rule – Rights for “Me” Few or None for “Thee”
Liberal Privilege has many faces, but they all look the same. They are right, and you are wrong. Their science beats your science. Their observations are ‘News,’ and yours are conspiracy theories or lies. Truth is Hate Speech. And when it comes to COVID, everyone gives up their rights except their protesters.
“Some rob you with a gun, while others rob you with a pen – We ain’t paying crap.”
Civil Disobedience – it’s always a “thing” with the Left. Don’t like something, especially when a Republican is in charge? Demonstrate, protest, break the law – usually for some type of Left-wing mantra that will leave the rest of us poorer, take freedoms away, or lower our standard of living.
69% Say Political Response to COVID-19 was an Unnecessary Overreaction
Our most recent poll asked a simple question. Was the Response to COVID-19 Justified or an Unnecessary Overreaction? Given what we know or even knew just a few weeks in our answer to that was yes, but we wanted to ask around and see if it was just us.
New Poll Question: Was the Response to COVID-19 Justified or an Unnecessary Overreaction?
Here’s a poll question for the times. As we find ourselves waking up from the hangover of COVID-19 induced quarantine, was it worth it? Did we do some good or ruin our lives (the economy) for nothing?
FB Doodlings – Who chooses?
In almost all things, I try to view events or happenings of the day from base Principles. I guess it is the engineer in me combined with having watched, as a political blogger, too many politicians, and bureaucrats say and do say lots of words to get you to “oh, ok” WITHOUT necessarily allowing you to realize “ok…WHAT???”
Thank You Riots – You Just Activated Tens of Millions of Americans to Reject Local Political Lockdowns
The sleeping beast is not what you think. It’s middle of the road voting Americans. Those so-called moderates who, regardless of race, voluntarily follow the rules, even when they feel there’s something fishy. But law-abiding citizens got a taste of the left’s hypocrisy sandwich with the protests and riots, and I’m betting they are not amused.
Blogline of the Day – Governor Sununu: Antifa over Church
Emphasis mine: …Sununu is not the only governor who is keeping his state locked down while supporting Black Lives Matter and Antifa rallies that blatantly violate bans on large group gatherings. …If that’s all a little confusing to you, then I’m glad I’m not the only one bemused here. These governors seem to be saying … Read more
Results: 90% Said No More State of Emergency – I Guess We Need a New Legislature
The question, with the deadline for renewal approaching, was, “Given what we know now, Should Gov Sununu Extend the NH State of Emergency Another 21-Days?” Our response and the majority of yours was a resounding no.
Time for Bolduc, Mayberry, Messner and Mowers to Pick a Side.
Unless something changes drastically between now and Election Day, I plan on skipping right past the Governor’s race when I vote. If you have read my posts, you already know why … Sununu’s COVID policy. In brief, as I posted a little while ago, COVID … per the CDC, not per me … is less … Read more
So, What Does “Safe” Mean, Anyway?
We’ve heard a lot of talk about masks, social separation, constant washing of hands, etc. We’ve been told that these extra “protective measures” are needed “until it’s safe.”
This Meme About California Reminds me of Nashua and Jan Schmidt
First, it speaks to the idiocy of the Progressive Government. Petty and vindictive, with the promotion of things and actions we used to assign stigma to informally protect traditional society from “infections” that twist it into the Left’s own image. In this, I thought of Steve’s post on Jan Schmidt and Nashua.
Judge Rules Ohio’s COVID Response is Impermissibly Arbitrary, Unreasonable, and Oppressive
Judge Eugene Lucci has some unpleasant things to say about how Ohio exercised or assumed powers to which he claims it is not entitled after 35 gyms took the state to court over threats of punishment for reopening against the will of the state.
The Beatings Will Continue Until Morale Improves
Our reward for having the engine of the economy shutdown is promises of more money to bail out those impacted by the shutdown. Money from where when there’s little to no productivity to tax? No worries. The experts are on it. Just nod and smile under your mask. Don’t forget to bleat!
Op-Ed: In America, the government is submissive to the people
I was in the process penning a letter condemning the rash of totalitarian behavior of liberal governors, mayors, and judges across America when I saw Robert Azzi’s latest ignorant, bigoted, intolerant rant.
How to Help Your Small Business Survive Lockdown
For many across the United States, the lockdown has been a challenge – emotionally, socially, and commercially. With so few people heading into stores, and fewer trading with your small business online, you’re finding that you’re unable to support your workers and your business interests, and you’re quickly losing profits and slipping into debt. In … Read more
