  1.  @kdapson1452  ..Honest question: What do you think Trump should have done differently?

  2. If your mental health suffers from a one hour time change you've got far bigger problems.

  3. "Catching it despite never being in close contact with someone who was known to be infected". What an idiotic and misleading statement from ABC. The virus takes weeks to show itself. Clearly the person was in contact with someone who was infected, whether it was "known" is irrelevant.

  4. Disagree. He's 'owning' it as any good leader would, but this is all petty politics by the Dems. Both Obama and Hillary saw the cost-effectiveness of expanding permanent barriers on the border. And remember, all federal employees who work during the shutdown will eventually get back pay. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/01/11/congress-approves-back-pay-eventually-for-furloughed-federal-employees/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.6b68e7e173e3

  5. Mosquitoes are responsible for about a million deaths globally each year. They're the insect deserving of the "murder" title.

  6.  @DjPruneJuice214  ..Lol, you’re wrong on two levels; 1. I would never “pray”. It’s the exact equivalent of throwing a coin into a wishing well. 2. There’s been hundreds of God stories in human history and even if I was delusional enough to start praying I’d have no clue which myth to follow.

  7. Liberal media really want people to think the sky is falling. It's an election year. Here's some of the facts you'll never hear them talk about. - The symptoms are so mild for the vast majority of people, they need a test to find out if they even have Covid. - Over 99% of people under 55 without underlying health conditions survive. Not unlike pneumonia and the flu. - Hospitalization rates are less than 5% for the vast majority of cases, for all age groups. - Over 96% of people (of all ages) survive. - More kids have died this year from the flu and pneumonia than Covid. - Covid deaths since Feb. are about .04% of the population. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/index.htm

  8. Suggesting increased border security rather than an effective border barrier is exactly like suggesting we should leave our front doors unlocked and rely completely on the police to prevent theft. The Dem's are playing politics. Both Obama and Hillary wanted a border barrier. It's estimated illegal immigrants/amnesty costs America well over $50 billion per year. And that's an old 2013 estimate (link below). Not to mention drug and human trafficking. A border barrier won't eliminate all issues... but it sure as hell will reduce them significantly. Even if it only cuts the $50 billion in half, the wall more than pays for itself in the first year. @t​

  9. It's pretty convenient to only be accountable to a fictional character. All the pedo priests and their enablers at the Vatican are getting away with crimes because parents are still brainwashing and indoctrinating their children into the cult.

  10. @Patriot From Texas ..Rationalizing the God delusion as a "virtue" is part of the problem. Morality doesn't need fictional stories and characters. And I can't disagree more with your statement there's "goodwill in teaching youth to follow religious doctrine". Are you suggesting ALL religious doctrines contain goodwill and righteousness?

  11. Meanwhile, between 20,000 and 40,000 have died from the seasonal flu this year, including over 100 children. (US numbers) Grab some perspective people. We need to continue to take this virus very seriously for the foreseeable future, but the sky isn't falling.

  12. Question: Why isn't anyone talking about the possibility of massive voter fraud by Republicans and Trump supporters? Answer: Because we all know the chances of Democrats and Biden getting illegal votes is FAR more likely.

  13. Where's the MSM story on the "staggering" number of people who've survived the virus with little to no symptoms? Or the "staggering" number of people (over 95%) who don't need hospitalization. Or the "staggering" number of people (over 99%) who will survive if they don't have underlying health conditions? https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/index.htm

  14.  @KitEKat-io9vu  ..The point of my comment is there are many brainwashed Democrat voters (and RINOs) who took AOC's acting performance in Congress (and her need for therapy) as meaning she was in the Capitol and in imminent danger.

  15.  @KitEKat-io9vu  ..AOC is a serial liar who uses victimhood and identity politics to play on peoples emotion. It's sad you don't see it.

  16. Would you prefer Trump dictate what every State does?

  17. So... Bernie once again trots his go-to lies about Trump. For example, calling him a "racist" and a "religious bigot". There's zero evidence of Trump being a racist that isn't either a lie, presumption or quote taken completely out of context. And the "religious bigot" lie is based on the delusional belief Trump's travel ban on 7 Muslim countries was due to their religion. It wasn't, just like when Obama enacted the exact same travel ban. Bernie relies on the infamous "low information" voter in the Democrat base to keep believing his lies and hate.

  18. Maybe the vaccine will cure Fauci's selective memory.

  19.  @Dolcevita_bakes  ..I agree. It's unfortunate that Harris, Warren etc are constantly bringing it up.

  20. Another good example of why Youtube should allow the thumbs down icon to register.

  21. Biden's handlers will be leveraging this report to keep the Democrat voter base afraid...and in line.

  22. Nope. The context of his use of the word hoax was the Democrat's attacks on his response to Covid. He said it was just like their impeachment hoax. Look it up.
    4
  23. Well, the Democrats abused Congressional powers and spat on the Constitution with a 100% partisan impeachment that wasn't based on a crime...so Trump gets a free one.

  24. Cuomo's incompetence and inaction helped make New York a global epicenter for the pandemic. I think that's another key lesson.

  25. I find your comment offensive.

  26. A skydiver recently died when his parachute didn't open. The autopsy showed he had Covid 19. Official cause of death: Covid 19. (fake story, real problem)

  27. Religion and the delusional belief in Gods remains a poison on humanity.

  28. A few facts you won't hear from fear mongering media (source below): 1. Of the deaths officially attributed to Covid thus far, about 48,000 were people who also had pneumonia. 2. The mortality rate is now less than 1%. 3. Only 7% of the deaths attributed to Covid thus far have it listed as the "only cause". In other words, there were other underlying health factors for the other 93%. 4. Weekly deaths have been falling like a stone since mid April. The number of cases is only part of the story. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/index.htm

  29. Seek help for your TDS.

  30. The only data I want to hear is the percentage of people who've died primarily because they had underlying health conditions. Including the % who were obese or smokers (weed, vaping, cigs). Where is that data?!

  31. "The only thing to fear is fear itself"--Roosevelt The quote is appropriate for the sky-is-falling people who are unable or unwilling to look at the facts. For example, 10 years ago 60 million were infected and 13,000 died from H1N1...in our country alone. Do you recall the same widespread panic then? I sure don't. The VAST majority of people who've caught COVID have recovered. Relax, be smart, wash your hands, don't go visit people who've recently traveled to hi-risk countries and you'll be fine. This too will pass.

  32. You're 'literally' wrong. He provided thanks to all the people working on the task force. He acknowledged California and New York leaders for their work and ongoing relationship (a very non-partisan comment), reminded everyone of why declaring the national emergency was important... And that's just the first two minutes. Try to put aside your TDS for a moment..and learn.

  33. dafttool ..Asylum seekers can avoid poor conditions in detention centres by not crossing our border illegally. There’s plenty of processes for them to apply...and get in line like everyone else. Imagine the $Billions we’d save if we could better control immigration and asylum with, I don’t know, maybe a complete border barrier?....:/

  34. Agree. And I laughed out loud seeing the headline. Sanders saying someone else is "part of the old political establishment?!!" That is classic projection. Bernie knows he's the definition of "the old political establishment". His unicorn promises and mind-numbing demagoguery is an insult to our intelligence.

  35. Must be Teamsters.

  36. Define "caught". The claim was made by Maduro's gov't and a number of sketchy news sources. Show me a legitimate source and I might believe it.
    4
  37.  @GeronimoLogistics  ..1. I agree America has meddled in the affairs of Venezuela... and many other countries in the past. Separate discussion. 2. The link provides zero verifiable evidence of the claim the CIA delivered weapons. The point of my comment is you made a claim without a shred of valid evidence. It's illogical to repeat propaganda.

  38. The Democrat and leftist media's strategies have blown up in their faces countless times in the past 4 years. The blatant lies, fear mongering, and hate isn't working anymore.

  39. Your comment is really all that needs to be said. But unfortunately, the haters and misinformed are dominating the section. Along with the TDS crowd of course.

  40. Alternative headline: “66% disapprove of Biden’s handling of Ukraine crisis”.;

  41. There's currently over a dozen states with higher per-capita hospitalization rates than Texas.

  42. China, India, Russia and oil producing countries are LOVING our woke Democrat "leadership" on climate and energy policy.

  43. Honest question: what God-story are you referring to?
    4
  44. And using that logic, all gatherings of more than 10 or 20 people should be banned until there's a vaccine. That includes "protests".
    4
  45. 1:28...It's mind boggling how easy it is for someone who isn't a citizen of Nevada to buy an assault rifle in that State. I thought it was illegal for out-of-State citizens to buy from a gun store?

  46. John, tornadoes have been occurring for billions of years. There's about 1,000 a year worldwide. They're natural events that predate all religious God-stories. It's illogical to say they're "warnings" based on your personal superstition. Doing so is exactly like me saying the tornadoes were predicted in Astrology or by a Psychic.
    4
  47. It was a lot of fear mongering crap. Par for the course these days. People should be asking one question right now: What percentage of deaths attributed to Covid 19 were people with serious underlying health conditions, were smokers (weed, vape, cigs) or obese, or also had the common cold or flu when they died? The answer is we don't really know. The latest CDC data indicated 94% of deaths attributed to Covid 19 don't have any details on underlying conditions. In other words...the number of deaths attributed directly to the virus is HIGHLY misleading.

  48. They'd be attacking Trump if he did nothing. ABC is rapidly becoming the new CNN in terms of bias and propaganda.

  49. The Franklin quote is one of the most misused in history. He was talking about taxation. Specifically, he was criticizing the Penn family (yep, that Penn family, from which we have Pennsylvania) for refusing to pay taxes to support the war effort. https://www.npr.org/2015/03/02/390245038/ben-franklins-famous-liberty-safety-quote-lost-its-context-in-21st-century
