“Quarantine is when you restrict movement of sick people. Tyranny is when you restrict the movement of healthy people,” Meshawn Maddock, an organizer of the protest with the Michigan Conservative Coalition, told Fox News. “Every person has learned a harsh lesson about social distancing. We don’t need a nanny state to tell people how to be careful.”

   "When somebody is president of the United States, your authority is total." 

Today's presidential meltdown was revealing,  and should provide you with all the LOL you need,  Redward.   As our Constitutional scholar,  I'm sure you'll enjoy explaining the quoted line above.
The  Constitution Does not grant the Executive Branch “ total authority “ to govern the mobility of Americans.
But the political reality is the President has the “ bully pulpit”.
Governors would be prudent to keep that in mind.
Looks like Cuomo, Newsome, et al have got the message.

Millions of mail-in ballots went missing in 2018: Report


By Stephen Dinan - The Washington Times - Monday, April 13, 2020
More than a million mail-in ballots were sent to the wrong addresses by elections officials in 2018, according to a new analysis Monday that challenged state and local officials’ rush to embrace mail-in voting amid the coronavirus crisis.

The Public Interest Legal Foundation, a conservative election watchdog, compiled data from the Election Assistance Commission and said 1.1 million ballots were deemed undeliverable in the most recent federal election, out of 42.4 million ballots mailed.

In case you were wondering why the dems are pushing for mail-in voting.


Bitch, please.

This is your source? A voter suppression front group?

Have a seat a slap yourself.
And note, of course, the were undeliverable,  meaning they were returned, and the addresses had to either request mail in ballots or vote by some other means. Since they were returned, no one unlawfully used those mail in ballots to vote. So what that group determined was that a relatively small number of people moved without notifying their board of elections. What that has to do with anything, we can leave to Red to LOL about, accuse us of not reading, and never explain.
Was that a argument FOR mail-in voting?
You may want to refine it. (A lot)
No. Take a remedial reading class and get back to us.

ZERO shortage of ventilators

ZERO shortage of ICU beds

- University of Washington

14,407 is the peak need for ventilators, according to their study.

Thanks, Laura Ingraham for pointing out the waste due to faulty info and fear.

Trial of chloroquine to treat COVID-19 stopped early due to heart complications

In the Brazilian study, some patients taking a high dose of the drug developed dangerous heart rhythm problems.

Since you aren't posting it, either ... (a) how can any of us evaluate it? (b) why complain about them?

Stay your ass home to stop the spread. Standing up for your right to be an asshole in the middle of a fucking plague is great as long is you don’t infringe on my right to life, liberty and the pursuit of not getting infected by some idiot too stupid to save his own ass.

I'm looking at results from a Google search with these terms: (french coronavirus clinical trial).

I set it for the last 24 hours, ince you implied that it was news being ignored by the main stream media.

I added hydroxychloroquine to my search.

In neither case could I find what you are talking about.

So, to which "most recent French study of over 1000 patients" do you refer?
