Biden Strikes (Out) Again

In a campaign fundraiser alongside Barry, Joey actually tries to engage in conversation with a woman who asked a question that was sent in on a prerecorded video clip:

Why is Joe Biden asking a video recording a question? "You're an ICU nurse, aren't you? Is that what I was told?" - Joe Biden

Barry looks as though he might be having second thoughts regarding his belated endorsement of ol' Joe. Joey's done this more than once; leading many to suspect that he may be suffering from early-stage dementia. Even Democratics are expressing concern. It's not his fault; at his age, it's a fairly common malady. But it does raise questions in terms of his capacity for dealing with the office of the presidency. On the other hand, we made it through Obama....

Mask Mandates

Ran across this a bit ago:

In my 'Bare Face is Legal' FB group yesterday, someone told us that she hung one of those little blue masks off one ear, and when the store clerk asked her about it, she said 'I'm wearing a mask...that's all that is required' and the clerk had to agree with her...that just explains how crazy mask rules are.

Today I self-identify as a Black woman so I won't have to wear one.

 

Democrat-Run Cities

America is experiencing the best economy in 50 years, lifting every major minority group with record low unemployment, growth, dollar valuation, and accelerating wages. This should turn the tide in America’s cities – but the turn is slow.

Instead, we are witnessing higher homelessness in “sanctuary cities,” and policy stagnation across major impoverished, often unsafe cities – Baltimore to Buffalo, Birmingham to Brownsville.

Oddly, all but a couple of these failing cities are run by Democratics. Who'd have guessed?

 

 

Masks Are Very Important

We know this because the very people who've been lying to us all along about Covid-19 are constantly stressing the importance of wearing masks. However, masks don't seem very popular among the "black community". Maybe that's because blacks can't get or spread the virus. Or maybe there's something else at work - like they don't need no steenking masks...

It looks as though it may take a little re-enactment of history to clear things up for them.

 

Rhode Island Changes Its Name To...Rhode Island

Rhode Island Governor Gina Raimondo signed an executive order on Monday taking the ‘first steps’ to change the state’s full name: ‘The State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations.’ The order, Executive Order 20-48, will change the name to just ‘Rhode Island’ in official communications from the governor’s office – including future executive orders, citations, and stationary letterheads. It also calls on all state executive agencies to remove ‘plantations’ from their websites.

Most people were previously unaware that Rhode Island had such a lengthy name in the first place; this appears to be just more grandstanding.

 

Record-Setters

Florida, Arizona, and Texas took top honors last week, with COVID-19 cases increasing by 25%. Twenty-five U.S. states reported more new cases last week than the previous week, including 10 states that saw weekly new infections rise more than 50%, and 12 states that posted new records, according to the analysis of data from The COVID Tracking Project, a volunteer-run effort to track the outbreak.

Well, that's certainly discouraging; guess that's why Oregon has announced that they're backing off the grand re-opening plan.  Portland's going to have to blow off the Rose Festival, too.

 

Don't Even Think Of Visiting

Licence plates from U.S. states like Nevada and Colorado were spotted near Banff National Park over the past week. RCMP have issued seven tickets to U.S. residents over the past week. There are legitimate reasons for the presence of a U.S. resident or a U.S.-plated vehicle in Canada amidst the pandemic, but stopping to see sights is not one of them. Each of the tickets was issued under the Alberta Health Act at a rate of $1,200 each.

Some expensive sight-seeing there, eh?

Under current rules, Americans may come through Canada to get home or get to work in Alaska, but they must travel along a direct path. When they need to stop for food or rest stops, they must maintain distance away from the public as much as possible.

Come to think of it, though, I can't recall seeing any Canadian-plated vehicles around here lately. It must work both ways, then.

 

Dysfunction Junction

Police officers in Atlanta began calling out in mass last week after District Attorney Howard announced charges had been filed against two fellow officers involved in the Rayshard Brooks shooting. This coming as Democrats across the country call for not only defunding police, but for disbanding departments altogether — the Minneapolis city council already voted to do just that.

Atlanta got an early taste of what life will be like without those tasked with ensuring law and order. As seen in a video shared by actor James Woods, the criminal element owned the night. The video captured a gun fight breaking out in the streets. Dozens of shots ring out, as armed men boldly walk down the street openly carrying weapons, much like you might expect in some Wild West movie.

It seems like all we hear about these days is "Black Lives Matter". If they were serious, maybe they'd consider not shooting each other....

 

Who's Profiling Who?

Lincoln County, Oregon, has exempted non-white people from a new order requiring that face coverings be worn in public — to prevent racial profiling.

Yep, if you're white, you're probably racist. Blacks and others, of course, never are - so the rules about masks don't need to apply to them.

Wearing masks is supposedly all about health, but apparently only white folks transmit COVID-19.

 

Poor Planning

A new survey finds that Americans regret their lack of emergency funds to withstand the economic crisis caused by the pandemic. The Bank Rate survey found that 23 percent of Americans rate that as their biggest regret, followed closely by not having enough retirement savings. Having too much debt came in at number three.

That's just weird. It seems that a lot of them never grasped the fundamentals. I saved for years, and there will doubtless be a fair chunk of change left over when I kick the bucket. This "economic crisis" doesn't bother me in the slightest.
