HALF-FULL REPORT 03/20/20

Welcome to the Springtime HFR!  Yes, when you woke up this morning, Spring or Vernal Equinox had already happened.  From space.com:

“Astronomers can calculate the moment of the vernal equinox right down to the nearest second. This year it will occur on Thursday (March 19) at 11:49:28 p.m. EDT (0349 GMT on March 20). At that moment, the sun will appear directly overhead about 50 miles (80 kilometers) south of Gorontalo, a province of Indonesia — often referred to as the “Emerald of the Equator” — on the island of Sulawesi.”

That happens to be adjacent to Tana Toraja, the land of the Toraja people who practice one of the most exotic cultures on earth.  They live in extraordinarily dramatic and beautifully decorated thatch homes, and bury their dead in vertical cliff cemeteries, adorned  with painted wooden effigies of those entombed.

Exotic to the max, even macabre – but it sure is a better way to show respect for those passed on than to engage in the greatest global insanity the world has ever known.

On Monday (3/16), the CDC issued its latest 2019-2020 U.S. Flu Season: Preliminary Burden Estimates for seasonal influenza:

Where is panic-stricken pandemonium and stock market collapse over this?  Non-existent, that’s where – just like for the last ten years since 2010.  And note this: “The number of hospitalizations estimated so far this season is lower than end-of-season total hospitalization estimates for any season since CDC began making these estimates.”

Yes, the mind-boggling numbers you see above are lower, less, fewer than any time over the last ten years.  Look at those numbers again – then see this act of fascism yesterday (3/19) by California Governor Gavin Newsom ordering everyone in the state to stay at home.

The grand total of China virus deaths as of yesterday (3/19) among California’s 39.5 million people is: 21.

Yesterday (3/19), Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolfe ordered all “non-life-sustaining business” to close their physical locations immediately (by 8pm) or they would be forced to do so at gunpoint by state police.

The grand total of China virus deaths as of yesterday (3/19) among Pennsylvania’s 13 million people is:  1.  Yes, one. (Note: CA/PA figures current as of 5pm EDT today 3/20).

What is responsible for this fascist insanity – for the most completely unhinged “madness of crowds” ever to infect Americans and the rest of the world?

More than anything else, it is the willful maliciousness of the America-hating, freedom-hating, Trump-hating Lying Swine Fake News Enemedia in cahoots with the Chinese Communist Party and the Democrat Party engaged in a joint effort to destroy the US economy and impoverish millions of Americans in order to defeat Trump in November.

Watch POTUS shut down one of these media scumtards at the White House China virus briefing early this afternoon (3/20):

And enjoy this collection of presidential bon mots in the briefing yesterday (3/19), as he labels the Enemedia “not just Fake News but Corrupt News,” and on the side of China, not America, in the process.

Let’s cross our fingers, however, that POTUS disregards his opinion of the WSJ enough to pay attention to its editorial today (3/20): Rethinking the Coronavirus Shutdown.

Here’s an alternative to these state-wide indiscriminate shutdowns suggested by Skye: Age-selective isolation.

I’ll be sending this to the White House, please consider sending it to your Congressman and Senator.  It is based on the fact that those under 65 in normal health rarely die of the China virus if they get it.  Those under real threat are 65 and older.

“We would suggest a selective rigorous isolation for the next 4 months or so of those over about 65 (many of whom are retired) rather than of everybody.  Indeed, this is what the Costco stores in Las Vegas are currently doing; they are opening an hour early and only allowing in those who are over 60 for that first hour and are sanitizing the hell out of their stores overnight. 

 

This approach would have a far smaller economic impact and would protect those who most need protection.  If this age-based isolation approach were followed, only people who are over 60 would need missing income support.  Private businesses could easily deliver food and other supplies to the doors of isolated elders.  This age selective isolation approach would also result in much faster termination of the pandemic since herd immunity would build up much more rapidly.”

There is, though, one significant benefit to this hysteria sucking the oxygen out of everything.  Whatever happened to those two old geezers who used to be in the news all the time.  One was coming down with Alzheimer’s, the other some crackpot Bolshie – what were their names again?  I forget.

Oh, yeah – the Bolshie wants to shut the whole country down, have the government take over all businesses, and open the borders to everyone in the world, and who cares if they have China virus or not.

And the senile one wants to kill the oil and gas industry and take millions of cars off the road. Of course, he wants open borders too.

On Wednesday (3/18), the senile one gave a speech to supporters after winning the Illinois and Florida primaries the day before.  He concluded his remarks by staring blankly into space for several seconds until his wife Jill came to his rescue.  He turned to her surprised and confused, and had to be prompted to follow her.

This is not a well man.  How his wife can allow this is elder abuse.  Watch the vid and the commentary – be sure to watch until the end for a surprise cameo appearance.

Something else to watch.  Remember the hard hat union worker in Detroit who Dementia Joe told was “full of ****”?  Well, his name is Jerry Wayne, and as a proud NRA member, he made this video.  Wow.  How many of you think Jerry should be HFR Hero of the Week?  This is fabulous.

Let’s get back to that WSJ editorial and Skousen commentary.  I know a lot of you are upset with all the boondoggle spending on the China virus panic POTUS is engaged in.  I am as well.  But remember, the Enemedia created this panic and is doing everything it can to blame Trump for it.

He has no choice but to go overboard to counteract the entire purpose of the panic – to ruin his chances of reelection.  And his strategy is working.  You know it is when, on Tuesday (3/17), New York’s Dem Gov Andrew Cuomo Praises Trump’s Coronavirus Response: “His Team Is On It”.

When yesterday (3/19), California Dem Gov Gavin Newsom Praises Trump, Says, “He’s On It.”

When CNN’s Trump-hating Dana Bash tells her audience that President Trump is now “the kind of leader people need.”

When on Wednesday (3/18) – you’re not going to believe this – arguably the most obnoxiously leftard congresscritter in the House, lhan Omar Praises Trump’s Coronavirus Response as “Incredible.”

He has bet his electoral farm on his strategy working fast enough to remove the hamstrings before they ruin the economy like the WSJ is warning.  As he’s saying this afternoon (3/20):

That’s April 3 or 4 depending how he counts.  Time enough to undo the damage, get everyone back to work, the economy and stock markets back on their feet well before November.  Cross your fingers.  And double cross them that POTUS and Fauci’s twisting the FDA’s arm to breaking in making the anti-malarial drug chloroquine available for curing China virus works.

And the same for Arizona Congressman Mark Green, MD, and Army Flight Surgeon, who reports the combination of Chloroquine with  Azithromycin Clears the China Virus in 3 days in 100% of Patients.

Speed is of the essence, because here it comes, right on schedule, Dems using the panic to commit Voter Fraud on Steroids.

Hillary Clinton Calls to Make Voting by Mail the Norm.

Lawmakers Asked to Authorize All-Mail Elections.

Democrats Using Pretext of Coronavirus Outbreak to Push Unsecure “Vote by Mail” Free For All, No Voter ID For 2020 Elections.

Never let a crisis – especially a manufactured-by-the-media one – go to waste, right?

We can end this fast with the basic precautions of proper hygiene, social distancing, and elder isolation.  Heat and humidity are coming to kill the virus off.  Other cultures will continue to get hit harder, and we can’t use them as yardsticks.  Italy for example.  Here’s what happened.

The Chicoms hid their Wuhan epidemic from the world from late November to late January, in major part because they didn’t want to disrupt the Chinese Lunar New Year celebration – the biggest holiday of the year in China – from January 24 to February 8.

300,000 Chinese live in Milan alone – and tens of thousands of them traveled back to China to see their relatives during this time then returned bringing China virus with them.  That initiated the C-virus death storm in Italy which as of today (3/20) has taken over 4,000 lives.

President Trump was the only world leader to block all flights from China to the US on January 31^st, and was hysterically condemned by Dems and other leaders as xenophobic.  It’s what saved the US from a far worse contagion. Italy of course did not block such flights, no country in Europe did.  The Milan Chinese continued to flood back in.

Italy has the oldest population in Europe.  The average age of those over 4,000 C-virus deaths is just under 80 years.  Plus most of them had life-threatening pre-existing conditions.

And Iran for example.  Iran has gone Full Retard Suicidal As Radical Imams Encourage Mobs to Ignore Social Distancing at Shia Shrines.  Iranians are going to die like flies.

Oh, FYI.   POTUS took time away from the Chicom Virus Panic to Take Out the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Commander in Iraq, General Siamand Mashhadani.  How cool is that?

************

Time to pray, folks.  That POTUS is right, that what he’s doing will “stop the spread” in two weeks, that Spring temps will start to kill the virus off, that he’ll be able to quickly remove the economy-killing restrictions in time, that we’ll be over this nightmare and back on Recovery Road by the end of April.

Bet on Trump.  It’s the only bet we have.  After all – it’s Springtime in America!
