While gathering to worship God, celebrate the country, and vote are deemed selfish attacks on our neighbors, gatherings to protest Christianity, the country, the police, the Republican president, and capitalism are viciously defended.

Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) (Getty Images) (CNSNews.com) – On Friday, July 3, Sens. James Lankford (R-Okla.) and Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) withdrew a proposed amendment that would have replaced Columbus Day with Juneteenth as a federal holiday.

Not totally comprehensive, but it’s a start:

Monkeys Steal Kung Flu Blood Samples

LUCKNOW, India (Reuters) – A troop of monkeys in India attacked a medical official and snatched away blood samples of patients who had tested positive for the novel coronavirus…

Authorities said they were not clear if the monkeys had spilled the blood samples… [or] if the monkeys could contract the coronavirus if they came into contact with infected blood.…

Dilbert and Covidbert

I haven’t followed Dilbert for years. Someone was complaining that Scott Adams had fallen for the whole masks, shutdowns, hibernation fearmongering. So I went to check for myself. There’s a series starting back at the April 20 Dilbert strip which has Dilbert and the rest of the cast being all weird (as usual) with the flu scare. I don’t get the impression Scott Adams is buying in as much as making fun of.

Covid-19 Fades Away From Oklahoma

Picture

Sooner Politics – 5/23/2020 – As a public health emergency, Covid-19 (a.k.a. Wuhan Virus) is no longer a state public health emergency. That’s the message from the Oklahoma House of Representatives, who voted nearly unanimously to end the state of emergency, yesterday morning.

In fact, the data from the State Health Dept shows that the worst of the health emergency was about 6 weeks ago.….

We have been lied to

Daniel Horowitz, Conservative Review

…The coronavirus fascists have succeeded in cementing their illogical, immoral, and illegal policies through the prism of false information about the timing of the virus, the specific nature and severity of the overall fatality rate, the number of actual deaths, and the utility (or perhaps harm) of lockdown policies in actually mitigating deaths – all the while obfuscating the much higher collateral deaths and damage caused by the lockdown itself.

Every day we learn new information demonstrating the lies driving lockdown. Here are some of the most important ones from over the weekend.…

  1. COVID-19 death numbers inflation
  2. longer lockdowns had worse results
  3. Outside nursing homes, the fatality rate never warranted such action
  4. Outside New York, this is barely worse than bad flu seasons
  5. Excess deaths are from the lockdowns, not the virus
  6. Social distancing was invented by a high-school kid and politicians, not scientists

…On my way out the door there was a woman… with a bandana (small single layer) tied around her face as a “mask”. … When the “masked” woman got to the door she abruptly stopped to ponder her receipt. I stooped short and said “Oh my goodness, excuse me”. …Sooooo, the woman turns around, gasps, lets out a little scream as she yells “Oh my God!” and “Back off”, then she began power walking through and out the exit door. … I don’t know what came over me, but I took off chasing her…

Why Does Trump Hate Pangolins?!?

Pandemic shines harsh light on Trump’s failure to protect pangolins

For more than five years, wildlife conservationists in the US have been clamoring for the government to provide Endangered Species Act protections to pangolins, a group of imperiled ant-eating mammals that are widely, and often illicitly, trafficked for their scales and meat. The Trump administration, however, has refused to act and that refusal has suddenly taken on grave new implications.

Earlier this year, scientists in China identified pangolins, along with bats, as one of the possible animal hosts involved in the transmission of the deadly coronavirus from wildlife to humans.…

The Trump administration also wants to cut more than $300m from programs run by the state department and USAid that promote habitat conservation and combat wildlife trafficking in Asia, Africa and elsewhere, according to a February report from the US Global Leadership Coalition. In light of threats such as Covid-19 and the climate crisis, the report asserts, the administration’s proposed cuts are “out of touch with America’s interests”.

Covid-19, scientists and advocates argue, has proven that this is not a time to reduce the US’s commitments to protecting and restoring the world’s ailing animal populations.…

Hmmm. Call me cynical, but maybe preserving the animal that carries a bunch of dangerous viruses isn’t the right course?
