15,000 new positives in a day is ”Fake News” 9% Positives in a day is ”Real News” Which hurts Republican’s more? MSM will do anything and tell any lie to discredit Trump or a Republican Governor (Florida). No quarter .308/.223 | |||

I like the headlines that say the number of cases/hospitalizations/deaths continue to rise as if there was a chance those numbers were going to fall. | |||

Kemp is one of the only Governors that has proven to value personal liberties at least as much as self preservation. Terrified herd animals are dangerous. | |||

The executive order reads in part: “I ban your ban and ban you from banning!" "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Not the Gov, but the Lt. Gov in AL. “An overstep”: Lieutenant governor bemoans governor’s statewide mask order
If these yahoos could stop with the arm-wrestling after the fact and settle this in advance, one way or the other, that might help as well. Yeah, never, I know. You only have integrity once. - imprezaguy02 | |||

^^^^^ Kinda the same in Texas. Lt. Governor Dan Patrick wasn't too pleased with all the mask "orders" set in place and the calls from the idiot savants Turner and Hooch...errm...I mean Hidalgo, to shut down the state again. But I don't think he came out publicly against Governor Abbott...I believe he blasted the CDC and/or the WHO (not the band). "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D.

Ohio Governor Dewine is scaring us again. Ohio is "sliding". Kroger and Walmart are going to require face masks now. I'm at a loss. Part of me thinks here we go again and part of me says that maybe the people will stand up this time. It is still unclear whether kids will be going to school or not. Sorry working parents, come up with a plan that doesn't involve your kids being grouped together with other kids. _____________________ Be careful what you tolerate.

It's interesting that he requests everyone to wear a mask but won't mandate it. Don't get me wrong, it's all about personal freedom vs authoritarianism and I applaud him for that. It's just that in today's culture you can't find a politician like that anymore! Hedley Lamarr: Wait, wait, wait. I'm unarmed. Bart: Alright, we'll settle this like men, with our fists. Hedley Lamarr: Sorry, I just remembered . . . I am armed. | |||

The Governor of Georgia gets it and deserves reelection. Many of these politicians are treating this as just another political issue that should be navigated in such a way as to alienate the fewest voters. Personal liberties are fine, but the terrified herd must be pacified that 'something' is being done. | |||

Yep. If you want to wear a mask, wear it. But don't shove it in our faces! No force! Laura Ingraham did her "Angle" last night on the effectiveness of mask wearing. Laura Ingraham: What they're not telling you: "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit.

TX had deadliest day of the virus so far, 110 deaths yesterday. Dallas County Coroner has fired up their fridge truck for dead bodies but not all are Covid related. Good news is hospitalizations are down today. We'll know something by Monday if Abbot is going to shut a bunch of shit down again. What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||

She brings out excellent points that need to be told.....especially that under lab conditions with actual sick folks the masks did not show any benefit.. It's criminal that the lame media and politicians are getting away with their hysteria and fear mongering. I know that many (some right here ) will argue other studies but for every study found to support masks, it's easy to find one that disputes that finding. . So we are left with pretty much a coin flip as to who is right. With no clear cut, decisive info, it needs to be up to each individual and not some tyrant governor mayor, etc to wear a mask or not. We also can't forget the already exposed clear fraud and inflation of data by the news and politicians so we can not believe a thing they tell us.This message has been edited.

https://www.wbaltv.com/article...-insurance/33323314# Maryland has uncovered a massive criminal enterprise involving over 47,500 fraudulent unemployment insurance claims totaling more than $501 million, Gov. Larry Hogan announced Wednesday. Hogan called it a "massive and sophisticated criminal enterprise" by an organized ring that targeted used stolen personal information from national data breaches to file fraudulent unemployment insurance claims. According to the governor, the scheme was detected over the July Fourth weekend when the Maryland Department of Labor noticed a spike in out-of-state Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) claims. The agency immediately froze all out-of-state accounts and ultimately blocked payment to more than 47,500 bogus claims totaling $501 million. "The PUA Program, in particular, allows individuals to self-certify that they are unemployed due to the coronavirus, eliminating the regular check-and-balance that exists under the regular state UA program, increasing the potential for fraud,” Maryland Labor Secretary Tiffany Robinson said. State officials exposed the scheme and notified federal authorities. The governor said the Maryland investigation helped federal authorities uncover similar cases in 12 other states. "Processing the sudden and unprecedented increase in unemployment claims while following complex federal regulations and guarding against fraud is certainly not an issue unique to the state of Maryland," Hogan said. The governor said it could be an international fraud ring, could be domestic organized crime, but it's an ongoing federal investigation, so he doesn't even know where the attack originated. "This criminal enterprise seeking to take advantage of a global pandemic to steal hundreds of millions, perhaps billions of dollars from taxpayers, is despicable, and we will continue to work with both the U.S. attorney and the U.S. Department of Labor Office of Inspector General on this ongoing investigation both here in Maryland and other states across the country to do whatever it takes to ensure that the perpetrators are apprehended and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law," Hogan said. "Since the pandemic began, we have seen a dramatic increase in the amount of unemployment insurance fraud claims across the nation," said Special Agent Derek Pickle, with the Office of the Inspector General at the U.S. Department of Labor. | |||

The U.S. is at 3.53M cases. Again...wake me up when it hits 60.0+M cases. Hell...wake me when it even hits 10.0M cases. Cause for concern? Sure...for some. But nonetheless, a FARCE from the get-go.

Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil...

more fraud https://www.foxnews.com/us/cal...man-charged-ppp-loan A Los Angeles man allegedly scammed a federal program aimed at helping small businesses survive the coronavirus pandemic for millions of dollars – much of which he blew through risky investments and at a Las Vegas casino, prosecutors said Thursday Andrew Marnell, 40, allegedly fraudulently obtained around $8.5 million in loans from the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) on behalf of multiple companies, the Justice Department (DOJ) said in a news release. Investigators accuse him of making false and misleading statements on the applications as well as submitting fake and altered tax and payroll documents to support the filings. When he got the money, the DOJ said he transferred it to his brokerage account and started playing the stock market. He also allegedly spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in Vegas. The PPP is part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), part of the federal COVID-19 stimulus aimed at helping Americans suffering financial hardship due to the pandemic. A 29-year-old Texas man was arrested on Tuesday after allegedly falsely filing PPP applications on behalf of a pair of businesses that had no employees. A day earlier, a 40-year-old man in Washington, D.C., was busted after allegedly submitting a gross income of more than $175,000 on his PPP application – and only $1 on his tax return to receive the maximum $1,200 federal coronavirus stimulus payment. And last week, a Florida man was allegedly caught scamming both Medicare and the PPP for more than $5 million after filing false claims for orthopedic braces that patients neither wanted nor received. Back in June, the FBI arrested a Detroit man who allegedly bought two Cadillacs, a Dodge Charger and a Hummer with fraudulently obtained PPP money. | |||

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Sadly,this was to be expected. Criminals are a certain percentage of the population. Any time you try to get money to people quickly this sort of thing happens. On the other hand there are plenty of people whose applications were denied or misplaced. These frauds give the new US attorneys something to do. | |||
