A Centers for Disease Control report released in September shows that masks and face coverings are not effective in preventing the spread of COVID-19, even for those people who consistently wear them. A study conducted in the United States in July found that when they compared 154 “case-patients,” who tested positive for COVID-19, to a control group of 160 participants from the same health care facility who were symptomatic but tested negative, over 70 percent of the case-patients were contaminated with the virus and fell ill despite “always” wearing a mask. “In the 14 days before illness onset, 71% of...

"Actually, it appears that masks are today more like what the Vichy French were to the advancing German forces." This is in response to Governor Jay Inslee pontificating, "What aircraft carriers were in World War II, masks are today."

The Great Barrington Declaration offers a way forward, but do most Americans have the courage to risk their sense of security to maintain enduring liberty?In an era in which every dubious decision is “due to COVID-19,” we hear policymakers repeating the same mantra: “If just one life is saved,” it’s worth relinquishing our freedoms, our sanity, and possibly our future. More often than not, this ethical dilemma is presented without mentioning the obvious trade-offs or long-term consequences.Imagine you’re an administrative dictator. If you could “save just one life” — or even thousands — by crippling the youth, vaporizing a million...

Six months ago Dr. Robert Redfield told the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee that healthy people should not wear face masks.

A recent Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) study that has been largely ignored by the fake news media indicates that wearing face masks may not do all that much to prevent individuals from contracting COVID-19. The study shows that 70.6 percent of symptomatic COVID-19 sufferers reported that they “always” wore their face diaper, but were infected anyway. An additional 14.4 percent of COVID+ respondents stated that they wore the face diaper “often” but it did not protect them from catching the China plague....Investigative journalist Jordan Schachtel notes that these findings prove CDC director Robert Redfield to be a...

With COVID-related deaths topping 215,000 in America, the risk-reward calculus must be made before you go anywhere: Is it worth it, if you might catch coronavirus? Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, says not all places are equal and some have way more risk.

I had the bright idea of going to the library on Sunday to get a few books. BAD IDEA. I walk in and there is this woman sitting at a plastic fold out table. Granted I have the damn mask on but it is not over my nose. I am walking past the table and this bit*& says, PUT YOUR MASK OVER YOUR NOSE SIR! SIR OVER THE NOSE! I gave her the dirtiest look and walk away. This is the second time this has happened to me. At a local taco place another witch motioned with her hand for...

All summer long, Joe Biden surrogates in Pennsylvania lived in fear of a rerun of 2016’s Nightmare on Election Night, when the Democratic candidate for president, after leading in the polls for weeks, lost the state to Donald Trump by less than one percentage point, clearing his path to the White House. Their biggest concern was tactical: By avoiding in-person campaigning during the pandemic, Biden insiders worried that the former VP was ceding a big advantage to Trump. The tipping point, sources within the campaign say, was a September 26 ABC News/Washington Post poll showing much softer support among the...

Dr. Anthony Fauci said in an interview with CBS News that referring to a cure for COVID-19 may cause "confusion," and he also weighed in on the health status of President Trump, who contracted the virus but is eager to return to in-person events as the presidential campaign reaches its closing weeks. Fauci also identified the White House ceremony for Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett as a "super spreader" event.

St. Louis County Executive Sam Page has some of the strictest lockdown measures in nation. The Democrat has extended unnecessary lockdowns on children and has ruined youth sports. His outlandish rules have caused hundreds of county businesses to close down for good. Poor and middle class county residents are hurt the most and their children are suffering. In August Sam Page toughened his orders requiring face masks, in an effort to keep the coronavirus from spreading. Under Page’s crackdown businesses are not able to serve people who aren’t wearing masks, and children over age 5 will have to wear them...

Welcome to this weekend unplugged I come to the table with a busy day ahead of me that will limit the posting with a large gap...... God has a "Top Ten" list and racism isn't on it but lust is and the pandemic of lust looms large although Dr. Fauci isn't dealing with this problem and that's not his area of endeavor. God Bless the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. he had a batting average on racism but struck out every time when it came to his lust. I need to stop giving God the orders and start...

There has been no spike in cases of the Chinese coronavirus in Florida over the last two weeks, despite Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) lifting key coronavirus restrictions and nixing the enforcement of local mask mandates across the Sunshine State last month. On September 25, Gov. DeSantis took a major step, lifting key coronavirus restrictions at the state level. The order allowed businesses, such as restaurants, to operate at full capacity at the state level and required local governments to “justify” any restrictions on capacity moving forward. Additionally, DeSantis suspended all penalties related to local mask mandates, as he never issued...

A male rider threw hot coffee at a female MTA bus driver and pushed her to the ground after she asked him to wear a mask amid the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, according to police. The alleged assault against the bus operator took place at 8:19 a.m. Thursday onboard an S46 bus at Castleton Avenue and Jewett Avenue in Port Richmond, officials said. The driver asked the suspect to put his mask on when he stepped onto the bus. The rider allegedly ignored her request and headed toward the back of the bus, according to an NYPD spokeswoman. The driver approached...

Another terrifying development during the pandemic is the use of executive orders and executive authority to initiate restrictions without… Over the past couple of weeks a trend has become apparent in the state of Idaho, specifically in Moscow, Idaho in Latah County. The city council of Moscow has issued a mandatory mask order, and they are using police to enforce it. Bizarrely, the city had ZERO deaths from Covid at the time the mask order was instituted, meaning their action was in response to…nothing. Idaho has had a total of 500 deaths from Covid since the beginning of the outbreak....

A Pennsylvania waitress said a customer left her a note about face masks on his receipt in lieu of a tip after she reminded the man that he needed to cover up when he's not seated. A photo of the receipt with the word "mask" written on the tip line was shared on the Facebook page of John Henry's Pub of Ardmore, where the waitress works. "When your staff politely asks a customer to wear a mask until seated, this is how they are disrespected. Totally unacceptable. 'YOU' should be ashamed of yourself!!" a caption on the post reads.

Watch the vape go right through the mask in the link below. The vape is much larger than the nano size Covid 19. Nevertheless, you can visibly see the masks are useless. https://twitter.com/plantlady293/status/1313457515322015744  

Lockdowns are typically portrayed as prudent precautions against Covid-19, but they are surely the most risky experiment ever conducted on the public. From the start, researchers have warned that lockdowns could prove far deadlier than the coronavirus. People who lose their jobs or businesses are more prone to fatal drug overdoses and suicide, and evidence already exists that many more will die from cancer, heart disease, pneumonia, and tuberculosis and other diseases because the lockdown prevented their ailments from being diagnosed early and treated properly. Yet politicians and public-health officials conducting this unprecedented experiment have paid little attention to these...

Tuesday, Fox News Channel’s Tucker Carlson sounded off on the media’s consternation with President Donald Trump’s recovery and subsequent actions following his COVID-19 diagnosis. Carlson questioned the standard applied to Trump in the wake of his illness and noted how some Democrats have not lived up to their own professed standard, especially regarding masks. Transcript as follows: CARLSON: Donald Trump got the coronavirus last week. On Saturday, some of his aides suggested in the background that he could die from it. The media happily seconded that diagnosis.
