  1. Negligent homicide charges for any Governor that delayed stay at home orders for their state. Hold them responsible for every death in that state.

    1. People can choose to stay home without being told. Unless you feel that yourself and everyone else is just powerless in your decisions. I feel sorry for you in that case.

    1. VladI Except he would never say something like that. He takes all credibility and no responsibility.

  2. Can we have a “No confidence” vote and remove all these bozos from office starting with Trump?!

    1. @Matt The Taffy yeah, you’re saying the quiet part out loud. Maybe not necessarily .50, but go big or go home works in this case.

  3. Finally someone who is speaking the Truth, if we had better leadership things maybe a whole lot different

    1. Love conquers all
      Even when nobody else is showing it

      Just Love, it will change the world….

      Unlike the hate and VITRIOL saturation MSNBS constantly serves up with a side of identity politics…..

      JUST STOP THE HATE

    1. Great post.
      Make sure when he does that, he is given an N95 mask that has been used for, the past 6 shifts. Just like the entire staff.

    1. @due whit “There will be no election this year”
      That is constitutionally impossible as there are fixed times until when the Senate and Representatives have to be replenished and can be sworn into office. You might get away with not electing a president and dragging on the lead-dead donkey you burdened yourself with for another year or 18 months, but youi cannot run without a congress, without governors or mayors or any of the hundreds of other things the election day is due to determine. And if they tried even the stuffed with originalist morons SCotUS has not much chance but to rip them a new one, which has happened in similar situations before with Kavanaugh and Gorsuch supporting a constitutionally crystal clear situation against the wishes of the right wingers that counted on them. Even with all their flaws, they are still judges and their job is to deal with “what does the constitution say about this”. Which often is not what some partisan hacks would love it to say.

    2. @Ricky Spanish not female genitals. but a human brain and a humanist education that tells you “doctors might KNOW what they are talking about, maybe i SHOULD stay at home and limit social contacts to be safe”. It’s the Conservatives and Libertarians that will drive themselves to extinction over “nobody tells me how to live my life!” stances. You cannot stand your ground against a virus with an M16.

    3. @The Greatest Generation ”
      Looks like it’s doing a good job on y’all up there”
      Sure… the edges of the country with the biggest airports and largest ports for passenger transport have got it FIRST. Does not make Flyover country and the brainless biblebelt immune to getting it, just means they got it a tad later. And with the flower of American Youth celebrating Springbreak cheek to buttcheek for weeks, you WILL get it back into all 50 states and the assorted territories. Don’t kid yourself. Do you really expect that Wyoming is prepared the way a NY State is able to prepare if they get a 2% infection rate (the almost 100,000 cases are only the severely affected ones and close contact cases that HAD to be tested to be sure, there is an enormous “nah i feel fine” dark number behind this, 2% is a rough estimate at 27 million in the state that is 350,000 and it seems low now)? (meaning about 0.35-0.4% hospitalized cases and of those about 5% will die, 0.02% of the population. Wyoming has got what? 500,000? How many ICU-beds are there for 2000 serious cases? How happy will they be about a deathtoll of 100 persons?

      What if the lack of preparedness means it’s not 2% but 20% infected? Does Wyoming have 20,000 intensive care beds? Or medicine and medical personnel to care for 20,000 severely ill persons? How happy will republicans be if there are at least 1000 dead? Or if there are e.g. only capacities to care for 12,000 patients, if it’s 9,000?

      Now Wyoming is just an example… Texas also did wait far too long. And it has what? 30 million citizens? 2% is already twice the complete population of Wyoming. Meaning 40,000 ICU beds are needed. 20% would be 6 million with almost half a million intensive care beds requires or hundreds of thousands will die! New York only had what? 10,000 “ventilators”? At a comparable population size? Say Texas has somewhat better prepared or got more govt support from 45, so they manage 25,000 ventilator units. At 400,000 needed that is 375,000 that PROBABLY won’t make it. And even with all patients cared for at the ideal rate and with magically appearing supplies and personnel, 400,000 would mean at LEAST 4,000 dead, with not ideal care five times as much is possible. 20,000 dying on your watch? Who’s supposed to rise? Zombie hordes from the ranks of the freshly deceased?

      You butt-brains cannot think from midday to noon. If it’s not right in front of your nose it doesn’t exist, yeah?

  4. 😔Not saying I’m overeating much, but I’m starting to get a tan off of the fridge light.🤭

  5. Trump said the FDA approved a drug to treat covid, his own medical specialist and the FDA had to come out and say he was wrong. Trump is flat out lying and cult members pretend he cares about anyone other than himself.

    1. @Norm Zemke
      U might be right, either way more people are dying because of his extreme failure.

    2. @Dr. Beau Hightower They approved it for experimental use. Remember the original study of the drug combo was of poor quality, being very small, non-random and non-blind. New studies from both France and China are appearing which contradict its findings. It happens frequently that initial studies, especially small ones, turn out to be faulty, so please don’t get your hopes up.

      https://theconversation.com/a-small-trial-finds-that-hydroxychloroquine-is-not-effective-for-treating-coronavirus-135484

      A study just published in a French medical journal provides new evidence that hydroxychloroquine does not appear to help the immune system clear the coronavirus from the body. The study comes on the heels of two others – one in France and one in China – that reported some benefits in the combination of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin for COVID-19 patients who didn’t have severe symptoms of the virus.

      There are already other clinical studies that showed it is not effective against COVID-19 as well as several other viruses. And, more importantly, it can have dangerous side effects, as well as giving people false hope. The latter has led to widespread shortages of hydroxychloroquine for patients who need it to treat malaria, lupus and rheumatoid arthritis, the indications for which it was originally approved.

      A second French group, led by Jean-Michel Molina, has now tested the hydroxychloroquine-azithromycin combination treatment in 11 patients at the Hôpital Saint-Louis in Paris, France, and their results were strikingly different.

      Like the Marseille study, the Molina trial was also a small pilot study. Molina and colleagues used the same dosing regimen as Gautret. In contrast, however, to the Gautret study, eight of the 11 patients had underlying health conditions, and 10 of 11 had fevers and were quite ill at the time the dosing began.

      These Paris researchers found that after five to six days of treatment with hydroxychloroquine (600 mg per day for 10 days) and azithromycin (500 mg on day 1 and 250 mg on days 2 to 5), eight of the 10 patients still tested positive for COVID-19. Of these 10 patients, one patient died, two were transferred to the ICU and another had to be removed from the treatment due to serious complications.

    3. Dr. Beau Hightower It is not fish tank cleaner. It has an ingredient similar to one in fish tank cleaner.Choloquine is the name of the med. Used to treat malaria.

  6. This seems to be becoming a huge Darwinian moment where those too inured in their political dogma are uniformly and relentlessly slain by their own ignorance. One death is to many yet most of these lunatics seem determined to take everyone else down with them.

    1. Mark, I was thinking the same thing, but New York and California are already so hard-hit, all those Trumpist states will never catch up — quantitatively, that is.

  7. The Republicans will still be blaming everyone but themselves when the death toll passes into the millions.

    1. @Garrett Kniffen I guess you havent seen all the dem videos of them promoting going out into crowded places saying its safe eh right up to a few weeks ago just before cases in those very areas got higher.

    2. @Adversary I’m not manichean because I only watch “propaganda news” ?.
      So… you’re manichean ? For you, everything is black or white, no nuance whatsoever ? Okay, that’s your right.
      But we already knew that you guys can’t understand the concept of complexity.

    3. Coronavirus don’t care about politics, virus 🦠 cares about Infecting and killing people. not about Republicans and Democrats

    4. @Big Picture Thinking people have every right to criticise the poor leadership of the Trump administration. Their lives depend on it.

  8. Y’all, we’re not Louisiana; we’re not New York; and we’re not California; we’re also not too bright. But suffering will make us brighter.

    1. @Pumla Nonti Suffering will, as usual, bring insight. Hopefully, too, it will bring constructive transformation, as well. Take care and good luck.

    2. @joern122 But, joern, it IS the fate of most of us, and mankind in general. We don’t easily learn from other’s mistakes, but from our own. Take care.

  9. When politics and voters means more than human life, how can Americans not understand that America is no longer seen as a leading power. Especially by it’s allies.

    1. @Thats Me America has been on the path to disunity for decades now. Trump didn’t cause it. He is a manifestation of the growing polarization. Nothing will unify a country as diverse and fractured as America. We are heading down the same path as the former Yugoslavia.

    2. This CHINESE WUHAN CORONA-VIRUS spotlighted the evil that is China. No amount of Feng sui or Chinese propaganda will return our dead loved ones.

  10. TRUMP FAILED TO PROTECT THE COUNTRY, WE HAD MONTHS TO PREPARE, AND HE DID NOTHING. LOOK AT SOUTH KOREA, THEY GOT THEIR FIRST CASE THE SAME DAY WE DID, THEY HAD COMPETENT LEADERSHIP, AND THEY HAVE NO EPIDEMIC. WILL THE TRUMP SUPPORTERS EVER SEE, REALITY. TRUMP’S LACK OF CONCERN, CAUSED THIS EPIDEMIC.

    1. Esoteric Jahanism South Korea’s executive branch isn’t nearly as strong as America’s. The federal government has enormous oversight, power, and ability to mobilize a response to this crisis using resources, manpower, and laws.

      It is simply a failure to plan and a failure to act. There are no more excuses.

    2. No. They are cult members. They blindly believe in their cult leader. Truly horrifying. Never thought I’d see anything like this in this country in my lifetime.

    3. @Peri Turner not true. That is a stupid fascist right talking point. Please provide evidence of this. Stop watching right wing fascism. It makes you guys super stupid.

    1. Coronaoutbreak in China
      Europe: Nah, this doesnt affect us

      Coronaoutbreak in Europe
      Europe: Suprised Pikachu face
      US: Nah, this doesnt affect us

      Coronaoutbreak in NY
      Other Counties: Nah, this doesnt affect us. It will not spread further

      To be continue…

    2. Teardown Dan
      It didn’t used to be that way. When the Republicans successfully crushed unions, they took away the Democrats traditional source of campaign funding; which ensured the Democrats stayed pro-working class. The Democrats had to go to corporate sources and PACs for campaign financing and thus came under the thumbs of the wealthy benefactors. At least until Bernie came along and changed the game.
      Bernie 2020! 🔥🇺🇸

    3. Yup these American politicians are killing their constituents. But evil China created this CHINESE WUHAN CORONA-VIRUS PANDEMIC and is killing thousands of people all over the world. Evil China is the modern world’s new NAZI!

    4. Well as they are fond to say: “elections do have consequences!” If you elect badly you’ll notice it once good governance is a question of survival.

  11. 🙋🏼 I’m a nurse, and I’m so proud of those who have been brave enough to publicly tell the truth! This isn’t about us, this is about being able to provide safe and effective care for our pts. We’re being asked to do something that we’d have been fired for doing, 3 months ago; reusing single use PPE. It’s unreal.

    Now, I’m lucky to have a reusable mask that can be sanitized between pts, but I can’t say the same for my co-workers; they’re having to use one mask for for 3-4 days, while working with several pts. My mom has been making masks for me to bring to work for my co-workers, and they’re pretty good, but not good enough, and most certainly not what we need and deserve.

    ⚠️ Sorry, but I’m getting really tired of hearing Trump suggest that we’re “wasting” our equipment, or that someone must be stealing it. WE’RE FREAKIN’ USING IT. THAT’S WHERE IT’S GOING! You’d think a “stable genius, with a great and unmatched wisdom” would understand that.🤷🏼‍♀️

    I’d like to see Trump put on some subpar PPE, and go into a covid-19 positive pts room. You better believe he’d be singing a different tune if it was HIM being forced to take the risks we’re taking everyday. Nope. He’d move Heaven and Earth to have all the masks in the world, if it was him who needed protecting.
    I’d much prefer to be positive, but right now I think it’s more important to be straight forward and real… Unfortunately, the light he claims to have seen at the end of the tunnel, is more likely to be a train coming straight at us, than an end to this nightmare. I hope I’m wrong, but I’m afraid, at this point, the worst is yet to come.

    *Trump screwed the pooch on this one, BIGLY, and we all know it!* Among other things, he should have taken the tests offered by the WHO in Janu-freakin’-ary. He should have enacted the DPA to make vents and PPE, 2 freakin’ months ago. And he should call for a NATIONWIDE lockdown, right freakin’ now!

    This thing is no joke, y’all! PLEASE stay safe, stay healthy, and STAY HOME 🙏 You do not want this, believe me.

    We’re truly all in this together, and although it might take a while, don’t forget, *THIS TOO SHALL PASS!*
    When you find yourself feeling down or defeated, take a moment to contact someone you know and love, and say something (anything) that will lift their spirits; I promise you’ll find yours lifted, as well. 👍More than ever, it’s our job to keep each other going.
    ✌️💜😷 Take care, everyone!😷💜✌️

    1. Why don’t you tell the American public the TRUTH. The hospitals are not “warzones” like the media is portraying.

    2. Good luck for getting through this horrendous time. I am a retired nurse, & I can’t even imagine how difficult it must be for you at the moment. This low life Narcissist will bring the country to it’s knees if he is not removed from office, as of now. At least a few thousand lives may be saved.

    3. I’m truly moved by your words. All health care workers deserve more! Please remember that you are a hero. It may not be enough to make you feel better, but when this is over I hope you get great things in your life! Keep getting your word out! It’s so important now more than ever before!

    4. @Lesley Watson Why are you hospital workers lying to the public? The hospitals are not anything near what the MSM is showing on television.

    5. Cant stay home like you I have been deemed essential. Wish I could ride this out at home like all the lucky people

    1. @BearRamElk there’s the problem, you know alot about garbage and nothing about common sense…

  12. I’m not American, but it sure seems to me that your Republicans are not the sharpest tools in the shed😳

    1. @Garry Miller pure TDS, you do nothing but trash trump with lies you heard on cnn or msnbc and have no intellectual value whatsoever .

    2. @Keith Mcmorrow New York city has a population density of 27 thousand people per square mile. Stop making this political. this virus could care less who is a Democrat and who is a republican. this virus likes population ensity. But, it will be coming for the less densely populated Republican states.

    1. I live in a blue state. No shelter-in-place yet. We have an advisory. Please stay home, unless you want to hang out with everyone at any of the 90% of the businesses in the state.

  13. When you cannot run just 3 casino’s you have no business trying to run the United States like your casino’s .
