  1. I didn’t have a fever when I was laid up by Covid19. It was only after the haze of craziness had lifted that I realized what had been going on.

    1. Glynnis Thomas
      What are you insinuating? Saying I was laid up by it was my way of saying I had it.

    2. @Kevin Carter I always forget that most people on the internet are expert medical professionals. So please tell us more about what your expertise has shown you?! Shall we call you Doctor Carter or “just some guy that knows the same as the rest ov us”?

    3. @PARK Where does it speak about this Rapture that is suppose to come? I never read about it in any legitimate texts, just the heretical version that had been changed in the King James mistranslation.

    4. @Kevin Carter happens all the time in Italy also here there are some using the hydroxy Chloroquine with great results 48 hours done

  2. No it is the media giving trump a platform and repeating and showing him over and over and over. They are his free advertising

    1. @Wyatt Ewing also animals that have been having trouble repopulating are indeed benefiting from the lack of humans looking at them

    2. Downright Dutch PJP2 was the last great pope. If the next isn’t more like him the church of Rome is toast- sadly. Lapsed Catholic because of the current pope

    3. @Wyatt Ewing It’s kinda sad that the natural world gets so much better when humans aren’t outside as much or working. Makes sense though.

    1. Repent jesus is coming very very soon for rapture! World economy will crash and world police state coming aoon after rapture! Refuse the coming vaccine and rfid chip implant aka mark of beast!

  3. The Who and CDC now recommend that we all wear blindfolds
    along with our masks to protect us from seeing what this is all about.

    1. Would rather wear blindfolds instead of injecting bleach into my veins,and stupidly–…I mean STUPIDLY take a malaria drug that doesn’t work for this disease…I do commend the asshat in office for leading by stupid example that people (you) will follow–….Then die….One.Can. Only. Hope!

    2. Haha!… A+ for originality.
      Some don’t even realize their being programmed to help destroy their own country & take away their very own rights with their social engineering. The flooding of the internet with their Cuomo worshipping & their fauxi idolizing. All the support they give to big government it must be that their blind deaf and dumb. They could never fathom that msm would ever tell a lie.

    3. @Tyre Hester they need class in general. Unfortunately, school is out. And the dumbing down of the nation is in full effect.

    4. @Cleon P. you should look up what practicing doctors have had to say about the drug. They have had excellent results. I’d choose to take this early on if I had covid if it meant preventing me from becoming a ventilator patient. Have you heard the actual testimonies from the real practicing doctors? Or will you wait in line for your rushed vaccine? The vaccine that hasn’t been studied and tested properly, so who knows if it causes infertility, cancer, tumors, blindness, ect ect.. in the years to come. You can be the Guinea pig for the govt. I’d never allow myself or my family to be test dummies. But it is America so you do have the right to choose it if you want to.

    1. Orlando Tourist Traps You’re right, HCQ can be used as a vaccine. Dr Fauci even said this about SARS back in 2003-5. Idk why he’s now saying that it’s dangerous…strange.

    2. @James Tyler Oh my god dude please cite your sources don’t just put words into his mouth. HCQ has been proved to cause heart problems and people died of complications no don’t use it just yet. You pretend you’re all about the truth and will cite the bible out of context but you can’t even cite anymore. Trump himself doesn’t even cite Dr Fauci he literally just said he had a bunch of phone calls with a random Dr he doesn’t know who says it’s okay. Do you think this is smart?

    3. @James Tyler SARS and covid are not the same things. Similar, sure, but just because it helped with SARS does not mean that it will help with covid. Results have been mixed, and it can be very dangerous. So basically don’t use it.

    1. Tracey Rico

      And so here you are.

      Boycott MSM media.
      Be true to your convictions, and return to playing Scrabble.

    1. Kevin K. – Yeah get rid of this administration and elect the very system Orwell wrote the book about – great idea!!

    2. Gregor Kropotkin – it will get more dystopian if you elect people who are openly dystopian- Hillary-Biden—Bernie-Elizabeth. I mean seriously??? Biden or Trump : which one will even live long enough to see the lasting/final outcome of the entire mess??? stop with your whacked ideas about relinquishing power. It’s likely the neither one has more then 10 years left between them.

    3. yes it seems the dems using all of this to control more people. like they been controlling the blacks and spanish types to vote for them with hand outs and give them nothing in return

    4. Gregor Kropotkin I’m sure you’ll be as correct as those fools that said the same about the last guy

    1. A desolate third world country that’s a laughing stock around the world?…Nah,I’ll take the year 2000–….ANY DAY!!

  4. I don’t see a lot of comment on this aspect of the general insanity, but… if what’s going on keeps up much longer, the Navajo will soon no longer exist. All simply a part of this denial of reality indulged in by our government and about 40% of our populace. This country may not be toast yet, but it’s well on its way….

  5. “Not one looks backward, onward still he goes, Yet ne’er looks forward farther than his nose.”

    – Alexander Pope’s “Essay on Man”

  6. Upon hearing about the second stimulus checks we can kiss the economy good bye. God only knows who the next president will be. Who wants the job anyway
