  1. Governor Pritzker, also make sure a employee at a nursing home only works at one nursing home (not several) to curtail the spreading of COVID-19. 👍😊😷

  2. As a spouse of a nursing home employee in Illinois I’m glad that priority has been put on them

    1. @Susan Blood You’re more devious then I!! I got a flu vaccine back around 1978 and was sick for almost 2 weeks and will never get another flu shot…besides, they call it a vaccine but its not a vaccine. They are misusing the word. And I tell everyone, NO Test, No Vaccine, No Tagging.
      I also shake hands, but wash my hands.
      Your hands have feelings that tell send messages to your bring and if you shake an infected person’s hand it will wake up your immune system to the infection and help prepare you. But wash your hands asap.
      Now, I’m a 68 year old Black Man and them Chinese viruses is Raaaaaacist!
      But back around 1960 the One a day vitamin advertisements would show a person cooking liver, but tell you that there was more iron in a one a day, then in one pound of calves liver. BS, I’m not a vitamin taker, But everyone should be upping the iron in their system and get it naturally, like calves liver.
      So, I’m saying Calves liver helps your immune system and will help people overcome these viruses and possibly cure AIDS.
      On that note, after 38 years Fauci still hasn’t came up with an AIDS vaccine, and only the Left will wait in there homes until Fauci discovers the Winnie The Pooh Flu vaccine.
      Interestingly enough, They want Trump off the air, but want Fauci granting interviews instead of running the Lab.
      and
      Ironically, Trump has done more for AIDS victims than Fauci.
      After Rock Hudson Died, Liz Taylor was distraught over losing her friend, so this led to her friends Michael Jackson and Donald Trump starting an AIDS Awareness campaign and a push for an AIDS cure with Taylor. for about 4 or 5 years they talked to doctors and patients and determined that AIDS passed through Blood Transfusions which led to Ryan White becoming the face of AIDS.
      See, I can be devious too!!

    2. @Earl Scott yeah you think, guess you just missed the recent report about Google buying our medical records and putting them on their private cloud. It’s here on YT , if you look. Then look how India is doing our medical billing after we sent those jobs there.

    1. TheJeeperx the whole violence thing in Chicago is the side effect of the wealth and income inequality of the cook county area, and it’s not like Congress is doing anything to pass any laws to regulate guns at all because that’d be “infringement of second amendment rights”

    2. @Jimmy if guns were the problem violence like that would be all over the country, if its income inequality in that area then why not a program to help them move to an area where they could be prosperous?

    1. @Peter Nadreau yes pepperidge farm remembers when America was White America not multicultural juice slaved toilet America

    1. @Granny Lisa I hope you did not take that the vaccine is the only option. The other option of testing, tracking, and quarantining infected carriers is exactly what we have now, but that is still not practiced in America. Other deadly viruses have been fought without vaccines, but they were effectively handled with the latter option that have been practiced in China, South Korea, Russia, and Cuba for example, to save the lives of the population, but not in America. I like your short one liners, Granny, and stay safe.

    2. @Kasia Krakowianka the virus will die with sunlight. Go out on a sunny day if you feel sick. Or get around ultraviolet light. Virus’s always die in direct sun.

    3. Brett S he ain’t so bad, and I can’t stand billionaires lol. He’s not authoritarian, I give him credit for that

    1. @Jaime Alonzo you sound like a little kid who hasn’t passed civics and economics in high school yet. The government is not “just printing money”. I doubt you’d understand how the federal reserve banking system works if someone explained it. Keep staying “woke” loser.

    2. @Aria i know exactly how the federal reserve works.one question, is that the best picture of yourself you could post?
      Welcome to the united states fool.
      Cowards like yourself , act like jerks on line, but don’t have the balls to act this way in person.stay safe behind your computer girly/man.dont be surprized if you,re found, now that facial recognition is more prevalent.

    1. Douglas Schmidt …..the arrow is a little tiny grey rectangle in the top right corner of the area with the video title or you can just tap on a blank space anywhere in that area where the title is. Like the space under the word coronavirus and above the share-download-save buttons….. it will open up the screen with the descriptions of the video.

    2. @day tripper Wait…MADCOW is back too? Coronavirus, Bird Flu in South Carolina, and MADCOW? Things are starting to get a little crazy. 😒

    1. @Mike W Cook county brings in millions of revenue every year. Rural Illinois is nothing without the Chicago metropolitan area

    2. TheWorldIsMines 100
      Yeah, ok. 😁
      You do know that southern Illinoisans tend to be cónsérvåtive, right? 🤦‍♂️😂

  3. Dear Diary,
    143 days of quarantine in the quantum realm.There’s a squirrel that keeps coming up to my window. I know he’s baiting me to come outside, but I’m not falling for it.

    1. 😂 Baiting you. Hahaha your entry CAN’T possibly be fictional. I never saw so many birds sitting at my window, taunting me, or trying to get me to give in.
      (Praying for everyone 🙏. Try to smile🌼)

    2. 11 days in the house.
      My wife is at the window .
      Each day she looks sadder thsn the day before.
      When I looked at her today. She had a sign. That read. Honey please let me in the house.
      I held mine up. Sorry rules are rules. As Ive had contact . .
      2 more days.

    1. Vickye Norris lmao is that what msnbc told you? Is that why they don’t show them anymore? Ohhh figures. They don’t want you to hear them. They wana get that 5 second clip. Wake up sheep

    2. Hey, together, Rachel and Pritzker are a solid TEN!

      (Get it? Rachel looks like a “1,” whle Pritzker looks this a “O.” )

  4. I wish we can just use real factual numbers. All the numbers they use so far have been horribly wrong.

    1. You know there wrong when you receive a phone call demanding anyone on your ambulance who showed any signs of co19 needs to be reported positive without ever testing the patient. That indicates 1 cough and your counted positive.

    2. Sum Ting Wog trump lies about the numbers so expect anything! Can’t get a solid answer from any of them!🤮🤮🤮🤮

    1. @Jim Fix they had COPD and “other issues”. I’ve had my shots and had it 4 days, other neighbor no shots 2 weeks of termoil, own doing. This all almost 2 months ago. This is a hyped flu by the Dems who’d been trying to undermine the president since day 1. I personally like how Pelosi suddenly tried speeding up their failing phony impeachment right when the virus was actually loose supposedly unannounced to everyone else in China. You do remember Trump calling to deport Syrian refugees Nov 2015? He’d literally fought with the powers that were back then to secure borders and TSA’s to no avail. The investigations then are what’s led to Ali, Epstein, Baghdouchebaggie and many more. The media has been stuck on 2 stories this entire presidency a phony failed impeachment and a hyped up flu, both of which were meant to do nothing more but hide and distract and undermine the president the whole time while his admin had terrorists being caught and terrorist acts being thwarted. Now let’s all see what Ice Cream Peloosi eats cause that is what’s awesome. Moms and pops can’t fill their fridge with food after working but she can fill a freezer with ice cream and show it off, that’s nice.

    1. Joanne Mercader I agree with you she is corrupt. Then again whining Pritzker is no one to write about at home. His ingratitude is overwhelming. And Rachel, the States are to take the lead. Read the Constitution. And why isn’t Pritzker a xenophobe, deplorable day all the other insults you hurled at President Trump seeing as “busy” (🤮) Pritzker shut off the state? I’m pretty sure he said he was second to close Illinois to others?

      Ohhh, Governor, I thought you didn’t get PPE’s. Or was that the one day you earned your still-too-outrageous salary? Surgical masks aren’t good enough? Based on just as corrupt N.Y.’s Governor, who hit an all time low in ingratitude, don’t you think the President knew you over-shot your request?

      By the way, Rachel, where’s your gratitude towards the President? No thank you to the heroic Army Corp. of Engineers.

      You both make me sick. I hit on this link as I saw the Governor of the largest cases of black on black crime in Chicago, not very great, state of Illinois. Talk about corruption! Illinois is no. 1 in that.

    2. @Perses Rathert why should she be grateful to Trump, when Americans are dropping like flies due to his incompetence.

    1. I moved because of the government in Illinois. It’s a joke the way the governor’s lies and the rest take bribes. If you live in Chicago you get all of the money, if you live down state ( anything South of Chicago) you better hold on tight.

    1. Yes, due to the former inept and corrupt governor, a billionaire republican who ran scams with his senior care homes.

    2. @pfenix7 actually it was broke before that due to all the Democratic mismanagement in spending on non-essential and mostly failed projects for the people who are more likely to reelect them. And let’s not forget there vote to give themselves raises for all the hard work bankrupting our state. We were broke back when your boy Blagojevich was the governor.
