A BIOCHEMIST’S ANALYSIS of President Trump’s coronavirus press conference.
I CERTAINLY HOPE SO: Could Bernie Sanders do to Democrats what Jeremy Corbyn did to UK's Labour Party?
ANGELO CODEVILLA: Intelligence and the Democrats’ internal affairs.
By spearheading #TheResistance to candidate and then President Trump, U.S. intelligence agencies have shown the public they are far less about informing the government about foreign enemies than they are about taking the leading part in the Democratic Party’s use of power over its domestic adversaries.
Then there's this quote: "Donald Trump barks but mostly does not bite. Nobody fears Trump. Bernie Sanders and his zealots are another story." My personal suspicion is that the 'nobody fears Donald Trump' part is about to be proven wrong.
WINNING IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU IGNORE THE IDIOTOCRACY AND SOLDIER ON: An American Dream oasis in the outraged wilderness.
THE ONE DEMOCRAT scaring Ann Coulter isn't Bernie Sanders.

I agree with Ann; Sanders is just a nut case who couldn't plan his way out of a paper sack.
YOU.HAVE.GOT.TO.BE.KIDDING.ME: Attempts to sell guns to minorities and women is ‘incredibly dangerous’.

To whom? The gun control nutters?
THANKS BE TO GOD! The Supreme Court will accept the Philadelphia foster-care religious-liberty case.

The issue is the refusal of the city of Philadelphia to work with Catholic Social Services because of a perceived conflict over LGBT issues.
Foster care is an issue area where more of us need to be working together, not shutting people out based on their traditional religious beliefs.... The idea that it is so unthinkable to work with a person who believes marriage was meant for a man and a woman is clearly out of control. These children who are languishing because of the tyranny that is developing around it had better be a wake-up call for us to be serious people protecting children and giving them a chance at life.
The social justice warriorship is clearly nuts.
'TRUMPING' CNN: Jim Acosta makes a fool of himself (again).
INSTAPUNDIT has another link-rich coronavirus update. Maybe it's just me, but I'm inclined to believe it's mostly BS, overreaction, and hype.

I don't doubt the sincerity of the health care community, but after 75 years on this planet, I do question their expertise.

As for the media and the Left (yes, I know I'm repeating myself), I'm convinced they're doing their level best to scare the bejeezus out of us to enhance their power and control (with them, it's always about power and control).
THE NEW 'LOST GENERATION': Hangin’ with the ‘Bernie Bros’ on Nevada victory night.

Disappointing, but expected.
FIRST THINGS: Diversity is a bore.
ANOTHER RANDOM THOUGHT: Idealists create problems; pragmatists solve them.

I think you can guess the political parties in which each group congregates.
DEEP STATE SNAKES slither back. And they'll keep coming back until the heads are severed.
CONNECTICUT STUDENTS ARRESTED ... for saying things.
THE LOSER ESTABLISHMENT is rightfully terrified of Ric Grenell.
MORNING GREATNESS: almost in toto today.
The Coronavirus, like everything these days, has turned into a political football. It’s so predictable but very unfortunate because pandemics are serious business.

We had clucking from Pelosi and Schumer because President Trump didn’t ask for enough money, he asked for $2.5B and they said the amount should be $8.5B. Why not have a call and discuss what the proper amount is and what we need to do to prepare “just in case?” Why aren’t our elected officials working together for the public interest? Those politicians who would use this potential crisis for political advantage are disgusting, hateful human beings. The Democrats don’t want Trump to handle the virus problem successfully or smoothly because they don’t want the president to look good. But that also means they don’t care if you or your family get sick and die.

We also heard criticisms because President Trump didn’t come out immediately with his hair on fire, screaming DANGER! DANGER! What is he supposed to do? Start a national panic? Hold a press conference wearing one of those containment suits and announce “WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE!”? The president’s job in a time of uncertainty is provide reliable information and calm the public against a massive panic.

Would any of the Trump critics support stopping all international flights from entering the U.S.? I think if the president did come out and suggest we shut the borders down for public health reasons all his “critics” saying he isn’t doing enough, would melt down. Has any member of the media asked the presidential candidates specific questions about how they would handle this health crisis better than Trump? No, of course not, because the media and the Democrats want to score political points.

Every effort should be made to prepare for a possible outbreak without regard for the political score board. I hope people see how they are held in contempt by the political elite who would risk their health and well being to obtain more power.
My only addition is to modify Liz Sheld's last sentence: "I hope political elite who would risk their citizens' health and well being to obtain more power see how they are held in contempt by the people."
“THE LGBT COMMUNITY has become a safe haven for the mentally unstable." The video is an hilarious indictment of the progressive insane asylum.
WHY BILL MAKING GUN-FREE BUSINESSES LIABLE needs to pass.
There need to be repercussions for moments when someone’s virtue signaling gets other people hurt.
Nationwide, not just in one state.
ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ: Charter schools for mine, but not for thine.
TWITTER beats down Mayor Pete. Click through both links, but put down the coffee first (and make popcorn).
