THAT'S THE PLAN: Having shifted the shutdown goalposts, Democrats are gutting our rights.

WUHAN FLU [CORONAVIRUS] UPDATE for April 25, 2020:

Just in time for reopening -- deaths are climbing, and the trends are worsening. That should make our governing classes very happy.

Estimated death rate via the Coronavirus Dashboard is still at 0.1%, and 83.94% of Americans are still uninfected.

A STUDY IN DOUBLE STANDARDS: Reopening Georgia and Colorado.

For the uninitiated, Republicans have standards; Democrats have double standards.

CRUEL INTOLERANCE: the defining characteristic of the Left.

[Update] Rep. Jones decided not to resign. After he wins reelection I hope he resigns from the Democrat party and becomes a Republican.

THE DIPLOMAD WRITES ON THE CHICOM VIRUS: So, what have we learned? I think the real question is not "What have we learned?" but "Will we learn at all?"

Read the whole thing.

OKAY, BUT WHO DECIDES THE RISK LEVEL? YOU? OR US? Maryland governor says state will reopen business based on risk level.

FROM ALL THINGS CONSIDERED ON NPR: Can colleges survive the coronavirus?

I think the relevant question ought to be "Should colleges survive?" Given the nationwide scourge of progressivism in our education system, I'm no longer convinced that there is any economic value in a college degree.

(And with $3 trillion in added debt due to the coronavirus 'pandemic' we need a workforce with economic value much more than we need a workforce with progressive values.)

LET'S TRY THAT PANIC BUTTON AGAIN: Centers for Disease Control (CDC) triples the number of possible coronavirus symptoms.

Racism didn't work. Russia! Russia! didn't work. Ukraine didn't work. Coronavirus is our only remaining hope....

SCIENCE! No wonder Chris Cuomo's gone bonkers....

DOESN'T SHE KNOW only Democrats can protect people?

ELECTRONS DON'T GROW ON SOLAR-POWERED TREES: Michael Moore stumbles upon the truth about so-called 'green' energy. And rejects it because he doesn't believe in science, he believes in dogma.

A WINDOW INTO THE WEIRD: These are the people for whom Science! is a watchword.

WE CAN ONLY HOPE: Coronavirus spells trouble for Democrats on impeachment and immigration.

IT TAKES AN INCREDIBLE EFFORT TO BE THIS STUPID: Study suggests Sean Hannity’s show helped spread the coronavirus.

This a wonderful example of starting with a conclusion, then creating a maze of mostly silly analyses of irrelevant factoids to create a gauzy image of their wishful thinking.

'Explanatory journalism' is the VOX-ian term for defending the indefensible.
