Bet Your Life -- Vote for Democrats
I’m trying to restrain my anger and speak measuredly, but it’s damn hard to do so. (Nancy Pelosi’s latest trial balloon -- an investigation into the President’s handling of the Wuhan virus, was so preposterous it drove me into something I never do -- binge watching old TV serials, in this case “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.”) The Wuhan virus spread throughout the world due to the Chinese government’s lies, and the acts of the head of the WHO Director General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreysesus who came to that position from the violent Ethiopian Communist party and covered up for China as did the mainstream U.S. media.
Conrad Black writes at American Greatness:
The same press outlets have been engaged in a scandalous attempt to represent the Chinese response to the crisis as brilliant and to accept Beijing’s claim to have eliminated the virus within its own borders, in embarrassing contrast (they suppose) to Trumpian floundering about.In reality, the Chinese were inexcusably dishonest in withholding the proportions of the coronavirus outbreak, have not uttered a truthful word about it up to and including this week -- as they claim to have had almost no further fatalities and none at all in the past few days; and were extremely negligent in not moving promptly to restrict outward travel and warn the world.The same American press which has acclaimed the official Chinese performance with an adulatory hallelujah chorus have railed against President Trump for following the normal practice of identifying the coronavirus geographically. The subordination of the World Health Organization as a cheerleader for China’s odium and criminality will require that the entire leadership of the WHO to be sacked and replaced by people in whom it is possible to have some confidence.By the time this horrible virus has ravaged the underdeveloped world -- which is completely unprepared to deal with it and where the danger of horrific human devastation is the fear that dare not speak its name -- the complacent support of the corrupt leadership of the United Nations and its agencies by African and Asian states may have abated.
Their actions should not be ignored. But the actions of some elected Democratic officials doubtless contributed greatly to the spread of the disease, and as we show, seem to have had a disproportionate effect on the poor -- especially African Americans in these states and cities, the very blocs of voters who voted them into office.
The people most at risk from the virus are the elderly and the immune-suppressed. Diabetics, pre-diabetics, those with high blood pressure, and the grossly overweight are immune-suppressed and seem hardest hit. At least in NY, these conditions are found disproportionately in the black community.
The contagion also seems concentrated in denser urban areas and among the poor, who must rely on public transportation, live in closer quarters, and whose lack of storage space mean they must risk shopping more often for food and essential supplies. This picture seems clear in NYC. In Southern California the picture may be more closely related to travel from China and crowded conditions in areas with lots of illegal immigrants -- post-virus analysis may clarify that.
New York City's and California’s loony politicos are hooked on identity politics and see racism everywhere, ignoring objective science. The consequences of ignoring reality: overwhelmed medical facilities, lack of proper medical equipment, and soaring death rates.
Daniel Greenfield, writing at Frontpage Magazine, dissects in depth the role of identity politics in New York City, a case history in the consequences of stupid politics and utter mismanagement.
In brief, Mayor de Blasio’s City Health Commissioner, Oxiris Barbot, is a radical who previously served as Health Commissioner of Baltimore where she “had given the city’s race rioters ‘space to destroy.’” Space which continues after her move to New York to result in a soaring murder rate.
She boasted of seeing health policy through a “racial equity lens,” a lens so fogged that she concentrated on discouraging those arriving from Wuhan from going into self-quarantine and encouraging New Yorkers to attend the Lunar New Year celebrations in the city.
"As we gear up to celebrate the #LunarNewYear in NYC, I want to assure New Yorkers that there is no reason for anyone to change their holiday plans, avoid the subway, or certain parts of the city because of #coronavirus," she insisted.By then there had already been over 17,000 cases of the Wuhan Virus in China with nearly 3,000 new cases in one day. For the first time, someone outside Mainland China had died of the disease.Manhattan’s Chinatown, where Barbot had appeared, is one of the densest parts of the city. The old core community where the Lunar New Year celebration is based is a maze of cramped tenements, narrow streets, tiny stores whose counters extend far into the street, and other unsafe conditionsBarbot went on urging people to participate in the parade while spreading misinformation about the risk. “You won’t get it merely from riding the subways -- you get it from secretions,” she even claimed.
To her, the enemy was racial prejudice, not a rapidly transmissible, often deadly virus with a spread we can only hope to reduce by practicing social distance and good hygiene.
New York’s health authorities ignored objective research and placed the city’s residents at great risk, and the outbreak exploded.
So blinded by identity politics was the mayor that he never even ordered protective equipment until mid-March.
A staggering 6,582 additional people tested positive for the deadly bug since Thursday evening, bringing the city’s total confirmed cases to 56,289. Another 305 New Yorkers died from the virus, pushing the death toll up to 1,867.More than 1,100 more coronavirus patients were hospitalized in the past day. Since the outbreak 11,739 people have been hospitalized. The city’s ICU capacity is at 88 percent with just 370 beds left unfilled.Mayor Bill de Blasio said Friday, just before the new statistics were released, that the coming days will be even darker.
In fact, de Blasio’s rejection of science and utter mismanagement is matched only by his ignorance of the law. This week, the dictatorial nitwit decided we should draft doctors and nurses to help his people out of the mess for which he bears no small degree of responsibility. Tom Maguire reports:
The greatest city in the world is teetering on the brink so its Mayor seizes the opportunity to remind us he is a useless buffoon:
- COVID-19: De Blasio urges US enlistment program for doctors and nurses
- Mayor calls for medics to be moved to places in greatest need
- New York City prepares for surge in coronavirus cases
- "Enlistment program"?!? WHAT did he say?
- New York City’s mayor, Bill de Blasio, has called for a national enlistment program for doctors and nurses, to handle an expected surge in coronavirus cases in New York and across the US.
- “If we’re fighting a war, let’s act like we’re fighting a war,” he told reporters on Friday.
- "...unless the military is fully mobilized and we create something we’ve never had before, which is some kind of national enlistment of medical personnel moved to the most urgent needs in the country constantly … if we don’t have that we’re going to see hospitals simply unable to handle so many people who could be saved.”
OK, that won't be happening. As a minor point, there is no time for Congress to pass the relevant legislation. As a major point, this is still America, we abandoned the draft decades ago, and we don't force people to work at gunpoint.And how would it work? NY hospitals are short of Protective Personal Equipment. So the Feds are going to threaten to arrest some doctor in Vermont unless he gets down to NY and imperils himself by treating coronavirus patients? And if the good people of the great state of Vermont need health care down the road, NY promises to send their doctor back, unless he's sick or dead or super busy saving New Yorkers in which case, well, that's a problem for another day? [snip]As a further illustration that desperate times require desperate short-sightedness, this order by Gov. Cuomo is outrageous:Cuomo said he would sign an executive order that allows the national guard to take ventilators and personal protective equipment from institutions that don’t need them right now and redistribute them to those that do. He said those institutions would either have their ventilators returned to them or get reimbursements. Cuomo said there may be several hundred ventilators available because of the order.Right now, the state is fielding a daily need for about 300 additional ventilators, he said. Those ventilators, officials have repeatedly explained, make the difference between life and death.“Am I willing to deploy the national guard and inconvenience people for several hundred lives? You’re damn right I am,” Cuomo said…I guess Gov. Cuomo's message is "tough luck".
Nancy Pelosi
The first reference I can find of a mysterious virus in Wuhan was one in Mandarin dated December 31, 2019, three weeks before the Pelosi-promoted California congressman Adam Schiff’s impeachment trial, which began on January 21. One day after the ill-fated impeachment trial began, the CDC reported the first domestic virus case and the New York Times reported that the Chinese government was quarantining Wuhan. Eight days after the first case was reported in the U.S., the president formed the coronavirus task force. That same day WHO declared the virus a Global Health emergency. The next day (January 31), the President declared a public health emergency, quarantined U.S. citizens returning from China’s Hubei Province and restricted entry into the U.S. from China. (The Democrats charged him with racism for doing so though this step has proven critical to slowing the spread of the virus here.)
Two days later, on February 2, he suspended entry of others who posed a risk of transmitting the virus (and thereafter, added to suspension of entry people from other countries where the virus was appearing). On February 4 in his State of the Union address, he warned of the virus. Nancy Pelosi in a public temper tantrum and show of contempt ripped up her copy of the State of the Union address.
On February 24, twenty days after the President issued his warning about the virus and almost one month after he restricted entry from China, Nancy Pelosi publicly stated that people should pay no attention to the coronavirus fears and joined crowds in San Francisco’s Chinese lunar new years' celebrations, “We think it’s very safe,” she said.
On March 11, The President suspended travel from Europe, and the WHO officially declared the virus a pandemic. The following day, NYC declared a state of emergency and issued a statewide ban on all large gatherings.
I can only imagine what the death toll will be in California. San Francisco has immune-suppressed HIV-AIDs affected citizens (about 12,985 people living with HIV in San Francisco) and thousands of homeless people living on the streets. So far, the homeless do not seem particularly affected, but if (or once) it makes an appearance there, I suspect it will take a substantial toll. I suppose many of these people are already quite unhealthy, live cheek by jowl outdoors on feces-heaped streets, and lack access to means to practice proper hygiene. California also has a large number of immigrants -- in recent years, largely from Asia:
The majority of recent arrivals are from Asia.The vast majority of California’s immigrants were born in Latin America (50%) or Asia (40%). California has sizable populations of immigrants from dozens of countries; the leading countries of origin are Mexico (4.1 million), China (969,000), the Philippines (857,000), Vietnam (524,000), and India (507,000). However, most (56%) of those arriving between 2010 and 2017 came from Asia; only 29% came from Latin America.
At the moment the virus is racing faster through Southern California than Northern California, with Los Angeles County hardest hit. Santa Clara County with a high percentage of Asian population (37%) was hard hit as well though at the moment Los Angeles is hardest of the California counties hit.
I have for reasons for space and time limited the discussion largely to di Blasio and Pelosi, but they are certainly not the only Democratic politicians whose foolishness proves they are never to be trusted at the times we need sound political leadership most.
If you vote for people like these, you bet your life (and mine).

Ruling Class Held Hostage
by Trump’s Impeachment
Every year 3 million
visitors make the pilgrimage to Ellis Island. It is estimated nearly
forty percent of all Americans can trace their ancestors to the 20 million
immigrants that were processed through New York and Ellis Island from 1892 to
1954. These prospective citizens were determined to escape authoritarianism,
soul grinding poverty, war and its aftermath, immutable class structures as
well as religious and ethnic persecution.
Once here they would
immerse themselves in learning English and the nation’s founding documents in
preparation for the most gut wrenching (passing the oral citizenship test) and
emotional (the swearing in ceremony) day in their lives. Thanks to their
life experience and their determination to be citizens of the only nation in
the history of mankind to be founded on the principle that all men are created
equal, these newly minted Americans were among the most loyal and most
well-versed in the nation’s founding.
What would the vast
majority of those that willingly left everything behind to travel for up to
three weeks, oftentimes across a storm-tossed ocean and relegated to the
unsanitary and wretched conditions in steerage, think of the impeachment of
Donald Trump?
Nearly all of the nations
whence these immigrants came were governed by an immutable class
structure. At the apex of this rigid class pyramid was either a monarchy
and its attendant birthright nobility or a dictatorship and its coercive
administrative hierarchy or a communist oligarchy and its implacable
bureaucracy. Class mobility was at the whim and discretion of the
autocrat or the oligarchy.
These nameless and
faceless masses had virtually no say in their nation’s governance and they were
at the mercy of the economic and foreign policy of the ruling elites.
They were viewed as being grossly inferior, uneducable and deplorable --
thus mere pawns to be sacrificed in the country’s wars and were little more
than indentured servants to the ruling class.
On the other hand, thanks
to a Constitution constructed to prevent the ascendancy of any one faction into
a position of permanent power and the evolution of a rigid ruling class
hierarchy, the United States possessed the framework and opportunity for anyone
to succeed and live in peace and economic security thus attracting millions to
its shores.
However, beginning in the
1960’s many of those that came through Ellis Island began to notice a change in
the relatively benign and Constitution-oriented governing class. With the
exponential growth of government, a new and potentially destructive class
structure began to evolve, one that was reminiscent of ruling class supremacy
in those nations they had escaped.
A mindset, alien to 170
years of American history, took root amid overwhelming peace and
prosperity. A growing faction in the country began to believe that
they were pre-ordained to govern as they were superior to the unwashed masses,
particularly racial and ethnic minorities as well as those steeped in religion
and morality. Over the years the proponents of this belief infiltrated
the universities and the media-entertainment complex creating an ever-growing
army of narcissists and authoritarians which mutated into today’s American
Ruling Class.
Angelo Codevilla writing
in the American Spectator identified the characteristics of
the American Ruling Class as follows:
Today’s ruling class,
from Boston to San Diego, was formed by an educational system that exposed them
to the same ideas and gave them remarkably uniform guidance, as well as taste
and habits. Regardless of what business or profession they are in, their
road up included government channels and government money because, as
government has grown, its boundary with the rest of American life has become
indistinct. Many began their careers in government and leveraged their
way into the private sector.
Its attitude is key to
understanding our bipartisan ruling class. Its first tenet is that “we”
are the best and brightest while the rest of Americans are retrograde, racist,
and dysfunctional unless properly constrained.
Our ruling class’s agenda
is power for itself. While it stakes its claims through
intellectual-moral pretense, it holds power by one of the oldest and most
prosaic of means: patronage and promises thereof. Like left-wing parties
always and everywhere, it is a “machine,” that is, based on providing tangible
rewards to its members. Hence our ruling class’s standard approach to any
and all matters, its solution to any and all problems, is to increase the power
of the government-- meaning of those who run it, meaning themselves.
By taxing and parceling
out more than a third of what Americans produce through regulations that reach
deep into American life, our ruling class is making itself the arbiter of
wealth and poverty.
The ruling class is
keener to reform the American people’s family and spiritual lives than their
economic and civic ones. It believes that the Christian family (and the
orthodox Jewish one too) is rooted in and perpetuates the ignorance commonly
called religion that is the greatest barrier to human progress. This
dismissal of the American people’s intellectual, spiritual, and moral substance
is the very heart of what our ruling class is about.
[Lastly,] America’s best
and brightest believe themselves qualified and duty bound to direct the lives
of not only Americans but of foreigners as well. Its default solution to
international threats has been to commit blood and treasure to long-term,
twilight efforts to reform the world’s Vietnams, Somalias, Iraqs and
Afghanistans.
Since the Reagan era, the
American Ruling Class has succeeded in electing George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton,
George W. Bush and Barack Obama, all of whom were members in good
standing. Thus, by 2016 the ruling elites were thoroughly entrenched
and dominant throughout the halls of power. They were prepared to
govern this nation for many years to come as one of the flaws in the
magnificent governing blueprint set up by the founding fathers was the reality
that this government can only function with just two major political
parties. Both political party hierarchies had and fully intended to
continue nominating candidates for the presidency and Congress who were either
beholden to or members of the ruling class. The rank and file voters were
left with only superficial differences in the choice of candidates.
The election of Donald
Trump in 2016 was an act of defiance and a rebellion by the deplorables and a
devastating blow to the ruling elites. With his election, President
Trump began the process of a Republican Party divorce from the establishment --
which is now well underway. Thus, the ruling class’s political
hegemony is severely threatened. They cannot achieve their endgame
without de facto control of both parties. Which is why Donald Trump may
well be the most influential President in modern American history.
The Democrat party is now
becoming near exclusive home of the ruling class, as can be borne out by recent
Congressional elections. Before the 2018 mid-term elections, the richest 66
House districts were split 38 Democrats and 28 Republican. After the
election the Democrats held 56 and the Republicans 10 In the 15 districts
where at least 50% of the population have a college degree, all are represented
by Democrats as of 2018, whereas the Democrats controlled 13 of 15 in
2016.

Nancy Pelosi: Cancer on the body politic
"Nancy Pelosi is a cancer on the body politic."
Those are the words of
Mark Levin and he is profoundly correct. It is actually an
understatement. This woman has dedicated her entire recent term to
impeaching President Trump over a phone call. She stupidly bought
into Adam Schiff’s lunacy that they had the evidence that the president
had threatened the president of Ukraine with a quid pro quo
-- either investigate the Clinton campaign’s meddling in
the 2016 election or else. None of that was true, any more than
the Russia collusion hoax, but Pelosi still gambled that she could take out
Trump with that phony ploy. It was Biden who threatened Ukraine with an
actual quid pro quo -- either fire the man
investigating my son or lose a billions dollars in U.S. aid.
Then came the Wuhan
virus. Oh my, were the Democrats thrilled. This would
be the crisis they could use, manipulate to their desired end. This
is how utterly stupid these Democrats are! This is how malicious
they are; they are ready and willing to destroy the United States
economy to take down a president they abhor. Why do the loathe him
so? Because he is effective and successful. The American
people, those not members of the political/academic class, love this
man. They love him for a myriad of good reasons. Chief among them is
that he recognizes and respects them, unlike the partisans of the left who view
most Americans as nothing more than flotsam and jetsam, inconveniences they
must tolerate. So superior to the worth of most citizens do the
likes of those who inhabit Pelosi’s circle of pals see themselves,
they suffer no unease over dismissing us as invalid. That so many of
us love and revere President Trump makes us all the more worthy of their
dripping disdain.
Nancy Pelosi is a blight
upon her district. San Francisco is a disaster about which she
cares nothing. It is a city ravaged by drug abuse, homelessness,
rampant crime and all the other scourges of leftism. She lives
extravagantly in her gated mansion. She lives a life of wealth
and privilege in city suffering a civilizational collapse created and orchestrated
by her own party. She revels in it. She has become a
near-billionairess by way of politics of the most corrupt
variety. She is indeed a cancer on the body politic.
How do sentient people
watch her on any of the many cable news programs on which she appears listen to
her blather and lies? She accuses the president of “fiddling while
people are dying.” What nonsense. He was on the case while she was
obsessed with impeaching him! He banned flights from China in
January, created a task force to address the virus but the left-media did not
notice. She was encouraging the people of San Francisco to join the
crowd in Chinatown to celebrate Chinese New Year in late
February! She and Schiff et al were so were obsessed with
impeaching him they ignored the Wuhan virus completely. It was as
though they actually thought they could remove him from office! That
is how deluded they are. Pelosi still is. She shows up
all over cable TV with her surgically-modified, botoxed face, her red
lipstick reminiscent of the RuPaul’s drag queen show and expects
that Americans will pay attention to anything she has to say. She has become a
joke, a punchline.
Anyone paying attention
to anything Pelosi has to say at this moment in time is mentally
challenged. That would be the same people who think Joe Biden is a
viable candidate for the presidency, a man so obviously in the throes of
dementia it is a mystery why no one, especially his wife, has not put a stop to
his campaign. Biden is pathetic, always a man of little or no character
-- and a racist. What he did to Clarence Thomas with relish was
obscene, a window into his inner depravity. At this point in time,
Biden is no more presidential material than Lenny of Mice and Men. Joe
Biden is as much a cancer on the body politic as Nancy Pelosi. He is
a shallow empty suit who has long enjoyed and abused the power vested in him as
a senator. He is also a creep. He fondles and sniffs women and girls
so chronically he should probably be on the sex offender registry. And
this is the man the Democrat party is running as their candidate for the
presidency!
What the Democrat party
has become is a tragedy for America. We need to be a two-party
nation, with each seeking adherence to the Constitution. But over
the eight years of the Obama administration and his commitment to transforming
America, the Democrat party was indeed transformed. It is now fully
socialist and authoritarian, anti-First Amendment, anti-Second Amendment,
anti-freedom and anti-Constitutional. The left has no tolerance for
persons who are pro-life, pro-Second Amendment, pro-capitalism,
pro-liberty. The economic system that has brought untold millions
out of poverty is their enemy. They want and lobby for the
dependency of the masses who they believe will be certified democrat voters. Our
left has been transformed into a vicious mob of anti-American
fascists. Elect or re-elect any of them to office and we will get
what we deserve, a nightmare of unimaginable proportions. Pelosi and her ilk are
not only certifiably insane, they are well and truly evil. Their
intentions for the wealth and sanctity of this nation as founded are
malicious. She and her fellow elitists could not care less for the
citizens they were elected to represent. This is why they are
unable to grasp why so many of us love this president; he does care about all
the folks they disregard – all those people who are bringing food to our
markets, stocking the shelves, still picking up our trash, taking care of those
who are sick across the nation. This pandemic crisis has
demonstrated for all to see that the American left is as much an
enemy of America as China.
