America Faces No Greater Threat Than Joe Biden and the Democrat Party. Their Assault to Our Borders Is As Great As Their Assault to Free Speech and Free Elections

LOS ANGELES IN COVID MELTDOWN - THE ME FIRST, ME ONLY ATTITUDE ISN'T WORKING - California began the new year reporting a record 585 deaths in a single day
How California became the COVID-19 epicenter: Poor contact tracing, lifting restrictions too early and travel are blamed for perfect storm that led to record deaths on New Year's Day and hospitals at capacity
The Los Angeles County Superspreader Task Force detained at least 900 people after shutting down five New Year’s Eve parties.
The task force also arrested or issued 90 citations and recovered at least six guns at the parties, three of them being in downtown Los Angeles, Malibu, and Pomona, KTTV reported.
The Malibu party was held at an upscale home after it had been promoted on Instagram.
The sheriff’s department showed up in the middle of the party, warning the crowd via loudspeaker, “This is the LA County Sheriff’s Department. This superspreader party is now over. Anybody who refuses to leave will be subject to arrest.”
Hundreds of people were ordered to leave immediately or face arrest or citation.
There were at least two arrests and two guns confiscated at the Malibu party.
The downtown Los Angeles party was held in a large warehouse with hundreds of people. The sheriff’s department also broke that party up.
The third New Year’s Eve party was held at a Pomona DoubleTree hotel. The sheriff’s department’s Response Team unit showed up to bust that party, citing and arresting dozens of people.
The crackdown on superspreader events in the county comes as it reports an increase in coronavirus cases.
As of Friday, Los Angeles County reported 20,414 additional cases of coronavirus and 207 additional deaths, although 40 of the deaths were associated with a backlog and reporting delays from over the holidays.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has arrested 235 people in December in connection with superspreader events.
Prediction: 150K Coronavirus-Related Deaths in Next Month
A projection from the University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation indicates 150,000 coronavirus-related fatalities will occur over the next month, with the U.S. death toll exceeding 341,000 since the start of the pandemic.
The model predicts 150,000 additional fatalities in the next month, topping the 77,000-plus reported in the U.S. in the final month of 2020. Officials and public health experts have warned that the next month could be one of the worst in terms of cases and fatalities due to the individuals partaking in holiday gatherings in the last few weeks, including Christmas and New Year’s celebrations. All the while, the new strain of the virus hailing from the United Kingdom, which is reportedly more transmissible, has been detected in at least three U.S. states: Colorado, California, and Florida.
Overall, the model’s current projection estimates 567,195 coronavirus-related deaths by April 1, 2021.
This prediction coincides with President-elect Joe Biden’s (D) recent warning that “our darkest days” of battling the pandemic lie ahead.
“One thing I promise you, about my leadership during this crisis: I’m going tell it to you straight. I’m going tell you the truth, and here is the simple truth,” Biden said in a gloomy holiday message last month:

“Our darkest days in the battle against COVID are ahead of us, not behind us,” he continued. “So we need to prepare ourselves, to steel our spines, as frustrating as it is to hear. It’s going to take patience, persistence, and determination to beat this virus.”
Pictures and videos out of Wuhan, China, showed revelers flocking to the streets to ring in the new year — a stark contrast to the scene in Times Square, which remained relatively lifeless. However, Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) managed to dance with his wife in the plaza in virtual solitude as partygoers remained home because officials shut off the area to the general public.
The U.S. has reported 19,663,976 cases of the virus and 341,199 related deaths according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data last updated December 31.
