Democrats believe Trump is god: Blame him for the WuHu flu
Weeks ago when Trump stood up a task force to address the WuHu Flu/Cornoavirus/Covid 19 situation the most cogent comment from the left was CNN complaining that the task for was too white. But now Democrats are falling all over themselves to blame Trump for a natural disaster; a new type of flu. Given that even insurance companies know "acts of God" when they see them it would appear that by declaring that Trump controls nature itself they must be saying he's god. That would be the most credible option if Democrat politicians and pundits actually believed in God. Just kidding. De... more »

#FakeNews media guy is hoping the WuHu Flu kills old people because they don't believe in climate catastrophe

Millions Dead? What If There Is No Possible Plan to Stop Climate Change?
*John Quiggin* *Environment, Americas* In some areas of human activity such as farming, we are exhausting our capacity to adapt to climate change. There is growing evidence that Earth’s systems are heading towards climate “tipping points” beyond which change becomes abrupt and unstoppable. But another tipping point is already being crossed - humanity’s capacity to adapt to a warmer world. This season’s uncontrollable bushfires overwhelmed the nation.

If Biden Is The Democratic Nominee... The Presidency Will Hinge Not On Policy But On Comparisons Between His And Trump's Dishonesty, Family Members And Dementia
I'm no clairvoyant but it didn't take much insight to figure out that if the Democrats nominate Biden, Trump will make the race into one that asks each voter to grapple not with pressing issues-- especially since Biden, like hillary before him, doesn't really for anything other than anti-Trump-- but with who has a more repulsive corrupt family, who lies more and whose dementia is further advanced.

Capitalism Is Responsible For The Deaths Of Millions Of People
The United States' corporate media is a well-oiled machine, engineered to effectively distribute misinformation to masses of politically domesticated Americans. Like apex predators, they feast upon the minds of those who are gullible enough to believe anything their pundits spew from their duplicitous mouths. Many of the corporate media talking heads are highly skilled in the art of deception. They regularly champion convenient narratives given to them from various departments within the United States' government. This is routine regardless of the cable network.

Trump Illegally Opened Western Colorado Forests To Coal Mining
Denver— A federal appeals court today ruled that the U.S. Forest Service illegally approved a loophole allowing the coal industry to despoil unroaded National Forest lands in western Colorado.
