So it is a scam?

VIDEO — Inslee Tells Bernie ‘COVID is Excuse to Push Green Tactics’


"We should not miss an opportunity to drive home what Varshini was talking about, that this has enormous backing in our constituents to understand the economic necessity of this. And we should not be intimidated when people say, 'Oh, you can't use this COVID crisis, you know, to peddle a solution to climate change.' No. We have to recognize the necessity of this moment that this will allow us to rebuild our economy and jump-start it. It was a necessity before the COVID crisis. It is an absolute requirement now to rebuild our economy. And we shouldn't be intimidated by Republicans about this at all. The last thing I'll say is we can't use code as an excuse for inaction on climate change. These are two things we have to deal with and we can deal with both because they're so similar. They both are similar that they're based on understanding of science, they're both similar in understanding that this is under our control."

So Jay, when I also see the models used have been disproven, and numbers inflated to support the shutdown how can I not suspect the global warming agenda is driving the shutdown and not the COVID data?

Talk about arrogance.

Viruses and Global climate are under OUR control.

Howdy.  Busy day here.  


Had a nice day with Little OR yesterday, we took a long walk in which we ran into his Pre-K teacher, which was a pleasant surprise (he was delighted); and he got to see an actual robot... this funny little food-delivery robotic cart that drives around the neighborhood as of late.  That, too, was lots of fun for him.

I was thinking yesterday, after watching all the nitwits with their masks at Publix, that I should wear a mask and write on it "Virtue Signal."

The constant invocation of "science" by these idiots is truly obnoxious.

i'm beginning to think that the purpose of the extended shutdown is to create a sort of "free-market Socialist revolution," state by state.  If the entire state can't stand the shutdown any more, and everyone opens up, then the government will simply levy crippling, nay, confiscatory fines upon all the businesses, and landlords---and confiscate the lot.  Socialism by fine instead of revolution, with the state ultimately owning enough of everything to control what it has not confiscated.  "Unconstitutional?" Heavens, no---the states still have the "republican form of government" they are guaranteed by the Constitution, and the fines for violating the government orders are a state matter.
