The Pelosi Recession

Few have been more unwilling to not let the crisis go to waste than Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.). She delayed passage of the last bailout bill by more than a week, floating a 1,400-page counter-proposal jam-packed with special handouts and diversity mandates. She has pushed tax cuts for blue-state billionaires and commended her colleagues for delaying Republican efforts to shore up the economy.

Sources Believe Coronavirus Outbreak Originated in Wuhan Lab

There is increasing confidence that the COVID-19 outbreak likely originated in a Wuhan laboratory, though not as a bioweapon but as part of China's attempt to demonstrate that its efforts to identify and combat viruses are equal to or greater than the capabilities of the United States, multiple sources who have been briefed on the details of early actions by China's government and seen relevant materials tell Fox News.

Investigate the Wuhan Lab

The virus's genetic code and its nonmaximal mortality rates suggest it came from a bat rather than a bioweapons lab project. Even if the science is strong that it originated with animal-to-human transmission, however, it's plausible that it could have been the result of botched research into bats that infected a lab worker and got outside the facility.

I notice that the same people telling Americans they must remain at home indefinitely were indignant about closing bathhouses in response to the AIDS epidemic. Back then, the media and gays said: “How dare you ask us to shut down the bathhouses! They’re part of gay culture. It would be like asking Catholics to stop visiting the Sistine Chapel” But putting the entire country under stay-at-home orders? No problem.

 A million American lives are needlessly lost every single year, mostly from tobacco, followed by overeating and alcohol. Yet this hasn’t changed a thing; they are all legal. Why? Because of freedom and economics. You see, it’s your American right to smoke, drink, and overeat—just as it is the tobacco, alcohol, food, and drug companies’ right to profit from it.

The Pandemic Should Bring the Death of Birth Tourism

America’s immigration problems are akin to a virus itself, with many strains and mutations. One problem that should be quickly targeted and terminated in the post-coronavirus world is the birth tourism scam.

Media on Coronavirus: Stenographers for the Elite

Reflexive opposition to President Trump means that the press has placed itself in a curious echo chamber with him. When he says something, almost literally anything, they feel that they need to correct it. If Trump is preaching hope, they need to correct it with despair. If Trump says this virus came from China, they have to say that it came from Europe. 

Europe Goes Back to Work

European politicians understand their economies have been in lockdown for months already and the economic and social costs aren’t sustainable. No one thinks a big-bang reopening is feasible, but making it past the peak disaster in hospitals or avoiding excessive stress on health-care systems allows for a phased return to whatever the post-virus normal will be.

Kurt Schlichter:  Do you think that millions of college students and their parents haven’t noticed that the only difference between staring at a screen and staring at some hippie burnout prof run his filthy bunghole is that the students aren’t getting hammered in the dorms every night? The four-year party model of post-secondary education was headed for retirement anyway and this is really ripping away academia’s lame claims that campuses are necessary to get a real education.

Unlimited powers now imposed at the whims of politicians. Protesting is a non-essential activity. As is going to church to exercise our religions.  Then it will be the confiscation of guns from law-abiding citizens. Once you let one right go without challenge, the others will follow.

Radical Islamists of all stripes — from the Islamic State to the Islamic Republic of Iran — continue to spew conspiracy theories on the origins of the coronavirus. Jihadist groups like ISIS praise COVID-19 as divine punishment against infidels. Others, like Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, claim that the United States developed the coronavirus to hurt its adversaries.

WHO’s mishandling of the coronavirus pandemic needs confronting before it does more damage. In particular, the organization spent weeks echoing Beijing’s lies about the threat and urging action that served the needs of China’s rulers — but not the world’s health.

Ben Shapiro: We should be looking to send young, healthy people back to work, and urging social distancing and isolation for those who are elderly or have preexisting conditions that raise coronavirus risks. We should retain social distancing for the young and healthy, urge mask wearing, and perform contact tracing when hot spots arise. We should continue to avoid large-scale gatherings.
