In looking at our country today it seems to me that there are actually two viruses attacking America. I think they come from the same place. How do I know? Because both viruses act the same and seem to use the same method of propagation. The first virus is of course the corona virus. Viruses (whether corona virus, zika, hiv, influenza, polio or others) are not living things. Think of viruses like you would a robot. This is an unusual robot, however, because viruses want to make copies of themselves, and they start with deception to do it. The...

They are aligned with Communist/Marxist leanings. They and the useful idiots they employ attempt to silence their opposition through accusatory hyp...
We're still hearing a lot about "mask mandates" in COVID-19 era America, but my experiences (and those of acquaintances) over the last few days suggest that the supposed mandates have functionally become mere advisories. In my opinion, that's a good thing. Generally speaking, we're all better off when personal health decisions are left to individuals than when government presumes to make those decisions for everyone. Many Americans began voluntarily donning masks when "public health authorities" were still yelling at us not to, and drastically...
