You mean to tell me that China's claim of having only 80,000 coronavirus cases is probably a lie? I am shocked:
A leaked database from a Chinese military-run university suggests the country may have at least 640,000 COVID-19 cases — a figure substantially higher than Beijing’s dubious claim that it has seen just 80,000 coronavirus infections.

NYC Health Commissioner Dr. Oxiris Barbot supposedly told a high ranking official she doesn't "give two rats' a**es about your cops" when a high-ranking official asked for more masks. The conversation between the two "took place as increasing numbers of cops were calling out sick with symptoms of COVID-19 but before the department suffered its first casualties from the deadly respiratory disease, sources said." The NYPD union called her a "b*tch" with "blood on her hands."

Barber Karl Manke, 77, became a star after he opened his shop in Owosso, MI, on May 4, despite Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's shutdown orders. He faced a "90-day misdemeanor and/or a $500 fine." The state requested "a temporary restraining order" because officials considered him "an immediate threat to the public." So state regulators stripped Manke's license.

The Wuhan coronavirus shutdown continues to affect the economy as another 2.9 million Americans filed for unemployment claims last week. While the number continues to decrease, it means 35 million Americans have filed claims in the past two months.

CNN host Brian Stelter lost his damn mind on Sunday's Reliable Sources because some people in the media had the nerve to report the news not related to the Wuhan coronavirus. They had the audacity to address the issue that the FBI might have set up former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn. Stelter considered it an "obsession" because nothing can ever top the pandemic!

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi never lets a crisis go to waste to grab more power even as people suffer from the lockdown due to the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak. On MSNBC, Pelosi made it known that she views "everything as an opportunity." She also made it known she doesn't care about working with Republicans because it's important for the Democrats to present their relief bill "without too much conversation."

The Department of Justice dropped its case against former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn on Thursday due to new information. The DOJ also released documents in its motion. These documents showed President Barack Obama knew details from Flynn's wire-tapped calls, and then-Acting Attorney General Rod Rosenstein expanded the Russia-Trump collusion probe beyond its primary scope.

The House Intelligence Committee released documents related to its investigation of possible collusion between then-candidate Donald Trump's campaign and Russia. Chairman Adam Schiff always said he had ironclad evidence Trump's campaign had help from Russia. Except he did not. In fact, none of the top people in President Barack Obama's administration had any direct evidence of collusion.
