With all the Wuhan coronavirus news, leftist powerplays, and shutdown edicts, we haven't focused as much on the upcoming election. On November 3, we'll be electing not just a president but also deciding who controls both houses of Congress.

Bill Maher is a liberal, but every once in a while, he gets it right. In his HBO 'Real Time' program on Friday night, he dressed down the media for their coverage of the coronavirus crisis which he described as fear mongering. He noted Trump's optimism and advised the media that they are actually helping Trump win reelection.

With neighboring countries struggling with the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak, Beijing is tightening its control of disputed islands in the South China Sea.

These man-made islands have since been converted into military installations, naval bases, and aircraft landing strips for the Chinese military.

Report: Obama eager to ride to Biden’s rescue by attacking Trump on coronavirus response

Posted by William A. Jacobson on April 18, 2020 52 Comments

Joe Biden doesn't have what it takes to take on Trump. He's become a sad figure as he struggles to complete sentences, keep track of his thoughts, and find words. He never should have been pushed to run for president. I covered the unfortunate series of Biden brain freezes recently in Being off center stage has helped Biden, who struggles even in friendly interviews.

The desire to "get" President Trump is so overwhelming that Democrats and their media cohorts are almost daily caught in some type of fabrication, truth-stretching, or outright lie.

We've covered the unreasonable edicts flowing from leftist local and state governments, and now the mayors of New York City and Los Angeles are urging people to report their fellow citizens for social distancing violations and for "operating a business illegally."

Being off center stage has helped Biden, who struggles even in friendly interviews

Posted by William A. Jacobson on April 17, 2020 25 Comments

While a lot of pundit claim that the Wuhan coronavirus crisis has damaged Joe Biden's campaign by pushing him off center stage, in fact being off center stage is the best things that's happened to Biden's campaign. Biden obviously had 'cognitive decline' issues -- that's not a medical diagnosis, but an observation any honest person watching him in action the past few months recognizes. He repteadedly loses track of what he is saying, has trouble finding words, and appears to read from notes in what should be spontaneous interviews.
