   Underreported news. COVID
   While the media has focused mainly on Florida, Texas, and Arizona (The Trifecta, all R Governors), CA is getting slammed. More specifically, LA County. LA County as ten million people, Florida has 20 million. So, why is LA County’s numbers only ten-twelve thousand short of Florida’s numbers. And this is looking at numbers coming in that are from two weeks ago.

    This one is not going away, not even close –
    The documents, which were received through a Freedom of Information Act request by the conservative-leaning group Judicial Watch, indicate the younger Biden took 411 domestic and international flights upon which the federal government provided security between June 2009 and May 2014. Listed among the destinations were 29 foreign countries, including five visits to China alone between 2009 and 2014.
    One of those five visits, in particular, has raised concerns. In December 2013, Hunter Biden flew aboard Air Force Two with his father to Beijing. The trip was part of an official state visit the then-vice president was making to the country amid escalating tensions with the United States over islands in the South China Sea.
    Although it is unclear exactly what transpired during the visit, Hunter Biden entered into a lucrative business arrangement shortly afterward. Only 12 days after the trip, the younger Biden inked a multibillion-dollar deal with a subsidiary of the state-owned Bank of China.
    The deal, which was the first of its kind, created Bohai Harvest RST (BHR) as a private equity fund to invest Chinese money overseas. Once BHR was up and running, the firm proceeded to invest heavily in energy and defense projects. Some of those investments, however, have caught the attention of congressional lawmakers, including, most notably, BHR’s investment in a company blacklisted by the U.S. government for suspicion of helping the Chinese government violate human rights and the fund’s purchase of an American firm with insight into military technology in 2015.
    As BHR’s purchase of the latter required approval by the Obama administration’s Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, the Senate Finance Committee has begun probing whether there was any conflict of interest in the matter. The Finance Committee’s investigation still appears to be ongoing.
    Hunter Biden, for his part, resigned from BHR’s board of director years last year amid public scrutiny. It is unclear, though, if he has kept his ten percent stake in the fund, which is estimated to be worth millions.

    “The people coming on these [H-1B] visas have built this country,” Biden added.
    “He said the H-1Bs built this country? So the country didn’t exist before 1998? That is interesting,” responded Rosemary Jenks, policy director at NumbersUSA. If Biden is elected, she said:
    I think we will see an increased number of parents realizing that their children will not do better than they did, and that is the antithesis of the American dreams. If many college graduates cannot get good jobs, well-paying jobs, they are not going to be as successful as their parents, and we will have reversed one of the foundational principles of America. – that we are a country of opportunity.
    We’re already seen that the most recent high school and college grads are looking at what’s ahead of them and they are very insecure and they are very depressed. The question is how to they respond to that environment? They can take whatever job they can find, or do they rebel and go out and tear down statues?

    PaulE 325pm – If someone were to yell ‘Black Power’ or ‘Black Lives Matter’, you surely would not identify him as a racist. Yet when some old white guy responds to screaming TDS sufferers with ‘White Power’, then his skin color comes into play, and he’s immediately identified as a racist and white supremacist. It’s always good to review the leftwing logic behind such discrimination – could you humor us with your assessment?

    Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. Ladies and gentlemen, we have ourselves a winner.
    Those two paragraphs in quotes above is the bee’s knees. The plug in the volcano. What the late Pat Cadell brought to Trump was more important than any polling numbers. Pat uncovered that for the first time in America, people felt that they were leaving the next generation a country worse of that they inherited. It’s part of the pact that makes us Americans; leaving the country in better shape. As Don’s link says, “ I think we will see an increased number of parents realizing that their children will not do better than they did, and that is the antithesis of the American dreams”. That bodes for a foul populace.
    What Pat could not figure out late in the race was why there was no break towards Trump with 4 weeks to go, then three weeks. The anger was still there, the discouragement that our pact as Americans with the next generation had been broken and the country is going downhill. Wrong way. Well, it broke alright.
    That anger is still there. And Trump is still considered the outsider and will always be…unlike the other guy running for President.
    Leaving a country worse off than you found it is not a legacy most salt of the earth folks want hung on them.

    The dems are going to pay a price for going too far –
    This same survey also shows presumptive Democrat presidential nominee former Vice President Joe Biden slipping somewhat since the April survey, dropping two percent from 48 percent then down to 46 percent now. President Donald Trump, the incumbent Republican running for re-election, also dropped a percent from 42 in April down to 41 now. Despite both Trump and Biden slipping slightly, the margin between them has also shrunk from 6 percent then to just 5 percent now.
    The survey also oversampled Democrats, according to the local news outlet, meaning that Wolf and Biden both likely fare better in this poll than in reality.

    “Somehow sitting in the Oval Office, behind that beautiful Resolute Desk,” Trump said, indicating he thought it would be uncomfortable wearing a mask as he met with “presidents, prime ministers, dictators, kings, queens – I don’t know, somehow I don’t see it for myself.”
