[I’ve been writing about the contrary Covid counsels coming from science, with each political side finding plenty to support their respective positions on correct response policies.  Isn’t it a bitch now that the Europeans, held up by our Left as the paragons practicing proper pandemic public policies, are now also suffering the resurgence of Covid cases no matter how much they lockdown or not, distance or not, wear masks or not?  Brings out a chuckle or two when I note how the lamestream is trying to hide all this from their double dummies.  gjr]

    The fighters love the fighter and the guy with the great kick knockout is a black guy –
    Joaquin Buckley’s impressive knockout kick against Impa Kasanganay at UFC Fight Night 179 caught the eyes of President Trump, the fighter revealed Friday night.
    Buckley told TMZ Sports that UFC president Dana White called him about Trump being impressed with the finish. Buckley said he was flattered.
    “He’s the world leader at the end of the day. If anything, that’s good to have a person like that on your side,” Buckley told the gossip website.

    Here’s a basic question George
    Trump ran on the slogan to “Make America Great Again”. So now four years later is America “Great” yet? Is it even “greater” than it was in 2017 when Trump became President?

    So creepy grampa joe and his suggestions to blast a shotgun thru your front door if you are concerned we now have the cops saying shut the fuck up to creepy grampa joe-
    Law enforcement groups blasted Vice President Joe Biden for again suggesting training police to shoot suspects “in the leg” is a viable way to avoid fatalities, decrying the proposal as dangerous and ignorant.
    During an ABC News town hall Thursday, Biden gave the shooting advice while talking about broader police reforms, which have been on the public conscience since the killing of George Floyd sparked nationwide racial unrest.
    “There’s a lot of things we’ve learned and it takes time, but we can do this,” Biden said. “You can ban chokeholds … you have to teach people how to de-escalate circumstances. … Instead of anybody coming at you and the first thing you do is shoot to kill, you shoot them in the leg.”
    Police officers and law enforcement groups pounced on the suggestion that officers would train to shoot someone in the leg rather than “center mass,” the largest part of the body that has long been the firearms training target.
    John Evans, president of the Buffalo Police Benevolent Association, told Fox News that Biden’s suggestion is “absolutely ridiculous” and “incredibly ignorant.”
    “The guy’s clueless,” Evans said. “And I know he’s just trying to appease his left-wing base but it’s a really foolish statement.”
    POLICE GROUPS CRITICIZE BIDEN SUGGESTION THAT COPS BE TRAINED TO SHOOT KNIFE-WIELDING ATTACKERS ‘IN THE LEG’
    Joe Gamaldi, vice president of the national Fraternal Order of Police, dismissed Biden’s suggestion as “completely ridiculous, “unrealistic” and a “pandering talking point.”
    “Shootings are dynamic situations and we shoot to stop the threat,” Gamaldi told Fox News. “It’s incredibly difficult to hit a moving target.”
    The Fraternal Order of Police has endorsed President Trump.

    PaulE 407pm – Yep, just like they’ve supported it for the last 6-7 months. The mobs’ behaviors will be the same, only in the future there will be hundreds of thousands of communist thugs on the streets looting, burning, and killing. Remember that Bernie, AOC, the Squad, BLM, Antifa, et al will consider Biden’s victory the beginning of their finest hour – it’s then or never. Given that they didn’t do diddly-shit since spring, what do you think the DNC will do then when they really feel empowered?

    Today it’s, “Here’s a basic question George”, last week it was “This is the core question George….!” Next week I’m sure Punch will have another, “clearly George the most important question is…..”, for the board.
    I do so enjoy it when Punch dons his cape & tights and pretends to be “Serious Political Analyst Man”!

    Exactly how did the Chinese go from leading the league in the number of virus deaths early in the year to being out of the top 25 countries now? And I’m still waiting for an accurate report detailing how many Chinese really died from the Wuhan virus.
    Natural immunity finally developed? Secret vaccine given out? Draconian shut-down procedures enforced?
    And who (not WHO) is going to hold them accountable, at least monetarily?

    Nate Silver sums things up on the election as of today
    “President Trump is running out of time. Joe Biden leads by double digits in national polls, and state-level polling is only slightly closer. In fact, Biden’s lead is so large, traditionally red states like Georgia, Iowa, Ohio and Texas might now go blue. We’ve still got a little over two weeks to go before Election Day, and Trump needs the race to tighten during that time — we’re way past normal polling error territory for Trump to close the gap. Still, Trump has a meaningful chance per our forecast — a little worse than the chances of rolling a 1 on a six-sided die and a little better than the chances that it’s raining in downtown Los Angeles. “
