Hillary Clinton's attempt to politicize coronavirus to mock President Trump ends terribly - TheBlaze
Hillary Clinton triggered an avalanche of backlash on Friday after she politicized the coronavirus outbreak to mock President Donald Trump.
She lied!-----Whitmer won't name vendors she said were told to divert medical supplies from Michigan
Whitmer won't name vendors she said were told to divert medical supplies from Michigan
"The Democratic governor's suggestion Friday that the Trump administration was actively blocking the flow of medical supplies to Michigan hospitals drew criticism from Republicans after the governor's office did not put forward any supporting evidence of her claim.
"I think people are trying to make this into a different story than what it is," Whitmer said Sunday on CNN.

"I think people are trying to make this into a different story than what it is," Whitmer said Sunday on CNN.
Late Saturday night, GOP state Reps. Annette Glenn of Midland and Mary Whiteford of South Haven sent Whitmer a letter asking that her office disclose "names of individual vendors with whom you or members of your staff have spoken, names of their companies, gubernatorial or agency phone logs, e-mails, etc. — so that we can immediately join you in taking quick action to remove any and all roadblocks."
"What you allege, governor, cannot be allowed to stand or continue," Glenn and Whiteford wrote..."

Here Are The Pro-Life Protections In The $2 Trillion Coronavirus Emergency Relief Package | The Daily Caller
Here Are The Pro-Life Protections In The $2 Trillion Coronavirus Emergency Relief Package | The Daily Caller:
Senate Republicans won several pro-life protections in the CARES Act that ensured federal funding will not be used to pay for abortions. These protections include disqualifying Planned Parenthood from receiving aid, ensuring that health care spending in the bill is covered by Hyde Amendment protections, and extending the Sexual Risk Avoidance Education Program — a program that teaches abstinence until marriage.
“Republicans won critical pro-life protections in this relief package, despite a last-minute attempt by Democrats to make Planned Parenthood eligible for disaster-relief funding,” Sen. Tom Cotton told the Daily Caller News Foundation on Friday.

THEY WANT A STAMPEDE: Distortion and fear...
THEY WANT A STAMPEDE:
- The US is nowhere near having the highest number of cases per capita.
Look at the cases per million numbers here, and you’ll see that the US has one of the world’s lowest rates (at the moment, anyway), not the highest at all. (currently 21st in the world)
That will change and go up, of course, as testing continues.
But it’s the more important statistic than sheer number of cases, although neither tells us very much right now.
- Then there’s deaths per million.

"WATCH: On Joy Reid's MSNBC show, she warned that President Trump might be planning to "expand his power under the guise of national security" to achieve the goal he has always had.
Joy Reid fretted, "Of course, it's hardly news that Trump has always had designs on reigning as a monarch with unlimited power, rather than serving as a mere president in a democracy. But with the country facing an unprecedented public health crisis, what lengths might he, backed by an Attorney General whose writings and actions point to a fundamental belief in an all-powerful presidency-at least when the would-be king is a Republican-what lengths might Trump go to, to expand his power under the guise of national security?"...

UC tells students ‘do not’ say ‘Chinese Virus' and 'do not allow' others to say it either
- The University of California system has issued a set of guidelines directing students and employees how to speak about the coronavirus from Wuhan, China.
- The document directly tells students what names they should use for the virus.
One student responded by pointing out that “The Chinese government has actively contributed to the spread of this deadly virus."
The Council of Chief Diversity Officers at the University of California released a “guidance document” to announce “supportive positive and inclusive campus climates during the COVID-19 crisis.”
The list begins by telling students to “reject racism, sexism, xenophobia and all hateful or intolerant speech, both in person and online,” and to “Be an ‘up-stander,’ and discourage others from engaging in such behavior.”
“Do not use terms such as ‘Chinese Virus’ or other terms which cast either intentional or unintentional projections of hatred toward Asian communities, and do not allow the use of these terms by others,”...
