List of S&P 500 companies Read the list and you may see companies in which you yourself have $500 to $1500, including companies that MSNBCNN find reprehensible. Maybe even funds Jim Acosta, Don Lemon and Mr. and Mrs. Morning Joe  have a mutual fund stake in. Imagine Donald Trump lusting for a 500-1500 dollar investment! That might just be enough to buy a new faucet handle for the Trump mansion. TD

Donald Trump Has Stake In Hydroxychloroquine Drugmaker: Report

"The president has repeatedly touted the anti-malaria drug as a coronavirus treatment despite a lack of medical evidence."

The story begins with these statements:
"President Donald Trump reportedly owns a stake in a company that produces hydroxychloroquine, the anti-malaria drug he has repeatedly touted as a coronavirus treatment even though his experts say there’s no strong evidence it works. 
"Trump “has a small personal financial interest” in Sanofi, the French drugmaker that makes Plaquenil, the brand-name version of hydroxychloroquine, The New York Times reported Monday.
"In addition, Sanofi’s largest shareholders include a mutual fund company run by major Republican donor Ken Fisher, the paper said. Trump’s three family trusts, as of last year, each had investments in a mutual fund whose largest holding was Sanofi, according to the Times. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross also had ties to the drugmaker, the Times reported." . . .
Then read on down to the finish and learn this:
. . . "The financial news site MarketWatch and The Washington Post later estimated Trump’s stake to be worth between about $100 and $1,500, though the Post noted his trusts may have amassed other investments since his most recent disclosure. “He does look to have more than that modest sum invested in Sanofi, because, unmentioned in the Times report, his trusts also hold broader European stock-market index funds,” MarketWatch pointed out." . . .
. . . "John Dillard, a spokesperson for Fisher Investments, called the Times article a “false report” and said Sanofi “is neither a material holding of Fisher Investments nor of Ken Fisher personally.” He also took issue with the characterization of his boss as a Republican donor, saying Fisher also had contributed to Democrats in the past."

So simple: just ban coronavirus

The Babylon Bee reports: Governor Newsom Declares California A Coronavirus-Free Zone 

 SACRAMENTO, CA—Governor Newsom has declared California a coronavirus-free zone, instantly eradicating any threat of coronavirus infecting anyone in the state.The executive action makes any possession of coronavirus a state felony."When you declare something illegal, it is instantly gone forever," Newsom said solemnly. "That's why I'm taking immediate executive action to declare the possession of coronavirus a felony at the state level. Top scientists all agree that the best way to get rid of something is to ban it."
"That oughtta do it."
Anyone caught possessing the banned virus will be subject to prosecution. The state is also setting up bins throughout major cities where Californians can turn in their now-illegal coronaviruses to be melted down and destroyed.
After learning that the virus infects humans, Newsom also banned all humans from the state of California. Luckily, the politicians in Sacramento were not affected.

US media parrot Chinese propaganda, talk of censoring White House briefings

Washington Examiner  "Why do members of the free press keep parroting Chinese agitprop, including the preposterous and totally unverified claim that China has had not a single new coronavirus death since January?

“ 'U.S. reports 1,264 coronavirus deaths in over 24 hours,” NBC News recited this week. “Meanwhile in China, where the pandemic broke out, not a single new coronavirus death was reported.”

"Chinese officials concede they have new infection cases, but they also allege those cases were imported into China by dirty foreigners. This is the level on which the Chinese Communist Party has long operated — a sort of ultranationalism that seeks to blame outsiders for its nation's problems. Yet our media are accepting its dubious (even just from a math perspective) claims at face value.

"Let me put this in terms that American journalists might understand, were they not so bound up in irrational hatred of the Trump administration: Is it possible, just maybe, that the timing of China's supposed good news is not coincidental to the fact that it recently expelled a bunch of U.S. reporters?

“ 'Health officials reported 32 new confirmed cases of the coronavirus in mainland China on Monday, all of them imported, bringing the total to 81,740,” the NBC article continues. “The former epicenter of the epidemic, Wuhan, reported only two new confirmed cases in the past 14 days.”

"Now seems like a good time to remind everyone that the regime that claims now to have had no new coronavirus deaths since January is the same regime that claims only 200 civilians and security personnel died in the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre. (The actual number may be as high as 10,000.)" . . .

Wuhan Derangement Syndrome  . . . "Tuck made a huge deal out of the fact that there are no horseshoe bats within 900km of Wuhan. But guess what? There are no SARS-carrying bats within one thousand kilometers of the wet markets where the SARS outbreak started (the SARS-carrying bat colonies are in Yunnan province; the spillover to humans happened in Guangdong). As I said, bat proximity is irrelevant, because the intermediary animals were brought to the wet markets from elsewhere. The wet markets deal in exotic animals. Don’t breeze by that sentence. Slow down and repeat the word exotic. Sound it out and think. What does that word mean? It means not from there." . . .

Is this the best a free press has to offer?

Liberals Backwards Think

He has a reputation for making it all about himself   "Jim Acosta is a household name. Some of his critics believe that's by design. "As is his habit, Acosta doesn't ask questions — he makes accusations and argues," the New York Post said of the CNN journalist. Writing about Acosta's confrontation with Sarah Sanders over Trump's "enemy of the people" claim, The Atlantic said the journalist "reinforced the corrosive, cynical, and deeply dangerous feedback loop that has convinced Trump's most fervent supporters that his relentless brief against the press has merit." Even his fellow reporters at the press conference appeared to understand this. "Those watching the exchange on television would have noticed the faces of Mr. Acosta's fellow correspondents," The New York Times reported, "some watching with curiosity and others averting their gaze."
"Infamous for his out of control shouting and "grandstanding" during televised press briefings and other White House events, Acosta even had to address and defend this fact on CNN with an appearance on Reliable Sources. "If they want to send me to hell, I'll still be shouting at the devil," he said."   . . .

Back in March, 2020:

From the same link as above: Sometimes Acosta is useful; he even took on Obama and Castro   . . . "A lot of Americans have this frustration that they see the United States has the greatest military in the world; it has the backing of nearly every other country in the world when it comes to taking on ISIS. I guess the question is, and if you'll forgive the language, but why can't we take out these bastards?" he asked. Obama, clearly frustrated, replied, "Well Jim, I just spent the last three questions answering that very question, so I don't know what more you want me to add."

"During a joint press conference between Obama and Cuban President Raúl Castro in 2016, Acosta (whose father fled Cuba) pressed Castro on his country's practice of taking political prisoners. Per Politico, Acosta addressed the leader in Spanish. Castro reportedly smirked "at Acosta's pronunciation" and acted as though the question wasn't meant for him. That reportedly prompted Obama to look at Castro in "disbelief" and say, "Excuse me ... second one was to you."  . . . Nicki Swift

Look what your publicized personality disorders can do for you!

And a big ego; here is the Jim Acosta of sports:

Even the snarky Babylon Bee saw opportunity in MSNBCNN:  

CNN Report: Millions Of American Voters May Have Colluded To Elect Trump  U.S.—A new, exclusive CNN investigative report revealed Thursday that millions of American voters may have potentially colluded with the Trump campaign to elect Donald Trump as President of the United States.
"While Russia has been accused of interfering in the election, the breaking report indicates that the collusion may have extended to a significant portion of the U.S. population—“as many as 60 million citizens, and possibly even more.”
"“The conspiracy goes much deeper than anyone expected,” Jake Tapper said on his news segment The Politics Lead. “We’re talking tens of millions of people involved in this secret plot to make sure Hillary didn’t make it into the White House and to prop up Donald Trump as the winner.”
"The CNN report does not accuse anyone of hacking or rigging the vote, but rather suggests that those colluding with the real estate mogul in the far-reaching scheme may have simply walked into voting booths and cast their vote for Donald Trump, giving him the electoral college victory."

CNN's Jim Acosta blasted for interrupting Dr. Birx to attack Trump

Another Trump-hater with an ego to match that of Megan Rapinoe, the purple-haired flag-dragger of women's soccer

http://www.terrellaftermath.com/

CNN's Jim Acosta blasted for 'mansplaining' after interrupting Dr. Birx to attack Trump  . . . "Many took to social media to blast the reporter.
"Jim Acosta's interruption of Dr. Birx is an example of how CNN's echo-journalism model is destroying the media's credibility," George Washington University Law professor Jonathan Turley reacted. "Every question from Acosta is an effort to score points rather than elicit information. It is a press pandemic that continues to rage without relief." . . .
. . . "CNN did not immediately respond to Fox News' request for comment.
"Acosta has made a name for himself in the Trump era for his hostile exchanges with the president.
"However, he is even criticized among his White House press corps colleagues. In his new book, ABC News correspondent Jonathan Karl knocked his CNN counterpart, accusing him of "playing into the explicit Trump strategy of portraying the press as the opposition party."
" 'The surest way to undermine the credibility of the White House press corps is to behave like the political opposition," Karl wrote. "Don't give speeches from the White House briefing room.' " . . .

Note to the Trump-hating media: Just shut up and say, 'Thank you'   . . . "Despite these advances on so many fronts, there are always several journalists in the crowd who come loaded only with gotcha questions.  Does your son-in-law know what he's doing?  Shouldn't you have reacted to this earlier?  It's the same questions, from the same folks, day after day.

"If he were more eloquent, he might drive home the point that New York is woefully short of ventilators because it chose to spend the state and city treasuries on other matters." . . .. . . "Perhaps I missed it, but not one of these highly paid gatherers of facts asked the governors of New York and Michigan why they had sharply limited the use of hydroxychloroquine or failed to stock sufficient quantities of ventilators." . . .

2019: A current CNN employee is shredding pseudo-journalist Jim Acosta just as the reporter’s forthcoming new book makes clear his anti-Trump bias. 

The second takeaway is how an employee of the very network Acosta works for told Fox News that insiders are pretty much embarrassed by Acosta.Shredding Private Acosta. The CNN employee stated that while Acosta is asking important questions, he tends to “grandstand” and make everything about himself. That’s the exact opposite organizations want from a reporter assigned to the White House.

2018: Jim Acosta Gets Bad News After What Cameras Caught Him Doing On D.C. Street  . . . "Perhaps the worst offender known to the American people right now is CNN’s Chief White House Correspondent Jim Acosta. Not only is he the biggest whiner ever to hold a seat in the White House press briefing room, but he’s also made it his personal mission to make President Donald Trump look bad in any way possible — even if that means spreading falsehoods.
"Too bad for Acosta, the American people are just about fed up with his nonsense. Proving just that, a citizen journalist recently approached him on the streets, but things probably didn’t go how he was expecting. In fact, the moment Acosta noticed that things were going sideways, he bolted, only for the other reporter to later notice that he was visibly furious.

"According to the video on her Twitter account, Laura Loomer approached Acosta and started off the exchange with a seemingly harmless question. However, with his guard was down, she hit him right between the eyes with the thing he hates most — being called fake news to his face." . . .

Schiff Explodes After Trump Fires Intelligence IG Who Told Congress Of Ukraine Call

News Thud

"House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff reacted to President Donald Trump’s firing of Michael Atkinson, the inspector general for the U.S. intelligence community who raised concerns with Congress about Trump’s phone call with Ukraine which led to his impeachment.
"In a letter dated Friday, Trump formally notified the intelligence committees of both the Senate and House.
"Schiff tweet posts Trump’s letter saying his actions “puts our country and national security at even greater risk.”
"“This is to advise that I am exercising my power as President to remove from office the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community, effective 30 days from today,” the president wrote.
"“It is extremely important that we promote the economy, efficiency, and the effectiveness of Federal programs and activities.”
"“The Inspectors General have a critical role in the achievement of these goals,” the president continued." . . .

Home Depot Co-Founder Tells Maria: ‘Congress Should’ve Been Investigating Pandemic, Not Impeaching Trump’

News Thud

"Home Depot co-founder Bernie Marcus went on Fox Business Network’s “Mornings with Maria,” today and shamed the hysterics on the left side of the political aisle.
"He said the Democrats should have been investigating the outbreak in China and making preparations rather than waste the time for the fool’s errand of impeaching Trump.
"He also took a veiled shot at Adam Schiff who is already salivating over the investigations he plans to launch.
"“I think that look this president has been hit with something that no president has ever had to deal with. I just resent the people that are going after him now. They are already talking about another impeachment. I hate to tell you that, that Adam Schiff is already investigating this,” Bernie said.
"Bartiromo: “You are hitting on something that is really important because, for three years, Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff were looking for ghosts of Russia collusion. In doing so in terms of getting the country all crazy over the potential of collusion between the president and the Russians, they completely missed the bigger, much more dangerous actor, and that is China.' ” . . .

Is the bad and self-negating behavior of so many of Trump’s enemies setting him up for an even more impressive victory in the fall?

Victor Davis Hanson  "As the coronavirus outbreak begins to reach its zenith, it remains unclear whether the measures taken to stem its tide will prove sufficient, insufficient, or an overreaction. What is certain, however, is that a number of individuals and entities have behaved shamefully and demonstrated no capacity for leadership or usefulness in this moment.

"Nancy Pelosi: Gone are the mythologies that Nancy Pelosi was a pragmatic liberal voice of reason among the otherwise polarizing American Left, honed after years of paying her dues to the Democratic Party, as the mother of five dutifully ascended the party’s cursus honorum.
"It does not matter whether her political and ethical decline was a result of her deep pathological hatred of Donald Trump. Who cares that her paranoia arose over the so-called “Squad” that might align with socialist Bernie Sanders to mesmerize Democrats to march over the cliff into McGovern-like oblivion? All concede that very few octogenarians have the stamina and clarity to put in the 16-hour work-days and transcontinental travel required by a Speaker of the House.
"Instead, all that matters is that for a nation in extremis she is now puerile, even unhinged—and increasingly dangerous." . . .

The sad state of what is called "journalism"

People in enemy-controlled Europe couldn't trust news sources there; they had to smuggle radios in to hear the BBC and Voice of America. But, unlike now, people knew who the enemy press was. TD

Study: While CNN Bashes Trump, They Barely Covered Virus Outbreak  "CNN’s latest Trump-bashing narrative is something to the tune of: Everyone knew the coronavirus was a serious problem in January, and everyone was taking it immensely seriously except for President Trump and his incompetent administration. Yet a Media Research Center analysis finds CNN’s own coverage of the virus in January and early February was incredibly deficient, as the liberal cable network was reluctant to devote much time to anything unrelated to Trump’s impeachment." . . .

"It’s obvious CNN was too obsessed with impeachment to waste time on the outbreak in its early stages. The network relegated nearly all of its early coronavirus coverage to small news briefs, which generally were squeezed into the last few minutes of any show that bothered to cover it.

"Now that it’s become a massive crisis, CNN has taken every opportunity to pan the President’s supposed lack of seriousness at the beginning of the outbreak. Their hammering of this narrative is ironic, considering they were too engrossed in promoting the Democrats’ impeachment agenda in January to give this story the attention it deserved."

American media keep repeating China's coronavirus talking points  "It should not be this easy for Chinese Communist Party propaganda to make its way into major American newsrooms." . . .

Reporters Without Masks Grill Trump About Not Wearing a Mask

Brzezinski on Trump Pushing Hydroxychloroquine: ‘There’s Got to Be Some Sort of Financial Tie’  "Journalism" has devolved into rumor-gossip klatches. 

One comment to this post: 

For her to be so juvenile and petty during a time of crisis like this only hurts her credibility with the viewers. Even most regular Democrats that I talk to admit that Trump is handling this situation well. Maybe they'll finally open their eyes to the bias of the MSM.

The most useful phrase ever: "This, too shall pass"

Don Sucher  . . . "And then there is that ever-present fear. Fear for loved ones. Fear for our own selves and our futures as we expected them to unfold. Fears for society as a whole. A society that is changing before our eyes -- and with that, the possibly greater fear that the society which we loved, or at least in which we felt comfortably secure, may never return.

Wars, pestilence and famine have always brought these things; have always been a part of the human experience -- just as much as has been heat and cold and damp.

"But just as modern life has to a large degree shielded most of us from the effects of those things - that heat and cold and damp -- so most of us have to a remarkable degree been shielded, not only from the direct threat of wars, pestilences and famines, but even from the idea that such could be our lot.

"This morning missive shall not end with The Answer, for no such singular "answer" exists. But it does end with an admonition: That each of us -- you, me, our families, our neighbors, our communities our states, and our nation -- should work to make the best of these current realities. To learn from them. To equally be willing to lead and to follow. To put forth ideas, yes, but not to sneer at the ideas of others. To realize that while each of our lives is important -- central to us as living beings -- that there is also an overall "good" that must be kept keenly in mind. To realize and accept that the weak will now require extra help, and that those who are strong will have to use that strength - and possibly allow some of it to be stripped away -- for our common survival." . . .

All will pass, I suppose, except for Hollywood and media liberals. OK Go even made a video proclaiming this:

Anti-Trump School Assignment: “Republicans are using misleading names for the coronavirus that hurt Asian Americans”

Todd Starnes  . . . "The lesson focused on a story written by the Texas Tribune titled, “Asian Americans say some politicians stoking stigma with coronavirus.”
"Attached to the story was a quiz that included blatant anti-Trump and anti-Republican statements.
“ 'Read the following claim,” the lesson stated. “Republican leaders have used insensitive language based on unfounded rumors when referring to the coronavirus. Which sentence from the article provides the BEST support for the above statement?”

"Among the choices:

"His comment referenced a now-debunked myth that the outbreak began after a woman in China ate bat soup.

"Coryn later said that he meant to say that the Chinese government was to blame, not Chinese people or Chinese culture.Yet experts say that this kind of language encourages people to view the disease in simplistic geographic or racial terms.

"When the Ebola outbreak emerged in 2014, Africans were the primary target of bias.

Laney told me she could not believe the school would assign eighth graders such a politically-charged lesson.

“I was speechless and completely appalled that the school system would allow this kind of garbage to be brainwashed into our kids,” she said.

"She told me she called the school superintendent in Putnam County and was assured the lesson would be removed and the teacher would be spoken to." . . .
