Coronavirus Makes Borders Popular — Even in Mexico!

The coronavirus event that the media has made its top story certainly has people wound up. Example numero uno from down south: Mexicans are demanding more border controls to keep out possibly infectious Americans — who could have imagined such a thing?

It’s certainly true that the Mexican Presidente Lopez Obrador has maintained a strangely […]

Mexico Is Not Ready for Any Public Health Crisis

There is one good aspect to the coronavirus event, and that is the rediscovery of borders: they are so handy in keeping out people who might cause the preventable deaths of Americans from disease.

Unfortunately we face the Third World to our south and the border there is inadequate.

Perhaps worse is the cavalier attitude […]

Senator Tom Cotton: America Must Re-evaluate Its Relationship with China

Unlike Russia, Red China actually represents a long term threat to America. It’s bad enough that the Chinese have been stealing American technology for years, but now we are learning of their malfeasance in the current coronavirus event.

Curiously, the disease first showed up near China’s leading bioresearch lab which is located in Wuhan, followed […]

New York Times Notes Chinese “Chokehold” on Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

It’s fascinating the news that comes out during times of media excitement, and the coronavirus situation is certainly one.

Many Americans have known about the Made in (Red) China problem in production generally, but pharmaceuticals, maybe not so much.

Interestingly, Chinese economist Li Daokui suggested last year that medicine could be used as a […]

Rush Limbaugh Recalls the 2009 Swine Flu with 300K Hospitalized as a Media Non-Event

Among the “right-wing pundits” the New York Times has criticized for not believing the liberal coronavirus narrative, Rush Limbaugh has been particularly outspoken. In fact, he was downright fired up on Thursday, or as he remarked, “I’m not panicked. I am ticked off like you cannot believe.”

Rasmussen Poll Reports Republican Suspicion about Whether Coronavirus Is a Media Concoction

A March 5 posting on the Rasmussen Reports website headlined 60% of Republicans See Coronavirus Scare As Tool to Get Trump.

It seems there is a belief on the right that “the media and some politicians are playing up the threat of coronavirus to hurt President Trump.”

Wherever would these citizens get such an idea?

Coronavirus Reminds the Planet that Borders Are a Great Idea

As the coronavirus spreads around the world, we should notice how the openness of travel has been facilitated the spread of the illness. Borders are our friends when contagion is on the loose — even though the current panic is largely an overblown media concoction, according to Dr. Drew Pinsky.

But the next communicable disease […]

Senator Cotton Calls for Stop to Air Travel from Red China for Duration of Coronavirus

Here’s some common sense about what’s important on the world scene. As Tucker Carlson and Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) agreed, the worsening coronavirus outbreak looks to be more worthy of media coverage that the snooze-worthy lawyer-fest on TV, aka the Trump Impeachment Trial, where the Not Guilty outcome is highly likely in the Republican-majority Senate.

Foreign Kiddies Survive Chicken Pox — No Thanks to Meanie America!

Illegal alien sob stories in the news media certainly are undergoing a renaissance under the porous borders permitted by the Trump administration. One frequently see emotive front page articles in the press with photos of cutesy and/or suffering kiddies to appeal to readers’ sympathy.

One such appeared Tuesday in the San Diego Union-Tribune, complete with […]

Will Expanding Ebola Reach America through the Open Border?

On Wednesday, the World Health Organization announced that Ebola is now an international health emergency.

Thursday’s Sacramento Bee headlined the story on its front page with a rather frightening photo of a victim being buried by people totally swathed in protective clothing because Ebola is very contagious via bodily fluids:

It’s serious stuff, the […]

Tammy Bruce Warns of the Current Threat to Public Health

Tammy Bruce brought the disregarded issue of public health regarding the border crisis to the Tucker Carlson show on Wednesday, noting that aliens are not screened for contagious illness.

The current open border brings disease which endangers the people of the United States: some, like measles had been eradicated, and others, like Zika and […]

Dr. Drew Warns of Plague Danger in Los Angeles

There have been several news reports in the last couple days about the disease danger caused by Los Angeles’ extreme homelessness. They may have been prompted in part by a truly alarming report from Dr. Drew Pinksky on the Laura Ingraham show last week.

Dr. Drew is very concerned about the dire public health […]
