Many people understand the COVID-19 fear and weaponization will continue until the political leftists promoting the narrative have exhausted its usefulness.  To support that opinion a Vanderbilt University medical director for the National Foundation for Infections Disease tells CBS news: “that it would be best to give up the idea of life going “back to normal,” and instead embrace a “new normal” where our lives revolve around COVID-19.”

(VIA CBS) “We’ve been told that this virus will disappear. But it will not,” Dr. William Schaffner, a professor at the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine and medical director of the National Foundation For Infectious Diseases, tells CBS News.

“We need to control it. We need to diminish its impact. But it’s going to be around hassling us for the foreseeable future. And by that I mean — years.”

[…] Schaffner says it would be best to give up the idea of going “back to normal,” and instead settle in for the “new normal” where COVID continues shaping our lives. (read more)

People would be wise not to dismiss these leftist ‘health experts’ as political narrative engineers in the healthcare field because they have a very specific purpose.  This is the ideological outlook that will fundamentally transform.  This is the justification for “vaccine passports’, control over travel, control over business operations and ultimately control over the lives of everyone.  COVID is a purposeful political tool and this has long been planned out.

CTH warned since last summer, 2020, about the ramifications if a leftist group using COVID-19 to expand federal power over peoples lives and livelihoods. On the day after his inauguration JoeBama’s team unleashed a series of TEN EXECUTIVE ORDERS fully weaponizing the opportunity.

The Minneapolis City Council has agreed to give the family of George Floyd $27 million in the largest settlement in the city’s history.  The massive civil settlement comes on the heels of congress passing a massive city and state bailout bill under the auspices of COVID.  [Statement from Ben Crump HERE]

It is not a stretch to see a situation where Minneapolis is paying out this $27 million settlement because they now have an influx of federal cash to support or replace it.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The city of Minneapolis on Friday agreed to pay $27 million to settle a civil lawsuit from George Floyd’s family over the Black man’s death in police custody, even as jury selection continued in a former officer’s murder trial.

The Minneapolis City Council emerged from closed session to announce the record settlement, which includes $500,000 for the neighborhood where Floyd was arrested. Floyd family attorney Ben Crump called a news conference for 1 p.m. that was to include family members.

Crump, in a prepared statement, said it was the largest pretrial civil rights settlement ever, and “sends a powerful message that Black lives do matter and police brutality against people of color must end.” (read more)

Half of New York’s democrats are now asking Governor Andrew Cuomo to resign following six women stepping forward with details of sexual harassment.  However, the New York governor, who is also guilty of killing thousands of elderly residents with his COVID nursing home rules, is defiant in his media statements today.

ALBANY, N.Y. — (AP) — As the Democratic Party turned sharply against New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and he faces growing allegations of sexual harassment, he insisted Friday he wouldn’t resign and castigated politicians calling for him to quit as “reckless and dangerous” and engaging in “cancel culture.”

The irony over the deployment of the national guard, fencing and barbed wire around the DC capitol exists because there never has been a “right-wing extremist”  insurrection effort in DC yet the Biden administration and Democrats use that false narrative as justification for Speaker Pelosi’s armed encampment.  The U.S. media are currently pushing that false narrative with every opportunity.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the nation in Portland Oregon, an actual “left-wing extremist” insurrection effort has been taking place for months; yet the national media ignore it and the Biden administration -together with Speaker Pelosi- pretend not to know about it.

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.

“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”

“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

~ Mike Vanderboegh

This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Massive lines of illegal immigrants can be seen in this video from yesterday awaiting smugglers to help them cross the Rio Grande river into the United States.  According to The Federalist [Article Here] the video was shot by “a law enforcement official whose agency and identity are hidden to protect from repercussions.”

FTA […] “The number of illegal border crossings is up 100 percent over this time last year, and at this rate apprehensions of illegal immigrants will surpass all of 2018, 2019, and 2020 combined. As of this writing, a record number of unaccompanied migrant teens are in federal custody, with hundreds more arriving every day.” (more)

This is too funny…. Does pResident Marbles, the guy who occupies a bedroom in the White House, actually believe people didn’t celebrate the July Fourth holiday last year?  Does he really think people are not gathering together right now for parties, celebrations and events?   What nonsense is pResident Marbles talking about?

Good grief, if the people around him have talked him into believing this reality, what the heck else does he believe?

The vast majority of individual Americans have moved beyond the big con job known as COVID-19.  The only remaining vestiges of it are held by organizations, institutions, corporate locales and government offices.  On an individual basis the American people are back to normal; it is only when we engage with an organization, institution, company or corporation that we have to adhere to dictates, rules and ridiculous requests.

There ain’t a person in my orbit, or any orbit of anyone I know, who is doing anything like what pResident Marbles is describing.  Yet somehow, somewhere in the rooms of advisors to the White House, there must be people who believe in Oz…  But we ain’t there, Toto.

Too funny.

He might not have lost all his marbles, but there’s a big hole in the bag….

Hennepin County Judge Peter Cahill reinstated third-degree murder charges against Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin on the third day of jury selection.  The trial now includes a set of charges against Chauvin more favorable to the prosecution who may not be able to prove second-degree murder and/or possibly second-degree manslaughter.

Meanwhile the political activists are using the opportunity of the trial to take control over a portion of the city where even the police will no longer patrol.  The leftists have created an autonomous zone, a no-go zone, near the site of the George Floyd memorial.  (Video Report Below):

MINNESOTA – […] Judge Peter Cahill on Thursday granted prosecutors’ motion to reinstate the third-degree murder charge, which would require a lower standard of proof than second-degree. In order to convict Chauvin of second-degree murder, prosecutors would need to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Chauvin caused Floyd’s death while committing or attempting to commit a related felony, in this case third-degree assault.

To win a conviction on third-degree murder, prosecutors would need to prove that Chauvin caused Floyd’s death in an act that is “eminently dangerous” to others. The additional count adds another option for jurors to consider as they weigh charges against Chauvin, which legal experts say is a benefit for prosecutors. (more)

Just like the cases of Trayvon Martin, Mike Brown, Freddie Grey, Eric Garner, Breonna Taylor and many more, the background political activists are attempting to manipulate public opinion to achieve their goals.  This has been the Marxist roadmap and racial division strategy for the past decade.  “Never Let A Crisis Go To Waste”
