Miami Herald goes out to pitch for the Socialist Government of Ecuador.
“Who are you going to believe? Me or your lying eyes?”
What is sad is that what the Herald is doing is openly supporting the persecution of civilians who dared show the chaos in Guayaquil. The government of Socialist Lenin Moreno announces what their intentions really are:
Ecuador officials believe they’re being attacked by a well organized group intent on toppling the administration.
“We’re working with our intelligence services to follow these clues,” Arroba told the Miami Herald. “But there seems to be a clear goal of destabilizing the government.”
Which is the usual excuse from these Latin socialist countries when shit gets out of hand. Hell, Chavez “revealed” a new coup attempt every six months like clockwork when he was alive.
The country has seen 3,646 cases and 339 deaths. That’s more coronavirus cases than any other Latin American nation but Brazil and Chile.
I went to check the John Hopkins database and they are still showing this slide:
You know what? Elections have consequences. Nothing changes down there in South America. The truth is buried as deep as they can bury the bodies and you best forget or you will end up in the next grave over.

A man wearing a medical face mask was caught on camera sucker-punching an NYPD officer in the Bronx Tuesday night as the cop’s partner was subduing a robbery suspect.
Nelson Jimenez, 31, launched his attack in front of a crowd of bystanders who had gathered on a sidewalk near 183rd Street and Davidson Avenue in University Heights to watch the arrest of 27-year-old robbery suspect Yoemdy Castro, law enforcement sources said.
Yes, the Cop Punching Cheering Section should be allowed to take care of themselves and deal with the criminals till this virus thing is over. Why should NYPD officers should risk life. lungs and limb for the assholes of their city who wants them dead?
Go back to your precincts and tell 911 that the force is on vacation till sometime June. And as a bonus, give them the direct phone number of Mayor DeBlasio so they can lodge the complaints with him.
Evil Pro-Trump Doctor does Mengele stuff on old folks.
J. Kb. sent me this one from The Texas Tribune.
More than two dozen Texas City nursing home residents who have tested positive for the new coronavirus are being treated with hydroxychloroquine, an anti-malarial drug that President Donald Trump has touted as a possible treatment for COVID-19, even as medical experts urge caution because it has yet to be vetted for that purpose through robust clinical trials.
So far, accurate.
The doctor who prescribed it to 27 residents of The Resort at Texas City was Robin Armstrong, the nursing home’s medical director and a prominent GOP activist who serves as a surrogate for the Trump campaign. The drug’s efficacy is being tested at the nursing home, where more than 80 residents and workers have tested positive for the new coronavirus, as its role in treating COVID-19 patients is debated across the country.
Here is where we starting to see a bit of word play. Mentioning that the doctor is a “GOP activist” and “surrogate” tries to give the image of negativity and doing it for the wrong political reasons rather than for medical reasons.
The federal government has approved it on an emergency basis in some COVID-19 cases, though medical experts — including some inside the Trump administration — have been far less willing to embrace its widespread use.
IT MIGHT BE DANGEROUS! EXPERTS SAY SO! WHY IS TRUMP DOCTOR PLAYING WITH THE LIFE OF GRANDMA?
Armstrong, who said his politics have nothing to do with his practice as a physician, acknowledged that there has not been robust clinical testing of the drug for this purpose but said he is very familiar with the medication and the risks and benefits it carries. The disease’s mortality rate is higher among elderly coronavirus patients, he said, so he wanted to try something proactive to help them heal — to “treat folks like I would my mom,” he said in an interview Monday evening.
“He said? Ha! We don’t believe him, you know he is lying!” I man, experts have been warning us. What experts? Well, they do appear a lot in certain News Channels and shows, so they must really know their shit, right?
“It’s a vulnerable population — it’s certainly a judgment call,” he said. “It’s responsible if you monitor them properly, and that’s certainly what we’re doing.”
Many of the patients began the five-day course of treatment Saturday, and all are still at the nursing home.
Wait, what? They have been in treatment for 2 full days when this hit piece was published and they did not die? But we were told the treatment was deadly! We are talking almost Ziklon B stuff.
Next, they finally remmeber to add this bit of GOP information about the doctor”
Armstrong, who serves on the advisory board of the Black Voices for Trump coalition, is one of Texas’ two Republican National Committee members.
Oh yes, the good doctor happens to be black, one of those evil traitors who are not living happily in the Democratic Plantation.
The article has no photos of the doctor, but I found this one over the Houston Chronicle.
I did a bit more digging on The Resort at Texas City, the facility where Dr. Armstrong works and I found this sad story.
TEXAS CITY, Texas — (NOTE: the video attached to this article is from Friday, April 3, 2020, before Smith passed away.)
Sam Quinn rushed to see his mother Friday morning after staff at the Resort at Texas City had called Sam’s sister to inform her that she appeared to be dying.
Quinn said he wore a face mask in the facility and spent five hours with his mother, 87-year-old Peggy Smith, not knowing about that the outbreak of COVID-19 patients in the nursing home had reached 83 people, both residents and employees.
When Quinn eventually left, an employee ran after him to tell him that she had tested positive. He learned the news in the parking lot.
Quinn said his mother, who had Alzheimer’s disease, died on Saturday morning. He was concerned there might already be COVID-19 at the home.
The article goes on to say the facility may have been infected by a part time worker also laboring in other places and may have brought the virus in. I am not saying the death of Peggy Smith made Dr. Armstrong decided to start treating other infected residents the same day as the death, but I would not be surprised if it did. And I also predict we won’t hear anymore about this location of the good doctor if no more people die.
If you think about it, there is one more sad and sick reason Democrats are opposing anything that would save the lives of infected patients. The most likely target for death is over 65, with previous serious medical conditions, right? Corona virus is Nature’s own Death Panel. Obamacare writ pandemic.
