Freedom Of Speech Attacked

      Comments Off on Freedom Of Speech Attacked

A previous post reviewed the attack on the free exercise of religion that one dictatorial mayor in Greenville, Mississippi engaged in.  Of course, he is not the only tinpot dictator that has emerged in America during this COVID-19 event.  Multiple other government officials at different levels have engaged in similar attempts to interfere with the exercising of an American’s freedom of religion.  Would-be dictators have been coming out of the woodwork across the country.

Free Exercise Of Religion Attacked

Fundamental liberties do not end because there is a pandemic.  Individual rights in our Constitution do not disappear during a public health crisis.  This does not mean that quarantine cannot be imposed if someone has been exposed to a highly communicable and/or deadly disease.  However, measures taken need to be even-handed.  A government entity is not permitted to discriminate against one group while allowing another group to engage in the same or similar activity.  There can be no disparate treatment.

Last week Greenville, Mississippi mayor Errick Simmons, a Democrat, and the city council banned churches from hosting drive-in services.

“The City of Greenville put in place an Executive Order that orders all church buildings closed for in person and drive-in church services, until the State of Mississippi’s Shelter In Place Executive Order No. 1466 is lifted by Governor Tate Reeves. Churches are strongly encouraged to hold services via Facebook Live, Zoom, Free Conference Call, and any and all other social media, streaming, and telephonic platforms,” the order read.

The governor’s order (EO 1466) recommended that church services not be in person but, he did not prohibit drive-in services.  “Mississippi is not China, and it never will be,” Reeves insisted.

Counting COVID-19 Deaths

Something strange is going on.  While the number of deaths from COVID-19 are screamed at us every day from the talking bobbleheads in the media, the number of deaths from heart attacks and strokes have plummeted.  This makes no sense.  If anything, given the anxiety and stress of this crisis, we should be seeing more heart attacks not less.  The same can be said for strokes.

Blatant Lies

The entire Russian collusion debacle was played out to the max even though every person in the media, every Democratic politician and even Robert Mueller knew there was no evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. This has now been attested to by AG Bill Barr last week, who said that the initiation of the investigation known as Crossfire Hurricane was “without any basis.”  But the lie was carried forward for over two years.  The absolute derangement of those on the left is unprecedented.

This derangement was visible with the subsequent faux impeachment over a legitimate investigation into the money laundering that was going on in Ukraine.  Ukraine is another example of how there is one set of laws for those elite members of the Left while there is a different set of laws for the common people.

Conspiracy Hints!

In what is clearly a shot across the bow of those who conspired to overthrow the President, AG Barr announced on Thursday on Laura Ingraham’s show that the Russia investigation that shadowed President Donald Trump for the first two years of his administration was started without any basis and amounted to an effort to “sabotage the presidency.”

Democrats Hate Small Business Owners

The Paycheck Protection Program is an SBA loan that helps small businesses keep their workforce employed during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis.  It is a loan designed to provide a direct incentive for businesses to keep their workers on the payroll.  SBA will forgive loans if all employees are kept on the payroll for eight weeks and the money is used for payroll, rent, mortgage interest, or utilities.  At least 75% of the money must be used for salaries.

Loan application processing began April 3rd.  Despite some initial confusion and some capacity issues within the SBA network, the program has been processing applications at a phenomenal rate.  Over $75 billion was submitted for approval in the first three business days the program was in operation.

Special Counsel Fiasco Prosecution Ended

For those who may have forgotten, in February, 2018, Special Counsel Robert Mueller brought a dramatic indictment against Russian actors allegedly responsible for interference in the 2016 presidential election. The indictment was made at a national press conference.  The Department of Justice posted the indictment online here.  The indictment charged three Russian companies and 13 Russian individuals with election related crimes.
