To review past posts on this insanity and idiocy, just click on the first few posts in each month listed to the right of this page. After reviewing just a handful of these insanity posts we think you will agree that we are currently being served by the worst set of American politicians ever to hold office in our entire history.
1) It should come as no surprise to readers of this blog that we have very little respect for the abilities or humanity of New York Governor, Andrew Cuomo. First, he forced unprepared nursing homes in the state to take in elderly covid patients and mingle them with healthy elderly nursing home patients that resulted in thousands of unnecessary deaths.
He then under counted the number of fatalities that occurred in New York nursing homes to make himself look better than his performance. Finally, despite a ten month advanced planning window, he put no effective vaccine distribution plans in place for the covid vaccine and as a result, about 40% of the vaccines that were shipped to New York state had to be junked because they exceeded their expiration date.
He then proceeded to blame everyone else but himself for his myriad of failures. Also, in the midst of the crisis, he spent time writing a book that praised himself for his leadership in the crisis rather than devote all of his energy to actually protecting state residents’ health.
Well, according to the National Review, even his trained health experts had problems with him:
- According to an article by Mairead Mcardle, at least nine senior health officials with the New York Health Department have resigned because of his incompetence since the beginning of the pandemic.
- These folks included the deputy commissioner of public health, Dr., Isaac Weisfuse, so these were not low ranking worker bees.
- Other departures included the director of the bureau of communicable disease control, the medical director for epidemiology, and a state epidemiologist.
- Much of the reason for the resignations was the conflict with the governor who insisted on using untested and untried ways of distributing the covid vaccine, i.e. using large hospital systems, vs. using already proven and in place existing vaccine distribution processes.
- Given the failure to distribute the vaccine efficiently in the state, it is now obvious that Cuomo was wrong and the experts were right.
- Dr. Weisfuse was pretty blunt about Cuomo’s failed plan: “The governor’s approach in the beginning seemed to go against the grain in terms of what the philosophy was about how to do this. It did seem to negate 15 to 20 years of work.”
- And yet Cuomo was adamant that he was somehow right, publicly insisting that he did not trust the experts in the health department despite his failed approach.
It continues to amaze how many times an American politician can fail so dramatically, still keep their job, and still try to convince us they were great in performing their tasks.
2) Despite being questioned any number of times, the Biden administration spokespeople have refused to answer questions about how many vaccines are available. But according to a recent Politico report, we now may know why no one is talking:
- According to Politico: “Biden’s team is still trying to locate upwards of 20 million vaccine doses that have been sent to states — a mystery that has hampered plans to speed up the national vaccination effort.”
- How does one lose 20 million of anything?
- Despite having ten months to put plans in place to track the vaccine doses as they were distributed, it appears that once the vaccine doses are shipped to the states, no one knows where they went, how many were distributed, how many were left, etc.
- One Biden official is quoted as saying, “It’s a mess.”
Note: pure conjecture, but it wouldn't surprise me, based on no information but knowing how corrupt government can be, that millions of those doses were somehow sidetracked to criminal elements that are reselling them somewhere in the world for a handsome profit. And by criminal elements that could include government employees or their connections. Again, simply a thought but one that should not be ruled out.
3) It is fun sometimes when politicians eat their own even if taxpayers and citizens get screwed in the process. During campaigning, Biden promised that if elected he would get $2,000 economic stimulus checks out to everyone in the country. In the meantime, Trump was able to get Congress to agree to $600 stimulus checks which have been distributed.
Well, Biden did the math and said he only now had to get out $1,400 stimulus checks out since Trump sent out $600 checks which reduced Biden’s $2,000 campaign promise down to $1,400. Which is when it gets interesting:
- There is actually a Twitter hashtag out there called #Bidenlied regarding this issue.
- This is the Biden statement that has many people up in anger and why they think he lied: “$600 is simply not enough when you have to choose between paying rent or putting food on the table. We need $2,000 stimulus checks.”
- PodcastHost Rtan Knight had this reaction: “$2000 is not $1400. So @JoeBiden is either a liar or really bad at math. I am going with LIAR.”
- Another social media comment: “#BidenLied and the whole government lied. Don’t say your given us $2000 checks when your really given us $1400 checks. That’s just cold, bruh.”
- Another reaction: “#BidenLied By the time the stimulus package arrives it’ll be more like 600 bucks instead of the 2000 we were promised but don’t worry, Jill Biden is going to hand out cookies later.”
- Another: “Liberals are more enraged that #BidenLied is trending than they are that half a million Americans are dead, millions more are threatened w/ eviction, tens of millions have no access to vaccine now.”
- Knight came back with another comment: “Nobody should be surprised that @JoeBiden lied about $2000 checks. He lied the entire primary, but liberals were too busy chanting ‘Trump bad’ to even care that they were nominating a pathological liar. #BidenLied.”
3) The thing that nobody in the political class seems to care about, whether it is $1,400 or $2,000, is where is this money coming from? This is not going to be funded out of current revenue streams, it is going to have to be financed by adding more debt to the Federal government’s national debt load which is eventually going to have to be paid by future taxpayers, our kids and our grandkids. It is like politicians think that wealth can just be printed up and distributed, no big deal.
But, as the following post discussed a little while ago, the country is on track to experience hyperinflation and eventual financial collapse as American politicians pile on the debt without regard to basic and dire economic consequences:
That will do it for today’s political class insanity: Cuomo is still a failure and his experts know it, politicians and the government entities they rule over have no planning skills at all, and the coming financial collapse is being accelerated by something called “economic stimulus checks” which create money out of thin air.
