Yesterday, Cindy Hyde-Smith, a White Banana Republican United States Senator from Mississippi made some genuinely STUPID remarks in a Senate Rules Committee hearing.
She’s the same Cindy Hyde-Smith who not too long ago infamously said “If he invited me to a public hanging, I’d be on the front row,” in Tupelo, MS after Colin Hutchinson, cattle rancher, praised her on November 11, 2018.
“In the Senate today, during the Rules Committee’s big hearing on HR1/S1, the “For The People” Act, which among other things would protect the right to vote for ALL eligible Americans, Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith, a Republican from Not Georgia, let us know why she thinks people shouldn’t be able to vote on Sundays, and definitely not in Mississippi.”
First of all, she’s a Banana Republican.
Secondly, she attended a segregated, Whites-only High School.
Thirdly, she’s from Mississippi.
Fourthly, she’s a Trump sycophant.
Need I continue?
But ANYONE can view her remarks in context in the links below. Also, her remarks are transcribed as follows.
Her remarks begin at 2:46:10 as Committee Chair Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar acknowledges Mississippi Senator Hyde-Smith, who then states, “Before we start, I have a question for the Chair,” addressed to Chair Amy Klobuchar, which Chair Klobuchar acknowledges, and bids her to continue, which she does, as follows: Read the rest of this entry »

This is the Chinese coronavirus flag.
The coronavirus has now infected more than SARS ever did
One month after the new coronavirus was discovered, the virus has infected more people than the related SARS coronavirus did when it broke out in 2002/2003.
The newly erupted coronavirus has now infected more people than the related SARS coronavirus did during the SARS outbreak in 2002/2003. The latest official figures released by the Chinese authorities on Friday show that 9809 people have been infected with the new coronavirus. In comparison, a total of 8422 people were infected with SARS between November 2002 and July 2003, after which the WHO declared that the risk of infection at SARS was over. In addition, the Chinese authorities suspect that an additional 15,238 people are infected with the new coronavirus.
213 people have so far died of the new coronavirus, while the SARS outbreak killed a total of 916 people.
Chinese authorities have previously said that the coronavirus, which is still only officially known under the name 2019-ncov, had a mortality rate of about 2% – that is, about 2% of the infected door.Read the rest of this entry »

As the Rota Fortuna – the wheel of fortune – goes, one side goes up, while the corresponding side goes down.
America’s turn is next.
We’re comin’ up!

Among the corporate titans and global leaders attending the World Economic Forum in the eastern Chinese city of Tianjin this week a fascinating division appears to have formed.
In quiet conversations and background chats with Chinese officials and analysts about the state of things in China, the tone of despondency and cynicism was pervasive while the views of international attendees on China were generally bullish and upbeat.

It’s sometimes said that, “Coincidence is when God chooses to remain anonymous.” Or, as a dear friend of mine once put it, “I don’t believe in coincidence. I believe in God-incidence.”
Thanks be to God, I’ve recently accepted an offer of employment in my field, and will shortly be relocating to be more near that job. For me, that means an out-of-state move. I am thankful… IMMENSELY thankful, for the opportunity, in so many different ways.
As part of my expression of thanks, I had written a note of thanks to one of my Flickr contacts recently, and wanted to share the essence of that letter with you all.
So, with little editing, what follows below represents the gist of the idea I shared in the message.
And before you read further, be aware that this note contains very poignant irony.
