    MINNEAPOLIS: MUSLIM CALL TO PRAYER BLASTED OVER LOUDSPEAKERS FIVE TIMES A DAY IN U.S. FIRST.

     

    “The area of Minneapolis blasting the call to prayer lies in the district of controversial Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar.”

     

     

    Now, I am quite sure that calling this out will make me a "bigot", but

     

    References to Christian ideas, no matter how obscure, are railed against in public life in America.

    TYLER COWEN: How things are, in a few short words. Quotable:

    If we keep the economy closed at current levels, it will continue to decay, and at some point turn into irreversible, non-linear damage. No one knows when, or how to model the course of that process. That decay also will eat into our future public health capacities, and perhaps boost hunger and poverty around the world.

     

    If we keep people locked up at current levels, fewer of them will be exposed to the virus, and in the meantime we can develop better treatments, and also improve test and trace capabilities. No one knows how quickly those improvements will come, or how to model the course of that process, or how much net good they will do.

     

    The relative pace of those two processes should determine our best course of action. No one knows the relative pace of either of those two processes. Yet commentators pretend to be increasingly knowledgeable, moralizing based on the pretense of knowledge they do not have.

     

     

    Indeed.

    I don't know, perhaps orchestrate and attempt to execute a backdoor coup using the CIA, DOJ, FBI, and the establishment press as political weapons? 

     

    Because if he did that, we'd know people like Billsztime would be fully supportive -- just as they've been for 44 who actually did those things.

     

     

    Well, 7 Days in May IS coming up.

    Tyler Bass, Kicker

    SCHOOL: Georgia Southern
    YEAR: Senior
    HEIGHT: 5-11
    WEIGHT: 185 lbs

     

    Bass was red-shirted in 2015 with the Eagles and didn't take over as their kicker until 2017. The South Carolina native was awarded All-Sun Belt First Team once (2018) and All-SBC Second Team twice (2017 and 2019).

     

    He finished his career at Georgia Southern going 114/116 on extra points and was 54/68 on field goals. Two notes - Bass was 93% on field goals from 30-50 yards and only allowed nine returns last season on kickoffs!

    MEDIA CRITICISM OF GOVERNOR KEMP FOR REOPENING GEORGIA IS DISHONEST AND HYPOCRITICAL:

     

    “It is even more outrageous to watch the press completely disregard the specific guidance in Kemp’s order.

     

    Then you can add blatant hypocrisy of the coverage when you review the announcement from Colorado’s Democrat governor, Jared Polis. I

     

    t is infuriating. According to the Denver Post, Governor Polis has given his plan a catchy name, Safer at Home. Maybe that is the difference. However, the fundamentals are pretty similar, right down to tattoo parlors.”

     

    It’s different when they do it, somehow.

    Lil Kim Reported Dead

    STAY TUNED: Numerous U.S. Media Outlets Reporting that Kim Jong Un is in ‘Vegetative’ State.

     

     

     

    UPDATE (FROM GLENN): Is he alive? Is he dead? For the moment, I’m calling him Schrodinger’s Dictator.

     

    That news conflicts with reports from another great parody news account, DPRK News:

    dprk_news_kim_jong_un_4-25-20.jpg

     

    As Glenn said, he really is Schrodinger’s Dictator right now.

    The news stories that were published yesterday featured these speculative details: Kim Jong Un in ‘vegetative state’, Japanese media claims; China medical experts dispatched to North Korea.

    “Japanese magazine Shukan Gendai reported that Kim collapsed during a visit to a rural area in April. Kim reportedly required a stent procedure following the incident. Shukan Gendai subsequently detailed how the surgeon in charge of Kim’s operation was not used to dealing with obese patients and was too nervous during the operation, leading to delays that left Kim in a ‘vegetative state.’”

    How nervous? “Other unconfirmed reports, attributed to senior party sources in Beijing, said an operation to insert a stent went wrong because the surgeon’s hands were shaking so badly,” the New York Post adds.

     

    Shades of the scene in The Death of Stalin when they Politburo couldn’t find any competent doctors to revive Stalin – because Stalin had recently had all the good doctors rounded up and shot during his “Doctors’ Plot” purge.
