SEMCOG Update: “hot spots” Edition

The more that things over time change, the more they stay the same. Ignoring it will not change a thing.

Information from State data as of March 28, 2020.

Livingston County- 31 – 1 death

Macomb County- 404 – 14 deaths

Monroe County- 28

Oakland County- 834 – 26 deaths

St. Clair County- 15

Washtenaw County- 150 – 3 deaths

Wayne County & Detroit City- 1,810 – 37 death

Total- 3,262 or, 89.19% of all confirmed cases of the China Virus and 88.04% of all deaths (81).

Isolating the core problem is the only logical step to make across the country.

Thank you, Mr. President! Americans want to get back to work. This is what real leadership looks like, not like imposing a knee-jerk economic shutdown from Gov. Gretchen “Half” Whitmer using the Democrats playbook to sink our economy by putting Michiganians out of work and shuttering business that bureaucrats in Lansing deem as ‘non-essential.’

Yet Another “Leading” From Behind Moment

“Last week, the Trump administration extended the federal income tax deadline to July 15.”

So basically, greasy forehead Gretchen got herself elected as governor and all she has accomplished for Michiganians is she earned herself a nickname.

Heh! I truly do love our President.

Someone whispered into her ear: “If you don’t find a way to walk that threat made to doctors back, you will find a Stiletto jammed up your backside so fast ..”

The Director of Michigan’s Licensing agency Debra Gagliardi has ‘refined’ her message to suggest that all they were talking about with regard to Hydroxychloriquine was that hoarding was a concern.  Though not entirely sanctioning the use of the antimalarial drug as a cure for this new public health threat, the softened tone of LARA in its newest release is clear: “Doctors do what you gotta do!”

Restoration PAC Releases NEW John James Ad

by  •  • 0 Comments

DOWNERS GROVE, IL – Restoration PAC today announced a new statewide TV ad buy in the Michigan Senate race drawing the distinction between dynamic outsider John James and go-with-the-flow career politician Gary Peters.

Restoration PAC has been a strong supporter of James since 2017.

The :30 ad airs across Michigan starting Saturday and runs two weeks. The buy is approximately $280,000. It will be supplemented by at least $10,000 in digital advertising.

The new ad again hits Peters on his cagey support of the Green New Deal. Peters told the Detroit News he supports “many aspects” of the radical plan, but has been non-responsive about specifics.

“I can’t think of a contest anywhere in America where voters will have a starker choice,” said Restoration PAC founder Doug Truax. “On one hand, you have John James, a combat veteran and accomplished outsider with fresh ideas versus Gary Peters, a reliable, go-along career politician who supports many aspects of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal.”

Restoration PAC’s first Michigan TV ad aired last November and focused on Peters’ non-specific support for the Green New Deal.

Restoration PAC was formed in 2015 and since has become one of the most effective conservative SuperPACs in America. It has focused primarily on U.S. Senate races but has also launched TV and digital advertising in the 2016 presidential race and several House races.

SEMCOG Update 3

The only thing that changes is the day.

Information from State data as of March 27, 2020.

Livingston County- 21 – 1 death

Macomb County- 347 – 11 deaths

Monroe County- 21

Oakland County- 668 – 15 deaths

St. Clair County- 13

Washtenaw County- 92 – 3 deaths

Wayne County & Detroit City- 1,389 – 26 deaths

Total- 2,551 or, 89.32% of all confirmed cases of the China Virus and 93.33% of all deaths (56).

It’s so blatantly obvious to identify where the problem exists and who should be isolating themselves from the rest of us Michiganians until the TrumpCure takes effect that even a nitWhitmer should be able to see it.

Then again, Gov. nitWhitmer wants you dead.

UPDATE: The coverage of Gov. nitWhitmer threatening physicians and pharmacists is pretty much blowing up everywhere on the internet.

With leadership like this, what possibly could go wrong? 🤦🏼‍♂️

Ps. sit on it and spin, Lee.

Porkculus – The Revenge

by  •  • 0 Comments

Some readers may recall this term bandied about several years ago, when Congress being Congress, went on a spending spree that can be accurately compared to giving an alcoholic an open bar tab and then being shocked when not only all of the top shelf inventory is cleaned out first, but the rest of the bar as well.

Take a wild guess what happened earlier this week?

When an incompetent nitWhit hires a Crook, This is to be Expected

From today’s headlines: Michigan is missing 225K surgical masks and nobody appears to know why

Two words- Joneigh Khaldun. If you’re not familiar with that claptrap from Detroit, do take a moment to read.

That said, from within the article not only does U.S. Rep. Paul Mitchell expose the gross negligence of the Gov. nitWhitmer administration but, also how ignorant Greasy forehead Gretchen looks when all she does is whine on the Fakestream news media about her Trump Derangement Syndrome because – wait for it – she is co-chair on Joementia Biden’s campaign committee.

More importantly, here is a very relevant part.

U.S. Rep. Elissa Slotkin, a Holly Democrat, said part of the problem is the national stockpile hasn’t been heavily invested in over several administrations or Congresses and is under-supplied.
….

Slotkin learned the limitations of the stockpile in 2014 when she was acting assistant defense secretary during the Ebola outbreak in West Africa.

“We clearly very early knew they were not equipped to quickly deploy, to move resources around the country or world. They were not as strong as one would have hoped,” she said.

Wait? What? 2014? Elissa Slotkin knew 6 years ago? And, who was in office then? Oh, that’s right, it was Bathhouse Barry and this guy…

Folks, I really will never understand why anyone in CD-8 voted for this carpetbagging CIA operative that worked for two prior failed presidents.

My Brother George

by  •  • 6 Comments

Rarely, I post on the passing of someone on the blog.

But it isn’t often that someone who has impacted me in a way that warrants it.  In 2010, it was my mother, and in 2019 it was Norm Hughes.  Other honorable mentions have happened, though direct impact was not the reason for sharing my thoughts.

If you have ever used a video disc, you could thank George.  Bought cheap CDs or DVDs?  It was a pretty cool development that brother George developed in his optical plastics career, speeding up times and making the CD revolution happen.  Your eyeglasses?  It was his garage chemistry which made it so that you probably aren’t carrying around heavy glass any longer.

OK, he wasn’t my brother  ..brother.  But was a warrior.  He was my brother in arms, and pushed me to get involved in areas I never had considered, and with positive results.  He read this blog, and loved to read all of the authors, and had a few favorites.

George started with nothing.  In fact if it is possible, he started with less than nothing.  His childhood would have earned urgent visits from CPS if it were to exist today.  While a roof over one’s head is good, going to bed with a glass of water next to the bed that would have a film of ice in the morning is not.
