A credible accusation of sexual assault has been leveled against presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden. America’s ruling class, the liberal media and hypocritical feminists circled the wagons to protect him, but they were unable to prevent social media, Fox News and conservative talk radio from forcing the issue. Biden will have to give a credible response or Democratic Party insiders will force him to step down. And so far, he is failing. Ms. Reade worked on Senator Biden’s staff in 1993. She alleges that Biden pushed her up against a wall, inserted his finger into her private parts and said,” Come on, man, I heard you liked me." When she rebuffed him, Biden responded, "You're nothing to me, nothing." A similar charge was leveled against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. Dr. Christine Blasey Ford accused Kavanaugh of attempting to rape her at a party while they were both teenagers. Feminists, the media, the academic community and Hollywood rose up to castigate Kavanaugh, proclaiming “Believe all women” and giving rise to the #MeToo … [Read more...]
Voters Must Believe That Elections Are Fair
Years ago, my cousin voted in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Like Connecticut, when you vote in Pennsylvania, the staff looks at the list of voters and crosses out your name. When she looked at the list, she saw my grandmother’s and my Aunt Lucy’s names crossed out, as if they had already voted. The problem was that Grandma Bentivegna was dead and Aunt Lucy had moved to New Jersey years prior. But they had voted in Scranton. And it is safe to say that they did not vote Republican. The Democrats are using the coronavirus pandemic as an excuse to convince Americans that they are risking their life by voting. Thus, they are recommending the increased use of mail-in voting, early voting and absentee ballots while extending the time periods before and after Election Day. But in today’s polarized political environment, it is crucial that voters believe in the integrity of the ballot box. Allowing absentee ballots is not unreasonable. Many voters are elderly and a trip to the polls is arduous, … [Read more...]
More Coronavirus Testing – Helpful but not a Panacea
Testing, testing and more testing. That is the mantra health experts are telling the American people is the best way to contain the coronavirus pandemic. And they are right, up to a point. But these tests have limitations and those who expect clear-cut advice or a risk-free future are going to be disappointed. Before understanding coronavirus testing, let’s take a simplified look at how the immune system works. When our bodies are invaded by a virus, the affected cells secrete messenger proteins that signal our white blood cells to attack the virus to prevent further spread. Often this is enough. But then our body comes up with a secondary response. It manufactures specific proteins called antibodies and killer white blood cells that can recognize the invading virus and destroy it if it reinvades. This is called immunity. Thus, there are two types of tests to check for coronavirus – one identifies the actual virus in a patient; the other identifies the antibodies. … [Read more...]
