Subpoena...

A senate committee voted along party lines to issue a subpoena as part of the Republican-led investigation into the Ukrainian energy firm that hired former Vice President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden.

The subpoena is one of several steps Senate Republicans are taking to ramp up probes related to the Obama administration and Biden, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee who will likely challenge President Donald Trump in the 2020 election.

Democrats denounced the investigation as a partisan effort to help Trump's reelection bid.

It's pay back time. Never forget, never forgive. An Eye for an eye and a subpoena for a subpoena. Just a thought.

NYC had over 20,000 Death from Covid 19- San Francisco    35.

Plan...

Open...

Restaurants and bars should consider installing sneeze guards at their registers. Mass transit workers should close every other row of seats on their buses. Students should eat lunch in their classrooms instead of congregating in a cafeteria.

These are among the social distancing measures that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention listed in a document it quietly released on its website this week outlining recommendations for reopening restaurants, mass transit, schools and childcare programs across the United States amid the coronavirus pandemic.

For all institutions, the CDC recommended thorough disinfection for high-traffic areas: door handles of businesses, turnstiles in mass transit stations, playground equipment at schools. 

It urged face coverings in any area where it would be impossible to socially distance, including for staff in childcare settings and for older children in schools. And it encouraged plentiful hand sanitizer in schools, as long as it was safely stored away from children, and on tabletops at restaurants.

Back Seat...

Contained..?

Believe it or not, on March 1, New York City recorded its first positive case for the novel coronavirus. 

On March 2, Mayor Bill de Blasio with future "Love Gov" Andrew Amazon Cuomo at his side said "We have the capacity to keep this contained." 

On March 10, de Blasio told MSNBC, with reckless inaccuracy, that "If you're under 50 and you're healthy, which is most New Yorkers, there's very little threat here. This disease, even if you were to get it, basically acts like a common cold or flu. And transmission is not that easy." 

By March 15, with great reluctance, Hizzoner finally joined the rest of big-city America in closing public schools. 

On March 16, he worked out at the Park Slope YMCA.

Now near the end of May2020, New York City is the American epicenter of the deadly virus, with more than 20% of the New Yorkers are positive/exposed etc. to the virus and 26,000 deaths, and de Blasio has gone from reluctant institutions-shutterer to someone who has threatened churches and synagogues with "potentially closing the building permanently" if they don't keep their doors closed.

Millions need the gov. handout to put food on their family's table in the overbuilt City that became a death trap to thousands. Million have fled the city to a location away from the madness.

Modified...

Texas, a salon owner was arrested earlier this month for ignoring cease and desist orders. Shelley Luther, who violated a stay-at-home order by keeping her Dallas-area salon open, was sentenced to jail time.

A few days later, Texas Governor Greg Abbott modified his COVID-19 executive orders, effectively setting Luther free.

Similar incidents have occurred in other states, and groups of demonstrators have gathered in Michigan, North Carolina, Colorado and elsewhere to protest stay-a-home orders. 

Many states have now begun loosening stay-at-home orders and opening up, including parts of New York, which will open by region and in phases depending on health conditions in each region.

Linder...

Democratic congressman from Nevada admitted that he was involved in “a previous relationship outside of my marriage.”

U.S. Rep. Steven Horsford – a married man with three children who represents the state’s 4th Congressional District -- acknowledged the affair after a former intern to former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid revealed she is “Love Jones,” the focus of a podcast series called “Mistress for Congress.”

The  woman’s real name is Gabriela Linder and she told the Review-Journal that she and the congressman were engaged in an off-and-on sexual relationship between 2009 and 2019.

When they first met, she was 21 and Horsford was the 36-year-old majority leader of the Nevada state Senate.  She said she wants her story to be a warning for other young women about relationships with older men in positions of power.

Choices choices, Happens everywhere.

Trap...

New York is the epicenter of the coronavirus in the United States, with far more cases than many entire countries. Positive tests in the state made up a quarter of those in the whole U.S. , with more than 335,000 cases. The death from the COvid 19 is more than 26,000 with approximatley significant unknown death to be added.

There have been significantly more cases in New York City than other metropolises around the world, such as London, Paris, Shanghai and Tokyo.

The number of confirmed cases in Shanghai, nine hours' drive from Wuhan, the epicenter of China's coronavirus outbreak, is only in triple digits.

New York declared a state of emergency early on March 7, a week after the state's first reported case – a woman who traveled from Iran. 

NYS. politicians gave mixed messages to the public, initially suggesting the outbreak would be readily contained, until the city was overwhelmed with the virus. The state's stay-at-home order came on March 20, and went into effect two days later.

Those who new, fled the city, and the rest became entrapped in a city that is built on top of each other.
