    Cute, and almost funny, response Wise-Guy!

    Sure, Joe Rogan threw everything but the kitchen sink at it as he can afford to do. He was also a very healthy guy to begin with...not that otherwise healthy people haven't come down with serious covid symptoms...many have.

    Riddle me this...why is it that in the African APOC countries (Nigeria, Ethiopia, DRC, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Sudan, Angola, Mozambique, Ghana, Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Niger, Burkina Faso, Mali, Malawi, Senegal, Chad, and others), with a total population of over 800,000,000, where IVM is routinely used to prevent and treat river blindness, the death rate from covid is only 33 per million of population? Compare that to 1,989 cases per million population in the U.S. with all of our expensive treatments available. It's unlikely that monoclonal antibodies which cost $1,250 per dose are being used widely to treat Covid in Africa.

    These are verifiable facts! I'm sorry if facts scare you.

    Flu By Night. It was Joe Rogan, not Seth Rogan. With a net worth of around $100 million, I'm sure Joe was able to get a doctor's prescription for the pharmaceutical version of Ivermectin. Nearly 4 billion doses have been taken by humans with little to no side effects over its 40+ year history, and there is strong evidence to support its use as an anti-inflammatory and Cytokine storm blocker.

    Of course, it's about money and control. The patent expired many years ago, so there is no money to be made by Big Pharma. The media make a huge percentage of their profits from pharmaceutical ads, so availability of a safe, effective, and inexpensive treatment threatens their livelihood, hence the recent narrative that people are using a horse dewormer to treat covid.

    I'm generally not into war movies, but this one held me captive for the full 91 minutes. It is very well made.

    Such great news! Kudos to Tom Kusian! Can't wait to check it out and hear some live music there on our next visit to Tucson.

    We need to get money out of politics regardless of which side of the aisle or which party's president benefits from it. What have we become? We need a government that is OF, BY, and FOR the people...all people, not just the rich and powerful!

    Great article, David. I was especially saddened by the cancellation of the Tucson Folk Festival for the first time in over 30 years, but I've been enjoying some online concerts that favorite Tucson musicians have been performing through zoom and FB live. It's quite a special treat to enjoy Tucson's music scene from Costa Rica. How can we find more information about your virtual Club Congress?

    Thanks for all you do to keep Tucson music scene going and making sure the musicians are gainfully employed. Keep up the good work!

    With just over a week to go until Arizona's 2020 Democratic Primary is in the history books, there are still three candidates in the race. The mainstream media would like us to believe that our only choices are two white male septuagenarians who, if elected, would become octogenarians early in their first term.. Both of them bring strong resumes, but one of them recently had a heart attack and is being labelled as a socialist or sometimes even a communist. The other is showing serious signs of cognitive decline, and even in his more cognitive years frequently supported cuts to Social Security and Medicare and struggled with telling the truth.

    But there is a third choice that the DNC and their cohorts in the mainstream media don't want you to know about because she took a principled stand and stepped down as Vice chair of the DNC four years ago, and that angered some powerful DNC operatives. Tulsi Gabbard is a young, intelligent, honest, principled, vibrant, and articulate woman of color who has served in the Army National Guard for almost 17 years, including two active duty tours in the Middle East. She is also serving her fourth term in Congress where she has worked on the Foreign Affairs and Homeland Security Committees and she currently serves on the Financial Services and Armed Services Committees and the House Intelligence Emerging Threats and Capabilities Subcommittee. She holds the highest level security clearance, Top Secret with Special Access which means that any and all interactions with foreign actors are thoroughly and continuously investigated.

    Most people don't pay much attention to foreign policy, but we should! On January 14, Tulsi Gabbard hosted a roundtable discussion with former Congressman/ Presidential Candidate, Dennis Kucinich and award-winning foreign correspondent and author Stephen Kinzer. Stephen Kinzer stated the following:

    “All those programs that many of the progressive candidates want, realistically speaking, are never gonna get through Congress. They’re not going to materialize. You’ll get some things, but Congress is gonna block 90% of the good social programs that any progressive leader is gonna try to impose, BUT in foreign policy, a president can REALLY make a change and can REALLY reorient this country ... Foreign policy IS the place where a president can make a dramatic difference in a way that no president will ever be able to do in the next four years in domestic policy ... If we really want to change this country, there is one way it can be done simply by electing a new president. And that means changing completely the way America faces the rest of the world. And that would be one of the most profound changes that we could possibly make to bring us back to being the country that we once dreamed that we wanted to be.”

    The entire video is available on YouTube, and it is quite interesting.

    Tulsi Gabbard is the one presidential candidate who has made foreign policy the cornerstone of her campaign. She is firmly committed to diplomacy. She is passionate about ending our costly, deadly, and unnecessary wars and reallocating those funds and human resources to provide healthcare, education, and infrastructure for people at home. In my humble opinion, we do need to improve those services, and Tulsi's approach makes a lot more sense than simply "taxing the rich".

    Tulsi Gabbard is absolutely the best-qualified candidate to serve as commander in chief. No other candidate has the foreign policy expertise, the strength of her convictions, and the diplomatic skills needed to repair our broken international relationships and regain respect for the United States on the world stage.

    While Tulsi emphasizes the need for a more diplomatic foreign policy to stop the endless wars, she also has a rock solid domestic policy platform as well. You can find her views on all of the issues at www.tulsi2020.com/issues. You can also find hundreds of hours of interviews and town halls on her YouTube channel. I encourage you to get to know her so you're aware of all of your choices.
