For the first time in history, crude oil prices dropped to the point of entering a negative territory. This Monday, Fortune reports that the “evaporating demand and scarce storage” caused the decline to below zero. This decline means that there is a flip, with sellers effectively paying buyers to take the oil. Late Monday afternoon, the front-month WTI (West Texas Intermediate) contract sat at $38.45/barrel. This significant drop means that the decline was at 310.45%, all in the same day. An oil analyst from the Oslo based Rystad Energy told Fortune that this is almost unreal. Louise Dickson stated, “It’s like trying…

Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi discussed how delay and denial can cost lives. She was talking with Ari Melber about what could happen if situations regarding the coronavirus are delayed or denied, and she heavily stressed that it could cost lives. In that case, she’s right. Any delay or denial when it comes to medical situations and patients could always cost lives – that’s a given. However, as Nancy Pelosi speaks about this, she’s missing one really gigantic and obvious point – that she’s also very guilty of the same delay and denial she speaks of. Except, her delay and…

Hollywood actor and producer Rob Reiner made a bold prediction that President Trump will lose this year’s election, suggesting there is no hope for him to be reelected. Reiner, a well known Trump critic, has spoken out about him before. This time his message was short, but the reactions were many. Reiner stated, specifically, that “Trump will lose in a landslide because Americans will literally be voting for their lives.” Reiner does not provide any evidence or reasoning on why he believes this will be the case for President Donald Trump. Trump will likely square off against top Democratic candidate,…

In Columbus, Ohio, Lashawn Samuel made a lasting impression on how hard work pays off. For five years, Samuel walked three miles from his home to a local library to do his homework. Twelve colleges and universities accepted the Columbus City Schools’ student. Not only that, but some offered him a full scholarship. It includes his first choice, which is the Ohio State University. Against all the odds, including his health, personal safety, and financial security, Samuel will be the first person in his family to go to college. In his interview with WJHL, he said that his story is a…

After President Donald Trump gave governors the power to reopen their states, Mayor Lenny Curry announced that beaches and parks in Jacksonville, Florida, will be opened. The city’s mayor stated that this means that the beaches and parks will operate that same way before. These places will only be open for what was termed as essential activities. Not only that, but the operation will only be for limited hours. According to the Epoch Times, the essential activities were narrowed down to a list. These activities are walking, biking, hiking, fishing, running, swimming, taking care of pets, and surfing. Mayor Lenny specified…

President Donald Trump unleashed a flurry of Tweets aimed at Democrats in a demand that governors begin lifting statewide lock-downs when the outbreak flattens and the peak is over. Trump suggests that each state is different and had recently said it will be up to each governor to make their own decisions on when and how to start lifting stay-at-home orders and other lock-down sanctions that were put in place to help flatten the curve of the outbreak that originated in China and has since traveled all over the world. Trump’s tweet storm against Democrats focused on Minnesota, Michigan, and…

Michigan’s Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer has faced heavy criticism and protests after issuing a stay-at-home order. She now responds to the protests by stating that said protests could actually make the stay-at-home order last even longer because people are purposely breaking social distancing guidelines. This information from Whitmer was revealed during an interview on MSNBC with Rachel Maddow. Whitmer stated that she was concerned that people congregating in protest would cause the virus to bounce back and start spreading further. Whitmer also discussed the possibility of opening the state too soon and having a “second wave” strike her constituents. Whitmer…

Self-driving startup Zoox ended up losing in a lawsuit filed by Tesla. Tesla sued the startup company over trade secret theft. Engadget reports Zoox having over a hundred ex-Tesla employees. This data was gathered in Spring 2019 and has not undergone another survey to check whether or not more Tesla workers jumped ship. In a detailed report by MarketWatch, it turns out that this lawsuit was filed last year. The court statement gave details on Tesla’s former employees joining Zoox and bringing proprietary information. These stolen documents were used as a basis to cover shipping and warehouse processes for the…

A Sheriff in Los Angeles County has released 4,276 inmates from a county jail in hopes to slow or prevent the outbreak from taking over the jail. But, now he’s concerned that there might be a “future surge of crime” with so many inmates being released at once. Despite the fact that most of the inmates were said to be non-violent, one must remember that someone who is released from prison who has nowhere to go, no family to call, will often resort back to crime to survive out of necessity. Some criminals don’t have many options when they’re released,…

Failed candidate Bernie Sanders has officially endorsed Joe Biden and they went on live video to chat. Bernie Sanders was already pushing for free college for the generations coming up. Biden suggests proposing canceling student debt for people who were abused by private colleges. He makes a point because some colleges keep raising their tuition while offering nothing extra in return and that should be capped at some point. One way to drop the student debt is to simply lower the interest rates to 1-2% so students can make bigger payments that aren’t mostly interest. Biden and Sanders, surprisingly, were…

Michigan’s first time governor, Democrat Gretchen Whitmer, is being slammed for her draconian style of ruling and extreme measures during the outbreak. She’s officially been labeled as the worst governor in America, a title given to her by Robert Stacy McCain of Spectator. Whitmer received this title after people started calling her policies regarding the outbreak insane and to the extreme. McCain points out that Michigan, at the time, had the third-highest number of coronavirus cases. This could be due to people not social distancing like they’re supposed to. There’s no way to prove one way or the other why…

Former Vice President and top Democrat candidate for president, Joe Biden, now faces accusations from at least seven women who claim he inappropriately touched them. Tara Reade posted a video on social media telling her story and at least three other women have spoken out since the disturbing video was posted. Biden has a reputation of smelling people in public and getting too close and touchy-feely. He has acknowledged that he gets too close, but that hasn’t actually stopped him from continuing to do it. Now he’s facing accusations from seven women and it remains unclear if more will speak…

Democrat Governor Tom Wolf has ordered all PA schools to remain closed for the rest of the academic year as a response to the coronavirus. PA’s education secretary signed the official order on Thursday. Over 1.7 million students in both public and private schools, grades K-12, will stay home and most will learn via online remote classes. There is no specific date for all, as each school district has their own academic calendar. The order states for schools to remain closed until the end of their particular school year. 6ABC reports that Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf worked with Pedro Rivera,…

This is Texas Democratic Rep Sheila Jackson Lee. She’s the chair of the Congressional task force created to focus on COVID-19. She wears her medical face mask like this. She has her nose mostly uncovered and it’s very hard to believe that someone actually voted for this woman who appears incapable of wearing a mask the correct way at the height of an outbreak. Even worse, she was on television in Houston talking about ways people can prevent themselves from getting the virus and help stop the spread, but she’s wearing a mask like this, which is the completely wrong…

Most everyone who was around, and who possessed self awareness remembers where and what they were doing the morning 19 years ago on September 11, 2001. The day we learned two commercial planes had struck the very foundation of everything that stands for freedom, liberty and capitalism, The Twin Towers, The World Trade Center, The heart and soul of what makes America America. Living here in Silicon Valley I didn’t hear about what was happening until my wife woke me up to tell me something really bad was transpiring. That’s one of thousands of times my wife has woken me…

This is the one message that did not age well for the NYC Mayor’s Office who, back in February, told people there was nothing to worry about and that restaurants needed their business. Now NYC is the epicenter of outbreak with some of the most staggering numbers of sickness and people passing away from the pandemic. It’s nothing to take lightly, that’s for sure, as the outbreak sweeps across the country, hitting city after city. Some of the lower population cities don’t have it as bad, but considering the urban geography of New York City and the amount of people…

There was nothing but cheers for the captain who was removed from his duty upon the USS Theodore Roosevelt after it was discovered he raised concerns about an outbreak upon his ship, in hopes to keep his sailors safe and taken care of.  The Roosevelt holds almost 5,000 people and is an aircraft carrier. His name is Capt. Brett Crozier and he’s accused of using “extremely poor judgment” when his letter leaked that had concerns about his crews safety and a potential outbreak on the ship. It was Acting Navy Secretary Thomas Modly who said the commander used the poor…

China is getting slammed left and right with criticism for how they’re handling the pandemic and accusations of providing false statistics. Former U.S. Ambassador to Japan, Bill Hagerty, went all in to suggest China is acting like criminals and participating in the “greatest cover-up in human history.” And still, to this day, we have no idea what the true statistics are, how long they were truly dealing with the outbreak, or even what the actual cause may be. There are reports suggesting information for all of the above, but many people are very concerned that the information they read is…

Georgia Senator Kelly Loeffler is being accused of selling almost $50k worth of stock in an online travel company one day before President Donald Trump issued a travel ban on European travel to the United States to prevent the spread of the pandemic we’re currently dealing with. This comes after she was already accused of selling off stocks before the country became aware of the seriousness of the pandemic. The stocks were worth $46,027. Keep in mined that her husband is Jeffrey Sprecher and he’s the chief executive of Intercontinental Exchange, whose the parent firm of the New York Stock…

The 3M company faces a consumer boycott after they were accused of selling much needed medical masks to cash buyers representing other countries before selling them to America. The company was hit hard on Twitter by President Donald Trump and thousands of angry users who were using the hashtag, #Boycott3M. This was all revealed during an interview with Tucker Carlson and Jared Moskowitz, the head of Florida’s Division of Emergency Management. Moskowitz suggests that 3M distributors are “prioritizing foreign buyers after they refused to sell him the essential equipment.” It’s stated that the sales and shipping of the medical masks,…

President Donald Trump beat the impeachment and it didn’t take long for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff to come up with a new way to investigate him. Just so happens, the Democrats are doing it right in the middle of a crisis as the country suffers through a pandemic and Trump already has enough to deal with. House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff is requesting that there be a “9/11 style” committee who investigates the Trump administration and looks for “mistakes” being made in response to the virus. More specifically, Schiff wants “House Democrats must investigate the Trump…

First quarter reports are in for the ratings and CNN didn’t land one single show in the top 20. The best CNN was able to do was come in 22nd place and have a few shows listed after that. The top 20 ranks were dominated by shows on Fox News who had 14 of the top 20 spots. MSNBC had the other six spots in the top 20. CNN had zero shows rank in the top 20, but were able to land five ranking shows in positions 22-26. For those in the top ranks, it was Hannity, Tucker Carlson Tonight,…

The Police were right when they sang, “Don’t Stand So Close To Me!” According to recent reports coming out of Philly, if you’re caught outside not social distancing, well then you might catch a $100 fine! The police are now allowed to issue citations and a ticket/fine up to $100 if you’re outside breaking the stay-at-home order and standing a little too close to each other. Pennsylvania is currently under a stay-at-home order by Democrat Governor Tom Wolf. This means anyone who isn’t considered an essential worker, or isn’t doing something they think is essential, like shopping for groceries, going…

Democrat Maxine Waters might have sore feet after wearing these shoes. Waters stands in a photograph with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and many users on social media pointed out how painful her feet look crammed in her shoes. Not only that, but Maxine Waters also tweeted something very strange and then deleted it. She said, “#kcharlamps” and many readers were confused what she was trying to say. Some suggested that she utilized her rear end to send a type, or perhaps someone took her phone. Either way, the message posted on Maxine Waters’ account made no sense. Thankfully, user Mike…

When phase three of the current relief bill passed, it was House Speaker Nancy Pelosi who admitted she didn’t get everything she wanted as she went along with a bill that basically let her down. However, that’s a good thing, because many of the demands that Democrat Pelosi had in her bill were completely unrelated to the pandemic we’re dealing with. Speaker Pelosi is pushing for even more of her leftist demands in phase four of the relief bill, many of which might be repeats of what she already asked for the first time – and many of them have…

It’s time to prepare for the worst, according to predictions coming from the White House. They’re saying up to 100,000 to 240,000 lives could be lost from the illness that originated in China. President Trump himself is suggesting that a surge is coming, referring now to it as a plague, and wants us prepared for what he says could be a “very, very painful two weeks.” As of now, the United States has the most cases, more than any other country. We have “184,000 confirmed infections according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University.” (CNBC) New York has 75,795 of…

The Kennedy Center was slated to receive $25 million in relief funds, and shortly after the CARES Act was signed, they fired their musicians. All 96 members of the National Symphony Orchestra. The musicians were told that this week, on April 3rd, is their last check. This was sent to them via email. Many critics are asking what was the point in getting slotted for $25 million in relief if the Kennedy Center was just going to fire people anyway? Why give the Kennedy Center a $25 million taxpayer bailout just to watch people lose their job? As the drama…

Another great company jumps in to help when America is in need. The sporting attire company known as Under Armor, who makes the clothes that keep us cool during hot workouts, has pledged to help design and manufacture masks and other gear to help medical professionals. This comes through an announcement made directly by the Under Armor company. The masks they make may not be exactly the same as the ones doctors and nurses wear, but they will be similar and could certainly be helpful in preventing the spread of the illness that originated in China. For starters, they will…

President Donald Trump signed a $2.2 trillion relief bill for America. It’s giving people $1,200 while other places, many of them deemed very questionable, are receiving millions and people aren’t really sure why. Brent Bozell of Media Research Center posted a message that, if true, makes the relief bill that Trump signed appear even more appalling than we thought. As many people are aware, a single one time check of $1,200 will barely cover rent and utilities, let alone living expenses for many people who live in locations where the rent is much higher. Now that President Trump extended the…

A professor has now suggested that he would reconsider being an atheist if President Donald Trump would catch the virus and pass away from it. The professor was identified as Richard Wigmans, J.F. Bucy Chair Professor at Texas Tech University by Campus Reform, who first broke the story – one which Wigmans refers to Trump as things such as “president #45.” The article states that Wigmans emailed the physics department colleagues with his prediction on how the COVID-19 will affect things and even offered his opinion on how Trump is handling the situation. At first, Campus Reform states, Wigmans email…

If being a “Nasty Woman” was part of the job during her time helping Hillary Clinton, then this top executive who recently got fired sure fits the bill. The woman, identified as Laura Krolczyk, was fired from the Rosewell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, in Buffalo, New York, after she made sick comments, suggesting that patients give up ventilators if they are Trump supporters. Essentially, being left to die if they are diagnosed with the illness that originated from China. Krolcyzk was working as the vice president for external affairs. Apparently this all took place on Facebook, of course, where a…

Texas Governor, Greg Abbott, has signed an executive order to keep certain inmates in jail, and prevent them from being released amid the health scare that America is dealing with. While some Democratic figures like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez push for the release of prisoners, Abbott is doing the opposite with the community safety in mind. AOC has previously pushed Gov Cuomo to protect elderly prisoners. Abbott’s executive order “suspends portions of state law, bars personal bonds for anyone convicted or arrested on charges involving violence or the threat of violence. Abbott also outlawed commuting the sentences of inmates convicted of such…

This is not the first time the mainstream media has been called out for doing something like this.  CBS News is being accused of using footage from an Italian hospital while covering the situation in NYC. The evidence of this is proven when CBS aired a scene from a hospital in Italy, part of a video that was featured on Sky News, and did so while they were in the middle of a segment about New York City. This gives the audience a different view of what’s going on in NYC compared to Italy. It’s also very irresponsible to use…

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced plans to move to California and it would cost an estimated $1 million in security. President Trump says there’s no way that American taxpayers are footing the bill for this, and that the royal couple must pay for their own security. Specifically, President Trump stated, “I am a great friend and admirer of the Queen & the United Kingdom. It was reported that Harry and Meghan, who left the Kingdom, would reside permanently in Canada. Now they have left Canada for the U.S. however, the U.S. will not pay for their security protection. They…

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham has publicly scolded House Speaker Nancy Pelosi who went on the attack against President Donald Trump. Her attack took place after he signed the CARES Act, a $2.2 trillion relief bill for America. Graham was on “Sunday Morning Futures” stating his case against Nancy Pelosi, saying that her attack on President Trump was “shameful, disgusting” and called her out. Pelosi has accused President Trump of downplaying the situation, and said that he”fiddles” while suggesting that people have lost their lives because of his actions, or inaction. She has been criticized by politicians and voters…

There’s a new quarantine in town! Texas Governor, Greg Abbott, has put in place a mandatory self-quarantine for any travelers coming to Texas from the state of Louisiana in hopes to slow the spread of the illness that originated in China. This is an update from a recent executive order that required travelers from New Orleans to be on a 14 day quarantine during their visit to Texas, as reported by WBRZ. Here’s an excerpt from Governor Abbott’s new executive order, as provided by KTRK TV: My prior executive order about travel from New Orleans covered air travel from New…

President Donald Trump signed the $2.2 trillion CARES Act which allocates $25 million in a taxpayer funded bailout for the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Not long after that bill was signed, the Kennedy Center then announced to musicians in the National Symphony Orchestra that their last paycheck will be on April 3. There are almost 100 musicians affected by this who will not be paid after April 3. This information comes from a leaked email, per a report on Free Beacon. The email stated: “The Covid-19 Advisory Committee was broadsided today during our conversation with [Kennedy…

New York’s Democrat Governor Andrew Cuomo has now admitted that his state has a “stockpile of unused ventilators” – all after he previously complained that the American government was not providing enough. This comes after President Donald Trump stated, on Twitter, that there was plenty of ventilators in New York not even being used. Unsure of where Trump got his info from, but he said, “Thousand of Federal Government (delivered) Ventilators found in New York storage. N.Y. must distribute NOW!” Cuomo responded, according to Breitbart, saying, “Yes, they’re in a stockpile because that’s where they are supposed to be, because…

American Republicans might be upset when they learn that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi got her way with the relief bill as $350,000,000 was allocated for refugee and migrant assistance. Surprisingly, this is actually $50,000,000 more than what was originally requested for refugee assistance alone, as stated by the Daily Caller. The bill, which was voted on by both Democrats and Republicans unanimously, was approved, went to the House, and then signed off on by President Donald Trump. According to Daily Caller’s report, “on page 817 of the 880-page bill, the measure calls for “an additional amount for ‘Migration and Refugee…

Former Vice President Joe Biden was on CNN talking to Anderson Cooper and made a comment about “where I taught” – despite not teaching any regular classes. This comment refers to the University of Penn who DID hire Joe Biden as a professor, however his time there was spent making appearances. Biden was paid upwards of $775,000 to do so. To show this, we look back at a local Philadelphia based news site named Philly Mag who wrote about this. Their story, titled “Penn Paid Joe Biden $775,000 to Expand Its “Global Outreach” … and Give Some Speeches” raised a…

Many people did not expect to hear this coming from a Democratic Governor, but this is Andrew Cuomo of New York giving President Donald Trump praise for the way he’s handling the situation Americans are in right now. Cuomo says that Trump “has done a lot of good things” and “has been very helpful,” during his appearance on MSNBC with Chris Hayes. Cuomo says exactly what politicians must here – that this relationship must work for everyone. That means Democrats who dislike Trump, and vice versa, all need to come together for the greater good of the American people. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v97oMNvba0Y

President Donald Trump gives a short speech from a Navy ship, stating that the world is witnessing the “unyielding resolve of our incredible American people” as he refers to our ability to be very resilient in times of need. President Donald Trump is aboard a Navy ship being used as a medical station. This is located at the Naval Station in Norfolk, Virginia. Trump is pushing on and keeping a positive tone with Americans while still finding time to make remarks about the Democrats and media who consistently badger him instead of presenting worthwhile content. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QG-P8TYCkg

The man is only 38-years-old and he’s thanking President Donald Trump for his survival after contracting the coronavirus. The man, who has no other health conditions, says the combination of treatments that Trump said might work, actually worked. His name is Jim Santilli and he gave his story to Steve Gruber, as reported by Breitbart. After giving the story and crediting Trump, Santilli then went on to criticize his own governor who was accused of threatening doctors and pharmacists if they used what Trump was talking about.  This would be Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, a Democrat, who is neither a scientist,…

Here’s an ICU nurse giving a firsthand detail of what it’s like working in a hospital during a situation like this. She’s isolated from her team, there’s a massive amount of patients and not enough supplies and staff. It’s literally crazy. So basically, we need to stay home so she can get those patients better, faster! https://twitter.com/_SJPeace_/status/1242974555905327104?s=20

A South Philly mom gave former PA Governor Ed Rendell a run for his money as she pushed back hard against the proposed safe injection site. She blasted Rendell with some honesty and accused him of sneaking this into the plans. 6ABC reported: “We have made the decision to cancel plans to locate a supervised injection site at Constitution Health Plaza,” said Anthony Campisi, a spokesman for Constitution Health Plaza. According to Mayor Jim Kenney, Safehouse voluntarily delayed its opening so it could focus on meeting with the community but the building owner alerted the City that he was no…
