Ohio is starting to re-open. Not soon enough, but Ohio is faring better than New York. New York Post (and Federalist) contributor David Marcus was
on Fox News’ Tucker Carlson program yesterday evening to expand on his NY Post op-ed. He wants New York to get back to
work. He’s right. Here’s some of his editorial:
By prolonging the coronavirus
shutdown long after its core mission was accomplished, Gov. Andrew Cuomo and
Mayor Bill de Blasio have plunged tens of thousands of New Yorkers into
poverty.
It needs to end. Now.
In mid-March, we were told we have
to endure a lockdown to ensure that hospitals didn’t get overrun. We did. The
hospitals were not overwhelmed. We turned the Javits Center into a hospital. We
didn’t need it. We brought in a giant Navy ship to treat New Yorkers. We didn’t
need it.
We were told we were moments away
from running out of ventilators. We weren’t, and now the United States has
built so many, we are giving them away to other countries.
Meanwhile, the Big Apple is dying.
Its streets
are empty. The bars and jazz clubs, restaurants and coffeehouses sit
barren. Beloved haunts, storied rooms, perfect-slice joints are shuttered, many
for good. The sweat equity of countless small-business owners is evaporating. Instead
of getting people back to work providing for their families, our mayor talks
about a fantasyland New Deal for the post-coronavirus era.
Open the city. All of it. Right
now. Broadway shows, beaches, Yankees games, the schools, the top of the
freakin’ Empire State building. Everything. New Yorkers have already learned to
socially distance. Businesses can adjust. The elderly and infirm can continue
to be isolated.
. . .

We also know that Dr. Anthony Fauci’s advice has been wrong every
time. For a listing of his continuing
mistakes, here’s a column by Mark Simone posted earlier this month at the 710 WOR
website. Not to beat the dead horse, but today we are reading that “Mastermind
of LOCKDOWN Dr. Anthony Fauci NOW says staying closed for too long could cause
‘IRREPARABLE DAMAGE’! (headline quote via Pamela Geller here.)
