Anyone who's followed the political career of former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg knows he's a great one for telling other people what to do and how to live. An ex-smoker, he declared war on cigarettes and banned the "Big Gulp" and other large, carry-out soft drinks because he believed they contributed to obesity, raising the cost of public health initiatives. And, despite spending millions on efforts to keep everyday Americans from exercising their Second Amendment rights, he's usually accompanied by an armed security detail.
Shares Being that the U.S. government has shown some compassion during this national emergency by issuing a 90-day reprieve on filing our federal income taxes, I believe all banks and creditors should follow suit.
Shares With all due respect for Joe Biden, who is a fine man, given his apparent mental-acuity problems it's highly unlikely that he would complete even one full term as president of the United States if elected. Obviously, his likely female running mate (Hillary Clinton) would then be elevated to the Oval Office via succession without ever having won election herself.

Democrats' new worry is less obvious, but still quite dangerous: Mr. Biden could alienate enough liberals to keep them away in November.
Shares America is not a hospital ward. America is a vast country with the most successful economy ever. It is a capitalist economy. From time to time it is hit by unforeseen misfortunes. This time it was hit by an unforeseen virus, but the economy must go on.

One side effect of the SARS Coronavirus-2 appears to be a diminished appetite among Americans for war with Russia. Given the overreaction by my fellow Americans, thanks to whom I may have to go back to Soviet toilet paper (newspaper) -- and am once again getting into any line I see -- one would hate to see how they'd react in a real crisis
Shares The American Republic may be dying. The U.S. Constitution, federalism and freedoms we have too often taken for granted have all fallen victim to a virus from far off Wuhan and the panic of our leaders and people.

It's time for conservatives to get behind much broader use of mail-in absentee ballots and consider a broader switch to voting by mail. During the coronavirus crisis, both practices would help more people vote safely without offering a clear advantage to any faction.
Shares In 2017, Fatou Bensouda announced her intention to investigate alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by U.S. military personnel in Afghanistan. This month, after drawn-out deliberations, the ICC announced that the investigation would go forward.
Shares U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson ordered the country's citizens to stay home, stay inside and stay off the streets -- else face fines, police roundup and, if necessary, even jail. Talk about starting a national panic. Until you take a couple seconds and think about it, that is. Then it's just -- well, stupid.
Shares The vast majority of people who came to America in her founding days did so to obtain the freedom to worship freely. New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland -- they were settled as "plantations of religion." Fast forward to 2020, the time of the coronavirus outbreak, and churches have closed. Yet Walmart remains open. Priorities, please?
Shares Every pandemic has a silver lining. In this one we have finally determined without any doubt that regular White House press briefings no longer serve any useful purpose and should never be resumed.
Shares An ABC News/Ipsos poll released last past Friday revealed that 55 percent of Americans approve of President Trump's management of the coronavirus crisis, while 43 percent disapprove ("Trump's approval rating up since last week for coronavirus outbreak management: Poll," Web, March 20). Just one week earlier, in the same poll, those numbers had been 54 percent disapproving and only 43 percent approving. That's a huge reversal in just one week, reflecting strong public confidence in our president. But try finding that news on the websites of the mainstream media. It might be there, but you're going to have work awfully hard to find it.
Shares The media's tone when speaking to President Trump at the daily briefings is belligerent, combative and disrespectful. Meanwhile, their manner is polite and professional when speaking to the experts also at the podium with the president. This conduct borders on suicidal treason.
Shares Change that happens day by day is to be expected. The world shifting on its axis practically overnight is not. Just as Joe Biden has apparently hit paydirt on his third try for the top of the Democratic Party's presidential ticket, the nation he hopes to lead looks like an episode of "The Twilight Zone." The coronavirus that is putting American lives in peril is also shredding the trendy notion that borders are losing their relevance, which the candidate has adopted in his winning cause. The requirements of presidential leadership have recalibrated, and progressive policies that sacrifice national security for gauzy globalism are now trash.
