The Kids Belong Back In School ~ Ep. 1297 ~ The Dan Bongino Show®

From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:

In this episode, I address the liberal’s real plan to destroy your police department and render you defenseless. I also address the media’s disgusting disinformation campaign on the coronavirus as it relates to your child’s education.

As the title to this episode says, "The Kids Belong Back In School."  This episode begins with Dan's message, and I wholeheartedly agree!  And I really want you to see that segment.  There is a clip that Dan shows an MSNBC (MSdnc) anchor who asks several pediatricians what they think about sending kids back to school.  The anchor's reaction to not hearing the answers he was expecting is priceless.

Yes, the turmoil in this country is tearing us apart.  There are two distinct sides, about the only thing left that is easily distinguishable in these days.  The teachers unions?  Obviously on the side of the Leftist radicals.  They don't truly care about the kids, but themselves, if they are against them coming back to school.  They are against alternative options to send kids to charter schools, and probably homeschooling, which is another viable option for some parents.  And the parents that can't go to work because their children are home all day?  Well, apparently, the Demonicrats are happy about that, too, since a bad economy could result in a Demonicrat win this November.

Actually, we can factor in the anger of parents that are prevented from sending their kids to school, and all of the other things that the Demonicrat governors, legislators, and local politicians are doing which will hurt these folks.  And if you don't see that ground swell of anger, then you are definitely either living in a cave, or worse, watching Fake News media (mainstream media).  As soon as enough people wake up and notice who has been gaslighting us for generations, I think you will see an uprising.  A major uprising; not in the form of violence, but in the form of a voting surge like you've never seen.  That surge will not be from the Demonicrat side as you are being lead to believe with the Fake News "polls." 

Well, at least I don't think the Demonicrats are going to be able to win, not if everybody knows what Joe Biden plans to do.  I really pray that this episode gets spread far and wide, with full-blown viral sharing.  If after you see this segment of the show, and you still want to vote Demonicrat, go right ahead.  You probably won't be able to afford that vacation that was cancelled anyway because of the government shutdowns.  But the clock is ticking. There is not much time until Election 2020.  And I'm doing my best to spread the word.  I thank Dan Bongino for all he does, and all I can do is tell the few thousand people I count as friends, in my personal life and in social media, and that are supporters of President Donald Trump, and pray that they will do the same. 

Information is critical.  It is our counter to the gaslighting by the mainstream Fake News media.  Though it seems like it is sometimes, with some of the social media tyrants trying to silence us, it isn't exactly an asymmetric battle quite yet.  But, we have to unite, and fight back.  There can be no surrender.  Please keep that in mind for the remaining days until the election.

The Backlash is Coming ~ Ep. 1296 ~ The Dan Bongino Show®

From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:

In this episode, I address the explosive backlash brewing against the radical leftist destruction of the Republic. I also address the media’s purposeful coronavirus hysteria campaign. We give you the facts, not hysteria. We also discuss the disgusting attacks on the St. Louis couple who defended their home against a violent mob.

Someday, we will be able to come back here, and read these blog posts, and see all the things that have been happening this year, and that we are going through, and be amazed that we got through it all (hopefully!).  I'm in that position now, as my 100 year old dad went home to be with the Lord early Tuesday morning (July 14).  So, not everybody got through these times.  He was used to seeing me or my two siblings, and other visitors, several times a week, up until the Wuhan Pandemic began, and they locked down his nursing home facility back in early March.  Even with Alzheimer's, he was doing very well up until the lockdown.

When Dan is talking about the Martin County Commissioner conundrum, it made me think about what our family was going through, without seeing my dad up until they allowed us to visit him the day before Fathers Day.  Not being able to see him was obviously not to his or our benefit. While the nursing home being locked down was not a good thing for us, it kept the nursing home residents safe.  It truly was one of those situations where one option was the lesser of two evils.  We will always have to make choices that truly involve one bad option, and one worse option.  Unfortunately, in elections, we seem to be faced with that problem too often.  I would like those people that are not big fans of President Trump to consider what the other option is, and what it would do to this country.  Just sayin'...

SHOW NOTES for Episode 1296

Veteran suing NC governor over lockdown condemns 'hypocritical' leadership ~ Fox News Video

Michael Pastelak a veteran of the United States Army who served in Afghanistan is challenging the North Carolina governor over lockdown policies.

Axe throwing! Who knew! Well, I didn't, anyway. But what I do know is that the lockdown is hurting people in very big ways. Watch this segment from Tucker Carlson Tonight to see what Michael Pastelak and his attorney are doing about what seems to be very unconstitutional by the North Carolina governor.

New York Post columnist slammed city shutdown in blistering op-ed ~ Fox News Video

From the video description on youtube.com:

New York Post columnist David Marcus called out the risks of keeping New York City locked-down.

Before I tell you more about the Tucker Carlson clip with David Marcus and his commentary in the New York Post, I want to show you what Dan Bongino had to say about the story:



Yes, I snuck in that clip from Dan Bongino Show Clips.  (It's a nice little tool for bloggers like me!)  The above show clip came from Episode 1255 of the Dan Bongino Show, which I of course posted a blog about a couple days ago. 

Well, I think you will have no confusion about where I stand on this issue.  I think most of us figured that to keep us safe, we'd just have to lockdown, shelter-in-place, for maybe a month to 6 weeks.  I don't think anyone of us really thought that the lockdown would be, "The New Normal" (a term I absolutely despise!!)  I am so glad that David Marcus got his commentary on the front page of the New York Post.  I am glad that Tucker Carlson is talking about it.  I am glad that I saw the fantastic commentary on the Dan Bongino Show a few days ago (see above).

Yes, there are acceptable practices right now to keep people safe: Those most vulnerable, especially those in nursing homes.  Of course, Governor Andrew Cuomo completely screwed that up in his state of New York.  Meanwhile, I am prevented from going to the nursing home to give my 100 year old dad a hug he needs and deserves.  Well, I live in Iowa, and Gov. Kim Reynolds is obviously doing things much better that Gov. Cuomo.  That I can tell you from my first hand experience.  My dad is still alive!

Now, back to Tucker's segment with David Marcus.  It just adds the fuel to the fire, that people really want these lockdowns ended, before cities like New York go down the tube. And before a great country like the United States ends up in the dustbins of history.

I know that most of us believe that President Donald Trump will lead America back to greatness.  But every day that is delayed just adds more layers of disaster, and eats away at that crust over the volcano.

The Biden Bombshell ~ Ep. 1257 ~ The Dan Bongino Show®

From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:

In this episode I address the explosive Joe Biden tapes, which the media is ignoring. I also address the disturbing reason Barack Obama targeting General Flynn for destruction.

Well, the mainstream media FAKE NEWS guys can ignore the Joe Biden tapes all they want, but we're not going to, are we?! That was not a question. It was a conviction of the desire to do all we can to make sure people know about the real Quid Pro Quo Joe Biden before November 2020. As Dan expresses so eloquently, how can there be a hoax impeachment for President Trump, but somebody that would become President, if elected, was seriously involved in quid pro quo in order to get an investigation of Burisma stopped, where Biden's son apparently had a position on the board and got paid with no clue about the energy industry. As always, Dan smashed through the lamestream media and Demonicrat spin of what Joe Biden did.

Now, the other segment that I want to discuss the most, starts at 25:28.  I have been very fortunate, I've stayed locked down for the most part, have had no financial issues because I'm retired and live comfortably on my income (actually came out ahead when they sent me that $1,200 check), and I've stayed healthy.  But, this is the segment that made me sure that I wanted to discuss, because some people haven't been so lucky. 

There has been a toll on my life, as my 100 year old father is locked down in the nursing home.  He has Alzheimer's, but before all of this started, my two siblings and I were visiting him regularly.  We played a game called "Rummikub" with him, which really kept him pretty sharp.  Now, it has been almost 3 months since we've been able to be with him.  Unlike New York, our Governor Reynolds here in Iowa, has done an awesome job to keep the people in nursing homes very safe.  It's just that... Well, you know, we're praying that he will be able to recognize us, and that he is still alive.

But, see, there are a lot of things that this virus has been doing to our lives, and just about all of us have been affected in one or another!  I am so very glad that Dan talks about this from time to time, and I thought today's segment on it is very important to see.  So many people going through financial ruin, not able to get back to work, or run their businesses, where states have not allowed it.  And as Dan has been saying, as I have been writing, many of the states that are suffering the most are - ready for this? - controlled by the Demonicrat party.  And like Dan says, a lot of this is just because the President's opponents, the Demonicrats, want to hurt President Trump.  That is the saddest point of this all. 

And you know what?  I stand with Dan on this issue.  I'm not going to give the government my consent to destroy so many lives just so they can regain power.  Really, God forbid that ever happens again.  I think that Dan Bongino gives us the knowledge to know the kind of things that the Demonicrats are capable of doing, and not just their lust for power, but also to preserve Obama's legacy.  That's damn scary.

Just a footnote here, but it is important.  And makes me very, very happy!  Hallelujah!  I think President Donald Trump did something extremely important today, probably came out after Dan did this episode.  He expressed today that houses of worship ARE essential, and should open, and that if any governor doesn't allow it, he will override their decisions.

Patron Detained, Owners Cited at NJ Gym That Defied Coronavirus Shutdown | NBC10 Philadelphia

Remember that awesome video I posted here the other day, about the Bellmawr police officer with the big heart? It seems that it didn't go over too well at the Governor's office, they weren't too pleased.

Bellmawr police issued citations to the owners of Atilis Gym for defying the governor's stay at home order. They also detained a gym member who was working out Tuesday.

I had posted a good, positive story about the way the police handled the Atilis Gym opening in Bellmawr, New Jersey. That sure was a nice, heartwarming story, wasn't it? Well, that was until we found out that shortly after that quaint scene, they let the hounds loose on the people. And I'm sorry, I got sucked in, to make it look like We the People were going to overcome the lockdowns, and let them know that we still expect the government to abide by the Constitution. And that the Blue was going to back us up. Oops. Guess not..

Well, hopefully that will change, for real. I am so sad if yesterday's video was just for show.  We need to know that law enforcement officers will honor their oath to defend our Constitution.  We need them to tell these little totalitarian Governors and mayors of our major cities that they won't do their bidding when it is against the Constitution. 

New Jersey Police Officer Allows Bellmawr Gym Defying Lockdown to Reopen ~ Video

From the Youtube page for THE BALLERS LIFE:

Police officers were met with applause and chants of “USA” after they allowed a gym in Bellmawr, New Jersey, to continue operating on Monday, May 18, despite state lockdown orders.

Atilis Gym co-owner Ian Smith announced in a May 11 Facebook video that the facility would resume operations on May 18 “under the strictest measures.” Smith criticized the closure of nonessential businesses, saying “the danger of the virus had been largely overestimated.”

According to Johns Hopkins University, 10,363 people in New Jersey have died from COVID-19, the second-highest death rate of any US state (after New York).

Atilis Gym said new regulations include operating at 20 percent capacity, taking temperatures upon entry, and making hand sanitizer available, among other guidelines. The gym also said members in the facility must wear a mask “unless you are in the middle of your set.”

This video, filmed on May 18, shows an officer giving the OK for Atilis Gym to reopen, prompting demonstrators to cheer and break into chanting.

“Normally, you are all in violation of the executive order. On that note, have a good day, everybody be safe,” the officer says as the crowd erupts in applause.

Atilis Gym co-owner Frank Trumbetti said in a May 13 Facebook video that the reopening was planned to “fight for our rights.” An emotional Trumbetti also said in the video that his mother tested positive for the coronavirus in early May.

He said as of May 13, his mom was “nonresponsive” in the hospital and under do-not-resuscitate and do-not-intubate orders.

“Trust me when I say, I probably take this more seriously than probably almost anybody you know,” Trumbetti said in the video. Credit: @proteinnpop

This police officer deserves the Presidential Medal of Freedom for what he does here!  Yes, this gave me goosebumps, especially after what I wrote and worked on this weekend, in my post, "The Independence Day I Dream Of! ~ Video by Mad Liberals."

And now, there is the judge who declared that Oregon Gov. Brown's coronavirus restrictions are 'null and void'!  Meanwhile, a Federal judge ruled that the North Carolina governor’s coronavirus restrictions violate religious expression!

Folks, it's going to be happening all across the fruited plains of this great nation.  Yes, there are people that take the Constitution and our Bill of Rights very seriously.  Americans really do not appreciate being told to lock themselves up in their homes, and not have the right to freely worship, or run their businesses, though mostly with safety precautions.

I think Mayor Lightfoot in Chicago is going to be facing some problems after some of the things she has done with restrictions on even going to church.  That little dictator Mayor, along with Gov. Witmer of Michigan, probably should take heed to Attorney General William Barr's memo that states the following:

Now, I am directing each of our United States Attorneys to also be on the lookout for state and local directives that could be violating the constitutional rights and civil liberties of individual citizens.

So, here is the video that I found, thanks to @SimonRadio1776 And many thanks to THE BALLERS LIFE for posting this video on youtube. It will definitely give you goosebumps!



UPDATE: I believe I spoke too soon in regard to this story!

Don’t Let These Patriots Dance Alone ~ Ep. 1244 ~ The Dan Bongino Show®

From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:

In this episode, I address the disgraceful arrest and prosecution of a Texas business owner for opening her business and trying to feed her kids. I also address the disturbing story of the takedown of General Mike Flynn and I produce all of the evidence you need to conclude that the government has failed us. Finally, I play a terrific new campaign ad by the Trump team.

When I wrote yesterday, ladies and gentlemen, in my previous blog for Ep. 1243, I assure you that I had not seen this episode yet. I wrote something that was extensively discussed by Dan in the first segment of Ep. 1244. Here is a partial quote from what I happened to take from the previous episode, and what I was thinking:

Our future and our freedom are at stake. I'm afraid that we are approaching the tipping point, which is when we get to the edge of the cliff. If small businesses end, you can say, "Hello, Socialism." And, then, goodbye Free Enterprise.

I have no answer, other than to keep voicing our opinions. It is the only option, other than saying, "I will not comply."

Dan clearly read my mind yesterday when he was doing this Episode 1244.   In fact, for the past few weeks since I saw an episode where Dan talked about the video of the man dancing in the park, alone, and then somebody joined him, and then everyone in the park was dancing, I have been thinking about that video a lot.  It has occurred to me every time I hear about somebody being arrested for just trying to live their lives and feed their families. Before you start watching Dan's Ep. 1244, you need to see this...



Of course, I know you want to see what Dan has to say, as we now know that the William Barr DOJ has asked that the Federal criminal case against Gen. Mike Flynn be dismissed.  That's probably the best news I've heard since the beginning of the Wuhan Virus Pandemic of 2020 began three months ago. 

More good news, too.  I somehow found writing these blogs again, on January 20, 2020, here on Time2Escape, has had blessings that I never even thought of.  In my wildest dreams, did I ever think that there was a purpose, other than to just be more productive in my retirement.  Not working gets old.  Sadly, so many millions of people here in the United States of America, have found that out, too.  And even stranger, back last August, I started getting very active on Twitter, too.

I had found a friend on Twitter, a very bright young man, who had even started a church, and had a video channel.  I was watching his videos, and one day, I thought about blogging one of them.  His name is JJ McNown, and he may not know this yet, but it was his videos of his church services that got me through some rough times.  Unfortunately, his video channel, Fortis Media, was ended a couple of months ago, and all of the videos I had blogged are no longer there.  Truly sad.  But JJ was the person in MY life that was dancing in the park alone, and I went and joined him (not literally, of course!).  But, with his worship services at the Foundation Church Portland that I was watching, I found the purpose, and got up and danced, too. 

What I am saying is, when you watch Dan's video below, think about your belief that this nation can come back from this devastation, and what YOU can do to help this country, and the freedom fighters "out in the park dancing alone."  Please share this blog as much as you can.  Not to help me.  And, Dan could surely survive without the little bit of promo for his show from me.  Just thinking, though, what his message has been over the last few months, and how great it would be if my 11,000 Twitter Followers started sharing this, and all of my blogs.  I think how great it would be if somebody like Dan, who is so darn good at what he's doing, were to gain that many more eyes, so we can all be informed!  Wow!  Mind boggling.  Please watch and share.  You don't want anyone dancing in the park alone!

SHOW NOTES for Episode 1244

Covid-19 is a NORMAL FLU Season?

I'm really afraid to say this, but I'm going to, despite the fact that I'll be criticized. I know I'll be asked, "Have you no heart?" And why would I want to face that kind of criticism? I can just stay quiet. Say nothing. Be silent. Keep my thoughts to myself. And yet, I look at the current lockdown, and what it is doing to this great country, and how a beautiful, great economy, was destroyed in just a couple of months. Believe me, as soon as the NCAA basketball tournaments, including the B1G (Big Ten) tournament, were called off, I knew we were in for a big problem. At about the same time, the U.S. stock market tumbled.

At that time, I felt it was a big mistake, and I didn't even have the data that we have now. While watching this clip from one of Joey Saladino's podcasts, though, Dr. Dan Erickson told me that I was right. Wait, you may want to say to me, are you basing your opinion on what one doctor says? My answer? No. It is an accumulation of information and analysis of data that I've been soaking up, but actually caring about what we are being told, and asking myself the BIG question, have we been lied to? I still don't know for sure, but my thinking is that this disaster is coming to us in a way that involves our emotions, and the psychological trauma has been worse on us than the virus itself.

I actually KNOW that I am not alone in that feeling, or opinion. Well, I've seen the actual news where people are protesting, all across this beautiful country. They are doing it because their freedom is being eliminated. LIBERTY and FREEDOM are what we are fighting for. Not just for now, but for our future!

Ingraham: Let's start testing the data that justified the lockdown

From the video description:

First, we were told millions could die, then we were told those models were bad. We were told the virus was far more lethal than the flu. Now, we know it's likely to be closer on a really aggressive flu season.

How many times have left-wing Demonicrats, and even some Republicans, and their willing sycophants in the mainstream media, been wrong already? Remember Nancy Pelosi holding the rally in Chinatown in late February? Remember when they were all calling President Trump a xenophobe and racist when he stopped travel to the U.S. from China? And it was not President Trump that ordered the lockdowns. That was left up to the Governors, and some of them didn't act soon enough, or when they did, they went overboard and took away a lot of our rights (for our safety, they said).

The data has been skewed since the beginning. Now, with testing (when necessary), they find out that the lethality of Coronavirus was far less than they first suspected, not knowing that many more people had caught the virus than thought.

And one more thing. The long lasting lockdown. Enough already. And those "experts" at the CDC that are saying there could be another wave in the Fall... What do they know? Yes, I'm sure that wave will come just before the 2020 Election on Nov. 3. The CDC and scientists do NOT know for sure, and you can take that to the bank. They seem to always be wrong (chumps!). Just like everything else in life, there is no certainty in the future, especially with the Wuhan Virus Epidemicrat Shutdown of 2020. And I swear, if they don't soon open up the economy, I'm going to start using a word that I've coined: It is Faucism!

I'd rather count on what President Donald Trump says: WE WILL BUILD IT AGAIN!! That is something I truly can believe in.



RELATED STORY:
They Fell For the Hoax Again! ~ Ep. 1234 ~ The Dan Bongino Show®

Stop This Madness Now! ~ Ep. 1235 ~ The Dan Bongino Show®

From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:

In this episode, I address the outrageous comments by these two liberal lawmakers regarding the failed lockdowns. I also address new information regarding the deep hole John Brennan is in for his role in the Spygate scandal.

There is obviously a very good reason why The Dan Bongino Show is as popular as it is. He has such an amazing amount of passion in his research and what he talks about. This episode is a prime example of that passion.  Dan had my full attention, with the blinders on, right from the ringing of the bell by Joe.

The knives came out early in this episode. First, we get to see what a dope that Governor Andrew Cuomo is. The arrogance was seeping out of him like a very, very ripe banana being pealed. What type of person would say the things that Gov. Cuomo said to a reporter, on video? That a person can go get an "essential" job if they are unemployed? It's enough to bake my bagels, for sure. But then, Dan gets extremely passionate about the affects on people's lives because of the shutdown. Yes, I'd say, for good reason. Our bagels weren't just baked; they were nuked. Dan is right, that the people that made the decisions to close down our economy, leading to the unemployment of around 25 million people (so far); decisions that were not in the least bit thought out.

Well, look, I know some people out there reading this blogs don't always have the time available to watch all of the episodes, from beginning to end.  When Dan is discussing Spygate, sometimes, it can get very overwhelming, especially if you aren't familiar with all of the names of the people involved.  Long-time listeners of Dan have been familiarized with many of the players in all of the Spygate hoax to remove the President from office.  That being said, Dan has a pretty good segment about one of the major dirt-bags involved in the Russian Collusion hoax that you really don't want to miss.  You'll find out why it may be time for John Brennan, the CIA Director under Barack Obama, to panic.  Was Brennan the puppet master, as Dan asks?

Bongino to Pelosi: Get out of your bubble, people need to feed their families ~ Fox News Video

Dan Bongino rips Pelosi's response to protesters: 'Get out of your bubble, people need to feed their families'

Fox News contributor Dan Bongino reacts to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi calling stay-at-home protests 'unfortunate.'

Nancy Pelosi went on Fox News Sunday and told Chris Wallace that she couldn't understand why people are protesting in the streets. Surely, she couldn't have been serious, right? But she was. That is how out of touch that her and some of the governors are, not understanding that people need to be working, to provide for their families.

Dan also explains to Steve, Ainsley and Brian how China lied in the beginning, and is responsible for many more deaths than there should have been. The Chinese misinformation was malfeasance, and probably caused the deaths of many more people. Meanwhile, China used "identity politics" knowing that is a soft spot in America, and could easily find plenty of folks in the mainstream media that would talk about how xenophobic the President was when he stopped travel to China.

Dr. Phil's grim warning about mental health risks amid coronavirus ~ Fox News Video

Probably one of the most profound public service messages you will ever see, on any network. I give both the Fox News host, Laura Ingraham, and her guest, Dr. Phil McGraw, a "YUGE" amount of credit for putting this interview together as they did.

It wasn't that they just confirmed what I've been believing for awhile. The shutdown of our economy is going to have some devastating psychological affects on many, many people, and that will be a problem that will be facing us long after the virus has gone away. It is going to affect children, the bread winning adults in the families, and the retired and elderly.

Yes, thank you Lord, for leading me to this segment. And, not just for me to see it, but for knowing this was something that I needed to share. This kind of hit me, hard, when I've been thinking about the conflicting ramifications of what they are trying to protect us from. Oh, wait... What about the psychological side affects of having people locked down? Kids not in school, though it's probably cool, because you don't have to go to work because you're laid off, or if you're lucky, you're working from home.

If I keep ranting, and rambling on here, you're going to know that Dr. Phil's assessment of the psychological ramifications of the shut-down were spot on.
