Liz Peek, a former Wall Street investment firm partner, writes on FoxNews.com Monday (Feb. 22) that the U.S. is now emerging from the plague, with the number of COVID-19 (Chinese Communist virus) infections and deaths down sharply, and the economy is rebounding. But the new Biden administration is covering up the good news about the Epidemic and the economy in order to push through the Democrats’ $1.9 trillion economic stimulus package and make a killing from it. Peek argues that the new administration also wants to take the credit for defeating the Communist virus from President Trump (Trump) and keep it for itself.
A translation of Peek’s article follows.
Joe Biden is lying to Americans. He lied about COVID-19 (the Chinese Communist virus) and he lied about the economy. We are not in the middle of a long dark winter, we are in the middle of spring in full bloom. President Biden doesn’t want you to know the good news. Why? Because you would be denying him and his fellow Democrats a fat, blank check for $1.9 trillion.
And, if the epidemic goes away in the next few months, then even the most blindly credulous Biden gang on CNN knows that it was Donald Trump who conquered COVID-19 (the Chinese Communist virus), not Joe Biden. Some radicals may even conclude that it was President Trump’s “Operation Godspeed” that performed the miracle.
Look at the facts. In recent weeks, COVID-19 cases have fallen by more than 70 percent, exceeding “expert” predictions. The number of lagging deaths is also plummeting. The supply of vaccine is increasing, with about 15 percent of Americans already vaccinated.
Dr. Mark Makary of Johns Hopkins University recently concluded in an article in the Wall Street Journal that the welcome drop in the number of people infected with the virus since January this year cannot be attributed solely to the end of the holiday season or the use of vaccines. It also suggests that the medical community has greatly underestimated the number of people in the United States who have contracted the virus without symptoms and who have developed immunity, he said.
Macari assessed the data and concluded that “the U.S. is moving toward very low levels of infection.” He concluded that the United States is approaching “herd immunity” and that “COVID-19 (the Chinese Communist virus) will be largely gone by April and Americans will be able to return to normal Life. Imagine being able to go to the movies, send your kids to school, or travel to see relatives without having to worry. Imagine being able to leave the masks at Home.
Biden doesn’t want you to indulge in such happy daydreams. Instead, he wants you to be afraid and stay home. At a recent CNN meeting to talk to people, when Biden was asked when the U.S. would return to normalcy, his answer beat around the bush. He began by saying that maybe by Christmas we’ll see progress, but then changed his tune and said, “A year from now, I believe there will be far fewer people who have to keep social distance and wear masks, but we don’t know.” Biden continued, “By the beginning of next year, during the traditional school year in September, we are unlikely to be in a much better position than we are today.”
So, Biden thinks we won’t be back to normal until this Christmas, February or September 2022. But, he really doesn’t know.
Makary isn’t the only one seeing good news about viral statistics. Data scientist Gu Youyang’s model has proven to be the most accurate in predicting the number of deaths from COVID-19 (the Chinese Communist virus). He predicts that we will reach herd immunity by June or July instead of April, but it will be soon.
None of these models suggest that we abandon all preventive measures. In fact, to make progress, people are going to need to continue to wear masks and maintain social distance for the next few months. But by early summer, we can return to life as it was before the outbreak.
Given that prospect, the priorities should be clear: We need to reopen our country. That’s the kind of stimulus America needs, not the $1.9 trillion in spending that includes $135 million to the National Endowment for the Arts, $750 million to address global health issues, $10 million to “protect Indian languages” and other irrelevant stuff the Democrats have shoved in. and other irrelevant stuff that the Democrats have shoved in.
Importantly, this bill has $350 billion to bail out mismanaged blue cities and states; and raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour would threaten small businesses that are already struggling. This is not the bill we need.
Since $1 trillion remains unspent from the previous bill, the Democratic bill is irresponsible. It risks Inflation in the short term and has the problem of devaluing the dollar in the long term.
We need to stop for a moment and let the current economic momentum move forward. People are eager to get back to life before the plague and have the means to do so. Even now, the rebound in economic conditions is encouraging. Retail sales, housing starts permits, and industrial production all exceeded expectations.
Economists who expected growth to be low in the near term are also now more optimistic after some weak jobs reports. A series of forecasts done by the Atlanta Fed’s GDPNow says the economy will grow 9.5 percent in the first quarter. We achieved these results even as important sectors such as aviation and entertainment, and some large states remained in lockdown. California and New York, which account for nearly a quarter of the U.S. economy, are still largely under lockdown.
Indifferent to the risks and oblivious to reality, Democrats are moving forward with a budget-busting “Save America Plan” hoping that Americans will not notice the good news about our economy and COVID-19 (the Communist virus). They don’t even mention the economic value of the bill, claiming instead that polls show it to be popular. Thus, they inadvertently reveal their true intentions: using the generosity of the taxpayers, they will be able to retain control of Congress in 2022.
There are people in our country who are suffering, and we need to help those people. We must protect those who have lost their jobs due to COVID-19 (the Communist virus) and businesses that are on the verge of closing down. That’s what the Republican offer of $600 billion in bargains will do. And Biden, who pretends to hope for bipartisan support, is ignoring this sensible choice.
Biden’s White House may be the first administration in history to cover up good news, not bad news. Either way, it’s deceitful.
