Head-ON With Roxanne Kincaid

We've been in a Constitutional Crisis since 20 January 2017. It got worse Monday night, as Corona Caligula declared his word is Law. We examine just what that means in its historical context. Now comes word that he's planning on having the Confederate States wage biological war on the states that are trying to flatten the curve and slow the parade of deaths.

What a mess! Trump melts down . . . some more . . . again; declares himself dictator of the U.S. What occasioned the tantrum? Two questions: Where do you think you get the authority to declare yourself dictator?" and "What did you do in February?" Also: the failure of Mitch McConnell to respond to COVID-19. 

For 15 April (Wednesday) Dr. Kevin Shanley and a deep dive into the shadowy world of Chinese governance.

A conversation with archaeologist and journalist Dr. John Roby on the humanity's relationship with plagues and massive cultural changes. The Front Porch gang dives deeply into primaries.

Sure, COVID19 is awful, but that doesn't mean everything else isn't awful, too! Remember the Climate Crisis? Yeah. News is out that based on global modeling (not the sleazy softcore porn modeling like the First Stripper did), there's a big species die-off in the future if we don't get our act together. Why does the doc who started the Hydroxyquinone fad look like the doc who wrote Corona Caligula's "health letter" a few years back. Why did Nitwit Nero go to Walter Reed at about the same time the DIA gave the White House its first warning about the threat from the virus?

An abbreviated edition. Thunderstorms rolled through, scaring our internet into running under the bed and hiding. It made getting the program out more than a little problematic.

A killer is on the loose. No, not the virus; rather the man who is using the virus as a weapon against the United States: Donald Trump, hoe of the depraved heart. With a Republican senate that was unwilling to stand up for the Constitution, our only defenses are to ignore him, excoriate him, and stay the hell at home.

We've reached a milestone as a nation where we no longer listen to people who've been trained to do their jobs. Medicine is a delicate practice and not one to be taken lightly, yet we're getting understudied and inaccurate information every day now from our leaders on how to survive a pandemic. I can't imagine what our Founders would be saying about what we now call our governing bodies except we're reaping what we've sown and the discord will make us or break us.  Let's work together and find solutions that will make history remember what our nation represents, unity.

There's almost too much to do justice with a brief description like this. Foremost, though, a single, simple word changed everything on Sunday. One word, uttered by George Stephanopoulos, accompanied by an utterly unconvincing "can't 'member" from a MAGAT and suddenly things make both more and less sense. With this gang, it's always the Nixon question: "What did he know and when did he know it." COVID19 is no different. Also, of course, the EVILgelicals have moved into full-on terrorism against our country. They're all over the place and they couldn't be more dangerous if they were wearing dynamite belts.

Even though we're in the middle of a Pandemic people still need people. We're a symbiotic species whether we like it or not and limiting contact isn't as easy as we might care to think it would be. We hope that here at The Virtual Center we can alleviate some of the stress that comes along with self-isolation and we can discuss some of the things that matter most to you. Your health, your welfare, and your liberty. Isn't that one of the aspects that made us a great nation at one time? That all individuals mattered? We still believe that concept and we believe in you.

MAGATS say the darnedest things . . . when they screw up and tell the truth. Lots of voters are bad for the GOP. Medicare for All is a lot more affordable than some might think. Emperor SoDumb the First says "No passports for you!" The idiot governor of Jawjastan reopens beaches. Preacher announces EVILgelical "Woodstock" for Easter Sunday. Talibama has COVID-19 growth rate faster than New York's. People are clueless about masks and no one in the Multimillionaire ForProfit Media is helping.

Happy weekend, everybody! Stay home, stay safe, wash your hands, wear a mask or pop a binky in your mouth if it makes you feel better.
