Coronavirus takes toll on Capitol Hill
By Jordain Carney and Olivia Beavers - 03/14/20 02:00 PM EDT

The coronavirus is taking a toll on Capitol Hill, as lawmakers begin reshaping day-to-day life and scramble to try to stop the spread of the quickly moving disease.

For many, the matter is increasingly hitting close to home. There are growing reports that constituents have contracted the virus, several lawmakers have self-quarantined and one staffer announced they tested positive for COVID-19.

While most lawmakers did not publicly project any fears, many quietly questioned how long it will be until the first member of Congress tests positive for the virus.


Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) told The Hill that it “wouldn't’ surprise me” if a lawmaker contracts the disease, adding, “we are obviously very public figures, in touch with a lot of people, literally and physically.”

Senator Rick Scott is self-isolating himself among others we have heard about.

Even Tucker Carlson was apparently in that room.

"Now is the time for social distancing,"

You mean like liberals getting all those abortions, in Darwin Award fashion?
Like liberals turning homosexual or even transgender?  Like that "social distancing" which takes their genes out of the pool?
How about all the liberal abortions - a million a year?  Lots of social distancing there.
Atheist Leftists remain single at twice the rate of people of faith, so there is social distancing in many ways.

So, I am looking at this and saying it makes it look insignificant.  So who is gaining from Coronavirus hype?  Why would the President give Nancy and the Democrats all that money?  And if it is all a worldwide bigly hoax is the President in on it?  Is it the Rothchild's manipulating the World Economy?

Yeah, I am sort of thinking that Trump is going to be the villain, and victim of the Democratic attacks.  He is going to come out on top once again, and any criticism will end up being the best thing that had happened to him.  Meanwhile we all can't even find a pack of toilet paper.
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.
