Ninety miles from the South Eastern tip of the United States, Liberty has no stead. In order for Liberty to exist and thrive, Tyranny must be identified, recognized, confronted and extinguished.
White House coronavirus task force member Dr. Deborah Birx was forced on Sunday to explain to Fox News host Chris Wallace that she isn’t President Donald Trump’s mommy and therefore doesn’t spend her every waking moment with him.
The explanation was offered after Wallace, the host of FNC’s “Fox News Sunday,” pressed the doctor about the president not wearing a mask at all times.
“Do you wish — I understand it’s a special case, everybody around him has been tested and obviously he’s on television — but both from a safety point of view and from a public messaging point of view, do you wish the president wore a mask in public?” he asked.
It was a strange question given that, as he himself admitted upfront, it’s not necessary for the president to wear a mask at all times because of the White House’s stringent coronavirus security measures.

Boating had been banned by the state during the coronavirus state of emergency, a ban that was only recently lifted by the state. Whitmer’s stay-at-home restrictions have been among the most stringent in the entire country, and she recently announced plans to extend the stay-at-home executive order until June.
An employee of a boating company described a conversation with Whitmer’s husband, Marc Mallory, in which the dentist attempted to use his proximity to the state executive in order to have his boat installed in the water before Memorial Day weekend.
Apparently, after attempting to slip to the front of the line as the First Husband of Michigan, Mallory was placed at the back of the line of the company’s projects.
The boating company had been apparently overwhelmed with a deluge of boat installation projects, primarily on account of the recent expiration of Whitmer’s ban on boating. The company itself corroborated the account of its employee, stating that Mallory had in fact contacted them with hopes of...
