Italy: No respiratory care for Boomers!

As his department receives coronavirus patients who are terminally ill the focus is to allow patients to meet loved ones and communicate with them during their last moments despite the quarantine regulations. Other reports claim that, as the numbers of dead increases, some families find themselves unable to secure a proper burial for their loved ones.

Peleg said that, from what he sees and hears in the hospital, the instructions are not to offer access to artificial respiratory machines to patients over 60 as such machines are limited in number.

So, Boomers, Silents, and the “Greatest,” maybe open borders, the cultural enrichments, massive debts, abortions, and divorces, etc. weren’t good ideas, huh? Hopefully, we’ll remember that in the future. That, if not you. But, as a consolation, you did have Woodstock, the dope, and all those Les Pauls.

Italy to Go Hard(er) Right

Watch Italy to see how a country is supposed to protect its people. Go Salvini!

Italian President Sergio Mattarella is expected to sound out party leaders in coming days to see whether a new governing majority can be assembled in Parliament. If not, snap elections could take place as early as late October or early November.

Mr. Salvini withdrew his support for the government on Aug. 8, calling for elections, on the grounds that 5 Star was blocking policies that Italy needs, including infrastructure investments. Leaders of 5 Star have reacted by exploring the possibility of a coalition with the Democrats, a mainstream party that 5 Star has strongly criticized in the past.

Italy’s power struggle is a sign that Europe’s political upheavals have a long way to run. Electorates in Europe have become volatile over many years, but especially since the financial and immigration crises of recent years, which have weakened the credibility of established conservative and social-democratic parties in many countries.

Mr. Salvini’s tough stance against immigration and his rhetorical attacks on the European Union have helped turn the League into Italy’s most popular party, with support of around 36% in the latest opinion polls.

Where’s Richard Gere on all this?

Him, or his new “friends.” A row broke out between faded “celebrity” Richard Gere and Italy’s awesome Matteo Salvini. Gere spoke on behalf of Lucifer:

“We have our problems with refugees coming from Honduras, Salavador, Nicaragua, Mexico… It’s very similar to what you are going through here,” he said, accusing politicians in both Italy and the United States of demonising migrants.

Yes! Exactly the same problems – almost like an international plot or something. Salvini shoved it back in the “American Gigalo’s” face:

“Given this generous millionaire is voicing concern for the fate of the Open Arms migrants, we thank him: he can take back to Hollywood, on his private plane, all the people aboard and support them in his villas. Thank you Richard!” he said in a statement.

Perfect rhetoric but, seriously, the US needs neither more “refugees” nor “stars.” Interestingly enough, the ball is in Gere’s court. I expect he will shut up rather than put up.

An Italian criminal politician found out how serious the new leadership is about preserving civilization.

The mayor of a small town in southern Italy that became a model for immigrant integration was placed under house arrest Tuesday for allegedly aiding illegal immigration, a move that brought a well-spring of support for the mayor.

Salvini has his law. We have 8 U.S.C. § 1324. Time to use it.
