Goya CEO Robert Unanue’s public praise for President Trump immediately led to the predictable calls from the left to boycott the brand. However, this time, the left’s overreach may have backfired.
Tired of the overbearing cancel culture, shoppers started intentionally buying Goya products to show support for a brand that dares to stand up against the leftist opinion tyranny.
Data Confirms Covid-19 More Harmless Than Previously Thought: Much Higher Infection Rate and Much Lower Lethality Rate.

Anti-Lockdown Protests Show Success: Serbian Government Retracts Plan for new Lockdown

More Studies Show Hydroxichloroquine Helps to Treat Covid, Prompting Trump to Urge FDA to Act
As more and more studies show that the very affordable quinine-based drug hydroxichloroquine helps to treat patients with the Wuhan-Coronavirus, President Trump urges the FDA to act now to give Americans access to this useful option.
While the drug has reportedly saved the lives of numerous people, including a Democratic Michigan state legislatior who publicly praised President Trump for making the existence of the drug known, the FDA did not renew the emergency use authorization for hydroxychloroquine in June.
The stated reasons were lack of proof that the drug helps against Covid (despite numerous reports and studies confirming just that), as well as reports of complications, when the drug was administered in combination with the antibiotic Azithromycin, also known as Z-Pac. However, the complications are exactly the complications listed in the insert for Azithromycin (which include severe to fatal liver, skin and heart complications), for which an FDA warning regarding these complications has existed for a while. Rejecting a different drug based on exactly these complications occurring when administered together with Z-pac, which is known to cause them, is like requiring consumers of orange juice to be at least 21, because orange juice mixed with vodka has intoxicating effects.
It is important to know that hydroxychloroquine is so cheap, that there is not a lot of profit to be made from it, while proprietary antivirals have enormous profit margins. According to Wikipedia, the treatment cost to a patient using and paying full price for hydroxychloroquine is abot $25 per month as of 2020, while a five day treatment with Redemsivir is expected to cost about $ 2,340 (with a production cost of $0.93 per treatment).
CDC: COVID-19 is Close to Losing its Epidemic Status in the U.S. as Death Rate Keeps Falling
Read, Watch And Think for Yourself – You Might be Pleasantly Surprised
If you listen to mainstream media and Democrat politicians, you will get a gloomily distorted image of reality.
One example is how they portrayed President Trump’s speech at Mount Rushmore. If you watch, or at least read, the speech for yourself, you wonder what Democrats and journalists are referring to.

Donald Trump Mount Rushmore Speech Transcript at 4th of July Event
President Trump Delivers Inspiring Message of Unity During Independence Day Celebration
In his speech at the Independence Day celebration in Washington D.C., U.S. President Donald J. Trump delivered an inspiring message of hope, optimism and unity.
Pointing out America’s historic accomplishments, the president explained how much American heroes of the past have accomplished for our nation, the world and all of us living today.
Citing the Declaration of Independence, he pointed out that, as the Founding Fathers declared, we are all created equal and stressed that “we will not allow anyone to divide our citizens by race or background; we will not allow them to foment hate, discord and distrust.”
He listed and honored many American heroes, who have advanced our country in areas of science, military, athletics, technology, politics, justice and human rights.
Trump also named contemporary successes and provided inspiration for more American successes and accomplishments to come.

Why Democrats Keep up the Outdated Covid-Fear, and Force Everyone to Wear Masks and Remain Shut Down
As we are building herd immunity and despite the much reported “rise in infections” – which is and always was, inevitable and logical, the death rate continues to go down. This proves what people who did their research have known for a while: that Covid-19 is way less deadly than was feared.
Most people have realized by now that the Wuhan-Coronavirus can make you very sick for a while (like most viruses), can potentially kill you if you have a very weak immune system, are fragile and have other vulnerabilities (like the flu and most other viruses can), but that most people have little to no symptoms (which means the virus does not make them sick) and that this virus is no more deadly than many other diseases we have dealt with in the past (unless you count every traffic accident, heart attack and cancer fatality as a Covid-death).
Most people have also realized that shutting down businesses and forcing “distancing”, “quarantines” and other measures upon the entire population was a counterproductive overreaction that has cost tens of millions of Americans their jobs within just a couple of months. It lead to food shortages, exploding suicide rates and countless deaths because people don’t get medical treatment in time or at all, due to fear of “Covid.”
So why does the media and why do Democrats keep this fear up? Why do Democrat mayors and governors who, a couple of weeks ago, called upon thousands of people to gather (when they agreed with the cause), now double down on shutdowns and pass ever new petty restrictions and requirements to hassle and patronize everyone?
The true reason seems obvious when you look at November 3rd:
Donald Trump has been one of the most successful presidents in building an economy that has lifted up millions of Americans. Under Trump, minorities, especially hispanic and black Americans, have seen the lowest unemployment in the history of the United States.
Running against him is Joe Biden, who coerced Ukraine into firing a prosecutor who dared to look into his son’s actions at Burisma, and who has close personal economic ties to China, Americas most powerful adversary. Biden’s attitude towards women and children is likely not helping him either. His public statements in the last couple of years give reason to be concerned about his cognitive abilities declining rapidly.
So from a Biden-supporter perspective, having Biden in his basement (literally) and his face and mouth covered (ditto), is the best case scenario to give him somewhat of a shot this fall. Of course, this only works if it doesn’t look too obviously weird.
No wonder Biden wants to make these measures mandatory for the entire population, if he becomes president.
Forcing the entire population to behave in this irrational manner, makes Biden look less ridiculous. It also furthers the goal of harming the economy, which many Democrats believe is the best strategy to defeat Trump (despite it coming at a terrible cost for the vast majority of Americans, spare Jeff Bezos and the owners of Zoom).
It has, however, nothing to do with your health. Ask yourself: does it seem helpful to be touching a cloth in front of your mouth whenever you speak, eat, drink, can’t breathe, or it moves, and then touch other things with your fingers? Does it make sense to you that going to a rally with 5,000 people is safe, just because your governor agrees with the mission, but sitting at a bar with a handful of people, or in a pew with a couple dozen is not?
Don’t be surprised if your mayor soon says that letting children play with your leg hair or grabbing and sniffing a stranger is safe, while hiring people or having a police department or elected sheriff is not.
Thankfully, we get a say in this on November 3rd.
