The basic meaning of the verb ‘to reveal’ is something like, ‘to make known, to disclose, to bring to attention, to lay open.’ ... Saying that coronavirus is manifest of the curse, and that the curse is God’s judgement for human rebellion, and that God’s judgement for human rebellion is for bringing about his purposes in his free, rational creatures, does not permit me to point my finger at others, to declare their sin to them. It does not give me license to take to Facebook or Twitter and declare that God has had it with American ________ (fill in the blank). The point of giving this answer is so that I will repent.

What’s the No. 1 coronavirus hot spot in America? The answer, according to a recently leaked Centers for Disease Control and Prevention document: Columbia County, Florida. If you’ve never heard of Columbia County, you’re not alone. It’s as obscure as most of the other COVID-19 hot spots identified in the CDC document, as reported in a Yahoo News story headlined “Nine of the Top 10 U.S. Coronavirus Hot Spots Are in Florida and Texas.” A closer look at those so-called “hot spots” shows how public health officials too often use statistics to misinform the public about the COVID-19 pandemic. In this case, the CDC defined a “hot spot” as a county with the most cases per 100,000 population over the most recent two-week period. The metric is prone to designate sparsely populated counties reporting temporary spikes in cases as being hotbeds of coronavirus infection. It turns out that there was an outbreak at the Columbia Correctional Institution, a state facility that can house 1,427 inmates. That outbreak, which involved hundreds of prisoners, accounts for 54% of the county’s COVID-19 cases.

This week, our hero is Bill Gates – an American software developer, businessman, and philanthropist. Thanks to Microsoft, the company that Gates co-founded, personal computers went from being used almost exclusively by computer hobbyists, to being a staple in millions of homes and offices around the world. By helping to make computers available to the masses, Gates’ work dramatically changed the world we live in and made many once-complicated tasks much simpler. Moreover, global productivity increases enabled by his computers have likely added trillions to the world’s economy.

Talk about out-of-touch pols. According to a new Gallup survey, nearly nine out of 10 respondents — and more than eight of 10 African Americans — oppose having police spend less time in their areas. Yet Democratic politicians have been racing to “defund the police” all the same. The survey found 19 percent of the public wants cops to spend more time in their areas; 67 percent are OK with their current presence. Only 14 percent want fewer cops. It’s similar for African Americans: 20 percent want more cops; 61 percent are good with the current level. Just 19 percent prefer cops to spend less time in their areas. Among Hispanics, 83 percent want the same or more policing.

Mitch McConnell Crushed As Democrats Win On Extending Unemployment Benefits
Sen. Mitch McConnell admitted defeat and said that he will bring a compromise virus relief bill that will need Democratic votes to the Senate floor. What we’re hoping for here is a bipartisan proposal negotiated by the president of the United States and his team that can sign a bill into law and the Democratic majority in the House that can appeal to a significant percentage of Republicans in the House and the Senate.
