The interior of the restaurant Balthazar in New York. All bars, restaurants and nightclubs were ordered shut by Governor Cuomo, effectively putting New York City under lockdown to combat the COVID-19 coronavirus. NYC, March 17, 2020.
People need health, but money too, and after 26 million people filed for unemployment in an economy that was the envy of the world just a few short weeks ago, President Trump and all 50 state governors now face a crucial pivot point, trying to balance protection of the public’s health with the growing urgency to reopen America for business. We bring on a trio of authors from LibertyNation.com to discuss some of the many tentacles in this crisis – Military Affairs Contributor Dave Patterson on the COVID fallout for China, and reports that North Korean dictator Kim Jung Un is in failing health, Chief Political Correspondent Graham Noble on how the pandemic has affected the candidacy of Joe Biden, and Legal Affairs Editor Scott Cosenza on states refusing to allow at-home coronavirus tests, one state planning to sue China, plus a rogue judge trampling on free speech.
