AFTER MASSIVE BLACK LIVES MATTER PROTESTS ACROSS AMERICA, U.S. logs 26th straight day of record average case totals.
The seven-day average of novel coronavirus cases in the United States set a record for the 26th straight day on Saturday as officials and health experts watched nervously to see whether July 4 gatherings would increase the spread. The new high came even as the holiday kept some state health departments from reporting their latest batches of infections.
The virus continued to spiral out of control in much of the country, particularly in the South, as several states experienced record numbers of confirmed infections and hospitalizations. Florida logged another daily high number of new cases, while hospitalizations in Arizona set a record, and ICU capacity at the world’s largest medical center, in Houston, was exceeded at one point.

SIX WEEKS, SIX CITIES, 600 MURDERS: “The single most important domestic issue of our time is not the rising number of new people testing positive for COVID-19. Deaths have hit all-time lows…The single most important issue, affecting some of the largest swaths of populations in America, is the scandal the media ignores even as it explodes in our faces. In only six weeks, city after city operated by entrenched Democrats have seen a massive expansion in lawlessness, violence, and murder. Stunningly, many news outlets seem gobsmacked and mystified at how or why such an explosion of lawlessness has occurred.”
Just think of the media as Democratic Party operatives with bylines, and the media’s apparent lack of interest makes perfect sense.

FOX-11 L.A.: Koreatown man reinfected with COVID-19 after attending several protests.
Gabriel Lee works as an IT specialist at several hospitals throughout the Los Angeles area.
He says he first tested positive for COVID-19 in March, before the lockdowns began.

He said he tested negative several times after his first infection, but then tested positive again on June 19th after he attended several Black Lives Matter protests.
Lee said he wore PPE at the protests, but remembers feeling worried about the large crowds and proximity of people to each other.
“Everyone was so close to eachother, everyone was stuck on eachother you know,” Lee said. “I think about more than a quarter weren’t wearing masks, there were probably like 5,000 people at the protests probably, all I remember is at some points we couldn’t even turn around or anything.”
Lee doesn’t know if the protests were the source of his infection. He suspects if they weren’t it could have been from air circulation at any building he’s been in, or having to sometimes reuse PPE.
Leading healthcare experts, and all the best people tell me his re-infection was obviously not from the protests.
IS EARTH JUST A PALE BLUE DOT IN A HOSTILE UNIVERSE? Excellent question for this Sunday after President Donald Trump’s Mt. Rushmore speech in which he said, among much else in what may have been his best ever, “our Founders boldly declared that we are all endowed with the same divine rights — given to us by our Creator in Heaven. And that which God has given us, we will allow no one, ever, to take away — ever.”
Think about it: If we do live on what amounts to nothing more than a rock, then Trump’s claim may be a noble one, but in the overall scheme of things, it’s just a nice sentiment. Cold-Case Christianity’s J. Warner Wallace offers some challenging insights about why Earth is much more than a tiny pale blue dot among billions of others.
