IS IT TRUE we would like for you to stop what your doing at noon today and join us in a moment of prayer asking God to protect, grant them wisdom, give guidance and direction.  and the power of healing to our health care professionals, first responders, elected officials, members of law enforcement and parents who are preparing to do battle against the Coronavirus-19? …prayer is power?

IS IT TRUE with the exceptions of the Surgeon General of the United States, Infectious Diseases doctors working at nationally-ranked teaching and research Hospitals and Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and his close associates it’s obvious there is a shortage of people with total knowledge about the transmission of viruses making off the cuff public comments about the Coronavirus-19 is astonishing?…if there has ever been a time for competence to step forward and charismatics to keep their mouths shut, this is the time?

IS IT TRUE that the founding CEO of the Growth Alliance for Greater Evansville, Joe Wallace has found himself in the spotlight with his new position as the CEO of the Coachella Valley Economic Partnership?

IS IT TRUE the reason why Coachella Valley is in the public spotlight because they are overly dependent on tourism and hospitality?…every spring event from the BNP Paribas tennis tournament to the internationally renowned Coachella and Stagecoach music festivals has been canceled?…the total of lost retail spending in the valley is estimated to be on the order of a billion dollars that translates into nearly $100 million in tax revenue for local governments?

IS IT TRUE last week Mr. Wallace was interviewed by the Los Angeles Times, the Wall Street Journal and most recently Time Magazine about the economic impacts of seeing these festivals canceled?…the economic fallout for regions that are dependent on fun and games will be much more severe than regions with a balanced economy?…even though most of the events have been rescheduled for fall, the immediate impact of layoffs and deferred revenue will be devastating to many people?…the reality is that it is just people that matter in times like these when negative impacts happen through no fault of anyone

IS IT TRUE we would like to respectfully request that local hospitals public relations departments send us current medical bulletins up-dates so our readers can be prepared to address future medical challenges created by the Coronavirus-19?
IS IT TRUE that The World Health Organization has finally acknowledged that the Coronavirus-19 outbreak is now officially characterized as a pandemic”?
IS IT TRUE one of the reasons why Coronavius-19 is considered to be deadly is because currently there are no known vaccines to protect us against It?
IS IT TRUE that the Coronvius-19 doesn’t discriminate against natural origin, race, color, creed, educational background, gender, blue or white-collar workers, religion, political affiliation, age, sexual preference, rich or poor, type of neighborhood you live in, or mental or physical challenges?
IS IT TRUE it’s projected that around 40 percent of Americans only have just $400 for emergencies?
IS IT TRUE in order for the health care professionals to take the Coronvius-19  head-on they need space, staff, supply, and systems?
IS IT TRUE that many people feel that the 2020 edition of the Evansville City Council has become extremely controversial?  …where is Curt John when we need him?
IS IT TRUE that Vanderburgh County Commissioners Cheryl Musgrave, Ben Shoulders, and Jeff Hatfield were responsible for co-sponsoring the anti-discrimination ordinance via the Human Relations Commission in 2017?
IS IT TRUE that Ellen Horan recently resigned as the Executive Director of GAGE to take a job in Texas?  …we hope that this “E For Everyone” group will not pay big bucks to hire an out town agency to find an out-of-towner to replace Ms. Horan?
IS IT TRUE when the people fear the Government we have Tyranny!  When the Government fears the people we have Liberty?

IS IT TRUE our “READERS POLLS” are non-scientific but trendy?

Today’s “Readers Poll” question is: Do you feel that President Trump is finally getting a grip on how to contain the Coronavirus?
