From the Star Ledger:
N.J. counties, towns may order 8 p.m. curfew on nonessential businesses to fight coronavirus hot spots, Murphy says
New Jersey counties and municipalities now have the authority to order nonessential businesses to close at 8 p.m. to help slow the spread of the coronavirus under a new rule Gov. Phil Murphy signed Thursday as the state deals with a second wave of the pandemic.
The announcement came the same day new restrictions go into effect for Garden State bars and restaurants that limit the hours of operation for indoor service and also for interstate indoor school sports.
New Jersey on Thursday reported 3,517 more COVID-19 casesand 18 additional deaths.
“Municipalities and counties do not have to impose additional operating-hours restrictions if they do not wish to do so,” Murphy said after he announced his plans to sign the new executive order at his latest coronavirus briefing in Trenton.

Anxious to avoid chaos in the electoral college just months before the November vote, the Supreme Court ruled Monday that electors who formally select the president can be required by the state they represent to cast their ballot for the candidate who won their state’s popular vote.
The justices unanimously rejected the claim that electors have a right under the Constitution to defy their states and vote for the candidate of their choice.

Something extremely bogus is going on. Was tested for covid four times today. Two tests came back negative, two came back positive. Same machine, same test, same nurse. Rapid antigen test from BD.
I’m an anti-lockdown advocate, but if I was the Governor of NJ, I’d shut the schools down starting on Monday for 2-3 weeks. Similarly, State Govt offices and anything else government-related, because the employees get paid anyway. Also, time to extend DMV deadlines another few months and close the DMV’s except for certain, emergent items.
I’d probably also mandate that non-medical offices go on 2-week shutdown starting on late next week or Monday, November 23. And, I’d be looking for additional things to shut down for a short time, which would ideally be those that are least-disruptive to the economy. Maybe 1 or 2 weeks for gyms and bars, unfortunately.
I feel like these measures can act as a circuit breaker for some spread, especially since Thanksgiving is going to cause a lot of new infections.
Are any of you guys travelling for Turkey Day? I bailed on our family gathering. We’ll just do it at home with the same five of us. People are cray-cray, selfish and lazy in this country.

I took a look at the parler (not parlor morons) website. For a site that prides itself on free speech and transparency, it is trying as hard as it possibly can to hide everything at all about the company. You can’t even find the owner, the address or really anything about it.
Want to hear my conspiracy? Anyone who signs up at that echo chamber is putting themselves on the greatest LIST ever created for individuals who pretend to be patriots to profit off of you. I’m guessing you will need to change your phone numbers once the owner sells that LIST. I won’t sign up there, but I’m curious if they require a phone number and confirmation to join?
Any hate, I meant to say, free speech advocates want to answer?
“We have now proven social distancing, hand sanitizing and masks aren’t as effective as thought.”
This is NOT true. The latest research points to the exact opposite. Anyone who got in a car during lockdown and went to Shoprite (which is the vast majority) did not participate. Few locked down and socially distanced. Even where there are hand sanitizers at the entrances and exits to commercial locations, I’d say less than a third use them. Masks? Surgical masks do work. But not when you wear them on your chin or below your nose. Most will ONLY opt to wear them when required by the rules of the business, the school or establishment. In a park? Anything goes. In the street? Anything goes. Thanksgiving? Anything goes. We truly have TRUMP to blame for this.

Parler Will Not Allow You to Delete Your Account
To be brief: Parler requires the use of a phone number that you have to use to receive login codes as soon as you register. You cannot delete your own account, you have to email them. They do not seem to answer to answer those emails. The only way I was able to get close to getting removed was getting banned for a single post where I said I thought the platform was problematic, with no threats or harassment to individuals.
First off, yes, you cannot delete your Parler account with a push of a button. There is one mention of an email you have to contact in their Privacy Statement. When I contacted that email, I did not receive any response even after 24 hours. After that I messaged the support email to ask about the status of deleting my account, which are also unanswered. I’ve even stated clearly to both emails that I want my account removed, except for the ban information, and then I want to receive my personal information that is stored on the site as confirmation. Hours later still nothing.
I shot off a bit of an emergency flair. Some of the YouTubers I watch had promoted it, and the site has had the same ‘trending’ hash tags as long as I had been there. I had put in the top 5 hash tags and @’d some YouTubers that were promoting it with a message that the service is problematic in these regards. This message had no threats, harassment to individuals or groups or anything. Only that I did not want to be on the service any more, that I couldn’t get them to respond to me, and that the platform seems suspicious in a lot of ways. In a little over an hour, my account was banned, still with no response from support@parler.com or account.deletetion@parler.com in my email.
I broke one of my own rules to sign up as well. I normally like to use social media sites that allow signing in with TOR, save for Google and Facebook owned ones, and I use anonymous contact information to sign up. This is just for my own comfort in this day and age. The captcha they use stops TOR connections, and you have to sign up with a phone number where you can receive a login code as 2FA. You can later switch to an App, but they require the phone number first.
I’m going to continue on as long as I see that it’s worth it with them but, I’m here to announce that to anyone considering this platform as a freer alternative to Twitter, just don’t. It’s much worse on the problem of censorship and now you know that they will not give you any agency over your account once you sign up. All you’re allowed to do is agree.”
Hide? What is there to hide? It’s a tiny startup company looking to capitalize like any other startup in the social media space. They peddle in txt messages, no different that Twitter or Facebook. Some of the right-wing celebrities, authors, social media stars and now taking heads on cable tv are now bringing their audiences there for a stake in the company.
In the United States left- and right-wing activists both use digital and legacy media differently to achieve political goals. Trump got over 70 million votes, that means there is plenty of brand to market to a massive audience of social media users.
And honestly there is bias today in the existing platforms. We can all see that they have censored the controversial right-wing folks but not so much from the controversial left-wing folks, so naturally they have started their own social media to live in their own echo room.
No different than the monthly subscribers to the NY Times actually…
I hope all of you right wing snowflakes are enjoying your new safe space. Sign up your friends (suckers).
” Some of the right-wing celebrities, authors, social media stars and now taking heads on cable tv are now bringing their audiences there for a stake in the company.”
Wrong. They have tried to obtain stakes, but each have been systematically rejected. Email them and try to have your account deleted. You’ve been duped again. I can cancel my NY Times subscription in a minute, if I had one. I can also obtain it without giving up my phone number. I also know who my money is going to. For what it’s worth? You could be joining a multi-media site owned by George Soros. You would never know. If you are cool with that, so be it.
Turd – re: “You cannot delete your own account, you have to email them. They do not seem to answer to answer those emails”. Sounds like customer service from most big companies today actually.
This startup has a few dozen people at most, if they get the groundswell they are looking for from angry Trump voters then they will get a few rounds of investments. As far as I know none of the angels, or big boys venture capital investors have given them any money, as least none publicly, no talk of term sheets or vaulations.

I read somewhere online that the owner denied Dan Bongino’s investment, regardless of what Dan tweets. Seriously, and I have no horse in this race. I would be very wary about joining that site. At least use a junk email address. Even their profit model doesn’t make any sense. And you are right. They have 30 employees. Without bias, that site screams shyster. YMMV.
lib, it’s twitter that’s a safe space. Any thing that bothers their ingrained view of the world is censored. Enjoy China/North Korea/Albania, part of the reason that orange clown even gets 70 million votes is because the left is off it’s rocker and has gone all in on cancel culture.
Maria Bartiromo is a legitimate journalist so that is a very interesting message, this isn’t Hannity or Tucker who blindly repeat what the president says….
Lib – I see them no different than any other startup. A bunch of college friends NERDS apparently all for University of Denver are looking to make it big in the social media space.
https://www.linkedin.com/in/jmatze/
By the way, I just noticed three days ago that Dan Bongino’s know considers himself a strategic partner of the right wing-dominated platform and not an investor. Me thinks all of these right wing broadcasters love it for the free promotion and will continue to promote it (sans investment) as it allows them to speak to their audience without the censorship of Fox Broadcasting. Just as Sir1usXM was supposed to be commercial free, it will change once they sign up enough fools.

They have jumped to 8 million users post election. A drop in the bucket, it will take than that in subscribers before the VCs and Angels get involved.
Like I said. I have no horse in this race. Enjoy yourself in the world’s largest right wing echo chamber. I can only imagine the bullsh1t that is going to fester in there. Regardless, I still think you are all being duped something fierce by a huge opportunist in Matze who is simply preying on your commonality. A site that prides itself on free speech and transparency should not require 2FA access.
Lib – Social media influencers make their living by driving clicks to paying advertisers. No different than 20 years ago.
The internet if fickle, many of these folks Dan Bongino included won’t be relevant in the news cycle once Biden is inaugurated, the media will recast itself once Trump is out and the Covid vaccine is out.
What is next? Well even the Kardashians are retiring.. So who knows what will drive the eyeballs and clicks this time next year.

There is no doubt that the censorship on Twitter and Facebook is the reason for its success. I won’t behoove it of that. What I am trying to prove is that what people think it is, it probably is not. There is a reason to not trust this Matze character. He is no more creating this site so you can enjoy your full-fledged freedom of social media as Starbucks is serving $5 cups of coffee with a conscience. This site was meant to collect the same data Facebook and Twitter does. At least you can create a profile on both of those sites without giving them your phone number to sell. That’s all I am saying.

Maria Bartiromo may have to be deposed in the divorce case of the former Citi exec who got in trouble for flying her around on the bank’s corporate jet.

I never understood making celebrities out of these newscasters. Most aren’t paid much. None of them write their own stories. All were hired for their ability to read a teleprompter clearly. On Fox, having a decent appearance certainly helps too, especially if you are female. I suppose, some people admire how well the Hannity’s and Maddow’s can conjure up conjecture to make a nothingburger into a Big Mac. But intelligent people can easily smell their bullsh1t a mile away. So in conclusion, the idolization of newscasters (they like to make believe they are journalists) is as stupid as the people who choose to do so.
I worked with a bunch of PhD engineers. Very high IQ individuals. They worshipped Maddow. I don’t think intelligence matters as much as ability to leave politic bias out of your logical decision making process. I always say, if you find yourself even 75% within agreement that everything a political party says, chances are, you are not objective at all.

No echo chambers but information should be freely disseminated, put a blanket disclaimer that all this sh*t could be made up or could be real….We should not censor anyone…period. if you want to a take down messages promoting violence you can but it had better rise to the level that law enforcement is required.
On the celeb pastor’s house, who is paying 1.5m for that? Even 1.2 seems like a lot….I love evangelicals, only with evangelicals do so called “Pastors” live such a high life, they need to go read the bible again!

I can. A lot of the people I met in grad school came from well to do backgrounds. They may have been high IQ individuals, but they lacked common sense or any sense of the real world. They had zero street smarts. When we met up at a bar in downtown New Brunswick, they would do something stupid like park in the Rutgers staff lots and walk through the rough side of town to get to the bar instead of walking along well lit and well patrolled George St.

So, they are basically finding, down the molecular level, why so few people get severely sick. Genetic mutations within the genes that regulate the immune system. Had this been 1900, the disease would have wiped those mutations out. We are preserving them. Morally, obviously, it’s the right thing to do. But it’s also the type of thing that might lead to bigger outbreaks somewhere out in the future. Kinda like when they get so good at putting out fires that nothing ever burns locally, leaving more fuel until one big fire takes a large portion of the state of California out.
In an international study in Science, 10 percent of nearly 1,000 Covid-19 patients who developed life-threatening pneumonia had antibodies that disable key immune system proteins called interferons. These antibodies — known as autoantibodies, because they attack the body itself — weren’t found at all in 663 people with mild or asymptomatic Covid-19 infections. Only four of 1,227 healthy patients had the autoantibodies. The study was led by the Covid Human Genetic Effort, which includes 200 research centers in 40 countries.
“This is one of the most important things we’ve learned about the immune system since the start of the pandemic,” said Dr. Eric Topol, executive vice president for research at Scripps Research in San Diego, who wasn’t involved in the new study. “This is a breakthrough finding.”
In a second Science study by the same team, the authors found that an additional 3.5 percent of critically ill patients had mutations in genes that control the interferons involved in fighting viruses. Given that the body has 500 to 600 of those genes, it’s possible that researchers will find more mutations, said Qian Zhang, lead author of the second study.
Interferons serve as the body’s first line of defense against infection, sounding the alarm and activating an army of virus-fighting genes, said virologist Angela Rasmussen, an associate research scientist at the Center for Infection and Immunity at Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health.

BRT,
I wonder how the vaccine does for those few people with the unlucky mutation.
Rose Garden Total Landscaping (no roses left thanks to Mel)
My guess would be the vaccine is critical for these people. I doubt they would have a negative reaction to the vaccine itself. This would likely show itself in phase 3 trials if it did.

Unbelievable how many people are in restaurants. Picking up pizza and the parking lots of the sit down restaurants I passed are full
It’s very odd. Restaurants were hurting so bad all summer, and no one goes. Murphy gives the green light Sep 1st, and everyone who was scared sh1tless decides it’s party time. I remember riding my bike through town Columbus weekend. Parties and BBQs every other house. Now we have thousands of cases everyday, and no one gives a crap anymore.

Chicago, re payday on speaking circuit:
If Trump can get people to pay money to hear him speak, good for him. Though, I wonder if they allow all the 2A crowd to such speeches.
Just for comparison, Hillary was crucified for her speaking circuit work by Bernie, and I think by even some on this board.
My-pillow guy 2024?
Hillary speaking circuit was while she was running for the highest office in the land, often funded almost exclusively by corporations and foreign entities, under the guise of a non-profit. It amounted to payoffs prior to taking office. It’s not a coincidence that her cash for a speech dropped to $25k the instant she lost the election. Wikileaks showed they used money to spend on things like Chelsea’s wedding.
If Trump wants to have people pay admission to watch him mouth off, that’s his business. If he’s getting $250k from a big bank like Goldman Sachs or from the Saudi’s for a speech, that’s an awful look.
“Running for” doofus. She had potential power and then none.
Dammmn drink some more orange kool aid.
BRT,

As I said, you can’t fault a guy for holding events and charging admission. That’s his right. If he is going on the circuit and collecting money from corporations and foreign entities, that’s a problem.

It means big ideologically driven big money is gone. Transactional money remains but it ones results not ideology. TrumpGOPCult,Ltd has a shorter life than any one thinks.

Come back to my parents?….
“Republican party is completely lost, hanging their hats on this lunatic.”
I’m always confused when people state the Repubs are DJT, DJT has taken over the party, etc, etc.
DJT is pure expediency for the Repubs. Means to an end. Nothing more, nothing less.
“TrumpGOPCult,Ltd has a shorter life than any one thinks.”
This. Establishment Repubs (Romney/McCain wing) hate him. As do Conservatives.
When Trump is gone…Trump is gone.
No one, not anyone, is going to be shedding a tear.
More interesting question is what have the Repubs learned and who will take his place? Will this four year foray strengthen the Establishment wing? Or will the rising GenX/millennials be emboldened recognizing the future of the Party is really with a big tent (latinx, black, etc) and a better messenger could go much farther than Trump or the Party ever imagined with a similar message?
The Left would do much better to worry about their own Party. Smart Repubs certainly never wanted anything to come of DJT’s lawsuits…suicide pass for anyone in Congress plus they get the ‘benefit’ of the Orange Idiot for four more years lol….Much better to sit back and watch the inevitable internecine warfare rip apart the Dems…There are serious favors to be paid to wildly disparate groups and not nearly enough political capital to cover…..
I predict Trump will campaign in 2020 in support of Medicare for All, or M4A in short, effectively neutering the Democrats position.
Parler, Backed by Mercer Family, Makes Play for Conservatives Mad at Facebook, Twitter
The libertarian-minded platform aims to challenge tech giants through a focus on free speech; surge in users since the election
As Facebook Inc. and Twitter Inc have taken a harder line against unsubstantiated claims of a stolen presidential election, prominent conservatives on both platforms have responded with anger and a frequent retort: Follow me on Parler.
Launched in 2018, the libertarian-leaning social network was the most downloaded app on both Android and Apple devices for most of last week, according to data from Google and analytics firm App Annie. Its leaders envision it as a free-speech-focused alternative to the giants of Silicon Valley.
The platform also has some deep-pocketed investors. Hedge-fund investor Robert Mercer and his daughter Rebekah are among the company’s financial backers, according to people familiar with the matter. The Mercers have previously financed a number of conservative causes.

6:34 yawn. Conservatives can’t handle reality.
So the conservatives have their own safe space now?
Do they realize Parler is French for speak/talk? They might gag on their freedom fries if they found out.
Ex, HMB: I only posted apropos the discussion earlier about where the funding is coming from. I have no dog in this fight :-)
I just think it’s funny that the conservatives who started calling French fries freedom fries after France refused to take part in the Iraq war and mocked liberal college kids as snowflakes for wanting safe spaces on campus now have their own safe space with a French word for its name.
Conservatives are an easy group to join.

Trump could die tomorrow but the thought process of those who ideologize him isn’t going anywhere. They are part of the population of America and you need to accept that they exist. Or don’t. It does not matter, they do. And this goes for both sides as there are freak Demmies as well such as rabid Feminists that think all men should disappear. They should be stuck in an elevator with Trump and the power turned off.
Is safe space the right phrase? I mean isn’t it about having their content suppressed. They are not demanding that others content be removed?

Happy Diwali btw
Unless it’s Mr. Pillow, I’m not sure what company would pay Trump to speak. Perhaps some Klan chapters and alt-right groups might conjure up a donation? Maybe Goya? The list is awfully short IMO. No company, besides those in the conservative news circuit would dare bring him in. The protest both internally and externally would be instant. Trump is like the Odell Beckham of politicians. Pure poison.

Add this to my list of reasons for this decade of “BOOM.”
“Investors who bet U.S. consumers would keep paying debts this year are reaping a windfall as households spend less and save more against the backdrop of a still-ailing national economy.
Bonds backed by consumer loans returned about 10% through October, according to data from Citigroup Inc., making them one of the top-performing investments of 2020. Prices for the so-called asset-backed securities have soared as consumers bucked expecta-tions and responded to the coronavirus pandemic by paying down debt at a rapid clip.
“I don’t know if it will last but what’s happening now in terms of the American consumer, well, it’s downright un-American,” said Paul Norris, head of structured products at investment firm Conning. “We’ve had to throw out the playbook of everything we’ve learned about consumer behavior.” Mr. Norris has been adding consumer-loan ABS to his $20 billion portfolio throughout the year.”

The problem with right is that they can be drawn so easily into supporting fascists due to questionable grasps of their own masculinity. They look to a belligerent leader who will punish the LGBTQ community and destroy brown people who are to blame for their strife. Trigger happy crazies like Kyle Rittenhouse are heroes to them. Sick.

President Donald Trump has not attended a meeting of the coronavirus task force for 5 months,
reported The Washington Post Sunday.
With Trump taking no active role in attempting to slow the disease,
the number of new cases hit a daily record of 184,000 on Friday.
Have any states performed antibody studies recently?
“With Trump taking no active role in attempting to slow the disease,
the number of new cases hit a daily record of 184,000 on Friday.”
Really. Do Americans have working brain cells? Are masks not available? Are Americans not free to use them as they see fit? Are they unaffordable? Or hand gel?
It’s not just Trump, its your fellow Americans, like your Karens, who believe they have the right to do whatever they want however they want. Women who need lavish weddings in order to feel good about themselves then cause a super spreader event. Religions that gather together in large numbers. Families that throw parties. Women who walk into stores and spit on people.
It’s not just Trump, these are your neighbors, your spouses, your “fellow” Americans who believe in individuality and their right over the collective good.
I, living in America, and being around Americans for quite a long time have learned to accept that this is the way they like it here, so this is the law of the land. Americas legal system is a joke, so don’t expect much from enforcement as even they have shown they are willing to not enforce laws they don’t approve of, or even listen to rulings that judges make.
If you can’t accept this, you are living in the wrong country. Live and let live, and protect yourself as best you can.
There is a reason the per capita case numbers and fatalities too are half of what they are here down in Costa Rica. Sad. Really.
It’s not just a “Trump” thing, it’s an individuals thing. This is the reason that Lib’s 10k plan for everyone to stay home will not work, although in theory it would work quite well.
Animals are just going to do what they want to do, so many would not stay home but would pocket the 10k anyway.
Phoenix, you are right. I wouldn’t call this a partisan issue or even a mask issue. Fact is, my neighbors all hate Trumps guts and are proudly displaying their signs on their lawn still. That didn’t stop them from having movie night two weeks ago, with 15 cars outside, and half the people in the kitchen. But it’s all ok because there is a screen door at the kitchen and they have masks on? They remove them every 5 seconds to drink their beer. Consequently, they also held their previous movie night party March 20th this year. They are from New York and everyone coming in had New York plates.
The town I teach in had major issues with labor day parties creating dozens of confirmed cases because they thought it would be smart to have 30 kids in a garage playing beer pong. This was hosted by a parent. More recently, the cops had to shut down a major party during halloween. 100 high school kids drinking in a single house. That’s 1/3 of the senior class.
Yup. That’s America. The dumbest country around.
Was listening to Howard Stern yesterday. I’m a bit behind, so the show was from the Wednesday after the election. Wolfie was interviewing people in his mother’s nursing home. He gets to this one lady who calls it exactly like it is. She says Americans are puzzies today because they have never had to work a tough day in her life. She went on to explain that when she was a kid, they had to pick tomatoes to go see a movie. She said that lots of people had to quarantine over her lifetime, mainly for childhood diseases. She mentioned, polio, scarlet fever and the measles. If any family member left the home, the neighbors would call the police. This WAS the America that would make a Patriot proud. Now it’s just a country of selfish pr1cks who wouldn’t know what a patriot was if one smacked them across the face.
The next caller was an ex military sergeant. He had to retire due to PTSD from Afghanistan as well as a gay sexual assualt. He questioned why he fought for our freedom when people in this country won’t even wear a mask to go shopping. He talked about what sacrifice REALLY is. This Trump has done such immeasurable amounts of irreversible damage to this country. I question its ability to survive.
The rioting that occured after the parade yesterday is probably just the beginning of his true legacy.
I see this forum has plummeted into a bacchanalia of left wing m@sturbation. Three days of Trump sucks is the best you can come up with but it’s typical of you neutered souls. You lifeboat liberals are a bundle of sapphic tenderness, halfwits and imbeciles, cradled sucklings who love to gender identify but have no identification, who love to preach of totalitarian utopia, who believe corporations are evil yet government creates wealth. Go wipe your mouths and brush your teeth, I can smell the stench of your liberal discharge from here.
This Trump has done such immeasurable amounts of irreversible damage to this country.
What an asinine statement. Nine house seats flipped red on the federal level, scores more on the state levels and the lower courts, 18% of black men voted for Trump and the majority of Hispanics now identify as Republican. Trump gained more votes than Oblammy and Hildery and the Republican party has become the party of the working class. Trump lost because of the white vote, those bone-colored d1ckheads with rainbow yard signs… the same group that preaches unity only if it doesn’t involve their efforts, money or space.
Fast Eddie,
St. Ronnie is looking for you https://youtu.be/MDHqg_0DyXY
It could be worse, it could be St.John Paul 2, aka St.Pedo, but you are to old for them.
Number of votes comparison is meaningless, as more people (could have) voted this year. You gotta look at the percentages. Did he flip any state? No. As GOP being the workers party, totally BS. It may be small biz only, or angry crowd for the stimulus non-receipients. Go do a poll in a manufacturing plant, or a bakery shop, or Costco employees. You won’t see GOP there.
Soon, GOP will disown Trump. Wait for the flood of legal cases to cover up the lock-down news. Establishment professionals will not move a finger for such a loser.
Trump ain’t Reagan or Nixon. He will definitely cause a split in the good old party. But insisting Trump the symbol of GOP is immoral and wrong. Cruz, Ryan, Mario, Graham might be a better proxy for the party, but not this finger-triggered, tweetie crooked clan leader. I think if GOP puts a more rational, mild mannered person in charge like Romney, it will gain the popular vote next time around.
People who are sick should quarantine. Not sure of anyone here disputing that.
