The coronavirus threat has been back on top of the news cycle ever since the narrative shifted away from covering the George Floyd riots and crime sprees. Yes, they’re still happening, but the left’s push to promote them has morphed in different directions. Now, the coronavirus is back on top in newsrooms and they’re attempting to drive the lockdowns back into the mainstream. Unfortunately, it’s working. Even Texas just announced a face mask mandate.
Two things are top of mind right now. The first is the face mask debate. Mandates for face masks are spreading again, and it’s turning more contentious. But that’s much less of a real issue than the second risk, namely the renewed lockdowns. The economy has been improving, so Democrats and even some Republicans are pushing to kill it again. They need to in order to have any chance in the November elections.
What they don’t want you to know is that drug overdoses are spiking. They increased, year-over-year, 18% in March, 29% in April, and 42% in May. Keep in mind, overdoses were in decline as recently as January. Now, they’re spiking, and this can squarely be blamed on the lockdowns causing depression, loneliness, and loss of hope for a better future.
I talked to Steven Manzo in late March, just after he lost his job at a Michigan bar.
2 weeks later he died of a drug overdose, his first relapse in years.

“By being locked in and shut away, we’re denying ourselves critical health care services and the economic and social dislocation from being shut down is leading to mental illness and suicide risk,” Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar told “Bill Hemmer Reports” in May.
“So this country’s got to get back to work. We’ve got to get back to school. We’ve got to get back to living,” he added.
On the latest Rucker Report, JD discusses the challenges that are facing people because of the coronavirus lockdown that are literally killing people. It’s the type of information the left is attempting to suppress, which is why getting this information out there is so important.
It’s more than drug overdoses. Getting infected by the coronavirus gives you a chance, albeit very small, of dying from it. But the economy-killing and morale-destroying effects of the coronavirus lockdowns are affecting tens of millions negatively. They need to end.
Drug overdoses are spiking. There’s the destitution caused by loss of jobs and businesses. Suicides. Crimes in general are rampant and murders in particular are rising. Domestic violence is spiking. The lockdowns are the reason for all of these.

American Conservative Movement
Join fellow patriots as we form a grassroots movement to advance the cause of conservatism. The coronavirus crisis has prompted many, even some conservatives, to promote authoritarianism. It’s understandable to some extent now, but it must not be allowed to embed itself in American life. We currently have 8000+ patriots with us in a very short time. If you are interested, please join us to receive updates.
Gifts for Patriots: Forget All the Woke Corporate Retail Gifts This Year
Let me put the disclaimer up front. I’m a patriot. This site believes in promoting patriotic companies, supporting America-First ideas, and disseminating the truthful news that everyone in this nation needs to read or hear. To that end, it makes sense that the companies we allow to sponsor us are patriotic, America-First, and truth-embracing organizations.
Now for the other disclaimer. Buying from the three companies listed below using our promo codes helps us tremendously. The offers we give our readers access to are the best offers available; even using Mike Lindell’s promo code gives the same discount as using promo code “NOQ.”
We know there are many conservative sites who offer similar or even identical promos. We are not the biggest, not by a longshot, but we try very hard to provide excellent coverage of the most important topics to patriots. We do it unflinchingly and often at great sacrifice; there’s a reason you won’t find Google ads or Facebook buttons on our site. We cannot rail against Big Tech if we’re taking money from them or promoting their products. I’m not going to throw stones at other conservative news outlets who are beholden to Google or Facebook. We have our own sins. Nevertheless, you know when you use our promo codes you’re making an impact by supporting an honest style of delivering America-First news and commentary.
With that said, our sponsors have gifts available for all price ranges.
For the very special someone needing a very special gift, contact Our Gold Guy. Imagine their surprise when they see silver or gold coins in their stocking! Or, you can treat yourself to the ultimate hedge in the Biden economy. As the supply chain crumbles, inflation skyrockets, and the other investments lose momentum, precious metals make for the perfect protection. Be sure to tell them JD Rucker sent you!
At $499, the Freedom Phone will help you or someone you love break free from the Apple/Google duopoly in the smartphone world. With promo code “MAGA,” you’ll save $50. It’s well worth the peace of mind of having a completely uncensored device with an app store that cannot be canceled.
Our good friends at MyPillow have gifts ranging from stocking stuffers to high end bedding. You can knock out a lot of Christmas shopping with one stop at their website, and you’ll get maximum savings on each product you order by using promo code “NOQ.”
Lastly, if you’d like to include us on your Christmas list, we’d LOVE if you sponsored us. Donations go directly towards helping us disseminate important articles and podcasts to the nation.
As patriots, we must stand up for what we believe in. That means we slow or completely eliminate our expenditures with companies who hate us for our ideology. Our sponsors are all proud to support the America-First agenda, which is why we allow them on our pages. Like I said, you won’t find Google ads here.
