Pennsylvania’s Governor Wolf and his Secretary of Health Dr. Rachael Levine forced nursing homes to accept COVID-19 patients. No fool is Rachael. She moved her mother who is in a nursing home into a hotel. Rachael knew how this bad movie was going to end. She only has to look north and east to her partners in crime in New York and New Jersey who implemented the same perverse policies.
But Wolf and Levine are not done yet. In order to deflect from their own stupidity they will have you outraged about the care the nursing homes offered. Even though the homes begged that they not have to take these patients. Add fuel to this fire is that many of these same nursing homes are the dumping ground of society. Medicaid patients. The financial reimbursement rate from the State has not come close to covering the actual costs of their care.The homes knew that they were not possibly equipped to care for these patients.
What to do? Why deflect attention. Go after them criminally… bankrupt them. Then where will these souls go?
Let’s follow the dots: (the sound increases when she answers the question)
Pennsylvania AG opens criminal probes into nursing homes …
Rachel Levine discusses role model status.
Last week’s solution for the nursing homes?
PA says no PPE for hospitals doing elective procedures.
May 5, 2020.
HARRISBURG ā The state has told hospitals it will not provide them with masks, gloves and other protective equipment if they choose to resume elective surgeries, as the priority shifts to nursing homes, where most of Pennsylvaniaās COVID-19 deaths have occurred.
Secretary Rachel Levine said at a state Senate hearing Monday. āIn the past, that has gone to hospitals. And we will give out to hospitals when necessary now, but the focus … is on long-term care living facilities.”
Levine said Monday that, while the state will still assist hospitals in hard-hit areas like Philadelphia, those that resume elective procedures will be cut off from the departmentās stockpile.
On March 20,Ā Levine ordered hospitals to cancel or postpone elective procedures… These procedures include heart catheterizations, joint replacements and colonoscopies.
I can vouch that the list of stopped procedures doesn’t even come close. All testing unless the patient was on death’s door was stopped. Cancer screening, eye exams. I could go on but you got the drift. These decisions will ultimately bankrupt many hospitals as well. On to government taking over healthcare and people will wonder how it happened.
What do the citizens say about all of this nonsense?
The rally Monday was organized by state Sen. Doug Mastriano, who says Dr. Rachel Levine hasn’t properly protected the state’s vulnerable older population.
Protesters call for Pennsylvania health secretary to step down
Yesterday I posted my experience of what life was like these days in a Pennsylvania retirement community in American Thinker. Wander over for a day in the life of living under the draconian rule of the democrats after they seeded these communities with COVID.
Marooned in No Man’s Land: A nursing home
Because this is an over 55 retirement community, it comes complete with what is called continuing care, home care, assisted living, and what is known as a nursing home.Ā Ā All the mandates the government imposed on nursing homes fell upon the entire community as well as the retirement management wanting to keep us “safe,” they say.
I can be charitable and say what is being done is in our best interest.Ā Ā If not, I can say it is a cruel measure being perpetrated upon the voiceless.
Other than this all is well in the swamp.

I believe New York and New Jersey also forced nursing homes to take COVID-19 patients as well and it let to many more deaths. To now blame the homes is maddening and she had to have known what this decision was going to do or else she would have left her mother there if there was no danger. Stories like this just drive me insane!

As a child, I lived in Williamsport and maternal cousins still live there and in Muncy Valley, but I am completely unfamiliar with PA politics. I have no idea what Tom Corbett did to lose confidence from the electorate, but I can say that anyone reading Tom Yorkās resume would come away with a good impression of the man. When we vote for governor or president, we never know who that person will select to serve as cabinet officials, and in every election, we subject ourselves to great risk of cabinet-level appointments, and this is the situation with Gov. Wolf. Honestly, given all we know about the psychological dysfunction of gender-confused persons, particularly those making transsexual migration, why any rational politician would appoint them to a high-level cabinet position. Mentally, they are not suitable for any level of responsibility much less one as critical as state health secretary. Wolf appointed someone as health secretary who is about as unhealthy as once can possibly be and a less refined person would ask, WTF?
Before making my second point, have you ever noticed that I never seem to run out of words?
The only place for Levine is in the trash pile and I would dearly love to hear Wolfās explanation as to why, out of all the qualified medical doctors in the state of Pennsylvania, why he would intentionally choose a mentally warped person to serve there. If he tells me āto achieve cabinet-level diversity,ā that would be enough for me not to vote for Wolf. Now, of course, all Pennsylvanians are subject to a looney tunes as health secretary and are suffering the consequences of Wolfās decision. Now, if this happened to involve the stock market, Levine would be guilty of insider trading … instead, we simply get a glimpse of the true Democrat: rules for me and my mother, rules for everyone else and their mothers. Bottom line, this is disgusting. I want to see tens of thousands of Pennsylvanians marching with pitchforks on Harrisburg … but that will never happen. Wolf knows this, and Levine knows this, too. The people, having cast their ballots, relinquish all their power until the next election … during which no one will ask the right questions of the candidates.

Let me see if I have this correct:
As background, we know that a doctor who was born with XY chromosomes and was educated enough to know that XY chromosomes would always make a person a male now professes that his taking female hormones makes him female (despite his XY chromosomes).
Additionally, this same doctor tells us to trust him (her) as the Pennsylvania Secretary of Health. When he (she) finds out that the Governor has decided to make the failed move of transferring COVID-19 patients to nursing homes (to take over the function of the Obamacare death panels or to reduce the number of people on the state’s medicare roles — only God knows), he (she) moves his (her) own mom out to a motel.
If I have these points correct, my questions are as follows:
Was this culled only from the online-only versons of the publications cited?
If it was published in print, did any of these articles appear before section F, below the fold, and on the back page?
Is this really COVID-19 news, since I have not seen George Snuffleupagus pontificating on this, yet?

Fracture Fairy tales:
Those of us old enough to have watched the Rocky and Bullwinkle Show in the 60’s can recall the one segment of the hour called fractured Fairy tales which pretty much describes what the left calls “Truth.”
So then the government takes over health care which takes over the nursing home industry and due to wholesale mismanagement and corruption the nursing homes, much like the the state run mental institutions of yore become financially unsustainable and are emptied. Soon the streets are overrun by homeless senior citizens along with our garden variety homeless. The states which could not afford to provide decent and sustainable senior citizen nursing home facilities find the billions needed to provide shelters, food kitchens and eventually 5 star hotel accommodations to accommodate the overflow of octogenarians living out their last days shoe-less and toothless in refrigerator boxes.
Fairy tale or the future?
Who can recall a time when it would be inconceivable that a trans-gendered beast like Rachael Levine would ascend to the position of a state’s Secretary of Health? So the question must linger in inquiring minds whether or not a man having his pee pee cut off is elective or essential surgery during this crisis in Levine’s tenure?
