Several days after testing positive for COVID-19, President Joe Biden’s health status is quickly improving, White House physician Kevin O’Connor reported on Monday.
Great news! And President Biden didn’t even have to be helicoptered off to the hospital, like somebody else…
However, the President’s recovery will be yet another negative, along with successfully evacuating over 200,000 civilians from Afghanistan in record time, bringing down gasoline prices, and probably the Justice Department’s delay … or failure … to charge that former guy.
Honestly, my gas price has come down from a high of $6.89 about six weeks ago to about $5.29. But I still fill half the tank which comes to about $30. But it’s Joe’s undeniable legacy, along with a few other things.
This doesn’t fit in anywhere, way OT, so I’ll just drop it here.
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Senator Josh Hawley is “deeply concerned” that his newfound national reputation for cowardice is overshadowing his commitment to end democracy.
“People see one video of me fleeing like a terrified bunny, and they think that’s all there is to me,” Hawley told reporters at a press conference. “They’re totally forgetting that I’m also a guy who tried to overturn a free and fair election.”
Hawley admitted that, although it is tempting to stereotype him as “a guy who was scared shitless of a mob he had egged on earlier in the day, that’s just one side of me. What about the side of me that wantonly subverts democracy? That should count for something.”
“People are focussing on the totally chickenshit Josh Hawley and ignoring the lusting-for-autocracy Josh Hawley,” he complained.
Hawley’s press conference was cut short after a reporter asked a question and the senator ran away.
Looking ahead, the economy is currently cooling off — the decline in first quarter G.D.P. was probably a quirk, but overall growth seems to be running below trend. And private sector economists I talk to mostly believe that inflation either has already peaked or will peak soon. So things may seem less puzzling a few months from now.
No, I was tying to make a funny, but we who are paying attention can probably cite a bunch of his accomplishments without breaking a sweat. Number one, getting 7 million more votes than the Manic who Almost Gutted America.
