So has it started yet?? There are no entries on the live blog, so I’m assuming no, at 36 after the hour…

Now is a good time to watch Hairspray to get a few more ideas.

I walk every morning in the neighborhood and this morning it was a touch rainy. I need the fresh air to clear my brains.

The idea that Congress would support a massive giveaway in the months just before a major election is truly surprising. Such things never happen in Russia in the months ahead of the Duma elections. On the other hand, I would support this bill in a New York minute if it was named in aspirational terms such as the “2020 Act to Keep Coronavirus Deaths to Five People per Million”. (South Korea is currently at 2 deaths per million, Italy at 128 per million).

A good Busby Berkley number on the presidential stage would up the view-ability.

Thankfully, for me, horse barns are still open as “agricultural activities.” It’s not like they can close down anyway, since stalls need to be cleaned, horses need to be fed, and they need to be exercised and turned out for sunshine and fresh air. They’re pretty low risk regardless. It’s open air, no big groups of people, and being on a horse is almost self-enforcing social distancing.

That’s depressing…we need her, particularly as congress is being given the keys to the kingdom.

Time to strengthen Obamacare! That had the best death panels.

How anyone can watch these briefings and not be completely terrified is beyond me. Not about COVID-19 but rather the cravenly disgusting administration at the helm.

There was a story about one of his maids had to clean the make up off his clothes. And NO one was allowed to touch his makeup - but they had to make sure it was always in stock.

The article was not siding with the Drumpt but showing why the emergency unemployment funds had not been transferred to WA, NY, and CA.

Can they afford the lawsuits? They’d better have some deep pockets. I understand it’s a horrible position to be in, but not everyone who can be resuscitated is 90 years old and on their way out anyway.
