Another of the silver linings of this is that it may result in a political environment for a massive reform of government schools.

Why Hospitals Are In Trouble
The current conventional wisdom is that they’re hurting because of the ban on “elective” procedures, but it turns out that most admissions are caused by the entertainment industry (restaurants and bars). Shut down all the purveyors of alcohol and food poisoning, and the beds are empty.
Patricia cut my hair last weekend with a Wahl electric clipper that I’d bought for ten bucks at Ross years ago, but we’d never used. She overdid it, and I look like I’m ready for boot camp, but she’d probably do better with practice and learning how to use it. I’ve heard Jesse Watters describe how his wife had learned to cook, and now I’m wondering how many of us will go back to paying other people to cut our hair and cook for us, now that we’ve figured out we can actually do it ourselves? Of course, I’ve never been a big restaurant goer, for reasons I’ve discussed several times here: the cost, and the nutrition. I’ve probably been affected by this as little as anyone.
John Brennan
…and the plot to subvert an American election. A Democrat plot.
Yes, I suspect that Durham’s investigation will reveal that he was a key part of the core of this conspiracy.
A Quieting Sun
Are we headed for a new little ice age? There is no scientific reason to think it won’t happen.
Cheap energy and free markets fuel wealth creation. Fossil fuels are the cheapest form of energy currently, for both electricity and transportation.
Matt Taibbi

Nice of him to finally notice, but where has he been?

An Open Memo To Barack
He really is insufferable.
The California GOP
Has Lorena Gonzales revived it?
That would be nice. Particularly if it can come back in a less useless form than has been the case for the past three decades, since Pete Wilson.
Facemasks
Pose serious health risk to the healthy.
It’s definitely a bad idea to exercise wearing one.
The infuriating thing about this is the inability of some people to understand that there are no risk-free actions, or to accuse people who think that destroying the economy is sort of a bad idea of wanting grandma to die. They act like children.
[Update early afternoon]
The uncertainties of mask use demand that no one be forced to wear them.
The Flynn Case
Byron York: The big thing we still don’t know about it. Anyone who wants to continue to claim that Flynn lied to the FBI should be demanding this document. Unfortunately for them, the available evidence doesn’t support them.

What is Joe Biden hiding?
I’m surprised that Stephanopoulos pressed him on this. Have the DNC decided that they need a new candidate?

How the Obama administration shattered the rule of law.
Though to be fair, they were only completing the job that the Clinton administration started.
[Afternoon update]
Nevertheless, Sidney Powell persisted.
In my book, she’s lawyer of the year.
[Update Friday afternoon]
Jonathan Chait’s cockamamie blackmail theory about Michael Flynn.
The lengths to which these toadies will go to twist themselves into logical knots to defend their Messiah Obama is breathtaking.
