I saw this tweet the other day. It was genius.

Putting The Virus In Perspective
It could be much worse.
I tweeted a couple weeks ago that I wasn’t worried about the virus, because I’d already been killed by Trump’s election, the end of Net Neutrality, and the tax-rate cuts.
[Update early afternoon]
The Constitution dies of coronavirus.
It had a good run. The Bee has been on fire throughout this.
“Call It A Ponzi Scheme”
The pandemic may be the event that finally pops the higher-education bubble.
[Update a couple minutes later]
Florida State dumps policies on bias, ‘offensive’ language, ‘demeaning’ behavior, ‘inappropriate’ email.
But Ole Miss still requires on-line students to complete ‘diversity, equity, and inclusion’ training.
Absurd.
Gun-Control Backfire
This is hilarious:
I was chatting with a friend of mine recently and the topic of gun sales came up. My friend’s father owns a gun range near me and she said he’s seen a huge amount of liberals coming in to purchase weapons in recent weeks.
How does he know they’re liberals?
“They’re shocked to discover they can’t just walk out of the store with a gun.”
We’ve all heard about gun sales skyrocketing recently, but I hadn’t considered some of the tangential effects of the phenomenon until I spoke to my friend. Not only are many liberals suddenly learning to love their Second Amendment rights, many of them are finding out that the gun control narrative in this country — as repeated loudly and often by Hollywood and the mainstream media — is a complete lie.
But they were told by all the smartest people how easy it was!
That Woman Governor
Whitmer is being touted as Biden’s running mate, but that was before this. She wasn’t particularly popular as governor, having been swept in with the blue tide in 2018. So far, she’s been getting a boost from this, but I’ll be interested to see her polling in the wake of her petty tyranny. And not just her, but all such petty tyrants. I hope people will remember this fall.

America: A Roaring Giant?
Or a crying baby?
We’ve been the latter for far too long. We raised a generation of them. I hope this changes that.
The Coming Economic Recovery
The Republicans must not betray their base.
They did in 2008-2009. That’s where the Tea Party came from.
The CDC And FDA
How they wrecked the economy.
They both are overdue for a thorough overhaul, to the degree that they should even exist.
AOC
…is getting a primary challenge. I’m not sure I necessarily want to see her go away.
Blaming Europe
“That’s what Xi said.”
