How To Shut Down Chinese Twitter Trolls
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.

The Constitution dies of coronavirus.
It had a good run. The Bee has been on fire throughout this.
Being Libertarian In A Pandemic
Thoughts from Eugene Volokh.
Our biggest problem continues to be a paucity of information. The old saying is that knowledge is power, and right now, we’re still pretty powerless in that regard.

Pandemics come and go, but medical masks are eternal.
“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.

NASA’s love is gone.
They’d gotten too cocky; it lasted far too long.

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!
Taiwan
I’ve been saying this for weeks; recognize it to punish China (and reward its own good behavior).

Related: Taiwan is exporting its coronavirus success to the world.

First link is fixed now, sorry.
The Campaign Has Started?
It seems too early for this. They shouldn’t be running ads like this until he’s the formal nominee; this could put the DNC over the edge in deciding to find another candidate.

Dump Biden: The Democrats want Cuomo.
They should be careful what they wish for. Before this all happened, Cuomo probably would have figured his best opportunity was 2024, but if Trump looks beatable by convention time, he may be willing to accept a draft.
