He claims legal authority, but that is not what the Constitution says. And Pence backed him? SMH.

This sounds like a “deep state” thing. But in this case it is Trump’s SBA changing the LAW Congress passed.

For those of you who say the coronavirus doesn’t effect younger people. And any underlying conditions this sailor may have had were more than likely identified and being treated.
To the Governor of Florida, who wants to open his schools (we all do want our schools open, buy the way. Just safely) because younger people aren’t affected as badly as others, may want to rethink that. Any parent knows that schools a day cares are incubators for infectious illnesses. Regardless of “herd immunity”. Plus, the health of teachers and other staff need to be considered before jumping the gun. Until there is a vaccine, we need be prudent on what opens when.

On the flip side, an opinion about return to normal and gaslighting

This was the next article down from Roberts’ last post about ending the lockdown. Interesting and a bit eye opening.

A question has been answered . . .
. . . Yes, it appears I will be boo-hooing every time I watch the last round of last year’s Masters.
Today should have been “Sunday at the Masters”, but that wasn’t to be. Major THANKS to CBS for running last year’s full Sunday round.
Hopefully, the MASTERS will be played in Nov. & Tiger will be able defend his title. Can’t wait!
M: Eight Reasons to End the Lockdowns As Soon as Possible
Six doctors share their thoughts on ending the lockdowns.
I expect Dr.s Fauci and Birx will persist in wanting more medical surveilance of the citizenry, but even that, it seems to me, is losing its aura of urgency.
Here is some clarity about the ABC News story on a November report about the virus outbreak in China.
Nothing nefarious, evidently. Raw intelligence in November, but it did not get into the President’s Daily Briefing until January.
In case you missed it.
The other day the editorial board of the Wall Street Journal published a scathing critique Trump’s daily “press briefings.” The essence of it was that he is eroding his own credibility with all the nonsense and that he should step back and let someone like Pence or Fauci run the briefings.
How did Bozo the President respond? Here is his tweet . . .
“The Wall Street Journal always “forgets” to mention that the ratings for the White House Press Briefings are “through the roof” (Monday Night Football, Bachelor Finale, according to @nytimes) & is only way for me to escape the Fake News & get my views across. WSJ is Fake News!”
Two salient points. This idiot measures success by TV ratings. OMG, better ratings than the Bachelor Finale. The Republic is saved!
And, secondly, it is clear that “fake news” simply means critical of Trump. It would be hard to find a major publication that has been more friendly to him than the Wall Street Journal, but there is that charge . . . “WSJ is Fake News!”
Kerry: Did Shoddy Science Shut Down America?
https://www.kerrydougherty.com/allposts/2020/4/9/did-shoddy-science-shut-down-america
I wouldn’t go as far as Dougherty does in her title to say that the science was shoddy. Instead, I would emphasize that too many people misunderstood the science, or misrepresented it for all the usual reasons. As a result, we are still dealing with Chicken Little thinking in too much of our public discourse.
The science says that herd immunity is the only way to stop the pandemic. I was very pleased, therefore, to hear the president announce yesterday that he is forming a new task force to come up with ways to re-open the economy. The move makes perfect sense, once you conceive that there are practical ways to manage the development of the herd immunity we need.
