We hear now from “The Damage Report” about how 20 million (!) COVID vaccines went missing under Generalissimo Trump – ugh...and boy, do I sympathize with John’s outrage (and happy birthday, by the way) on how we handled this, and Francesca is spot-on about countries that may be smaller but have a better health care infrastructure and probably would do a MUCH BETTER JOB than our prior ruling cabal didn’t bother to do – of course, assuming those smaller countries ACTUALLY HAD THE FREAKING VACCINE!...
...and I could probably fill up a whole other post with my issues with Repug U.S. Senator Ben Sasse of Nebraska (and maybe I will one day, including with some of what he says here), but yeah, Brian Tyler Cohen points out how absurd it is that Sasse even has to say that stuff here to defend himself against not “taking the knee” for former President Fergus Laing...
Update 3/1/21: Yep, as usual, Sasse talks a good game, but never backs it up (here).
...and David Pakman tells us that, apparently, Mickey D’s is fine with $15 an hour as a minimum wage, contrary to what that lunatic Lauren Boebert says of course, though it looks like the Dems are having a hard time getting it into a COVID relief package as noted here – gnashing my teeth as I read that...
...and today marks what would have been the 110th birthday of The Sainted Ronnie R (who, as far as I’m concerned, was the blueprint for the typical clueless Repug preznit unable to govern in good times as well as those of a crisis – see also Dubya and Combover Caligula), which means it’s also the 10th anniversary of this post (and wise words for the occasion from The Rude One are here); whenever I think of our 40th president, this song comes to mind.
