Ongoing coronavirus happenings

My experience would suggest that way too many bureaucrats have spent so much time being taught not to apply common sense or rational thought but to blindly follow the rulebook that when the game changes (as it has) and the old rulebook no longer applies, many are just not constitutionally capable of adapting to the new situation. Some are and they suddenly look like heroes, but they are just able to see that this is not just a different game, but a whole different kind of sport. Like trying to apply the rules of badminton to MMA. Not working out well.

In light of today’s bad (but inevitable) news, if you have a little bit of padding (like me) consider using some of it to support people trying to inject sanity into the House and Senate. Who knows, maybe we’ll get lucky and bounce out a few of Joe Biden’s “good friends”. Anything to make him sad, short of getting a Republican elected:

Well, they are extremely stupid and unqualified people, so it’s entirely possible in their case.

I guess we’ll just have to count the hours before states start sending mercenaries in to protect their legally paid for PPE shipments from FEMA pirates.

What Orange Shitgibbon is doing here is so unbelievably illegal and immoral that it could only happen in the dumbest possible timeline. And Moscow Mitch will do nothing to stop 45’s reckless malfeasance.

Don’t worry, Joe Biden will make sure that they all pay for their crimes.
