MORE, PLEASE: Iran confirms ‘act of sabotage’ at nuclear site.
EXPECTEDLY: CNN to broadcast 'fact' checks in lieu of the Republican National Convention this week.
THE BABYLON BEE anticipates California's next breaking news.
RED STATE: We don't need Hollywood squares at our convention.

And from the looks of today (so far), it doesn't look like we're going to get them....
'MY RED LINE': FDA official vows to resign if unproven coronavirus vaccine gets pushed.

Please do. One less arrogant know-it-all in government is a good thing.

President Trump has already spoken today. And will speak again every day.
CALIFORNIA BLACKOUTS: It's not the heat, it's the stupidity.

And in California there's no lack of stupidity. I've always wondered whether stupid came naturally or had to be taught.
GOODYEAR: On second thought maybe we were a little too progressive.
TO 'REGAIN CONTROL' PRESUPPOSES THAT THE CDC HAD CONTROL AT SOME POINT IN THE PAST: White House coronavirus task force coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx says ‘revolutionary’ coronavirus data system underway, expects CDC to regain control.
OBAMA TO TRUMP: Don’t use military as props; use them as footmen.
'HE JUST GOT BRICKED': Officer badly injured during Wisconsin riots, crowd cheers.

Start shooting the rioters, dammit.
WOW. JUST WOW. The farce is strong in this one. I have to wonder if this woman ever peeked out of her bubble to see what's beyond the unicorns and rainbows.
PUT YOUR COFFEE DOWN FIRST: You would need a heart of stone not to laugh. The Twitter comments are not kind (to say the least).
YOU WON'T PLAY BY OUR RULES, so we're taking our footballs and going home:
Two-dozen ex-GOP members of Congress move against President Trump as RNC is set to kick off.

Dozens of former GOP national security officials to back Biden, call Trump ‘dangerously unfit’.
Note the use of the words 'ex' and 'former'. If their competence had matched the size of their egos they might have amounted to something in the Republican party.
THE PUSHBACK CONTINUES: An open letter to Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and the Minneapolis City Council.
OF COURSE: Harvard Magazine doesn't like home schooling.

It's harder to indoctrinate no-shows....
