SEN. SHELDON WHITEHOUSE [D-RI] is still a jackass.

WUHAN FLU [CORONAVIRUS] UPDATE for June 6, 2020:

Same old, same old. Cumulative deaths are clearly flattening, and the daily deaths have been stable or declining for over a month. I'm thinking of discontinuing the trend lines because polynomial fits aren't really stable for S-shaped curves and have little -- if any -- predictive value when the 'S' begins to flatten.

Those Americans estimated to remain uninfected is down to 66.625% (good; it's an indicator of building herd immunity); and the death rate has dropped to 0.1016%, typical of an average flu season..

Georgia remains relatively stable. Newly reported cases are still increasing (increased testing?) and daily deaths continue to decline.

WUHAN FLU [CORONAVIRUS] UPDATE for June 5, 2020:

Same old, same old. Cumulative deaths are clearly flattening, and the daily deaths have been stable for nearly 2 weeks. Those Americans estimated to remain uninfected is down to 67.332%; and the death rate has dropped to 0.1029%.

Georgia is still stable. Newly reported cases are still increasing slightly (I still suspect increased testing) as the daily deaths remain on a slight decline.

THE UNIVERSITY: A thing I would like to defund.

SOLIDARITY: COVID-19 vows not to infect anyone protesting inequality.

THE RIOTS ARE NOT ABOUT GEORGE FLOYD OR RACIAL JUSTICE. They're about Trump and seizing power.

Correct.

"WHY SEND IN THE TROOPS when you can send in the clowns?"

AMERICAN GOMORRAH: Rule by Pajama boys.

WHAT? MINNESOTA GOVERNOR TIM WALZ announces the filing of a state civil rights investigation of the Minneapolis Police Department.

Minnesota is one of the few states I've never visited. I think I'll continue not visiting there.

THE DIPLOMAD: So, whatever happened to that virus thing?

WUHAN FLU [CORONAVIRUS] UPDATE for June 4, 2020:

Same old, same old. Cumulative deaths are clearly flattening, and the daily deaths have been stable for nearly 2 weeks. Those Americans estimated to remain uninfected is down to 67.762%; and the death rate has dropped to 0.10323%.

Georgia is still stable. Newly reported cases seem to be up a bit, probably due to increased testing, and daily deaths have been declining, now flat for nearly 2 weeks.

WUHAN FLU [CORONAVIRUS] UPDATE for June 3, 2020:

Same old, same old. Those Americans estimated to remain uninfected is down to 68.084%; and the death rate has dropped to 0.1033% (typical of an average run-of-the-mill seasonal flu year). Georgia is still stable.

LAW AND ORDER IS NOT A TV SHOW. It is the bedrock of civilization.

RANDOM THOUGHT: Some ideas for Democrat bumper stickers.

Democrats - the grievance party

Vote Democrat - it's never our fault

I'm sure there will be more to come.

SORRY, BUT RIOTS ARE JUST TOO IMPORTANT. Whatever happened to social distancing?

JUST LOOT IT: Nike releases commemorative shoe to honor looters.

The Babylon Bee starts the day on the right left foot.

WUHAN FLU [CORONAVIRUS] UPDATE for June 2, 2020:

The cumulative trend line has changed sharply, which basically means only that the short-term variations are unstable, which probably means that the data glitch of May 29-31 is still having an effect. Daily deaths are up today, but the 7-day rolling average remains stable. The death rate remains at 0.1036% and uninfected Americans percentage continues to drop, at 68.442% today.

Georgia is still stable.

IN PREPARATION FOR TONIGHT: Babylon Bee's guide to safe rioting.

MANDATORY SOCIAL DISTANCING: the greatest theft of all time.

Well, yes. Yes, it is.

POWERLINE: Rioters for Trump? Maybe not the rioters themselves, but certainly a lot of (formerly) left-leaning voters.
