THE NEW YORK SLIMES TIMES: "a slew of toddlers ,,, writing a feelings journal in crayon.”

RANDOM THOUGHT: The only pandemic in America is the stupidity pandemic. And Democrats are highly susceptible to the stupidity virus.

THAT WAS THEN; this is now.

It's Victor Davis Hanson, so read it all. Carefully.

WASHINGTON, D.C. MAYOR MURIEL BOWSER plans to add 170 police officers to the city’s force amid rising violence.

She might also want to reconsider having painted Black Lives Matter on 16th Street NW near the White House.

FANTASY ISLAND FAILURE: Pro-Sanders group rebranding into 'Pragmatic Progressives'.

I've got a T-shirt that perfectly describes the Pragmatic Progressive (Marxist) movement: 'Same Trailer, Different Park'. You would think they'd eventually learn, but with an average IQ below the idiot range, learning is very, very difficult.

I'll consider teleportation when it becomes available, but in the meantime the stores are 10 (or more) miles away and the only way to get there is in a personal car driven on a state highway.
