the homicidal cult leader of "Jonestown Fame", when it came time to compel his hapless followers to commit mass suicide, he at least sweetened the cyanide with grape flavored Flavor-Aid; Donald Trump apparently expects his cultists to guzzle bleach like busted derelicts.

Look at Dr. Fauci's Face
That, is the expression a Man Wears when he is counting the minutes before a Military Coup Overthrows the Alleged US President he serves...Like He Cannot Wait for the entire Cabinet to face a Drumhead Court Martial at Fort Meade. Granted the photo is a month old, so you can imagine what Headspace Fauci is in now.

Oil Closed today at $9.06
it was underwater entirely yesterday, so $9.06, although it doesn't get you into the movies these days is somehow an improvement.
I wanna rent Harvard Stadium in which safely guffaw with social distance, after all my three favorite cohorts have been laid low, Texas Wingnut Oilmen, The F*ckin' House of Saud & Vladimir Putin's Petrocracy....
Or at least I like to think that anyway, late world on the street is, The House of Saud will somehow come out on top in the end.
It'd be funny though, if Putin had to furlough his Hackers...
As for the Texas Oil Wingnuts, they have a natural class of enslaved politicians at their beck and call, no doubt a new regime of subsidies will be on deck within hours.
Hell I may need a second job and a side hustle to pay for all this generosity to the USA's shriveled and shrunken overclass, hell I got cruise lines (foreign flagged), Oil Companies & Bailouts to Support!!
Hell why do you think I call it "Reactionary Socialism"?

If I was Joe Biden
I'd shine a solo spotlight on a sound rigged podium, with a neon sign behind it that blinks "THIS IS OUR HERO", and then invite Senator Sanders to don what the Roman's called "Triumphal Regalia" and then mount the rostrum acquaint us with his thoughts .
The Pandemic is ruining every single one of Trump's deliverables, this is not his "9/11", it is his Hostage Crisis, every day more bad news, every day an even more cringeworthy briefing. Meanwhile Joe keeps a low profile (albeit with regular pressers etc) and steadily gains in the polls while the President Rants and Falters.
If Joe was smart, he'd use this time for outreach to Sanders' supporters, giving the Vermont Senator a place at the table when the VP nominee is chosen is an excellent start. I don't think Sanders himself wants the VP Nomination, revolutionary leaders never run for "Vice President" of anything after all, but I do think the schism in the democratic party must be bound up and a Veep acceptable to the Progressives is a good start. The good news is, Joe and Bernie actually get along well, but the former VP is noted for his friendly demeanor.
If I was Bernie Sanders, I still wanna amass as many delegates as possible in order to put some pressure on the Party Platform, the Veepstakes is nice, but the Platform is the real ballgame for the Bernie-crats.
Joe won this thing on the strength of voters who were prepared to do anything, anything, to get out from under Donald Trump. Nonetheless Biden's short term goal is to arrange a soft landing for the progressives, this will be a test of his social skills, his acumen and perhaps even his luck.

You'd a Thought, Bob Kraft was the Second Coming Thursday Night...
the way Channel Five News was carrying on about the planeload of hospital supplies The Pats Owner literally had to sneak into the country from the PRC.
I don't care for the visual of anyone from the USA going "Hat in Hand" to Beijing for supplies like we were a Third World Country or something, but I then I'm the one who recommended last week that State Governors seek out foreign sources of PPE. So I can't fault Charlie Baker and Bob Kraft for reading the "Chimes at Midnight" and taking it's humble advise to heart.
But given the absolute lack of leadership from the White House, the States are literally reduced to a Hobbesian "War of All Against All", frantically bidding on dwindling lots of supplies while the US President basks in the praise of the "My Pillow" Guy.
So Hell Yes, Bob "Orchids of Asia" Kraft HAD BETTER be leveraging his money and connections to secure PPE for the Hot Zones! He can damn well spend all that loot he made off the Trump Tax Cut on three more planeloads of supplies easy, and still have plenty left over. I'm very glad he secured the supplies, but Bob Kraft is still an embarrassing entitled moral sink hole...tell him to get back to work, the Local Nursing Homes need more personnel & supplies!

Captain Crozier got a Rapturous Send Off...
from the USS Theodore Roosevelt, having been relieved of command following the publication of a letter wherein he requested of The Brass that his covid-19 wracked crew be humanely quarantined on shore. These are good sailors celebrating a good CO who put his career on the line for his crew, but in a larger more ominous sense, the crew of the USS Theodore Roosevelt are rendering a loud vote of "No Confidence" in the current civilian leadership at the Pentagon and more than a few of their superior officers as well.
That bares watching, and if I was the GOP I'd stop pretending I'm the best pal ever of our men and women in uniform...the USS Theodore Roosevelt sez otherwise.
