He really doesn’t seem to have a lot of empathy.

Rush will forever be a part of the old world. The path he is on now isn't the most dignified one for someone of his standing to end a career or life.

Maybe he should shut off the mike and retire to his beautiful estate, and spend his remaining time with his beautiful wife, reminiscing about his many successes in life, while enjoying a nice brandy and his favorite cuban cigar - all things must come to an end, even the good things.

As humans, letting go is sometimes the hardest thing to do. Mostly you see it in movies.

I just got done with an online weekly meeting with my business. We’re (all 7 of us) just waiting to be released to go back to work. I found out a few things:

1) Washington state has a ‘snitch line’ so people can report anyone who’s doing non-essential work. How Gestapo-like...

2) My co-installer who got sick just before we shut down (2 weeks ago) and still came to work....turns out he had COVID. And yet, I didn’t get sick.

3) After the meeting, I found out my niece’s husband is likely infected as well. Was sent home to self-isolate and rest and told that if his shortness of breath gets worse, then go to the hospital. They’re only taking in COVID cases that require oxygen...at least that’s how I understand it.

Rush just called Trump incompetent....

Well, that radio blowhard had better return that shiny medal he received in January. You don't want to be receiving gifts from incompetent leaders.

Bongino was RAGING! He seemed barely able to contain himself.

No way I can listen to that type of stuff with as stressful as life has become for everyone.

Go have a drink, Dan, there’s nothing any of us can do about whatever it is that crawled up your rear end.

“Rush will forever be a part of the old world. “

Worth repeating.

And add Levine, Hannity, Ingraham and a few others who will no longer be relevant or impactful.

Prayers up for your relative.

So glad you didn’t get the WooWoo.

Lots of what Washington considers non essential going on in my ‘shutdown state’. I hear bulldozers/skidders working up the road. Clearing a place for someone who’s going to build a house. That’s the ultimate social distancing job herebouts. Sit in the bulldizer/skidder cab under the a/c and play your music all day long. LOL. Dumptrucks driving by, chicken trucks running, farmers cutting hay (yes, already). The only neighbors not working are the one in the oilfield and the barber.

I want to give the dude the benefit of the doubt and say that he doing what he thinks he needs to do to save the country.

Problem is no one has the answer at this point. There is no silver bullet.

We have a very significant problem occurring with the infernal Chinese Wuhan Red Death bio-weapon from Hell. I got to be honest, I don’t want to die from that, and much more importantly, I DO NOT WANT my mom dying from that.

She means more to me than anything Rush Limbaugh is vomiting forth.

Rush is spinning. Typical FluBro stat manipulation. Very sad.

That 2.2 million is the unmitigated maximum, and is arguably too low for a “let ‘er rip” approach. 60,000 is the low-end for the current mitigation effort. At this point, given the cabin fever even here among the people that understand the danger of this virus, that is very optimistic. Even with the undercounting going on in NYC and some other places.

But millions would have to die to satisfy some people.

Dr. Campbell says England CV grand total hospital deaths will reach 10k this weekend. That does not include home deaths. Yesterday’s “offical” deaths highest in 24 hours of 938 so, again, home deaths not counted.

England is finding out the antibody tests aren’t reliable so are demanding refunds.

Dr. Shiva is getting really, really good in his interviews:

(A shame he is running for the US Senate in MA, where he hasn’t gor a prayer.)

“Side note: Rush just got shut off again. No useful information, not entertaining, no reason to listen.”

I feel the same about Sean Hannity’s show on Fox. Nothing new, nothing useful, nothing entertaining.

Italy is wanting corona bonds to help play for their healthcare of the virus. Germany not wanting to fork over the money. Not likely others will want to pitch in, either.

Well, the gasping EU lasted longer than expected.

Such horrors this Chinese virus has brought.

Last Christmas, no one suspected would be... well...

I don’t even bother with Hannity anymore, radio or TV. He really is not able to pivot away from his prepared points at all, ever.

Tucker, I like. Thankfully, last night after Tucker, Forged in Fire was on History. Way better than Hannity.
