The data shows pandemic spreading into non-urban red counties.
The hundreds of thousands out of work and the untold number of businesses on the brink of extinction might be interested to learn that their lieutenant governor thinks they are just acting like privileged people.
It is surely an irony that Franklin’s spirited defense of democratic authority is now being reactivated by protesters who are lambasting elected officials at the urging of President Trump, who just two weeks ago was claiming, erroneously, that the Constitution gave him broad authoritarian powers.
Promotion of unproven drug resulted in millions of pills being delivered to cities like Milwaukee.
As partisan fights continue to cloud so many aspects of our responses to COVID-19, ensuring safe, fair elections should not be a goal that gets stuck in the political muck.
For perhaps the first time in American history, the people have consented to the literal definition of tyranny; arbitrary, oppressive power wielded with a solemn assurance that it’s for our own good.
The marketplace reality is sinking in that the re-opening of the economy has less to do with regulators at the local, state and federal levels than it has to do with customers.
His campaign is taking on too much water and we cannot risk another four years of Donald Trump.

The president can’t be blamed for coronavirus itself — but how he’s reacted to the disease has resulted in numerous deaths already.
Author and consultant Umair Haque suggests we all are idiots for failing to adequately confront Trumpism because we’re too busy, as he puts it, being selfish, self-absorbed, self-concerned and narcissistic.
Let’s follow the direction of scientists and experts and put politics aside, for we are divided at our own peril. Let’s put in place metrics for safety and care, protect our most vulnerable, and release our least vulnerable, the youth, to work and live their lives. Let’s open up and fight.
