Since reviving the daily White House briefing Mr. Trump and his coronavirus updates have attracted an average audience of 8.5 million on cable news, roughly the viewership of the season finale of ‘The Bachelor.’ Numbers are continuing to rise … On Monday, nearly 12.2 million people watched Mr. Trump’s briefing on CNN, Fox News and MSNBC, according to Nielsen — ‘Monday Night Football’ numbers. Millions more are watching on ABC, CBS, NBC and online streaming sites, and the audience is expanding. On Monday, Fox News … alone attracted 6.2 million viewers for the president’s briefing — an astounding number for a 6 p.m. cable broadcast, more akin to the viewership for a popular prime-time sitcom … The CBS News poll said 13 percent of Republicans trusted the news media for information about the virus.” ~ pictures today are from The Library of Congress. ~ selah

There was a little newspaper, with a big headline. “Exclusive Photos: Lee Harvey Oswald’s Bullet Hole” Yesterday, I was listening to episode 8 of “Catch and Kill.” Someone was talking about the early days of the National Enquirer. They mentioned that photograph. I almost fell off my stationary bicycle. I looked inside that 1964 newspaper. It showed a body, on a gurney. The head was covered up. I don’t think it was really Mr. Oswald. ~ @UncleHotep This is how terrible some of you people on the left are. You want people to suffer all due to the fact you cant stand Trump. He is literally just Obama with no filter nothing has changed in your lives. ~ The Peanut Butter Dilemma Natash Kiss my butt. You all always try to discredit black men. It’s a shame. You all are thoughtless, heartless and cruel. ~ @chamblee54 @bloggingheads @AryehCW maybe the fuck boys are trying to take fuck boy back as the term yes that they can like proudly you know March on the street and call myself fuck boys ~ This is a delightful article, about one of my internet hobbies … debunking quotes. It is written with a civilized grace that is missing in the nonstop screaming match online. There is one problem. @spectator does not link to their sources. The link is a terrific internet invention. It is like a double click footnote. Someone should tell @spectator about it. ~ @Ahmadinejad1956 “The WHO must immediately identify the lab that produced and spread the virus, as well as the other centers that supported the biological war against humanity.” ~ “and so we tell them wash your hands often in to present this to prevent this disease and I feel like we’re not being really honest with the people that the data and and we’ve looked at this very carefully really is about just breathing air and that’s a hard thing to stop so keep doing the hand-washing but don’t think that that’s going to stop this disease which you asked about the man to stop other stuff yes yeah asks there’s two kinds right basically the surgical mask which just fits over and the reason it’s called a surgical mask is because it’s loose-fitting just fits you know kind of ties behind you because weren’t worn by surgeons so that they don’t cough or drip into your wound and it was never made to protect you from bugs” ~ “I just brought some numbers we can serve ly estimate that this could require 48 million hospitalizations 96 million cases actually occurring over 480 thousand deaths that can occur over the next three to seven months with this situation so this is not one that to take lightly” ~ ‘I just found some white men to kill’: Man accused of killing 4 in Central California cites racism in police recording ~ you get into this kind of moral component where we’ve been talking about you know is it morally defensible if you’re a lesbian to you know not want to sleep with a woman who has a penis @katrosenfield @tweetertation ~ @PostCultRev It is literally cheaper to fly to South Korea from Los Angeles, get tested for coronavirus, then fly back than it is to just get tested for coronavirus in the United States. ~ @PostCultRev Replying to @whiskeybuttman Just google LAX to Seoul, round trip flights now are running less than $900. South Korea made testing free. Costs of testing in the US, if you can get it, is over $1300. To be clear, DO NOT DO THIS it’s just to note the insanity of our current system. ~ I had a phone once. When the battery started to go bad, it started to buzz, and would not stop. My grandmother used to keep her clock in the refrigerator, so she would not hear the ticking. That gave me an idea. I wrapped the phone up in a towel, in case it exploded. I put it in the refrigerator. A day later, it had quit buzzing. ~ When Kyra gets Beth an “enhanced emotional support” dog to help her get over her recent funk, the gift goes over a little too well. ~ @chamblee54 .@GlennLoury it is always fun when .@JohnHMcWhorter says something like this: “dammit I’m gonna say it I don’t care who hears it I have heard the word social justice” ~ At times like this, what we need more than anything are calm, rational, and trustworthy public officials on whom we can rely for guidance. Public officials and the news industry have squandered their believability through innumerable instances of lies, spin, shallow thinking, lack of transparency, and corruption. This has created fertile ground for sinister undercurrents of suspicion. Perhaps this is a drill to get the public used to obeying orders — a pilot test of large-scale social control using a virus for cover. Or maybe this is an actual emergency whose source is a mystery. Perhaps the draconian measures in Italy are, in fact, heroic. ~ @windienine millennial humor is funny for the same reason that Ulysses is difficult to read and I think that’s hilarious. ~ Given current events, it would really help police (and all first responders) if you could resolve your own petty disputes peacefully. If you do have a gun, please do not point it at anybody. If you _must_ point your gun at somebody, please do not pull the trigger. Thank you. ~ Mikhaila Peterson Retweeted Vanessa Spina, SNS @ketogenicgirl Dr David Sinclair has been researching a covid vaccine and has found that people who don’t eat a lot of red meat & eat a lot of carbs are susceptible to the virus. Please prioritize RED meat for heme iron & avoid carbs.

The porn star in question had an amusing comeback. @StormyDaniels Loving that Bill Maher is still butthurt about the time I was funnier than him on his show. You’d think that he’d have learned from the last time he tried to slut shame me that it doesn’t work. Kinda impressed that this time he was dumb enough to include the whole porn industry ~ A Closer Look at ‘White Fragility’ Theory So, research should allow us to determine whether white fragility is pandemic or hogwash or something in between. … People who write about “whiteness,” like DiAngelo, say repeatedly that they are talking about social structures, not about biology and skin color. But in practical application this distinction disappears: At the level of individuals and group dynamics, “whiteness” and white skin color become synonymous. Inborn characteristics rather than degree of participation in racist social structures defines a person’s social standing and the value of their lived experience or ideas. ~ @LADYBUNNY77 Just heard the news that a drag queen has been booted from @RuPaulsDragRace for pretending to be a female casting agent and forcing people to appear in a string tasteless, demoralizing videos. But wait! How can they fire the show’s host? ~ Things move fast on twitter. I spent all day on a movie set, and left my phone in the car. When I got home, #ElizabethWarren was not even trending. She was already old news. ~ @ninaturner was asked about problems with @BernieSanders She did not answer the question, but made a speech about “The President FDR” and “the spirit of” MLK. ~ “Digital blackface is basically the use of a GIF or meme featuring a black person by a non-black, most specifically white person. When a white or non-black person uses a reaction GIF or meme featuring a black person, in that moment they are choosing to metaphorically don the skin of a black person for the sake of making a point.” ~ You have to decide who you are and force the world to deal with you, not with its idea of you ~ @ihatejoelkim Whenever I see insanely broad generalizations about a group I belong to on here?

If you’re under any illusions that a Sanders presidency would not be hostile to Israel, now you know.” ~ @chamblee54 A bit of nonsense appeared on facebook last week. It was yet another essay about how “I am a liberal” Supposedly .@RealRonHoward wrote it The true author was @GallagherWitt is opie a liberal? @GallagherWitt For the record, someone named Ron Howard shared it on FB, then people began sharing it thinking he was THE Ron Howard (though it took literally seconds to debunk that), and now everyone is attributing it to the director. @chamblee54 In the time it takes to read your tweet, you could learn that @RealRonHoward did not write that piece thank you for your reply @GallagherWitt It’s a shame not many people are willing to take 2 seconds to check things like that. Especially now that it’s on Snopes and other fact check sites: @chamblee54 Thank you for leaving abortion out of your essay. I agree with some, disagree with some, agree with some but worry about the details. So many people say “it doesn’t matter who said it, I agree with all of it. On my blog, if you don’t like the text, look at the pictures. @GallagherWitt There was no way I could address abortion without making the post twice as long. @chamblee54 People are only willing to read so much I try to respect that Originally, I was going to do a point by point commentary. Then I realized that nobody wants to read all that. ~ @chamblee54 @bloggingheads @billscher Bernie’s loyalty to Fidel Castro has a curious effect on @mattklewis “he can’t seem just to fully shake” ~ Chris Richardson, 39, said he was not surprised that many black voters in South Carolina were unfazed by Mr. Biden’s poor results in Iowa and New Hampshire. He flipped the question around: Why would anyone assume they’d care? “Black voters know white voters better than white voters know themselves,” Mr. Richardson said. “So yeah, we’ll back Biden, because we know who white America will vote for in the general election in a way they may not tell a pollster or the media.” ~ @StormyDaniels Loving that Bill Maher is still butthurt about the time I was funnier than him on his show.

State Sen. Larry Walker, R-Perry, has introduced legislation to designate the pecan as the official state nut of Georgia, according to our AJC colleague Maya Prabhu. From the text of Senate Bill 396: The pecan is the only edible nut native to North America and is this country’s most successful homegrown tree nut crop. It is known for its health benefits; scientists have discovered that pecans’ golden kernels are good for the heart, with antioxidants and cholesterol-lowering effects. The pecan traces its origins back to the 16th century, and the name ‘pecan’ is derived from the Native American word ‘pacane’ that translates as ‘nut requiring a stone to crack.’ ~ The domestication of the pecan is attributed in large part to a Louisiana plantation slave known as Antoine, a master gardener who developed a method of grafting that led to the birth of the commercial pecan industry. By 1920, Georgia was producing 2.517 million pounds of pecans; half a century later, the Georgia nut had grown so iconic that organizers for the 1996 Olympics crafted Muhammad Ali’s torch handle out of pecan wood. ~ BS had an ad on youtube. It was played a lot. In it, he says “I have a SMWALL favor to ask you” That is the part that comes before I can click on skip ad. He sounds like one of those queens in “Paris is Burning” who are going to the “bwall.” Every time I see that ad, I like BS a bit less. ~ The word [liberalism] has drifted into a farrago of usages. You have to question whether it’s useful anymore. ~ comedy in a weird way is a spiritual pursuit for the person who’s making it because you’re putting together thoughts and ideas and you’re trying to get it into these people’s minds in a way that elicits a response that makes them feel good and the only way that you could really do it is you have to hit those notes you have to reach that that resonance you have to find that frequency whatever it is that works on them and you can’t be thinking about yourself too much and you can’t be pleased with yourself can’t be happy with yourself you always have to be analyzing … your ego will fuck this up if you let your ego say oh I’m the fucking man you’re gonna ruin this whole thing you have to you have to be aware of what this is like this this this ride requires you to stay within a certain frequency you have to stay inside that frequency as soon as you start going yeah everything’s fucking awesome it all goes away ~ pictures today are from The Library of Congress.
