You knew this was going to happen, right?

Yesterday, one of the first deaths of a Virginia resident from COVID-19 was a Christian musical evangelist who, believing the pandemic response to be anti-Trump “mass hysteria,” took his family to New Orleans to “wash it from its Sin and debauchery.”

Do not tempt Lady Karma. She’s a bitch.

The SEIU [Service Employees International Union] located 39 million N-95 masks and is immediately sending them out to hospitals.

The supplier has already sold some of the masks to the state of California, the Greater New York Hospital Association, Dignity Health, Kaiser Permanente, Stanford Health Care, Sutter Health and Los Angeles, Riverside and Santa Clara counties.

I need to scamper around and find my UNION YES! tee-shirt to wear when I sit on the front porch.

This right here is exactly why we need to national task force to run this stuff.  Maybe if they had higher IQ’s we could unionize the cabinet. But what ya gonna do? Hell, Ben Carson can’t find his shoes most mornings, much less 39 million much needed masks.

Alex Jones got another fine today for wasting Little Bubba’s time.  It just keeps stacking up.

Alex Jones, a conspiracy theorist and repeated loser of court battles, was ordered Wednesday to pay more than $20,000 in attorney fees after losing another appeal in a defamation case …

Attorney Mark Bankston, who is representing Heslin and other families suing Jones, told HuffPost in a statement that the latest victory for his client spells the end for Jones.

“It is rare to see a legal defense so incompetent and disrespectful to the rule of law that it causes a defendant to rack up $150,000 in fines during preliminary motions before even reaching trial,” Bankston said. “These fines are only the beginning. A far greater reckoning awaits Mr. Jones.”

Mark is working from home and washing his hands often because he has a 6 year old who is never clean. He can get dirty walking from the sink to the refrigerator.

Y’all, apparently Ron Paul’s big Trump pumped ego is also contagious.

A Congressman from Kentucky plans to vote “no” on the $2 trillion coronavirus relief package, which the Senate passed 96-0 Wednesday evening.

U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie, a Republican who represents Kentucky’s 4th District, also hinted that he might object to a voice vote in the House of Representatives, which would force all members to return to Washington, D.C. and slowdown movement on the bill.

Massie told 55 KRC radio Thursday morning he plans to reject the measure — which includes one-time $1,200 checks to certain individuals and $367 billion in loans and grants to small businesses — due to concerns over spiking the national debt.

Oh yeah, all of a damn sudden.

All those tax cuts to big corporations and billionaires didn’t bother him one bit.  But, give a family money for food and he goes in all six directions and threatens to expose everybody to a virus.

I dunno.  Maybe it’s got something to do with both of them having curly hair – maybe they stuck their fingers in the plug and fried their brains.

This is one of those stories that is by subscription only, but I managed to steal you the good parts.  It says to stay home.

It explains a possible reason why New York has 10 times the number of cases that New York does.

San Francisco Chronicle: “New York’s coronavirus outbreak has violently erupted over the past few days, and the state is now driving the national epidemic — while on the West Coast, public health experts are wondering if an early and aggressive response saved California from a similar fate.”

“California reported some of the earliest coronavirus cases in the United States in late January. And in the first week of March, California and New York were neck and neck on cases of COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus. But over the past week, New York case counts have doubled every few days, and the state now has 10 times the cases California does: 25,000 to 2,500.”

So the lesson here is:  Let’s pack those pews on Easter Sunday, y’all!

It’s not perfect but there’s no slush fund.

Two of our favorite little local restaurants closed down today.  I’m sad. One had the best hamburgers on the planet.  The other was Mexican food.
