Welcome to The World's Most Dangerous Beauty Salon, Inc.
My name is Susan DuQuesnay Bankston. I live in Richmond, Texas, in the heart of Tom DeLay's old district. It's nuttier than squirrel poop here.
I am honored and privileged to know Miss Juanita Jean Herownself, hairdresser extraordinary and political maven. Since she does not have time to fiddle with this internet stuff, I type her website for her and you can read it if you want to. If you don't, she truly does not give a big bear's butt.
A lot of what I post here has to do with local politics, but you probably have the same folks in your local government.
This ain't a blog. Blogs are way too trendy for me. This is a professional political organization.

Some letter of that after-life to spell:
And by and by my soul returned to me,
And answered, ‘I myself am Heaven

1The best comedy = “ain’t that the truth.”
In the era of the ***king moron* there have been an assortment of national ‘heroes.’ Some root for the hamberder, some for Messy with a pillow, and now this microscopic virus is expected to do what Moscow Mitch and Senate Republicons refused to do.
2NY BOE kicks Sanders off the ballot.
“It has a chilling effect on democracy as we know it, because the ability of the people to weigh in was stripped from them before they had an opportunity to cast a ballot.”
Remember how Bloomberg was let into the debates when he had virtually no polling numbers. It is unimaginable how short sighted and manipulative they are.
Re-election, brought to you by the Corporate Democratic Party and Oligarch vampires who own them.
Better off voting for Covid-19 for president.

3Coronavirus ‘Effectively Eliminated in New Zealand Following Comprehensive Approach of Jacinta Ardern’s Government
Hey! Just like US, er…
The country boosted healthcare spending to allow for contact tracing and enforced a nationwide lockdown in late March.
Edit: Five weeks after launching an aggressive nationwide lockdown to combat the coronavirus pandemic—coupled with one of the most robust economic relief packages of any country—New Zealand’s government on Monday announced that the new coronavirus is currently “eliminated” in the nation.
The country’s Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said Monday that while cases are not at zero, new cases have been in the single digits for the past several days—an “incredible” statistic, said Ardern, as other countries face thousands of new cases per day.
“We have done what very few countries have been able to do,” Ardern said last week as the country was preparing to move from a Level 4 restrictions to Level 3, allowing some businesses to reopen. “We have stopped a wave of devastation.”
One new case was reported Monday, as well as four “probable cases” and one new death.
“We’ve achieved our goal of elimination… That never meant zero but it does mean we know where our cases are coming from,” Director General of Health Ashley Bloomfield said.
As the country reduces restrictions to Level 3, businesses that reopen will be required to maintain physical distancing rules. Schools will reopen with limited capacity, and workers will still be encouraged to work from home if they are able to. Events such as weddings and funerals will only be able to take place with up to 10 people in attendance, and public buildings such as museums, libraries, and gyms will remain shuttered for the time being.
New Zealand has confirmed a total of 1,469 cases of COVID-19, the disease caused by the new coronavirus, since the first case there was detected on February 28.
In New Zealand, home to 4.8 million, the disease has infected about 30 in every 100,000 people and has killed 19 people—fewer than one in every 100,000 people.
The numbers in the island nation contrast sharply with those in the U.S., where nearly one million people have been sickened—nearly 300 in every 100,000—and more than 50,000 people have died.
