New highs in Covid-19 cases and deaths for Dallas today, but hospitals not overly stressed.

This is what non-acute, endemic disease looks like. This is our future, and I don't think our political system easily survives this stress.

Incompetent and/or authoritarian regimes ALWAYS respond w/ nationalism & militarism when faced with an endemic crisis.

You're seeing this in China. You're seeing this in India. You're seeing this in the US. You'll see it in Brazil and Russia soon enough.

The spread of angry, peaceful protests into every American city and town is fantastic news.

THIS is political participation that the decrepit two-party system and their crony capitalists can’t control. wsj.com/articles/prote…
The broad-daylight mass political protests are growing. Most PDs are doing a good job w/ this.

The dead-of-night mass criminal lootings are shrinking. Some PDs are doing a good job w/ this.

Neither the Dems nor the GOP nor their media Renfields want you to think this is true.
The broad-daylight protests are spreading, and the dead-of-night looting is diminishing.

Neither the corrupt two-party system nor its media enablers want you to know this, because it’s the biggest threat to their survival in 150 years.

Deputy Treasury Secretary Muzinich used father as cut-out for keeping control of $35 billion asset mgmt firm that’s direct beneficiary of Fed credit support facilities.

Here’s your real looting. propublica.org/article/this-t…
There’s a simple way to tell if this was a bona fide transfer or not ... did Muzinich pay cap gains taxes on the “sale” of his stake in the asset mgmt firm?
"Another Muzinich executive, David Bowen, who manages one of the firm’s high-yield bond portfolios, said during a May 20 webinar, 'The Fed has been about as supportive, helpful, accommodative — whatever word you want to use — as anyone could imagine.'”

Here's your real looting.

Are we under martial law now? Cause I’m thinking maybe we are.
I never noticed it until
‘Twas gone - the narrow copse
Where now the woodman lops
The last of the willows with his bill.

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs out for a stroll in his fatigues on this pleasant DC evening, just taking in the air.
