All of them, Katie
Katie Miller, who lies for Mike Pence and lies with Stephen Miller, has tested positive. Why this is good: Because she is around a terrified Trump every day, maskless like all Real Americans. Why this is bad: Because she had casual contact with Anthony Fauci, Stephen Hahn the FDA Commissioner and CDC director Robert Redfield, all of whom are in two-week quarantine. This leaves Deborah Birx and that kid with the lawn mower to stand beside The Leader during his performances of the heath scene from King Lear, now cut back to whenever he feels like it.
Maybe she was infected by the still-unnamed food steward, or by one of the eleven Secret Service members who are also carrying the coronavirus around. Or by someone else. Or maybe it's a complete mystery: "Katie, she tested very good for a long period of time, and then all of a sudden she tested positive...this is why the whole concept of tests aren't necessarily great...today, I guess, for some reason she tested positive..." I'm familiar with this phenomenon: Year after year my grandmother tested negative for cancer and then one day, there it was. She never would tell us why she waited until Stage Four.
It's just over 52 years since Martin Luther King died while fighting for sanitation workers in Memphis, but if you think conditions have improved in the South, you probably haven't heard about New Orleans. When they passed out leaflets demanding PPE, a raise to $15 an hour and servicing of broken trucks, workers were fired and replaced by convicts, Dixie's favorite source of free labor since 1865.
Elsewhere in kudzu country, our friend Kelly "Sticky Fingers" Loeffler is in the news again. The New York Times reports that Senator Kelly -- who's "all about Georgia!" according to her latest relentless round of ads -- got a parting gift of $9 million from her husband's company, which runs the New York Stock Exchange. It sounds extravagant but don't forget, she had to split with Brian Kemp to get the appointment. Prove I'm wrong. At any rate, it's pretty clear Kelly is all about Kelly.
And as Donald Barthelme would say, there's brain damage in the north: At a parade in honor of nurses in Darby, Pennsylvania, an armed man drove an SUV (why is it never a Honda Civic?) into a crowd of first responders. I'm guessing the extreme right edge of Blogenheim has moved from "It was created by Chinese scientists" to "Nurses are causing the 'panic-demic' so they can make big overtime money and stay in hotels free."
Oh, wait! I just found them.
