Our wings are not tired.

There will be more every day, and of course who knows how many that will just lie about their positive results. They are scum. The reporters should boycott the White House. I feel awful for the staff that has been exposed repeatedly.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

reporters should boycott the White House

I mean, I've been saying this for the past 4 years...

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

May all her deeds come back to her threefold.

This is where I'm at, for the entire pack of them. And I'm hoping the staff & Secret Service will be okay.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The rapid covid test I got on Friday was negative. Great. They sent a swab in for the test that takes longer, and this morning the lab said they couldn't get a result from the swab. Urgent care has no idea why.

So...back to get swabbed again.

Ugh, Dana. The test process isn't pleasant, but the reassurance of the negative result is nice.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Calli, you have U.P. antecedents? My mom was born and raised in Escanaba. That makes us practically related, right?

I need a really good leak from Walter Reed. There is no reliable narrator. I don't know if the scourge of the White House ever had the virus, if he did how sick was he, what treatment he had, if any. His spokespeople and WH medical team can't be believed. No idea what is true, of anything, of the statements from the official sources.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I've got to say, the Vector-in-Chief is behaving exactly as I guessed he would -- disregarding the best medical advice from some of the best doctors in the world. May his gut instincts reward him just as they have with all those bankruptcies.
