1) While this really belongs in China Virus news, it is so important I wanted to lead with it: Denmark announced it would prohibit those under 18 from getting the China Virus vax.

But, “Trust the science.”

2) Two stories stand out from the slimy Mar-A-Lago raid. Yes, it's a raid and it shows that it was a disaster for the Deep State. First, Grand Moff Garland had to make a statement saying he authorized it, even if he didn't know about it. And second, now they have to leak a story to the Washington Compost saying Trump may have documents related to nukes at the house.
-Riiiiggghhhttt, those documents were so sensitive that it took them 18 months to go get them.
3) Just sayin’, this is not a good look for The-Man-Who-Would-Be-President, Governor Ron DeSantis, who, up to this point, had been “A+” DeSantis: “The Silence of DeSantis—Florida Governor Ducks Media Appearances, Records Statements, Seeking to Avoid Questions About Trump Raid.”
-As I said yesterday, this will be a sheep from the goat issue for MAGA voters. No, you won’t lose all of them, but you’ll lose enough to lose if you do not come out forceful against this heinous FascistBI action.

In one version, this is a hideous lie; but if true, it is a hideous outrage demanding the FascistBI be completely dismantled with the parts shipped to Rwanda.
