Lots of Big News This Morning

 Yes, lots of breaking news today. Lots of good, it seems and yes, some bad.  First the good.  If not even great.

Pfizer says virus vaccine 90% effective


Fantastic great news. Very hopeful for us all.

And that got us this.


With that great news on a possible vaccine, the markets went nuts. All time highs. Excellent. (Thank goodness it didn't come out last Monday, huh?).  

And then the bad news. This just broke in the last hour.


I swear these people don't learn. Incredible. With any other administration, this would be unbelievable. And I don't know what's more ironic, that he's a doctor or that he apparently contracted this COVID from a White House election party, given the now known results. Wow.

Then there's this.  It's not bad enough he won't recognize our vote, our votes and our election. It's not bad enough he won't man up, be an adult, a responsible adult---for the first time in his long life--no. 


No, that's not enough or bad enough. Now he also, along with all that, says he wants to have "recount rallies" across the nation. Terrific.  Not only deny our election and the results but have yet more pandemic superspreading events, just when we're hitting every higher highs in COVID cases. Sure, why not, right? Why should this man or his administration make sense NOW?

Unfortunately, there's yet more bad news from this President and his White House today, however.


This administration hasn't been enough of a revolving door, the President had to add yet more to it. Worse than firing him in these, the last 72 days of this administration, he had to also do it as the coward he is.


This horrible and sad news hit yesterday.


To maybe try to lift us back up and give us a bit of encouragement today from the Republicans, there's this.


I saw where son in law Jared Kushner had advised Trump to accept the election. Now this.


This, however, is starting to make me mad.


A Trump-appointed government official currently holds the power to release $9.9 million of 
federal funding and access to a plethora of government information for President-elect Joe Biden’s transition team, which is already at work.

But the official is not opening the door just yet — citing an ambiguity about the election results advanced by the Trump administration.

A spokesperson for the General Services Administration says Emily Murphy, the GSA administrator, hasn't signed off on the transition yet because she's waiting for an “ascertainment” about who officially won the 2020 presidential election, which President Donald Trump is contesting without evidence.

it's one thing for the Trumpster to deny reality. It's a whole 'nother thing for even one of them to start blocking this transition.

And as expected and thought.


Finally, today, folks, there's this.  Keep in mind this big bit of great news.


Think happy thoughts, campers.

And have a great day and week.

And remember!  72 days!! (to inauguration!)
