    Don’t look now it isn’t me or you subject to blatant racism or ethnic discrimination every day. Many years ago my wife and I were discriminated against in a coffee shop in Kyoto. It felt like shit. But not a single other person in Kyoto and especially our hosts at Kyoto University treated us with anything other gracious respect. That incident was but a pebble compared to the daily gauntlet many groups face in America. “The least racist country on earth”-who are you kidding?

    I live in Indiana and can testify that it is the most racist place on Earth. Someone from the south might argue the point but I'll stand by it. The Klansmen run around out in the open here. Half the Black people hate the whites. The Burmese stick together. The Muslims have to drive to Detroit to buy food. The place is a genuine piece of shit.

    Trump is volunteering to be a check on himself - just as soon as Congress gives his team a half-trillion dollars to spread around at its own discretion.

    'I'll be the oversight': Trump volunteers to be a check on himself

    excerpt:

    "At a White House press briefing yesterday, a reporter asked the president about possible layers of accountability. Trump largely dodged the question, so the reporter followed up: "[T]he concern about the fund is about the lack of oversight for Treasury having this unilateral authority to dole out all of this money." Trump seemed eager to offer a solution:

    "Well, look, I'll be the oversight. I'll be the oversight."

    Ah yes, there's a sensible solution. Donald Trump, who's been impeached and criminally investigated, who's paid millions in fraud settlements, who's no longer allowed to run a charity in New York because his so-called foundation was considered flagrantly corrupt, is now volunteering to be a check on himself -- just as soon as Congress gives his administration a half-trillion dollars to spread around at its own discretion."

    Trump has made Easter the time to restart the economy because he thinks it would be beautiful.



    'I'd love to have it open by Easter': Trump says he wants to restart economy by mid-April
    Despite health experts’ warnings, the president has signaled his eagerness to end to the strict preventative measures his administration imposed last week.

    'I'd love to have it open by Easter': Trump says he wants to restart economy by mid-April

    excerpt:

    "Defending his rationale for reopening the economy, Trump repeatedly invoked deadly flu seasons in the U.S., remarking that the fatalities produced by that illness do not shut down the nation‘s normal operations in the same way the coronavirus has.

    “Thirty-six thousand deaths a year ... but we‘ve never closed down the country for the flu,” the president said. “So you say to yourself, what is this all about?“

    Of course, flu season began months ago, and its death toll is largely predictable. The coronavirus, which is much more infectious than the flu, has only recently started tearing across the country, and could eventually result in hundreds of thousands or even millions of deaths.

    Trump‘s new push to promptly wind down social distancing breaks with the advice of public health experts who have been urging greater governmental action, not less, in the race to “flatten the curve“ of cases and prevent communities from confronting the kind of crisis unfolding in New York — the current epicenter of the outbreak in the U.S."

    'I'd love to have it open by Easter': Trump says he wants to restart economy by mid-April

    excerpt:

    "On Tuesday, though, Trump appeared as focused on the practicalities of reopening the economy by Easter Sunday as he was on the cultural significance of the date itself, which he called a “very special day for me.“

    “You‘ll have packed churches all over our country,“ Trump told Fox News. “I think it would be a beautiful time, and it‘s just about the timeline that I think is right.“"

    This remark by Trump sounds as nutty as a news story about churchgoers in the southern U.S. willing to engage in behavior such as licking the floor or door handles of the church in praise of Trump and in defiance of the 'hoax' virus.

    Larry Kudlow announced a $6 trillion bailout for a virus that he said the U.S. was protected from by an airtight seal.

    Trump said he personally will be the oversight for all the money.



    Trump says there's 'light at the end of the tunnel' as White House pitches $6T coronavirus stimulus package

    Trump says there's 'light at the end of the tunnel' as White House pitches $6T coronavirus stimulus package

    excerpt:

    "Speaking at Tuesday's White House coronavirus task force briefing, Director of the U.S. National Economic Council Larry Kudlow specifically said the new coronavirus bill working its way through congressional gridlock would total $6 trillion: $4 trillion in liquidity from the Federal Reserve and $2 trillion in new money. Typical annual appropriations from Congress in a given fiscal year are around $1.2-4 trillion, with total expenditures roughly $4.3 trillion."

    The Memo: Trump mulls the biggest gamble of his presidency

    The Memo: Trump mulls the biggest gamble of his presidency

    excerpt:

    "It is impossible to divorce such predictions from Trump’s own electoral goals, however. The presidential election is little more than seven months away, and the strong economy that was expected to be Trump’s strongest card has been ripped away.

    Fighting an election campaign amid a deep recession would be a huge problem for any president and perhaps insurmountable for someone as divisive as Trump.

    That raises the incentives for him to restore some level of economic normalcy — however fragile — and portray himself as the leader who stuck to his guns and got the nation out of a deep trough."

    Trump's push to shorten coronavirus shutdown proves the captain is flying blind
    To watch Trump is to witness the awesome and terrifying power of the American president over life and death – a burden he is unqualified to bear
    David Smith in Washington

    Trump's push to shorten coronavirus shutdown proves the captain is flying blind

    excerpt:

    "But when Donald Trump let rip for nearly two hours, it was as if the captain had announced a sudden whim to land the plane on water while wearing a blindfold. We sat tight for an unnerving journey.

    On a day that a hundred American deaths were reported, the US president made clear his intention to reopen the country for business much sooner than expected and, seemingly, sooner than medical experts believe to be safe. Everything we know about him suggests this impulse has been guided by Fox News, the Wall Street Journal, the stock market, poll numbers, the imminent election and pure gut instinct. Not science.

    To watch Trump talk himself into this rash action in real time from a seat 30 feet (10 metres) away was to witness the awesome and terrifying power of the American president over life and death. It is a solemn burden that he, the first White House occupant with no prior political or military experience, is uniquely unqualified to bear."

    Trump has said that anyone who wants the test can get it.

    When a governor asked Trump about obtaining test kits, she was cut off.



    A restless Trump wants to end the country's isolation -- and his own

    A restless Trump wants to end the country's isolation -- and his own - CNNPolitics

    excerpt:

    "He seemed tetchy during a video conference with governors held at Federal Emergency Management Agency headquarters last week, flatly calling out "next governor" as he waited in silence for each line to be connected. After South Dakota Republican Gov. Kristi Noem raised concerns about accessing test kits in her state, she seemed to be abruptly disconnected as she asked whether she could "just touch on two other things."

    "I think we got cut off," Trump said before moving on."
