They're going right for the self image Republicans have of being the true Americans who stand up for self sacrifice and the American way, then rubbing their noses in what Putin's Pggy has turned them into.

This is good, really good. I hope it gets actual airplay.

is that some people are desperate and afraid. Our government is failing them while we shut off their means to survive. For some, it may be about survival. We need to point the finger at the people behind the curtain, rather than focus on the people. I've decided the ultra rich love when we fight each other. It keeps us from coming after them

When the government shuts you down through no fault of your own, the government should compensate you for losses. How much revenue will you lose this month? Here's a check. Stay closed. Stay safe.

anybody open? every essential employee gets tested. Right there at work.
