1. Cartoon's a bit premature. He's picked Pope Pence instead

of doing a sane thing and picking the Surgeon General.

We are so screwed.

2. 1030a ET Friday: S&P 500 down 15% from all-time-high, halfway between a correction

and a bear market (a correction begins at 10% down, which we crossed yesterday or the day before; a bear market begins at 20% down). Would love to see the term "bear market" wrapped around Dottie's neck. (Along with "impeached&quot .

2878 S&P 500 is the 15% down point.

6. I went out for a while and

when I came back, it looked like the ol' Plunge Protection Team had been hard at work. Only down 459 at that point.

Barely 15 minutes later, and it's back to -560.

Not lookin' good, folks. Not lookin' good at all.
