Anyone notice the RIDICULOUS WH response to grifter Bolton's book?
1) its lies
2) its classified
How can something be a lie AND classified at the same time?
Either its a lie (and therefore impossible to be classified) or its the truth (and perhaps could be deemed classified which doesnt matter now as the book is being leaked)
Anyone have recommendations for a good biography of Putin?
One covering his KGB/FSB days and his nationalist/expansionist ambitions?
Damn :( ... Wife of Rep Andy Barr (R-KY) died unexpectedly
https://www.lex18.com/news/covering-kentucky/congressman-andy-barrs-wife-dies-unexpectedlyCongressman Andy Barrs wife Carol passed away suddenly tonight at the family home in Lexington. During this tragic time, we respectfully ask for privacy for Congressman Barr and his family to grieve Mrs. Barr being called home to heaven. Congressman Barr may release a more detailed statement at a later date, but right now is solely focused on being a father to his two beautiful daughters.
Quite young. Tragic news
SCOTUS decision on Gay Discrimination - 172 pages. 138 pages are Alito's and Kavanaugh's dissents

Trump supporters burn Michigan absentee ballot applications
https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/michigan/2020/06/13/trump-supporters-burn-michigan-absentee-ballot-applications/111958524/
The applications were burned Friday during an event called Operation Incinerator outside the DeltaPlex Arena in Walker. Many people had flags, shirts and signs showing support for President Donald Trump and Republicans.
For them just to issue them without merit, without request to absolutely everybody that is a great waste of taxpayer money, said Michael Farage, president of the Grand Rapids Taxpayers Association.
That's showing us!
Way to pwn us libtards!
Seeing more press for Rebekah Jones now (fired FL data "scientist")
Shes the one who was fired for, in her terms, not manipulating Covid-19 test numbers for the state
Be careful and dont blindly spread her info. Shes not doing anyone any favors for a couple of reasons
1) the original disagreement, from what I read, was over not using presumed positive cases. This isnt the presumed positive from locally tested cases not yet confirmed by the CDC. This was just cases of symptoms which could be Covid, even if no test was taken. I take issue with that. While we may want to include those from an abundance of caution, testing is very easily obtained here in FL now. Using laboratory confirmed test results will be more reliable long-term
2) her new arcgis site shows higher daily totals than the FL Dept of Health site. One glaring reason: she includes antibody positive test results in that. Thats greatly disingenuous and distorts daily numbers by about 10%. Antibodies could be present for months. Someone going for an antibody test didnt necessarily just contract the virus. These numbers should be kept separately, and on the FL DOH site they are. Theres a separate serology report available which details antibody tests
Ive been culling data for days from the FL site (which publishes in a painful-to-use PDF which takes me a couple hours to update my separately-maintained spreadsheets I use for my trend analysis)
PDF: http://ww11.doh.state.fl.us/comm/_partners/action/report_archive/state/state_reports_latest.pdf
Therefore, I reconcile numbers with this site, too, esp because FL likes to keep non-residents from certain totals even tho theyre currently here and tested positive here (lot of vacation home owners here who spend extended periods of time here)

Out of respect for Juneteenth holiday

Btw, not retweeting that twit
Florida COVID-19 - Some positive news from the massive numbers of new cases?
I've been working the last few days on culling data from the FL Dept of Health site. They publish to a PDF and it's a PAIN IN THE M***********G ASS to get data into a usable format but I've had plenty of spare time lately (ugh) so I've built up some good spreadsheets.

BUT, the somewhat positive news is that the Age Groups being infected are trending toward younger people, which makes sense as the economy reopens and workers head back and people head out to restaurants, bars, gyms, etc.
See this animated GIF I put together comparing March - June.

Hospitalizations have taken a slight tick upward the last couple of days as seen in the 1st tweet. Gonna keep an eye on this but also hopeful we can keep things from skyrocketing down here and still be able to get people back to work as safely as possible.
