DotRen, Exactly. I just look at the headlines and don't read the stories because I don't want to get even more upset.

I attempt to only really pay attention to a few trusted sources: Dr. Scott Gottlieb, he is on CNBC often; David Brooks and Jonathon Capehart (sp?) Friday commentary on PBS Nightly News; and Fareed Zakaria on CNN, GPS (the Global Public Square) Sunday morning.
For a news summary I have been watching Shep Smith nightly on CNBC. Everything else I am taking with a large grain of salt, or at least researching the headlines.

I'm down to 2. I watch Rachael Maddow and Don Lemon. 2 hours is enough for me.

Lol! Lani, it is kind of addicting. I tell myself the other shows I watched at one time, sitcoms and documentaries, I can always see on demand someday. But, someday never comes. 😣 They should not call it the news anymore. Call it what it really is. Bad news.

Our county has a mask mandate till June 2 when it lapses unless it is renewed. They leT it lapse then. That is Dane County where Madison is in in Wisconsin. Someoe took our county to the state Supreme Court which discontinued the state mandate but left Dane County to decide for itself. I think they want the 12 to 15 year olds to get the second vaccination . This gives them time. but the cab said ti will continue the cab company I use continues the mask mandate. and most health agencies require it. Transportation requires it. Like bus or para transit.

I am giving 5 dollars a month to our state Democratic Party to get rid of Ron Johnson. That will be my donations in all. I can't give to everyone. nd our state Democratic Party needs the money. I will mail Monday. It is out of my debit card. I hope it stops them from asking for more. I went to Senator Romneys page of the Senate a few days ago. And told him I admired him but that I am a Democrat. I asked him to follow my dream the I had that he was the 50th vote for S! and that he voted with Dems to get rid of the filibuster just for voting. I hope he gets the message and it gets to him. said to him I hope my dream was right.

NY DA convenes Grand Jury in Trump criminal probe. You-know-who calls it "purely political". I'm afraid he will be long gone from this world before he ever does any actual prison time. Or pay a fine. Or grow a conscience. Wait a minute, getting crazy on that last one...
