Has anyone considered the possibility that they legit think they are negotiating with China, but are actually the prank victims of a drive-time morning zoo radio program in Shanghai?
China Foreign Ministry spox overnight: “Let me make it clear one more time – China and the US are not engaged in any consultation or negotiation on tariffs.”
Treasury Secretary Bessent on CNBC just now:
*BESSENT: ALL ASPECTS OF GOVERNMENT IN CONTACT WITH CHINA

It's with extreme embarrassment I admit it has taken me most of my life to realize that "petty theft" and "grand theft" are from the French petit (little) and grand (big). Oh madame, quel petit larcin vous avez commis!

@mbutler808 @Fishguy_FHL and Frank Fish: Kudos to whoever added this to Dave Wake’s obit: “David Wake’s career has been the antithesis of the ‘Krogh Principle’. The Wake principle would be that major questions can be answered by a careful enough examination of salamanders.”

@RepDonBacon: Pres. Trump has
- Incited his followers to storm the Capitol
- Failed to authorize support for CP once the attack started
- Told the rioters he loved them
- Said he regrets giving his Thursday conciliatory statement
If that’s not grounds for impeachment, what is?

I think nothing better summarizes America’s COVID denialism than ND voting in a legislator who died of it a month ago.

New study shows a strong negative relationship between mask use and frequency of COVID symptoms. Nebraska is in the bottom 25% for use and top 10% for symptoms. @GovRicketts needs to require masks - asking people to “do the right thing” isn’t cutting it....

Zoom’s automated transcription needs some work for scientific terms. I was talking about alleles in a Gen Bio review and part of the transcript came out as “And so those illegals are going to become part of the population,” which is not really something I want attributed to me.

In March, Nebraska had among the lowest COVID cases per-capita in the nation. Now we’re 12th highest and still moving up the charts. Seems like maybe not the best of times to be trying to open things up?

Kyle Korver will be Creighton’s commencement speaker. Great last-minute pick-up. I’m looking forward to his speech given his recent commentary on race and privilege.

@AddieECullum Assuming I've got the right Addie Cullum, I wanted to let you know that you used my email address when setting up your Chegg account today. Probably just a typo, but I'd appreciate it if you could fix it. Thanks.
