4/ After the late POTUS is hustled away, the leaders of the industry group get together.

Should they grind Trump's name off the trophy and give it to Vance?

Melt it down to help defray the costs of the ceremony?

3/ As the fifth speaker winds up, he's still sleeping.

Knowing he's about to be presented with the World Leadership Golden Age Award for Excellence in Industrial Leadership, and aid gently nudges his shoulder.

And he topples over, quite dead.

No one noticed he'd turned blue, because of makeup.

2/ He accepts the invitation to the award ceremony, because HEY, award!

The various members of the group write brown-nosing speeches.

Angry Orange Grandpa is sound asleep a minute into the second of the speeches.

The Direct Action committee of the county Democratic party started a mutual aid group, and its growth and activity has been INSANE. Over 100 people signed up after maybe two weeks. Food delivery, hair cuts, transport, whistle brigades.

People are angry, pissed off at ICE, and want to help.

Ugh.

This too shall pass . . . hopefully quickly, with as little pain as possible.

And he gave the royalties to the families.

When he died they rang the bells 30 times at the "Maritime Sailors' Cathedral"

I can't wait for RFK Jr. to recommend parents have malaria parties for their kids.

It is like the fantasy that people should pay into IRAs instead of social security. Yeah, that might work if *you're wealthy enough to fully fund that IRA*.

People who live paycheck to paycheck aren't going to be able to effectively participate.

I think it is that. They want to get rid of insurance with this fantasy that people will pay out of pocket from a savings account.

I've been healthy, had a well paying career; my HSA is going to be my emergency medical fund and I'm grateful for it.

But it isn't a substitute for insurance!

Social media seems designed to crazify people at times like this.

Monsters from the Id all over the place.
