Senator Tammy Duckworth, as you know, a double amputee veteran from the Irag War, had this to say about Bonespurs Trump’s decision forcing 1,000 West Point Cadets to come back to school during the epidemic to listen to him give a campaign speech at their commencement ceremony (keep in mind that she doesn’t even have any legs to have bonespurs on): “Trump’s reckless decision to gather 1,000 Cadets at West Point for a speech puts our future military leaders at increased risk — all to stroke his own ego. Our troops need stable, consistent leadership during volatile times like these, not a Commander-in-Chief who values his own photo ops and TV ratings over their health and safety. I urge President Trump to evaluate the potential consequences of this vanity speech and reconsider holding the event.”

You can never believe commies –
One of the men charged over the shootdown of Malaysian airlines flight MH17 has refused to deny taking orders from a senior Russian general who has been named as a potential suspect.
Colonel General Andrei Burlaka, the deputy head of the Russian Federal Security Service’s border guards, is four rungs down from Vladimir Putin himself in the FSB chain of command and would be the most senior Russian official implicated in the disaster.
According to an investigation published this week, Gen Burlaka directed Russian backed-separatists in Ukraine and was in charge of supplying them with weapons at the time the BUK missile launcher that downed the aircraft crossed the border.
Dutch prosecutors say the missile launcher that shot down MH17 came from the 53rd anti aircraft missile Brigade of the Russian army and crossed the border just a few days before the disaster on July 17, 2014.
Mr Girkin, a former FSB colonel who commanded the DPR’s militia from April until late summer 2014, is one of four men being tried in absentia in the Netherlands for intentionally bringing down the aircraft and the murders of the 298 victims.
He has always maintained that the irregular militia he led did not shoot down the Boeing, but has refused to answer when asked if that meant the regular Russian military was responsible.

We are becoming the laughing stock of the world.
From the Irish Times. An editorial by Fintan O’Toole
“Over more than two centuries, the United States has stirred a very wide range of feelings in the rest of the world: love and hatred, fear and hope, envy and contempt, awe and anger. But there is one emotion that has never been directed towards the US until now: pity,” O’Toole wrote. “However bad things are for most other rich democracies, it is hard not to feel sorry for Americans. Most of them did not vote for Donald Trump in 2016. Yet they are locked down with a malignant narcissist who, instead of protecting his people from Covid-19, has amplified its lethality. The country Trump promised to make great again has never in its history seemed so pitiful.”

GREAT IDEA! –
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Nine companies including Chevron Corp , Exxon Mobil Corp and Alon USA Inc have agreed to rent space to store 23 million barrels of crude in the U.S. emergency oil reserve, a U.S. official said on Wednesday, as the Trump administration tries to help energy firms deal with the crash in oil prices.
President Donald Trump had ordered Energy Secretary Dan Brouillette in March to fill the reserve, which has about 77 million barrels of free space, “to the top.” But an initial plan to buy about 30 million barrels fell through after the U.S. Congress declined to fund the purchase.
The SPR website says that 1.1 million barrels of sour crude oil had been moved to the facility in April and the reserve currently holds 636.1 million barrels.

Narrative fail again –
Although the US President undoubtedly got the wrong end of the stick, it has emerged that one company really is hoping to trial a new ultraviolet light therapy which it claims can ‘disinfect’ the lungs.
Colorado-based Aytu BioScience says it has carried out successful early tests of its ‘Healight’ technology which delivers intermittent ultraviolet light through a tube in the throat, directly to the lungs.
The company itself terms the process ‘injectable disinfectant’ and it is likely to be the origin of President Trump’s comments.
The ‘Healight’ therapy was first developed in 2017 by the Medically Associated Science and Technology (Mast) Program at the non-profit hospital Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles.
The company says the treatment has shown potential as an effective antiviral and antibacterial treatment while causing no damage to mammalian cells.
