Did you enjoy your townhall at Lincoln Memorial yesterday? I liked how the questioners were on video from all over the country asking you about some challenging issues … best of all was Carolyn’s question about why you bully the press. I was surprised that you equated yourself with Abe claiming that you get hounded by the press more than he did….. I hope you listened to Carolyn’s suggestion that you “let go of those behaviors that are turning people away from you.”
What’s blooming at Camp David today? I hope you’ll take a few minutes to go out and see. Even better, take some photos & upload them to iNaturalist. … Photographing nature can lead to awe, & awe can lead to happiness, & I think happiness would relieve you from some of the angst that misguides you. Does Barron like nature? He might enjoy iNaturalist….
Well, KJU is not dead. He’s back, puffing away on his ciggy as he cuts the red ribbon at a fertilizer factory. Maybe they don’t have CV in NK, or maybe KJU contracted it & recuperated. Anyway, you don’t have to worry about disruption in Pyongyang due to confusion about who should be in charge….
… Today I am wondering about MRP? Why is he wandering around Mayo Clinic barefaced? I know he is an attractive guy with a winning smile, but now is the not the time for vanity. Even though it’s difficult to talk through a mask, don’t you think he should be setting a good example?…

…make sure that all of the companies follow JBS’ lead and fix their plants. At their Greeley, CO facility, they put up shields between workstations and lunch tables.

…It seems like you are getting advice from all kinds of interesting places. According to Friday’s Guardian, Mark Grenon, leader of Florida's Genesis II Church of Health & Healing, wrote to you about the miracles of bleach before you mused about that in your press conference. Did you know that he makes a lot of $$ from convincing parents of autistic kids to buy his product, Miracle Mineral Solution? ….
I don’t know what to make of the ad that John H. Tyson (JHT) put in the WP yesterday. I’m afraid he’s playing with fire & could ignite an inferno by calling into question the food supply. Most Americans have never faced food insecurity. As my dad loved to say, Americans enjoy the cheapest food in the world & we take it for granted. Folks will freak out if that changes….
When I googled TMD I was surprised to see a photo of you with him & HDRC in Oct. 2016 laughing together at the Al Smith Dinner for Catholic Charity. ..I encourage you to spend more time with TMD. He’s so diplomatic & exudes generosity, forgiveness & love. We could use more of that kind of presence in our lives.
…I’m excited about the 1 trillion tree campaign! Just remember, it’s not enough to plant the trees, we have to take care of them, too. …According to World Resources Institute it will take the US $4 billion a year to finish the campaign within 20 years. It’s great that you took the first step in that effort yesterday….

…The media provides stories about how to entertain yourself and how to fill the hours, leaving us with the sense that leisure-time is ample. Well it’s not…..Since it’s hard, we need your encouragement. We need you to start repeating some kind of catchy phrase so we can embrace our confinement. LIBERATE is not it….
