Do any of them actually love America? It doesn't seem like it.
I try to figure this one out, and I cannot find one single aspect of modern day america that they actually like, let alone love.

Chairman of the Senate Budget Committee. That has to be the most important thing about Bernie Sanders right now. That means that when a bill becomes law, Sanders has more say than anyone in the US how much money is allocated toward enforcing that law. To put that in the words of our new President, "That is a big fucking deal!"
Watching television is not an activity.
CBR's algorithm apparently doesn't like the term b-u-s-i-n-e-s-s-i-n-s-i-d-e-r, preventing me from posting a link, but that site [that must not be named] has an article on how the surviving Koch brother is behind a lawsuit aimed at making political donations even darker money than they already are.
Biden admin has said they'll be doing Covid updates 3 times a week starting Wednesday.
Be interesting to have that back on the front page. Not that it wasn't, but the Federal Government really did bury those numbers and just ignore it on a national level.
And things are absolutely abysmal out there. The UK Variant is popping up all over the place, threatening to make things so much worse, which is astonishing, given how bad things actually are.
Moderna says its vaccine provokes a weaker response against the South African variant.
Moderna’s vaccine is effective against new variants of the coronavirus that have emerged in Britain and South Africa, the company announced on Monday. But it appears to be less protective against the variant discovered in South Africa, and so the company is developing a new form of the vaccine that could be used as a booster shot.
“We’re doing it today to be ahead of the curve should we need to,” Dr. Tal Zaks, Moderna’s chief medical officer, said in an interview. “I think of it as an insurance policy.”
He added, “I don’t know if we need it, and I hope we don’t.”
Moderna reported findings from a study that used blood samples from eight people who had received two doses of the vaccine, and two monkeys that had also been immunized.
The variant found in Britain had no effect on the levels of neutralizing antibodies — the type that can disable the virus — produced after vaccination. But with the form from South Africa, there was a sixfold reduction in those levels.
Even so, the company said, those antibodies “remain above levels that are expected to be protective.”

It sounds really xenophobic, but it is ridiculous to me that so much of the world just left borders open. Just. Stop. Traveling.
Yeah, same. But I don't think anyone is willing to take the short term pains of losing what little tourist dollars for the sake of public health, when no one else is doing the same.
That's the biggest problem. The US lock down was so damn hap hazard, it was ineffective. So instead arresting the problem, it just dragged it out.
With the xeno boner the GOP has, I'm surprised they never pushed harder for a total shutdown.
