The Times They Are A-Changin’

It’s Friday, and there are a couple of things that have been on my radar that I’ve been keeping on the back burner. One is the looming risk the powers that be might try to yank the rug out from under Donald Trump by intentionally tanking the economy. The other is the gradual drip, drip, drip of fearmongering headlines about bird flu.

Granted, most people in the MAGA crowd are probably not staying tuned into these stories, because they’re too busy keeping track of all the winning.

* Will Trump's Diminished Data Sharing at CDC Hamper Bird Flu

* U.S. Bird Flu Cases Surge in Early 2025

To be clear, I believe this propaganda is laying the groundwork for another pandemic. Whether or not they actually pull the trigger and try to use the pandemic playbook to undermine Trump between now and the midterms is a matter of speculation. These recent headlines point toward the possibility:
