Summary

A leaked internal CDC document says that the daily coronavirus death rate could nearly double in the next month, but numbers and "facts" change every single day. Rather than doing our own homework, are we giving the power to the media to tell us how to feel about all these "facts"? While the U.S. Chamber of Commerce estimates that 40% of businesses may close in the next six months, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announces that salons and gyms can open soon, in addition to the movie theaters and retailers that have already opened. And lastly, who is more likely to snitch on you for violating a lockdown order: your Republican or Democrat neighbor? Today's Sponsors: Turn your body into a brickhouse with Field of Greens.
