In perhaps the craziest primary night ever, Arizona, Florida and Illinois are holding primaries tonight. Ohio was on the calendar but has delayed its primary until June due to the coronavirus pandemic. Biden has been declared the winner of Florida and Illinois already. Is this the end for the Bernie Sanders campaign?

I’m doubting that the Pence White House and Fox News will be able to do much with the Hunter Biden nonsense. Too many people have caught on to their playbook. The only major result they got from that attempt was the impeachment of Pence’s childish spokesman. Their new narrative appears to be one of calling Biden senile, and that one doesn’t appear to be going anywhere either.

I’m still catching up what’s going on in America after reentering the country yesterday but I did just get a news alert from Reuters a few minutes ago on this topic that Sanders is planning to talk to his supporters to assess his campaign’s future after losing Florida, Illinois and Arizona. Sanders is down ~230 delegates.

A lot of progressives are excited bout Marie Newman defeating anti-choice Democrat Dan Lipinski in Illinois but not all the news outlets have called it for her (yet).

While I was on the phone chatting with a friend, Biden swept the primaries. So it’s all but certain the’s the nominee now. Better come up with a good answer about Hunter, Joe! Don’t be swift boated or “her emails!”

All over bar the shouting. Nomination. Presidency. Senate and House. Should the nation give the Republican Party a dignified funeral?

I forgot Arizona is on Pacific Time now because it doesn’t follow Daylight Savings Time.

I’ve been on a tele-town hall with my congressman about the coronavirus pandemic. He said there were 10,000 calls which seems quite a high number. On the other hand, with everyone stuck at home, perhaps it’s to be expected.
