I'm going to play the Covid-nostalgia card and hop on a Zoom with friends and have a drink in memory of the economy. Just seems like the thing to do to honor its passing.

News Analysis: In a span of only 50 days, President Trump has done more than any of his modern predecessors to hollow out the foundations of an international system that the U.S. painstakingly erected in the 80 years since it emerged victorious from World War II.

My uber driver today was Afghani. He worked for the US military for 14 years. He has a green card and has lived here for 4 years. He cannot return home. The Taliban killed his brother. His wife & kids are still in Afghanistan but were to be here soon. Their visas were just cancelled. 😡 💔
