Blowing off science in a pandemic? Had somebody requested my approval for the NIOSH study on nonmedical grade PPE, testing with the same equipment used to rate the N95, I would have refused. Had anyone told me that we'd be begging, just for the sake of avoiding the appearance of woeful ignorance, CDC to explain to our highly educated and enlightened voters where the entrances of their upper respiratory tract were by using cartoons, I'd have said, you have to be kidding.

Had anyone told me, I would need a joint task force with multiple law enforcement agencies to perfect service of process of a summons, a simple task a girl scout could perform, but which had all of our bad ass, love my guns, lovers of liberty running for the line at the ladies room, I would have been asking Alan Funt to come out now, because it had gone beyond funny, in a Kafkaesque sense.
