Man o man, India is hurting. COVID-19 has hit them in a second round that is outpacing their first round by over 3 to 1.

My heart breaks for them. At least the US and Great Britain have pledged aid. Let's hope that ball gets moving fast.

In other news, some Florida men face a lifetime of prison after peddling a "Miracle Mineral Solution" as a COVID-19 cure.

Ater a federal court ordered them to stop, they did what any normal person would do: They threatened to "pick up guns" and instigate another Waco.

"Funky pickle" shipment had a SURPRISE!

Border patrol agents in Texas seized more than $4 million worth of suspected methamphetamine hidden inside a tractor-trailer carrying “funky pickles,” officials said.

On April 17, U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers inspected a tractor-trailer hauling a shipment of pickled cucumbers at the Pharr-Reynose International Bridge cargo facility, the agency said.

After imaging the shipment, authorities said they found 114 packages of suspected methamphetamine, worth $4,343,000, hidden with the fresh produce, officials said.

“This substantial quantity of hard narcotics will not make its final destination in the United States,” Port Director Carlos Rodriguez said.
