NYT: SCOTUS has voted 5-4 to strike down a Louisiana law that would have left the entire state with just one abortion clinic. Kavanaugh — who Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine assured us wouldn't toss abortion rights — voted to toss abortion rights. This should be the nail in the coffin of her miserable career.
Smells like Van Jones helped Kushner craft this exec order, so he touts it. 'You can't polish this turd,' he said of Trump's delinquency, yet here he is with boot black & rag. As much as Fauci explains the science, Trump refuses to wear a mask. Progress comes when he is removed. https://t.co/RfzSHv0x0o

DAILY BEAST: Van Jones is a horrible, horrible traitor — he apparently secretly helped Trump craft his do-nothing police bill, then praised it at his job on CNN without acknowledging he was behind it. He's sucking up to Kimye and the Kushners. How could this ex-Obama aide have fallen so far?

TIME OUT: Hate-free chicken sandwiches in Chicago!
KTLA: Taco joint in California forced to close because too many patrons get snippy when asked to wear masks. Related: COVID-19 cases in that state are spiking again (including in low-income areas), erasing its early gains. Only a handful of U.S. states have COVID-19 somewhat under control, including my home base of New York.

TWITTER: Scott Adams, the 63-year-old creator of Dilbert, is moaning that he lost his UPN show for being white. In 2006, he said it was because nobody watched UPN and his show had endured a time-slot change. But now, it's race-based. Even though other shows canceled by UPN the same year his show was canceled starred black people. But keep being a MAGA idiot, Scott.

NYT: RIP Charles Webb, the author of the novel The Graduate. Thirty-three years ago this month, my graduation-from-high-school open house (that's what we called them in Michigan) was Graduate-themed, in spite of the lack of an older woman (or man) on my horizon, and in spite of the novel's bleak message:
