In Which We Discuss:

1. Rudy getting COVID is how this had to end, guys...

2. If you loved having a boring, awkward convention, you’ll love the plans for this year’s inauguration!

3. Democratic campaign leadership promises not to do any introspection before 2022 races

4. “Toot-liani” and the world’s star-iest witness come together to make hearings fun again

5. The COVID relief package may not involve any actual relief, but by golly Mitch McConnell will make sure you can’t sue your employer for killing you if it’s the last thing he does!

6. Where do you stand in the vaccine order? (We’ll see you never!)
