Two stories that feel loosely connected. First on NPR, highlighting a veteran in Alaska fired from the Small Business Administration. He was planning to finish his career with the government, now he’s losing sleep, worried about supporting his family, saying:

I’ve never felt more betrayed in my entire life.

Then via Political Wire, James Carville has a prediction:

I believe that this administration, in less than 30 days is in the midst of a massive collapse and particularly a collapse in public opinion.

Carville might be wrong, but I’d love for him to be right.

I think the measles outbreak is part of the story too

@rossk The measles outbreak may end up hitting both the misinformation and mismanagement points before it’s all done. Sad because it’s so easily preventable.
