This weekend, but again, these are fast moving pieces. Were looking at uber and lyft that might be exiting california because of some new requirements that they treat their freelance workers like employees. That could be a costly issue for them, so much so even though it accounts for about 60 of their combined business, the state of california alone they would still leave rather than put up with that. In new york city, forget about the virus, forget about eventually opening up gyms next week, the fact of the matter is, new york city is a safety concern right now with residents in once red hot real estate markets saying enough. It has gotten so bad theyre bolting. The visitors upon hearing this, theyre just not coming. So were following that. Right now were also following the drama in washington as at least the house considers coming back to deal with this postal issue. Chad pergram on that. What are we talking about here, chad .

Parentsng boy, my brought me to the smithsonian because i lived in baltimore, and it was free. I came to love the smithsonian, so when i had a chance about a dozen years ago to become a regent of the smithsonian, i jumped at the opportunity. I got to meet somebody then who was creating the africanamerican museum, a gifted director who started with nothing to build that museum and now made into one of the most popular museums in the entire country. President obama we are so proud of Ronnie Bunche and the work he has done to make this day possible. Then i was the chair of a search committee, and we looked at many candidates, it was clear that Lonnie Bunche was the best person to be the secretary. The smithsonian, was committed to the smithsonian, so it was an easy choice. We are at the housing museum part of the smithsonian, and Lonnie Bunche is the 14th secretary, the first africanamerican to be selected and the first historian. Is that right .

The show kicked off with people of every race, ethnicity and gender reciting the constitution, then the pledge of allegiance, then singing the national anthem, after which they were ominously trapped inside an american flag. Im assuming the only way to set them free is by electing joe biden president. Its clear why the dem
