Mike's Blog Round Up
February 5, 2016

I've spent way too much time so far this week on Presidential Survivor, the reality show that has shifted locations from Iowa to New Hampshire, neither state in any way representative of the country, each state playing way too big a role in U.S. politics. So, this Friday, with all the attention there, let's take a break and look elsewhere. Join me, won't you?

The Duck of Minerva: Uncle Sam targets the banks.

Perrspectives: The FBI investigates the Flint poisoning.

Echidne of the Snakes: The CDC turns into Big Brother.

Can It Happen Here?: San Francisco tackles the homeless.

Oh, alright, fine. Here's just one, because we can't get quite enough of poor ol' Jeb! (And because I just can't resist. That whole reality show is just so freakin' entertainin'.)

Bark Bark Woof Woof: Bush gets the clap. Or not.

Round-up by Michael J.W. Stickings of The Reaction. (Twitter: @mjwstickings.) I'll be here through the weekend.
