Last month saw a duo of "news" stories making the rounds about this or that Russia-based hacker group that's "almost certainly linked" to Russian state intelligence. Bloomberg.com and USA Today were among those running with "Russia Accused of Vaccine Hacking," while the AP had a second go at "Russia Behind Spread of Virus Disinformation," which originally surfaced in April.

Amid the intermittent riots and looting; the disbanding of police departments; the increase in armed disagreements between citizens; a four-year coup; an economy in turmoil; and talk of a geographic separation between Americans who have a race-based view of the human condition and those who don't, one would think our country's current upheavals -- unyielding even to a plague (itself partisan) -- would see us wanting to reduce our headaches, perhaps by making nice at least in the international sphere.

For who can argue that this once proud and noble nation has not fallen into the depths of madness in recent years? After all, what is madness but a self-delusion run amok, far removed from any semblance of reality?

When the Antonov cargo jet departed from Reno on April 1st, it kicked up such a cloud of dust that locals called the fire department reporting a wildfire. While there's no official confirmation, it's possible the Russian AN124 carried a delivery similar to the ventilators, masks and respirators that landed the same day in the same kind of plane at JFK International, an offer accepted days earlier by President Trump from President Putin.

One side effect of the SARS Coronavirus-2 appears to be a diminished appetite among Americans for war with Russia.
