After looking at the local news this morning, I headed to WINCO, the local supermarket to stock up on a few things. My neighbors were already there and what we were seeing there is unprecedented around here. The toilet paper, paper towels, etc. were all gone...empty shelves. People were stocking up on cleaning stuff, water, canned food, etc.

President Trump  on Monday used the White House briefing room to lash out at critics of his response to the coronavirus outbreak, rattling off a litany of grievances about press coverage and airing a reel of cable news footage that portrayed his actions in a positive light.
The president sought to use a briefing ostensibly intended to inform the American public about the latest developments in the battle against the virus to frame his handling of the pandemic as a success. He bristled at any criticism and picking a fight with journalists in the room before experts delivered any update on the disease that has killed more than 22,000 people in the U.S. 
"We really have done this right. The problem is the press doesn’t cover it the way it should be," Trump said.
