Happy Monday!

Need another reason to vote for Biden? Slower news cycles. Because just this morning we've had these:

• After 127 years, Mississippi finally voted to remove the Confederate Battle Flag from its state flag.
• Cities across the country—including Columbus, Ohio—are removing statues of Columbus.
• The Supreme Court today announced that decisions it made only four years ago should stand, and that the president can fire the head of the Consumer Financial Protection Board.
• SARS-Cov-2 mutated in March to become more contagious, though fortunately not more virulent.
• Iran has issued an arrest warrant for President Trump and 35 other Americans for the murder of Qassem Suleimani. (Interpol declined to accept the warrant.)
• United Airlines disclosed that it made $5.3 billion from its frequent-flyer program last year, accounting for 25% of its annual operating profit.

So, you know, nothing too interesting.
