Feedly Day Two

Today, the stories seems to have a much larger spread of topics than the last time I checked Feedly. I believe this is due to the fact that no major political incident has happened the night before like we saw last time with the democratic debate. However, there are still two lose similarities I can see still formed. The first is Mike Pence being put in change of the US’ fight against coronavirus.

She verifies that is is because Magruder was a confederate general and not someone to be remembered. Since it is the 50th anniversary of the first man on the moon this year, it makes sense to change the name to Neil Armstrong.
