Demonstrators across the country violated social-distancing orders to call for the reopening of states and the American economy.
The rallies, like the one outside the state Capitol in Austin, Texas, above, rode a wave of similar protests this past week. On Saturday alone, people also gathered in Indianapolis, Ind.; Carson City, Nev.; Annapolis, Md.; Salt Lake City, Utah, and Brookfield, Wis.
President Trump on Friday openly encouraged the right-wing protests in states with stay-at-home orders, even after officially and publicly conceding that reopening was up to governors.

That's all I've got of it since after a puter crisis no links in emails will open for me. Youtube finds only a few minutes' worth

In other news, a major right-pundit insists the threat is real -- says Sweden's numbers are going up up up (possibly because its govt is ordering hospitals to lie)

Doesn't come direct from NYT which you might need a password to open their stories although not their front page. This came from Google News.
