In an offbeat display of cosmic irony -- or perhaps the younger generation simply seeking surcease from the surfeit of sorrows -- the Top Ten rock songs included "Bridge Over Troubled Water," "Let It Be," "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother," and "Spirit in the Sky."

House approves $2T aid package over objections from Massie Kentucky Press News Service The House of Representatives Friday passed a $2 trillion aid package designed to throw a lifeline to American individuals, businesses and the health-care industry as the nation fights the COVID-19 pandemic. CNN reports the bill now goes to President Trump for his signature. This followed efforts by Kentucky Republican Congressman Thomas Massie to force members of Congress to return to Washington for a roll call vote. But CNN reports House leadership was able to thwart Massie's support of a roll call vote. That allowed members to pass the measure with a voice vote instead. But members still had to travel back to the nation's capital to establish a quorum and deny Massie's effort. For his attempt, Massie earned substantial criticism from lawmakers and even from Trump, a member of ohis own party. The president suggested earlier in the day that the Kentucky lawmaker should be kicked out of the GOP. The aid package is the largest in American history.
