Tomorrow is the last day of unemployment benefits for millions. The House passed their relief bill back in May. What has the Senate been waiting on for the last 2 months? This lack of urgency and care is why so many have lost faith in our government.

[Timothy Burke @bubbaprog]

Well, this was remarkable.

[Andy Slavitt @ASlavitt]

Our system works exactly like it is supposed to.

We abandoned national testing.
We abandoned contact tracing.
We have made not wearing a mask a symbol of freedom.
World renowned epidemiologists are receiving violent threats.

[Nicholas Kristof @NickKristof]

When all 57 Buffalo police officers on the emergency response team resign because two were suspended for knocking down a 75-year-old man and sending him to the hospital, this seems like an opportunity to find 57 new police officers who don't approve of assaulting senior citizens.

We should think about issuing debit cards that are only good at locally owned small businesses. Only way many will survive. We need to get bigger and more creative.

The types of guidance/conversation we need from leaders at this point...need to set realistic expectations and guide individuals

[Mark D. Levine @MarkLevineNYC]

It’s time to update the all-or-nothing messaging on Covid-19 risk.

Let’s give people the tools to understand that the riskiness of social activities lies on a spectrum.

We are staring quarantine fatigue in the face. We need new guidance--and policies--to meet this challenge. 1/

In the past week, coroporations and our government took on measures to track people even further across the web and the majority of people will hardly bat an eye lash

If you use Giphy, you need to read this story about all the data it collects when you use its gifs. With today's acquisition, all of that data will become Facebook's. https://t.co/wRDXNtZjK2

The flight to flexible remote work policies is happening and companies who won’t adapt will miss out on top talent in the future

[Alex Kantrowitz @Kantrowitz]

News: Twitter will allow its employees to work from home forever. @jack just emailed the company about it. Details here: https://t.co/KvvozuQ8Qn

Gives some insight to what we would have done to prevent the situation we are in today, seems draconian but they still have their economy and we 400x deaths...and we never would have been able to do this with our political system

[Michael Kim @michaelvkim]

As an American currently in South Korea, it’s very interesting to me the stark contrast of how different the two countries’ response to coronavirus is. I don’t think most Americans fully understand the lengths that South Korea has undergone, so I’ll try my best to explain.

[Andy Slavitt @ASlavitt]

COVID Update May 6: Like many countries we picked a strategy to beat COVID-19. We just decided not to stick to it. 1/

[Robert Nelsen @rtnarch]

The reopening test has begun. Masks. Masks. Masks. These data show power of masks in my view. Each example is like a USA state or city—we are managing 50 epidemics now, not one. Zero chance of complete shut down in USA. So when virus comes back, the lesson is wear masks.

"Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it."

The 1918 Influenza Epidemic lasted over 10 months and came in three waves.

The 2nd wave was worse than the first wave.

We must be cautious. The war isn’t won yet.

Quote of the year: “If you expect elementary school children to endure the trauma of active shooter drills for your freedoms, you can wear a mask to Costco.”

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Think about how harshly #BlackLivesMatter & #AbolishICE activists were debased, called rioters, & treated as a threat to society.

Now watch & examine how this MAGA-armed rushing of a state legislature is treated.

This is for those who still think racial privilege is a fantasy.

Leaders should lead by example....

[NBC News @NBCNews]

VP Pence does not wear a mask during Tuesday’s visit to the Mayo Clinic, which is requiring all patients and visitors to wear a face covering or mask in effort to slow the spread of coronavirus.

How do public companies get over $850m in loans from PPP...maybe taking a few extra days to make sure the money gets into the right hands isn’t such a bad thing

Wisconsin reported the highest case count in the past three days....

But we are ok with bailing out corporations...

[Nikki Haley @NikkiHaley]

States should always plan for a rainy day just like any business. I disagree that states should take Fed money or be bailed out. This will lead to taxpayers paying for mismanagement of poorly run states. States need to tighten up, make some cuts, and manage.
