The Elite Discourse™ has gone from "you're a crazy conspiracy theorist if you think corporate profiteering thats ripping everyone off is driving inflation" to "OK, it's true that corporate profiteering is ripping everyone off & driving inflation, but thats actually a good thing"

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

We must demand that the extremely wealthy pay their fair share. Period.

[Right Wing Watch @RightWingWatch]

Our efforts to expose the bigoted view and dangerous conspiracy theories spread by right-wing activists has now resulted in @YouTube banning our channel and removing thousands of our videos. We attempted to appeal this decision, and YouTube rejected it.

#Mexico is resource rich. But today, 60% of its energy is produced privately.

As #AMLO works to bring energy back under public control, his opponents are weaponizing the language of environmentalism to keep control of the grid.

Gov. Greg Abbott has called for "winterization" of electric power facilities, but has not placed blame on natural gas failures that also contributed to the February blackouts. https://t.co/5rxlkrZsrO

@GOPLeader This asshat knows the Democrats didn’t “cancel” Dr. Seuss.
He knows that the family decided on their own to cease publishing the books which contained insensitive material.
He knows that Green Eggs and Ham wasn’t one of those books.
Kevin knows all of that.
But he doesn’t care.

[Clay Lewis Jenkins @JudgeClayJ]

@GovAbbott wants to change the subject from his failure to protect the power grid and all the damage it caused you. But Texans can walk and chew gum. #WearAMask and hold the Gov, @txrrc @TexasHouse @TexasSenateGOP accountable to weatherize, modernize and make you whole!

[McKinney Area Democratic Club @McKDems]

@MelGtz @JudgeClayJ 🚨 ⚠️ Dallas area friends, report price gouging if you see it! 🚨 ⚠️

@wfaa @HowieChamberla1 @ERCOT_ISO Your explanation.

HUGE: Federal judge blocks enforcement of Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's proclamation limiting counties to only one mail-in ballot drop-off location each. https://t.co/wLpKLAV9jK

@ProjectLincoln @TheRickWilson I’m the Democrat and USAF veteran running against Trump’s top enabler Kevin McCarthy. Our big end of quarter deadline is coming up. Help us meet our goal and beat him here: https://t.co/8G5gQ5foCq

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

We stockpile bombs and ammunition for our national security, at huge cost. Why haven’t we stockpiled respirators, masks, and other gear at a fraction of that cost?

[Josh Marshall @joshtpm]

After Birx tries to compare the situation to 1918, President Trump comes in and says it's no comparison because the Spanish Flu had 50% mortality. In fact the Spanish Flu had roughly 2% mortality.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

As a former secretary of labor, I can tell you that we shouldn't be talking about stimulating the economy or going back to work.

We should be talking about shutting down the economy and keeping people home, with enough money so they can pay their bills.

59% of voters in Florida said they trusted @JoeBiden more than @BernieSanders to protect Social Security when in reality Biden tried six times to cut Social Security and Sanders has championed increasing it! People were wrong about this because national media lied to them!

[thot leedurr @DocDre]

My brother got laid off yesterday from Marriott.

He applied for unemployment; they called to check his employment status.

Marriott HR says he’s NOT laid off but on a ZERO hour schedule. So he can’t qualify for unemployment NOR does he have health insurance.

Americans for Prosperity, the Koch dark money pressure group that has spent several hundred million electing Republicans, compiled a list of programs they wanted Congress to cut, which includes CDC funding for global pandemic response & disease prevention https://t.co/jKx6VBCKXB
