No wonder small businesses aren’t getting financial relief at the height of the pandemic— Republican Congress is living in fantasy land.

What an embarrassment that 100+ GOP members (my party) would sign on to this joke of a lawsuit, perpetuating this myth to their own supporters.

CDC needs to change its age groupings. 18-30 year olds are much greater risk takers than 31-49 but CDC lumps them together (big red bar). Puberty group 12-17 is much different from 5-11 yet lumped together. Who is really making the red bar so large?

As a subscriber to The Star-Ledger on Sunday I receive a section marked Warren Sussex Bergen counties. Yet I live in Passaic County 1/4 mile from Essex County where I spend most of my time when I’m not at home. https://t.co/xlBqLSx7M7 please give me a more relevant news section.

@NRSC This demonstrates how uncreative Republicans are. And how much they envy Democrats.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

This makes me sick to my stomach.

When you watch C-SPAN instead FoxNews, CNN, MSNBC and other channels where the talking heads believe they are more important than political interactions, you learn truths such as Ex-Gov. Chris Christie real view on social distancing.

@TonyCaputo @NJ_MVC @News12NJ As for car inspection, I went to Lodi two days ago after 1pm and there were only 6 cars in front of me—in and out in 12 minutes. Driver test line was perhaps 20 cars.

If and when I return to the traditional practice of law, all my correspondence will be written in this tone and style.

TrumpGate — The UnMasked Man at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue insists on Americans getting back to work and school but he hasn’t restarted White House tours. When will he and Melania mingle with hundreds of visitors?

What kind of country are we? The richest country in the world and there are 2,000 cars lined up in Dallas for food?!? Because our government can’t get it together to take care of everybody during the biggest crisis of our lifetime? It’s absolutely despicable. Embarrassing. Sick.

@realDonaldTrump People who have lost their jobs and their healthcare coverage thank you for raising gas prices.

[David Cannon @cannonism]

@andrewrsorkin As people in America choose which day a family member gets to eat, President Trump pushed Russia and Saudi Arabia for higher oil prices making gasoline more expensive for those in search of food.

@CNBC @BeckyQuick @andrewrsorkin After a tariff war with the US, China wanted a vibrant economy. It should have been a red flag to the Trump administration that it locked down an industrial center. CNBC saw it early —February 4 — (maybe not Joe).

@BriVannozziNJTV My wife & I want to thank you for the terrific job you do under such unusual circumstances — from your nightly comparison of the top 4 states to finding the best way to hold your tablet in FaceTime onscreen interviews to weaving it all together calmly. Kudos!

#CNBCpathforward Isn’t one of the unspoken reasons COVID-19 is so alarming is that the cost to treat patient in a hospital is 20 to 30 times that of treating the flu?

Only two Republicans should be re-elected, Romney and Collins. The other 51 declared that truth and facts are not in their wheelhouse.

Dear @GOPSenate The stance you’re taking against having witnesses at the impeachment trial not only taints your reputation for integrity but castrates the power of the institution of the Senate as well as yourselves. Do not let your fear of Trump subvert your duty to America.
