@POTUS Normalize masking and testing. Lead that by example. Continue to fund research and access to healthcare, masks, and tests. I’m sorry, but the pandemic is still around and almost worse now that we are collectively pretending like it we’re past it and ditching precautions.

It’s not to stop hackers.

It’s to stop bad things from happening when you accidentally turn the webcam on when you’re working from home.

Thread: A president under investigation for impeachment has never appointed a Justice. Not Nixon, not Clinton, not Andrew Johnson. Never.
Democrats should make clear that if the GOP destroys this tradition, they will expand the Court to 15 in 2021 without filibuster.
