[Joe Scarborough @ScarboroughNow]

The debate between public health and business is a false choice. Halfway measures on public health will only lengthen the pandemic’s grip and cause additional pain to American businesses. The President’s best chance to shorten the crisis is by imposing severe restrictions now.

[Archive: Governor Andrew Cuomo @NYGovCuomo]

If it’s public health versus the economy, the only choice is public health. You cannot put a value on human life.

You do the right thing. That’s what Pop taught us @ChrisCuomo

[Mark Cuban @mcuban]

BOTH OF YOU NEED TO DO YOUR FUCKING JOB! @SenSchumer, stop kissing progressive ass. We can't solve every problem in this deal🍑 @JohnCornyn , stop kissing big corporate ass. They don't need buybacks or exec bonuses. They have no choice but to take any deal they can get. 🍑

First day on the job.

[American U. Men's Basketball @AU_MBasketball]

From our last game, when Sa'eed received his @PatriotLeague Player of the Year award and the game ball from when he became our all-time leading scorer.

We're going to miss this guy next season.

@AnthonyMKreis @chrislhayes @chicagosmayor You would think the fact that actual Ireland has cancelled all of theirs MIGHT be a sign that it’s a bad idea

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

.@RudyGiuliani stated very bluntly last night that he personally got Ambassador Yovanovitch fired, and @SecPompeo has not said a word. Dispiriting.

"Nobody can figure out who the eff she is or how she got in there,” a friend of Giuliani said.

Seriously?

Linday Graham just described WhatsApp as a tool “that terrorists use.” WhatsApp has 1.5 billion active users. You might as well describe oxygen as “a gas that terrorists breathe."

An Ex Boyfriend once got me a Fitbit for Christmas. I loved it. We synched up, motivated each other... didn’t hate it until he was unaccounted for at 4am and his physical activity levels were spiking on the app 🥴wish the story wasn’t real.

@JamieReidy Come on bro

[Laurence Tribe 🇺🇦 ⚖️ @tribelaw]

Precise and persuasive proof that Trump’s 9/9/19 “no quid pro quo” call never actually took place

[Jen 'now @jenrubin9' Rubin @JRubinBlogger]

I got a feeling Fiona Hill might be my favorite witness. But BOY does Bolton look rotten for hiding, allowing Ukraine conspiracy and presidential subversion of national security to go unchecked. No patriot and no Russia hawk would behave this way.

[John Joseph Brennan @j_j_b_5]

@JamieReidy @birbigs Illness?

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

If Trump , per Pompeo's claim, was really interested in fighting corruption in Ukraine or U.S.-Ukraine relations, he would have enlisted the DOJ & FBI to act & have used our MLAT treaty with Ukraine to do so. If there any evidence that these channels were used? I've seen none.

[Tea Pain @TeaPainUSA]

FUN FACT: Alabama won 31 straight home games till Trump showed up. https://t.co/QZ9ohI8mHG

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

The corruption associated with @realDonaldTrump is unprecedented in U.S. history.

[John Joseph Brennan @j_j_b_5]

@WSJ @EnesKanter @EnesKanter keep speaking up. You are being heard

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

I’m struck by Trumpworld’s obsession with the whistleblower. Exposing him wouldn’t help Trump’s case a bit. But it’s clear that outing him would be really satisfying psychologically to Trumpsters. One forgets how central to Trumpism are petty vindictiveness and cowardly bullying.

[Jeff Tiedrich @itsJeffTiedrich]

@realDonaldTrump imagine mistaking this frail old frightened man for a leader
