.@usatoday editorial: It is particularly egregious that the Senate would try to rush through a Supreme Court nomination even as it has been unable to pass another relief bill for the millions suffering because of the coronavirus pandemic. https://t.co/oxsop1YLY2 @usatodayopinion
Donald Trump is pro-life, except for the 200,000 Americans he let die in six months of the pandemic, and the thousands more who will die with no health insurance if he overturns Obamacare with no replacement.
@Moreskyplease@ddiamond Using $300 million swiped from the CDC!
Disgraceful.
PR instead of public health during a pandemic.
Want to save American lives, lots of them?
Vote blue. Vote Biden.
@ddiamond This should be absolutely illegal. This is an in-kind contribution to the Trump campaign just weeks before the election. These folks are just criminals.
200,000 Americans are dead and they want us to feel happy. This isn’t morning in America—this is mourning in America.
@ddiamond@maggieNYT Medical first responders: we are still having huge issues getting N95 masks and flu season is fast approaching
HHS : we got $250,000,000 of funding
Medics : awesome that will pay for a lot of equipment
HHS : we’re giving it to Dennis Quaid to tell America things are fine
sorry little timmy, you should have exercised more personal responsibility when you were diagnosed with cystic fibrosis as an infant. now your parents have to liquidate their life savings to pay for your treatment.
“We are increasingly seen as an object of pity including by our allies. We’re the ones creating all this, it’s the not the Russians, the Chinese or anyone else; we’re doing this to ourselves."

Cowardice is contagious. But so is bravery. @OliviaTroye, VP Pence’s top aide on the coronavirus task force, is the latest Trump official to come forward and talk about what she saw—that Trump ignored experts, downplayed the virus and cost lives. Watch. @RVAT2020
should be said that “deaths don’t look so bad if you remove blue states” is cousin to” trump won the popular vote if you remove california.”
whole lot of right-wing discourse rests on the idea that if your state elects democrats you’re outside the legitimate political community.
Someone emailed me to defend Trump saying “his means and methods are unconventional,” which to my mind is a strange way of saying “would happily sacrifice you and your entire family if it would win him a single additional vote.”
