@sandibachom He will—when his backers question his competency. But, by then, they will have ensconced a successor to keep the power in place.

@ChrisDJackson Most qualified cabinet of my lifetime.

[Margaret Whalen @mdw1961]

@Matt_Pinner Of course. And it’s my husband and son who use it the most.

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

The "Dept of Efficiency" is Monty Python level satire.

@Angry_Staffer She comes from a very very red district. Deep Trump cult. Not likely to be a Dem able to win it. And she’ll be awful as our UN Rep.

@leahmcelrath They are being shown doing what most of us are doing—spending time with just the people we love and trust. Doesn’t mean there are not moments of sadness, anger, despair.

@PatriotJ My brother did.

@thefempire50 @BraddrofliT Plus this idea of life insurance would lead to insurance fraud charges against women who miscarry.

@PringleCat2 @ksmith9105 @RadioFreeTom Once they aren’t mandatory, insurance will stop covering any of the costs. Vaccines will become too expensive for way too many people.

@clairebubblepop It also shows we have a much bigger problem than just Trump. This attitude didn’t just spring up oost election

@bambihutt Vote in 2025. Local elections matter

[Margaret Whalen @mdw1961]

@The_Acumen That’s gerrymandering. If they know their district is secure, they don’t have to pay any attention to it.

@NHJennifer Just scooped out some phish food myself. Hoping this will be a celebratory treat instead of a sheetcaking substitute.

@twitchyspoonie My goal through this has been to be able to participate in the studies as a member of the control group. Disappointed there are so few studies about covid going on though.

@tysonbrody Some of these counties are lying.

If you think the pandemic's over, you're badly wrong.

This is the staff absence rate for the seventh largest employer in the world.

See the consistency of the absence rate leading up to the pandemic...

Look at how it changed in 2020.

And see where it's going *now*.

@pmccartt @HC_Richardson To be fair, it’s possible his mother lied to inflate her own story and he just never thought to fact check her

[Margaret Whalen @mdw1961]

@FDelicioso @FPWellman I’d say he was smug and manipulative and insincerely polite. He’s done that to evade consequences before.

[Margaret Whalen @mdw1961]

@joshtpm If it was a summer job, she likely did not make enough money to have to file a tax return.

[Margaret Whalen @mdw1961]

@sandibachom I’m sure there is some way that no one actually receives the money. It’s a scam.
