Does our government need an industry that wastes its citizens’ money paying smart people to make each other look stupid? And then over time repels smart people from government? It makes no sense. Let’s pay smart people to do important jobs that make everyone’s lives better.

@TheRabbiKohl @AnnLesbyPhD this annlesby is a fake account. "lesby"? get the joke? wow. i've been off twitter for a while but it's even worse than i thought.

This. This. And this.

You're a #QAnon believer, and wondering why my account is on the list of people to avoid. Good question. After all, one thing we all agree on is that the exploitation of kids is the worst thing. One big difference between me and Ron W? I've *actually* fought that fight. Thread:

@patriottakes OMG. Wow. I didn’t realize it was this funny.

@ZTPetrizzo He’s right about the towels. The election, not so much.

I’m super annoyed by Bannon’s tan. #bannon #contempt #BannonContempt

It’s sad that someone can say this and it’s true but somehow it will be interpreted in such a way that she is a sham or a shill for saying it in these words.

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

The right to vote is the beating heart of our democracy.
The filibuster isn’t even part of the Constitution—in fact, the founders specifically rejected requiring super-majorities to pass bills.
We can’t let Mitch McConnell have veto power over access to the ballot box.

Everyone has gotten really dumb and insane.

[Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing]

Today, every member of the Senate Minority voted against simply opening debate on the #FreedomToVoteAct, which would strengthen our democratic process. This is a disappointment, but we cannot and will not stop working to preserve and defend the flame of democracy. My statement:

Are we supposed to not cover our mouths anymore when we sneeze because it’s not 100% effective? #covidiocy

@elizableu This article was unbearable to read. Still thinking about it.

@sarahbeth345 Eating outside in the rain is cruelty? At Montessori/homeschools they did that pre-Covid. I’m not seeing how this is a big deal. I won’t bore anyone with the conditions that children all over the world endure to be educated. It is a temporary situation and not that bad.

@HeathMayo This is honestly the worst legacy of Trump. Normalizing and exalting this kind of expression. There was a time when even the worst politicians were held to a standard of communication. All that is gone. Pretty soon we will do nothing but mock great communicators.

[Meredith DiMenna @meredithdimenna]

@ryanlcooper Except that people still do have the right to vote and way more ways of doing it than they have in the past. Also states control a lot of it so there’s only so much that the executive branch can do.

[Meredith DiMenna @meredithdimenna]

Fuck Rahm Emanuel.

[Patrick Chovanec @prchovanec]

A lot of people seize on statements that the vaccine "cannot prevent" either infection or transmission (or even hospitalization) as evidence the vaccine is ineffective. But many, many things we consider effective work by substantially reducing risk, rather than eliminating it.

[Cheri Jacobus @CheriJacobus]

I was a political pundit for about 18 years, logging in a few thousand appearances on FOX, MSNBC, CNN and other venues. I was at FOX studios a couple times a week during 2015, and was alarmed at the changes in the summer and fall of 2015 before Trump ordered them to ban me. 1/7

@janagatien73 This represents the the definition of an anecdote.

@DonnaNeedham10 I’d be really surprised if these were in the city council in NYC.

[Meredith DiMenna @meredithdimenna]

@DonnaNeedham10 Seriously where are these statues? These are hysterical!

[Meredith DiMenna @meredithdimenna]

This empty shelves thing is bullshit. Still haven’t seen one in six states.
