Now it appears that airborne #coronavirus is contagious. Sixty choir members breathed deeply and sang; 45 got #Covid_19 or its symptoms; two died. My story, from Mount Vernon, Wash. https://t.co/O6MtXROzSn

@_Brad_Schmidt Pete Hegseth maybe?

@propublica Thank you, ProPublica, for this important investigative work in identifying these two officers and making their names public.

@GavinNewsom Ugh.

@congressdj @alistairkitchen Not true, actually. Even North Korea let me in a second time after critical reporting during my first visit.

@thehill Cheers, Kegseth!🍻

@frankieboy1 @gtconway3d Maroon?

Far fewer Trump signs.
I just drove across Utah, Arizona and Nevada on my way home to Seattle and prepared to keep careful count. Only one Trump sign and one bumper sticker the entire road trip. (No Harris signs either, but that might be expected in red states).
Once I reached southern Oregon there were more Trump signs, but still not as many there as 2016 and 2020. I’m curious about the significance of the paucity of signs. It was striking.

@JayWeber3 Time to reevaluate all that you stand for and reset your moral compass.

@Kimbriell I am so sorry, Kimbriell. I have no doubts that you’ll land on your feet. Congrats on a great run.

@jessicamartinez Congratulations, Jessica! 🎉

@farhip What a crock. New lows in “journalism.”

[Laurence Tribe 🇺🇦 ⚖️ @tribelaw]

Watch this case! It’s likely to be the one that gets to the US Supreme Court first and that settles Trump’s eligibility to be president again and to run for the GOP nomination despite Section 3 of the 14th Amendment

@EG_Cunningham @lisadreier A few memories of my trip to Antarctica. The whales came to play. We got to name one with tail markings that no one had reported seeing before. We tried to leave not a trace.

[Richard Read @RichReadReports]

@EG_Cunningham @lisadreier I was awed by Antarctica too. I met people on our small cruise ship from around the world who cared to visit a hauntingly beautiful place. They respected wildlife. Many collected samples for researchers. We returned ready to work in our own ways for Antarctica’s preservation.
