@anthony_schutz I find it very informative that every politician who argues for less taxes, are the ones who can afford to pay their taxes. And, of course, the ones who stand to benefit the most....

The Governor already had COVID. He doesn't need no stinkin' vaccines....

Update: Iowa is actually looking pretty good now!

@AdamThimmesch Not at all. This was a highlight for the ages....it was a beautiful poem and a beautiful reading. I'm definitely a fan. Thanks for sharing.

In a ceremony full of great moments, this was my favorite. (Not really going out on a limb with this opinion, I'm sure.)

Paid for with grant money or out of operating budget?

[Schutz @anthony_schutz]

I love my University and it’s research. But what did this cost, what possible return, and what budgetary woes are we currently in?

[Gus Hurwitz @GusHurwitz]

@JamesFTierney @anthony_schutz I worry you have confused "cynical" for "considered."

I expect Trump will announce a nom (a conservative minority), to win minority votes, force dem senators to criticize a minority, and force Biden to announce who we would nom (dividing dems).

Now _that_ is cynicism.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg fought to the end, through her cancer, with unwavering faith in our democracy and its ideals. That’s how we remember her. But she also left instructions for how she wanted her legacy to be honored. My statement: https://t.co/Wa6YcT5gDi

I'm very sad to hear about the passing of my parents' good friend, and my father's wonderful colleague, Justice Ginsburg. May her memory be a blessing. I'd like to share a couple of passages that convey what she meant to my dad.../3

Ok, Twitter — pull up a chair, and buckle up for a wild, bizarre, hilarious story...

[John Lewis @repjohnlewis]

Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. #goodtrouble

True terror is to wake up one morning and discover that your high school class is running the country.

Don't be reckless with other people's hearts, and don't put up with people that are reckless with yours.

If people think nature is their friend, then they sure don't need an enemy.

In a democracy, people usually get the kind of government they deserve.
