So happy to meet and chat with @jrpsaki today in the @MeetThePress conference room! She's somehow more articulate and bright off the podium?! I felt genuinely inspired by some of her sentiments.
@HannaannahE @MeetThePress@Tom_Winter From a Dem... Do you have a percentage for the Republicans that are silent, joking, etc.? Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) was called out on @MeetThePress as warning of the violence. Good for her!
@rogerlayton9@MeetThePress Did I miss something @rogerlayton9? I didn't see @MeetThePress making claims without evidence. Are you disputing that some campaign ads aren't suggestive of violence? Remove party labels and names and watch the ads without bias.. clearly they have violent undertones at a min.
WATCH: Threats against Speaker Pelosi (D-Calif.) have “been going on for years,” but it’s now “gone viral and it went violent,” Sen. @amyklobuchar (D-Minn.) says.
“Many people have stayed silent during this time. Not Liz Cheney, not Adam Kinzinger, within their own party.”
Good Sunday morning —
Targeted violence is not new in U.S. politics: 11 presidents have been direct targets of assassins.
But since the 2016 election, the number of recorded threats against members of Congress has increased more than ten-fold, to 9,625 last year.
TODAY: An exclusive sit-down with @GovChrisSununu (R-N.H.) on the upcoming midterms and the state of the GOP.
Plus, Sen. @amyklobuchar (D-Minn.) joins #MTP to discuss the attack on Paul Pelosi and growing threats of political violence.
Heidi Rehm - VUS are not all alike. Large study (on MedRxiv) comparing VUS rates from panels and exome/genomes. Much higher rate of VUS on panels. Overall 1/3 of test results now have a VUS on the report. Is that a good thing and reconsidering how we report VUS. #ASHG22
“I want you to watch Nancy Pelosi hand me that gavel. It will be hard not to hit her with it…”
- Kevin McCarthy
The assailant who attacked Paul Pelosi was looking for Nancy.
And he brought a hammer.
⚠️BREAKING—CDC now confirms my scoop that super evasive #BQ1 & #BQ11 variants (Typhon & Cerberus) have meteorically surged from *unlisted* 3 weeks ago, to 11% 2 weeks ago—to ⬆️now suddenly 27% today! This is a bad 10-day doubling time! 🇬🇧’s #BQ ~30% too🧵

This is bullshit and, more importantly, it’s dangerous of @TheWharfDC to post such a message amid a looming #COVID wave. For the sake of public health, we need to #BoycottTheWharfDC.
Mayor @MurielBowser needs to do something. @MayorBowser—you are elected to protect the public.
@DrEricDing@yunlong_cao N of 1 suggests bivalent vaccine works. I'm traveling with folks who all came down with covid. My bivalent vaccine was 3 weeks ago and I seem to have escaped Covid. (I'm an ID PhD/molecular assay developer.)
