Incredible scene at Colorado’s Capitol right now. Thousands of protesters are lying face down with their hands behind their backs chanting “I can’t breathe.” They’re doing this for 9 mins. #copolitics #denverprotest #GeorgeFloyd

Now more than ever, we need the truth. And the truth is that Donald Trump dismantled the infrastructure handed to him which was meant to plan for and overcome a pandemic, resulting in unnecessary deaths and economic disaster.

WHO isn’t going to warn you. CDC isn’t going to test you. FDA isn’t going to cure you. FEMA isn’t going to feed you. Save yourself.

The virus makes us fear for our health. It imprisons us in our homes and steals our productive time. The virus makes us value our health. It delivers us to our homes and gives us free time. Let’s become the healthiest we’ve ever been.

I’m confused. How did we conclude that the best way to prepare kids for the future is to cluster them into a setting where they are organized by age, into grades, and forced to learn the same things, at the same time and pace, 7 hours a day, 5 days a week, for 12 + years? Huh?

I’ve watched all of his shots a million times, he brought this out of a bag nobody seen. After the game I ran into him in the hallway, I said, Kob you didn’t have to hit me with the lefty fade. He said, “I made over 30k points in my career, think I ain’t made any wit the Left Q?”
Hurt his right shoulder so he shot it with his left... different

There are good reasons for bottled water to exist -- disaster relief, etc. -- but making it a part of daily life is maybe the most insane thing we've ever done?

After hours of debate, one thing is clear: My Republican colleagues don't want to defend the President's conduct. They haven't argued that he did, in fact, uphold his oath of office. Because President Donald J. Trump's abuse of power and obstruction of Congress is indefensible.
