IS THERE ROOM FOR ELON MUSK’S THIRD PARTY IN AMERICA? @m_mas: "The message that he is bringing is not one that is likely to bring any significant percentage of the population to the table to vote kind of for something as opposed to just against it."

Want to recognize and thank @ColumbiaCoDOH for your considerate, effective, and efficient contact tracing work. Like many Depts of Health, you probably dont get much credit for trying to help thousands of people avoid and recover from COVID. Thanks!

If I learned one simple thing from today, it's this: It's nice to be important. But it's more important to be nice.

Powerful to see a man rise to the moment the way @JoeBiden just did. He has found a simple framing of this election as light vs dark, hope vs fear, decency vs self-interest. The Trump campaign might even agree.

Biden’s framing stands above policy, making it easier for progressives to align. It is grounded in faith, family, and dignity, three core ideas for many Republicans, making it easier for them to support him. 2/3

And it acknowledges identity but focuses on universal principles rather than identity politics, which will make it harder for the Trump campaign to attack. I had thought there was too much about Biden the man during the convention, but his speech made it all make sense. 3/3

Have to say i miss the panel of pundits. Cuomo and Kristin Urquiza were great. Rest feels overly depressing and overproduced. Joining Joe should feel more like Clinton ‘92 or Obama ‘08. not a disaster response telethon #DNC2020convention

It can be hard to find the right things to say to your team when everything is so crazy. I start by trying to understand how my team feels. These are some lessons I've learned over the years which I think are particularly important now. linkedin.com/pulse/right-wor… via @LinkedIn
