As millions of Americans celebrated @potus's inauguration, some of my former colleagues in the health insurance industry were quietly celebrating some news of their own: their *most profitable year ever*. That’s right: insurance companies made a fortune during a pandemic. (1/11)

You should be suspicious when a former FBI head does not want prosecuted one of the most brazen and abhorrent attacks on the US in modern history.
Former FBI Director Comey: President Trump should be convicted by the Senate, but not criminally prosecuted for inciting Capitol rioters, adding that it would give America space to “heal.” on.msnbc.com/2LFDCxO

There’s no requirement that the inauguration be public. As @LilianaSegura pointed out, were also in the worst throws of a pandemic. Cancel the big public event. Do it indoors, on camera.

NEW! #AnatomyofCapitolAttack TURN SOUND ON! I submit this video as evidence in the Impeachment of Donald Trump. Donald Trump engaged in "violent, deadly and seditious acts" which betrayed his trust as President and endangered the security of the United States.

1/10. Whatever happened to protecting monuments and federal property, which seemed so important to our government this summer and fall?

Blatant race-baiting has no place in NJ and I stand with Donnetta and David in denouncing this flier from the Somerset GOP. We won’t allow incendiary rhetoric to go unchallenged, whether it’s coming from the White House or our own communities. insidernj.com/african-americ…

This was the president of the United States telling an armed street gang to "stand by." And here is the gang's predictable reaction.
The Proud Boys on Telegram have now posted an image with its logo and Trump's remark. teapawt.net/NikkiMcR/status/131112…

In tonight’s presidential debate the President said the “Portland Sheriff” supports him. As the Multnomah County Sheriff I have never supported Donald Trump and will never support him.

So let me get this straight: it's ok for billionaires to get tax breaks for haircuts and "consulting fees" to their kids, but letting middle class homeowners continue to deduct our state and local taxes is a "blue state bailout?"

“The government should NOT be talking about state officials making retributions. We should not hear the administration urging violence. We are in the middle of the pandemic. RNC was in violation of the Hatch Act.” - @Jasonintrator

“If an opening comes in the last year of President Trump’s term, and the primary process has started, we’ll wait till the next election.” —Judiciary Chairman Graham (R-SC) in 2018

"A public health crisis in a weak democracy such as our own can be used to bring it down." ("Our Malady: Lessons in Liberty from a Hospital Diary," p. 100) Discussing #OurMalady here with @camanpour
Historian @TimothyDSnyder: “The history of electoral interference is long – 2016’s not the only example. It’s rare, though, to have a president… who seems to want more of it. And that’s where we are… That’s part of the test that our democracy’s going to face in November.”

Healthcare is a human right. If we don't think about our health when we talk about freedom, other people are going to think about our bodies as a way to profit and to control our future. Discussing my new book, #OurMalady: Lessons in Liberty from a Hospital Diary, with @camanpour
Historian @TimothyDSnyder says that, in America, "we die too often, we die too early – and not just during pandemics. But more than that: we’re anxious and fearful all the time, because we don’t know if we’re going to have access to healthcare.”

The worse the conditions, the better for the tyrant: from Leninists to Putinists, one tactic has remained the same — let people suffer, transform the anger into killing, blame conspiracies for your own deeds, and benefit from the chaos. My latest piece: washingtonpost.com/opinions/…
