Probably the best thing you'll see today.
In 2017, a group of developers hilariously competed for who could create worst volume control interface in the world.

Putin is not only an autocrat who initiated an illegal & immoral war against Ukraine, he's the leader of an oligarchic kleptocracy that's stolen billions from the Russian people. In Russia, ordinary people struggle while Oligarchs make out like bandits – which they are. (1/14)

I get a lot of push-back on this but I'll say this again. Trust people & don't focus on the occasional cutting in line. A vaccine is a vaccine, and the worst scenario is not incorrect order but slow rollout and wasted vaccines. Remove the bureaucracy and complicated verification.

BEING AN OUTSIDER
So I went from being mentioned in Clinton's book, Ron Klain writing a blurb for my book, to blocked by Klain and out of Clinton world.
Those are the kind of high-level connections I left behind when I moved unapologetically left.
And it's well worth it.

For people wondering why House Democratic leaders would be launching an attack on the Squad out of the gate, consider the math and the new power balance:
Dems will have a much smaller majority in 2021, maybe 8 or 9 seats. Think about what that means:/1 theintercept.com/2020/11/06/…

Quite the exchange on Crossfire with Donald Trump in 1987 when asked what books he reads.

The way this works is that a loud group of protesters angrily heckling an elected official on a public street is abhorrent and threatening, but masked gunmen menacing legislators inside the state capitol is peaceful protest.

If you agree that Seattle police should NEVER use chemical weapons, rubber bullets, blast balls, or chokeholds on ordinary people and protest movements, will you

A notable shift downward in projected deaths from coronavirus is already being spun as "experts were wrong!!" instead of "hey, the thing experts said would drive down deaths might be driving down deaths."

When this is finally over, @FoxNews, @seanhannity, Rush Limbaugh, @LouDobbs, @JudgeJeanine, @IngrahamAngle, @larry_kudlow, and the rest of the right-wing noise machine will have been complicit in the unnecessary deaths of tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of Americans.

Harris, Booker, Warren, Gilibrand cosponsor Medicare for All.
Left attacks them endlessly for hedging about a few politically toxic provisions with almost no policy value or chance of ever passing.
Left-- why aren't they allies I guess they most have been lying?

So here's what appears to be chain of events:
The Trump administration repatriated infected Americans over the objections of the CDC.
HHS then sent federal workers to interact with the infected population without adequate training or protection

This is must-read thread. Our system is absolutely barbaric. Anyone who votes against #MedicareForAll enables this. Most Americans can’t believe other countries cover all healthcare costs (and pay less!). Because we’ve been trained to believe the system is supposed to be brutal.

The GOP knows it's up against meek Democratic leaders.
No consequences for anyone defying subpoenas. No #Barr impeachment. No #Kavanaugh impeachment.
#Impeachment-lite for Trump focused solely on #Ukraine, with weeks of hearings to "prove" what Trump openly admitted.
