Mr. President — stop lying and start acting. Use the full extent of your authorities, now, to ensure that we are producing all essential goods and delivering them where they need to go. https://t.co/uIi1Rxha1C

The intra-Palestinian meeting in Moscow has precedent
— Hanna Notte (@HannaNotte) February 29, 2024
Russia's hosted such meetings in the past, most recently Feb 2019
Russia has long lamented the US' "monopolization" of the peace process & tried to carve out a niche for itself: mediating among the disunited Palestinians/2

A mass expulsion of Afghan migrants could destabilize the region and fuel radicalization. The West should pressure Islamabad to change course.
All eyes on #Chad right now
Chad has two internet trunks coming into the country: One from the Red Sea via Sudan; the other from Cameroon. Not possible for the totality of the country's internet network to be shut unless done centrally. A lot of rumors swirling; few facts. https://t.co/N6bDJZ2ixO

"Both the AU and the intl community place more weight on whether elections are held than whether they are free and fair. Sanctions/expulsions occur when there is a coup but not necessarily when elections are rigged or if an “institutional coup” occurs." https://t.co/m9dNimJP0D

And they are more likely to vote now too. Certainly they'll be likely to vote in November.
Now just pray he has a good immune system and strong lungs if he gets coronavirus.

Or is silence the best weapon?
Maybe the Silent Majority quietly votes Quasimodo out in November to loud bells a-ringing and our national nightmare is (almost) over?

How can you tell? He can't finish a sentence.
It comes to this: I, who schlepped out to the Hamptons to harass Cuomo's Dan Loeb fundraiser back in 2014, who loathes and despises that shriveled stump of a Mario, am longing for the Cuomo Draft.
The horror, the horror....

Edit to add the full interview version as an alternate, in which also talks about Trump and Trump's supposed accusation about missing masks (the gov. finesses that,) the hospital and PPE situation, etc. kudos for Biden and the possibility of Trump baiting him about Biden, Fauci's facts and numbers, breaking down all the fiefdoms of all the area's hospitals into one unified system, and at the end banters humorously a bit more with his bro about not being in the basement under lockdown like mom did and cooking like mom did:

Biden is right to avoid calumny and ask people to do the math.
It is a sort of self limiting case of discrimination. If that doesn't work, nothing else would have either.

Screw the convention - do it remote. It's over, screw Bernie - no time for his (raining on the) parade this year. Yeah we know Biden's flawed, but good enough. If we have that much time, impeach Trump a 2nd/3rd time.

OK, getting serious now:
I would not be surprised if, rather than delaying the convention til August, powers that be change their minds and have a virtual convention as soon as primary voting is finished. In order to be doing a unified attack on Trump ASAP? Note the mention of cabinet choices too. Offer an alternative vision every day?
