To make progress, we must stop treating our opponents as our enemy.
We are not enemies. We are Americans.
The intra-Palestinian meeting in Moscow has precedent

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

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

Meanwhile, 3 hrs. ago, Bernie tweeted a 10 minute video speech in which explains actual very specific points he is going to fight for as a Senator that he says MUST be done in the first 100 days of the Biden administration. Jumping the gun as it were, before they can get to it, no Biden-Harris generalities for him. He uses the words "bold and "aggressively" several times:

I am VERY encouraged by what I have seen so far; this is spin of a kind and very good spin! It seems as if they are keeping up with the vacancies and chaos in the Trump administration and are timing their announcements of cabinet to coincide. First I thought I might be imagining it, but it's happened too many times now. This is the "help is on the way" message, it is pre-emptive messaging not just to the whole country but the whole world, to stop anything from tumbling down too much more. I.E.. don't worry, Americans, hold on tight, these grownups will arrive soon; and to the rest of the world: ignore the clowns, things will be back to normal soon, and you bad actors better not try anything in the interim or you'll be sorry...
