Sad to hear about the demise of the Post Pub, the likes of which we'll never see again. All those long hours over all those years on 15th Street, we could always retire across the way after deadline for cold beer, greasy food and newspaper camaraderie. https://t.co/Y83O2tciqn — PolitiTweet.org

While cases are on the rise, the coronavirus appears to be killing fewer of the people it infects. April and May saw as many as 3,000 deaths per day, now it's closer to 600. Is that a lagging indicator or are other factors at work? ⁦@KatherineJWu⁩ https://t.co/1KOPX46sDi — PolitiTweet.org

The US economy added 4.8 million jobs in June, the second month of strong gains after a loss of more than 20 million in April when the pandemic put a large swath of economic activity on ice. But the survey was taken before the latest spikes in many states. https://t.co/CJr8aSfKSr — PolitiTweet.org
