In reality, Ebola was not as problematic from a public health perspective as coronavirus is now. But it was an extremely tricky problem and legit crisis fed by political opportunism too. It’s a bit hard to see Trump aides take this stand now. — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

We’ve come completely full circle where the conservative narrative is now that the Ebola outbreak in 2014 that sparked mass panic among many conservatives (most notably TRUMP) was NBD. "By comparison, the Ebola outbreak was child’s play,” this article reads. — PolitiTweet.org

@dougstafford @willsommer Does your boss believe that local sheriffs in Kentucky have the constitutional right to disobey the gov’s orders if they feel they are in violation of their oath? — PolitiTweet.org

Gonna be interesting to see folks argue that the cruise line industry simply couldn’t go bankrupt and needed a bailout but actual states should go that route. — PolitiTweet.org

NEW — A number of sheriffs across the country are simply refusing to enforce stay at home orders, setting up potentially dicey conflicts with the governors of their states. https://t.co/b8iagKNdOm Via @willsommer — PolitiTweet.org

@brad_polumbo I apologize for the term unequivocally. Please tell @TPCarney to love me again — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

@brad_polumbo I’m sorry that the term “Stacking” is considered pejorative. It was not meant that way. But the idea that this is merely a constitutional obligation for him is silly. He sees it as a political objective too. Who are we kidding? — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

@brad_polumbo man. I guess I don’t understand the complaint here. McConnell has openly talked about transforming the courts; encouraged older sitting judges to step down to appoint younger ones; and talked about reshaping the judiciary as his ultimate legacy. I thought it was a pt of pride! — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

This could all change of course but it looks like a remarkable bit of political malpractice for trump to have associated himself with these end the lockdown movements. They're widely unpopular across basically all polls. — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

@dougstafford There is certainly a robust debate on his methods. That's no secret. But I was merely commenting on his appetites — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

@dougstafford Damn. You prompted me to look at the reactions to my tweet and I'm surprised at how many conservatives are upset that I'd point out that McConnell is extremely committed and focused on judges. This is his own selling point! — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

@dougstafford It's hardly a take. I thought McConnell's team took pride in his monomaniacal focus on the judiciary. It's a common point emphasize by both he and Trump that they're filling every vacancy available and proud of it. I'm merely dramatizing their commitment — PolitiTweet.org

I read pieces like the below and realize just how little of our current coverage has been about the dead. Part of it, I have to imagine, is because the virus remains so unknown and threatening and the govt’s response so unpredictable that they grab the headlines. But still. — PolitiTweet.org

The only acceptable squad without Jordan here would be something like Reggie, Bird, Shaq Stockton and Pippen (to guard Jordan). That would work in the modern era game. Other than that, you have to buy MJ, who should be priced at $6 — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell paces around his home, sweating, the scratch marks from his nervous itching evident on his cheeks. He turns to Elaine Chao. His eyes are red. "I NEED TO FILE A GODDAMN CLOTURE VOTE ON A DISTRICT COURT JUDGE. I NEED IT. JUST FIND SOMEONE FOR ME!” He falls to the floor. — PolitiTweet.org
