It's truly amazing, and horrifying, that face masks — a cheap, minimal precaution in a pandemic — have become a front in the culture wars 1/ https://t.co/4Ez50URdNj — PolitiTweet.org

Did they really not know what Juneteenth was? I don’t believe it. You couldn’t get all the way to scheduling a rally w/out someone pointing it out. No, this was deliberate signaling 1/ https://t.co/akXvCgxAEE — PolitiTweet.org

As masks have become a front in the culture war, I find myself thinking about pellagra — a disease related to poor nutrition. Two decades elapsed between diagnosis and an effective response, because the diagnosis was treated as an affront to Southern pride https://t.co/g5ZtYtUgr1 — PolitiTweet.org

The only suspense is over whether people who were somehow oblivious to the reality of where the modern right was going are going to be willing, finally, to see what's right in front of their noses. 3/ — PolitiTweet.org

The thing is, everything happening falls under the category of shocking but not surprising. We knew who Trump was; if you were paying attention, you knew what the GOP was at least since the early 2000s. 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

I continue to get emails from an alternative reality. On Earth-1, few if any of the people arrested at demonstrations have been associated with Antifa, there has been almost no violence except by police and right-wing militias, and little looting since the first few days https://t.co/8uSVmm8TNB — PolitiTweet.org

My fairly upbeat view on recovery was predicated on getting the virus under control. What's happening now is that we're reopening much of the country without having brought infection rates down enough or establishing test-trace-isolate. If there's a 2nd wave, all bets are off 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

Pretty good retail report. Fwiw, I've been arguing for some time that recovery from the Covid recession could look more like "morning in America" than the slow recovery from the 2008 crisis — but with one big caveat 1/ https://t.co/47GXqDR04B — PolitiTweet.org

The FT has a long piece on how South Korea keeps Covid-19 contained. It involves a sustained level of vigilance that we seem utterly incapable of achieving here. Deeply depressing for America's prospects https://t.co/9YHCL6hfvw — PolitiTweet.org
