Lifting the mask mandate on planes is a mistake. But it symbolizes where we are with Covid — you better hope that you have a great mask to protect yourself from others. — PolitiTweet.org

This week seems like the time to remind everyone that the epic Walt Kelly battle cry in Pogo --"We Have Met the Enemy and He Is Us" -- was originally for a 1970 Earth Day poster: https://t.co/fhR0lvrCWh — PolitiTweet.org

It is worth remembering that newspapers like the Times would 70 years ago run summaries of Sunday sermons by leading mid-century clergymen. — PolitiTweet.org

@BobBron1 You forget that I was dealing with Twitter's 280- character limits. I had 11 characters to spare and using the bill's formal title would have used 8 of those characters. So how could I then describe the bill in 3 characters? — PolitiTweet.org

A clever @JillDLawrence column pointing out that each time a GOP-controlled state like Florida approves a law of dubious constitutionality like "Don't Say Gay", it costs the state tens of millions in legal costs defending these unwinnable cases. https://t.co/BP2UkdAHzP — PolitiTweet.org

Beyond the righteous of the Ukrainian cause, beyond the horrors of Russian war crimes, this is an amazing use of rhetoric in just 80 seconds. Everyone who cares about breaking through the wall of indifference about anything should study it and similar Zelensky speeches. — PolitiTweet.org

The most powerful piece that I have read so far on this horrible topic. A brutalized Ukrainian woman recalls that her mother told her naively, "This is not a war like that, they don’t exist anymore, they are from old movies." Sadly, no. https://t.co/bh7PMhkE8O — PolitiTweet.org

Part of the problem is to too many media assignment editors and columnists inflation is exciting (first time since the early 1980s) while low unemployment is boring (oh, that again). That launches constant articles about how can you protect yourself against dread 7-8% inflation. — PolitiTweet.org
