@t91902499 Actually, a better analogy is of course I ate the chocolate cake. Because everyone loves chocolate cake, both Democrats and Republicans. Thousands of unmasking requests are made every year whether it’s a Republican or Democratic Administration. — PolitiTweet.org

@SMC41157571 I served on active duty in the United States military to defend your right to say stupid, racist shit. — PolitiTweet.org

@whiter069 Flynn could have (1) remained silent, (2) told the truth, or (3) lied to the FBI. He chose (3). That’s a crime. And he pled guilty to it, twice. — PolitiTweet.org

@NikosCali Did you come up with the hyphen addition to my last name all by yourself? Also, my tweet is accurate and a very good explanation of why there are thousands of requests to unmask. It’s very routine. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Senior officials didn’t know in advance when they made the unmasking request that the person unmasked turned out to be Flynn. They were trying to understand the intelligence reports and unmasking helped them do that. Nothing nefarious whatsoever about these routine requests. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

It would appear that Bill Barr & @TheJusticeDept were either intentionally or negligently misleading Judge Emmet Sullivan. They did not disclose DOJ’s interview with key @FBI official who said his notes about Flynn interview were misinterpreted. More outrageous behavior by Barr. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Even now @realDonaldTrump still can’t explain what Obamagate is. At the same time, over 85,000 Americans have died from #Covid19 in less than 3 months. And @POTUS still doesn’t have a national testing, tracing & isolation plan. That’s a continuing dereliction of duty by Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Dear @realDonaldTrump: Before you recklessly rush to encourage school openings, it would be prudent to first wait for more analysis of how #COVID19 affects children. We can do distance learning. We can get meals to kids. But we cannot bring the dead back to life. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Nothing that Bill Barr & @TheJusticeDept have filed has changed these facts -Michael Flynn lied to @FBI -Flynn lied to Pence -Flynn violated FARA -Flynn pled guilty Pleased Judge Emmet Sullivan has appointed a retired judge to look into this matter. The rule of law is at stake. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

@danpfeiffer CNN sampled 583 voters in 15 battleground states. That works out to less than 40 voters per state. An incredibly small number that appears statistically suspect. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Starting in February, I have repeatedly asked @CDCDirector a simple question, both at a Committee hearing and in letters: what is the error rate for #COVIDー19 tests? To this day, @CDCgov still has not provided a percentage range for the error rates. What are they hiding? — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

This article states #Covid19 had not reached Paul Manafort’s prison, but he was released to home confinement. Yet at places like low security Terminal Island prison in Southern CA, nearly 70% are infected & 7 inmates died. This disparate treatment by @OfficialFBOP is outrageous. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

“Operation Let @realDonaldTrump Speak & Tweet As Much As Possible” has been successful in driving down Trump’s poll numbers. And the view of @POTUS that seniors are expendable in his rush to reopen is badly hurting him in swing states. I agree with @JoeBiden’s current strategy. — PolitiTweet.org

@FrankLuntz Historically in CA, Republicans generally outperform Dems in the vote by mail category. Dems generally end up winning more of the same day votes. — PolitiTweet.org

@evan36198167 No evidence of ballot harvesting whatsoever. Only person charged with something like that was a Republican in North Carolina last term. — PolitiTweet.org

@NijiSin How did you get .02%? The numbers in the link you provided work out to a case fatality rate of about 5.9%. — PolitiTweet.org

@Hoopdata What part of the $3 trillion HEROES Act do you object to? — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

I support vote by mail because it’s a safer alternative during a pandemic. The anecdotal evidence in CA (Dem underperformed) & WI (Dems overperformed) suggests it is not clear whether vote by mail benefits GOP or Dems. An election that is heavily vote by mail may benefit GOP. — PolitiTweet.org

I support vote by mail because it’s a safer alternative during a pandemic. The anecdotal evidence in California and Wisconsin suggests it is not clear whether vote by mail benefits Republicans or Democrats. An election that is heavily vote by mail may tend to benefit Republicans. — PolitiTweet.org

Dear @GOPChairwoman: Your facts are incorrect. America does not lead in per capita testing. We’ve only tested around 3% of our population. US is behind many, many countries in per capita testing, including Spain, Italy, Germany, Portugal, Singapore, Austria, Norway, Australia... — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Dear @realDonaldTrump: California does not meet the standards that YOUR Administration set for phase 1 reopening. Either you should rescind them or you should stop telling states to violate your own standards. Stop confusing the public. This is a ridiculous way for you to govern. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

@DavidrWinston @progressvoice @HumanistReport @BernieSanders That’s factually wrong. From climate change to choice to election security to education to oversight to health care to criminal justice reform to a host of other issues, Christy Smith will have exactly the opposite vote of her Republicans colleagues in Congress. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

The HEROES ACT is what we need to address the scale of the pandemic crisis. We need to help those on the frontlines; create a safe environment to reopen; and get stimulus funds into the hands of the American people. — PolitiTweet.org
