Why is @TheJusticeDept and AG Barr fighting so hard to hide this information? — PolitiTweet.org

Dear @realDonaldTrump: Michigan does not meet the standards YOU set for phase 1 reopening. Michigan has not had a 14 day downward trajectory of #COVID__19. Your inconsistent actions is one reason your approvals are down. Stop flip flopping. Stop confusing the American people. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

@KenLee50769737 @RepBarragan @OfficialFBOP Over 64,000 Americans have already died in less than two months from #COVID__19, and that is likely an undercount. #FactsMatter — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Over 50% of the inmates at Terminal Island prison, a low-security facility, are infected with #Covid_19. This likely constitutes cruel & unusual punishment. @RepBarragan & I are now requesting @OfficialFBOP to release all inmates to home confinement, or compassionate release. https://t.co/IuhoGUaMIU — PolitiTweet.org

Dear @realDonaldTrump: Are you referring to Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin? In 2018, Dems won every statewide seat in those states. The “something” you get for the funds is saving lives & jobs. For all Americans. You are the President for the United States. Act like it. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

What reality is @realDonaldTrump living in? Over 63,000 Americans have already died from #COVID19 in less than two months, the highest in the world. And @POTUS is “proud”? And in deaths per million, US is ahead of Germany, Turkey, Iran, Canada, Australia, Norway, South Korea ... — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Unacceptable that @IHME_UW keeps putting out wrong info. This is model used by @POTUS. They got 60k deaths by Aug 4 wrong. We are over 63k deaths. They now say 72.5k deaths by Aug 4. They *know* that’s wrong based on new cases and 3 week lag in deaths. We will exceed 73k in May. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Dear @realDonaldTrump: It was YOUR Administration that created the #COVID__19 test. First version failed. That’s why tests were “broken.” Because your Administration screwed up. Stop making up stuff. You are the President. Act like it. Accept responsibility for your mistakes. — PolitiTweet.org

On this, I agree with @realDonaldTrump. cc: @TuckerCarlson — PolitiTweet.org

@FreeTradesman @realDonaldTrump Did you miss the bipartisan law for nearly $500 billion in assistance that we passed last week? Or the three laws we passed last month to address this pandemic? — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Dear @realDonaldTrump: Can you please focus? More than 61,000 Americans have died in less than two months from #COVID19. We need much more testing and PPE to stop the spread of the virus. Also, #BeBest. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Government, thank goodness, thinks differently. Multiple states have sentencing enhancements if victim is a senior citizen as well as elder abuse laws. Why? Because the first duty of government is to protect all its people, including older Americans. Seniors are not expendable. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Dear @realDonaldTrump: Your magical thinking & downplaying of the virus has led to over 61,000 American deaths from #COVID19. Please learn from your mistakes. Saying the virus is gonna leave doesn’t make it go away. But more testing & PPE would help stop its spread. Please focus. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Dear @TheJusticeDept Barr: You said we were politicizing hydroxychloroquine. We were looking at facts. You said media was on a jihad against the drug. They were reporting facts. You & @realDonaldTrump were wrong about the drug. My #AskAGBarr question: Are you going to apologize? — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

My parents are not expendable. Senior citizens across America are not expendable. The callousness of some Republicans and those on the right with regards to human life is appalling. The first duty of government is to protect its people, and that includes senior citizens. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

False positives is another reason we need to know the error rate for #COVID19 tests. It has been 2 months in which I repeatedly asked @CDCDirector for the information. We cannot adequately plan if we don’t know the error rate for tests. My new letter requesting an answer asap. https://t.co/zSD3OSCdJJ — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Dear @IHME_UW: Your model is being used by @realDonaldTrump & it is wrong. You need to fix it. You got the 60k deaths by Aug wrong. You then revised to 74k by Aug. YOU KNOW THAT IS A GROSS UNDERESTIMATION. Based on new cases & three week lag in deaths, we will exceed 74k in May. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

I urge @realDonaldTrump to stop relying on faulty @IHME_UW model. It was wrong about 60k deaths by Aug 4. We’ve already exceeded that number. Two days ago they revised up to 74k deaths by Aug 4. That number is also an underestimation. We will exceed 74k deaths in May. — PolitiTweet.org

I believe forcing prisoners to be in settings where they have high exposure to a life-threatening virus constitutes Cruel and Unusual Punishment. As a Member of the Crime SubCommittee on @HouseJudiciary, I will be requesting @OfficialFBOP to stop violating the Constitution ASAP. — PolitiTweet.org

@thequiethit #COVID19 has already killed 60k Americans in two months. That’s far worse than the flu. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

@Thisist96840494 @realDonaldTrump That would depend on the data. For example, the current data shows hydroxychloroquine isn’t effective in treating #COVID19 patients. Remdesivir shows greater promise. — PolitiTweet.org
