A piece like this could so easily be grim and scoldy (and she would be within her rights!) Instead, from the very first paragraph, she tells the story with humor and surreal detail: https://t.co/wMAoapP4rn https://t.co/0ngunbnskE — PolitiTweet.org

"Every night in the coronavirus era has its mood. If that first Friday was one of prophylactics and camaraderie, Saturday was haunted." This essay by Darcy Courteau, who's delivering food during the pandemic is one of the best things I've read recently: https://t.co/wMAoapP4rn — PolitiTweet.org

"Of all the things we still don’t know about SARS-CoV-2—how far can it travel through the air? What treatments can tame it? How many people will it kill?—the number of people who might have been infected with the virus in January has held a special allure" https://t.co/FvX8Vrmt9e — PolitiTweet.org

This is wild. Two Utah businesses instructed staff to ignore quarantine guidelines, resulting in 68 cases. At one of the businesses, half of the employees got it. https://t.co/zi4qxgKdHF — PolitiTweet.org

@Jbroks86 @varadmehta @matt_knee Yeah, I basically agree with that, though I still have questions about the mechanism of depriving them of influence. (Will GOP candidates not be taking checks from NeverTrump donors in the future?) — PolitiTweet.org

(Of course, there's a broader discussion to be had about how much influence any DC strategists/pundits—pro-Trump, anti-Trump, and in between—will have on the future of the GOP. But that goes beyond the current moment.) — PolitiTweet.org
