It seems impossible, but Republicans can’t run the Postal Service — an agency in the US Constitution. How can they manage a pandemic when they can’t run a post office? https://t.co/79tOM0aCBR — PolitiTweet.org

Two months of ignoring the HEROES Act; Republicans still don’t know what they want; Republican Senators still divided; Trump a mess, tweeting and golfing; McConnell not even attending negotiations. https://t.co/XVB1N9MnA0 — PolitiTweet.org

"At the same time, we have hundreds of companies that care about climate and are actively reducing emissions in their own operations, but remain mostly silent on climate policy.” Bingo. — PolitiTweet.org

“Average global temperature will likely warm anywhere from 4.1°F to 8.1°F (or 2.3°C to 4.5°C) if deforestation & the burning of fossil fuels continue at the current rate”— meaning if we keep listening to the fossil fuel industry & its crooked front groups. https://t.co/oC7TkHLggB — PolitiTweet.org

If we take Trump up on his offer to postpone the presidential election, indeed if we postpone it past January 20, 2021, then by operation of the 20th Amendment the terms of both Trump and Pence expire, and @SpeakerPelosi, succeeds to the Presidency. — PolitiTweet.org
