Exacerbating horror of #pandemic is impact on suicide domestic violence & drug abuse. #CDC says overdoses are up 13% since March. Stress, health care disruption, economic dislocations, even drop in Mexican dope coming thru border are cited. 72,000 OD's by end of 2020- Sad record. — PolitiTweet.org

Hindsight is always 20/20. I'm sure @realDonaldTrump wishes he did some things differently. We all wish we were more prescient about #COVID19, the invisible killer. It would also have been helpful if China didn't cover up its human-to-human transmission. — PolitiTweet.org

Just got the Unemployment Claims for the month, 884,000, which is a lot, but it's at least under a million again. I drove around NE Ohio yesterday and saw countless "Help Wanted" signs in various businesses. This economy lacks only a reasonable reopening to really pop. — PolitiTweet.org

Neither @JoeBiden nor@SpeakerPelosi nor ⁦@SenSchumer⁩ rang any early #Coronavirus alarm bells. Remember Pelosi’s “Come to #Chinatown?” ⁦@wtam1100⁩ #Roadkill the podcast https://t.co/peDxcXCccp — PolitiTweet.org

@SenSchumer says #Woodward's book is "damning proof @realDonaldTrump lied & people died." He's a schmuck. Where was he when New York State was devastated by this plague? Was he on the front lines? Did he see early on that hell was on the way? Why didn't he support travel bans? — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

@realDonaldTrump wanted to show calm. He didn't want people jumping up & down; didn't want to panic country. #DrFauci just said @POTUS was not being deceptive. In his heart, Trump really thought we had it handled. We all wish we knew #corona was worst natural threat in 100 years. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Trump-haters now claiming 20/20 hindsight. Vast majority of them believed as @realDonaldTrump did that #coronavirus was like a really bad flu. He didn't want to panic the country. Example: when/what date did #DrFauci & #DrBirx finally agree that #Masks should be mandatory? June? — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

With handful of exceptions, everybody in America under-estimated & under-reacted to #coronavirus in February. Dems opposed travel bans imposed by @realDonaldTrump. Neither @JoeBiden nor @SpeakerPelosi rang any alarm bells. For @SenSchumer to accuse @POTUS of murder is disgusting. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Nobody had crystal ball needed to predict what this damned #coronavirus was going to do to US & rest of the planet. Certainly wish I had raised alarm earlier. @realDonaldTrump admission to #BobWoodward that he downplayed virus to prevent 'panic' is as honest as it was misguided. — PolitiTweet.org

#ClementeDay honors one of the greatest baseball players ever. #RobertoClemente proud son of #PuertoRico not only got 3,000 hits in his Hall of Fame career w #Pittsburgh, he also had a heart of gold. I covered his death bringing supplies to earthquake ravaged #Nicaragua A saint. — PolitiTweet.org

Look what the torrential rain washed up. Coyotes on the prowl. https://t.co/8aLPO9Njs0 — PolitiTweet.org

Cops are feeling assailed. Entire #RochesterPD command calls it quits. Social Justice movement calling for a reckoning. Why no furor to stop the urban crime wave that leads to these toxic encounters between the community & cops? — PolitiTweet.org

According to #CDC Homicide is now the leading cause of death for young Black men between ages 12-19. Wake up America. Wake up liberals. Let’s save these children. https://t.co/9OLeATaaud — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Terrifying bloodshed & urban body count Labor Day Weekend. According to #CDC, #Homicide is now the Leading Cause of Death for young Black men ages 12 to 19. Isn't it past time for an all-out effort to stem Red Tide in Black America? Where's #CNN on this profoundly important issue — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Al Sharpton @TheRevAl is a much more impressive leader than some credit. He has a legitimate following & may be most important civil rights leader in country-with possible exception of @WhipClyburn. I call on both to direct focus to Urban Violence ASAP. Cops are not the problem. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

3 Black kids have just been arrested for killing a white cop here in #Cleveland last week. Their ages 15, 16 and 18. Veteran Detective James Skernivitz was a hero cop who had just joined federal #OperationLegend to stem tide of urban violence when teens killed him & an informant. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Over Labor Day weekend in New York, the NYPD reports 5 murders, 22 shootings & 28 shooting victims. Hero cops made 160 gun arrests without a single shot being fired. No praise no peep from activists who need a racial angle to make their point. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

According to #ChicagoTribune at least 175 children, ages 16 or younger, have been shot this year in nation's 3rd largest city. At least 21 of them have died. No cops involved in shooting so just crickets from activists who avert their eyes to this horrifying reality. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

21 Black men, women & children have been shot & killed in Chicago just since September 1st-including two 16-year old's & 3-year old girl. 523 have been killed this year. 157 more than all last year Ghetto Civil War continues unabated & unnoticed by #BlackLivesMatter & #Democrats — PolitiTweet.org

Blessed Are The Peacemakers. In a surprise sure to gag his political opponents @realDonaldTrump has been nominated for the #NobelPeacePrize for brokering peace deal betw #Israel & #UnitedArabEmirates. Nominated for prestigious award by Norwegian legislator-Congratulations @POTUS. — PolitiTweet.org

My actual 50th Anniversary. Wow never thought I’d even live this long, much less still be in broadcasting and still be welcome into your homes or at least your Twitter feed. Thx https://t.co/2B5KXcjR1D — PolitiTweet.org

#NYTimes carrying story praising #JacobBlake the #Kenosha survivor of police shooting-He was shot 7 times in the back. Now Blake's a star, having spoken with both @JoeBiden & @SenKamalaHarris. But neither Democrat reached out to the alleged victim of Blake's domestic violence. — PolitiTweet.org

#Portland a mess, overrun w anarchists & trouble-makers intent on destruction & disruption for its own sake. Over 100 days city has endured rioting, cops assaulted, disorderly & threatening conduct & violence. Now #NewBlackPanthers & #RevolutionaryAbolitionists have joined fray. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Love cops but, #DanielPrude asphyxiation at hands of #Rochester police seemed avoidable. Horrible images harkening back to worst days of #JimCrow, naked Black man with hood over his head. NG. Cops must be better trained in handling mental cases without deadly force. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Sounds like @SenKamalaHarris & @JoeBiden are rooting VS a vaccine. It's latest Conspiracy Theory: Pfizer-Johnson & Johnson-Moderna-Oxford University etc are all in on a plot to bring a flawed vaccine to market just for politics. Bizarre. This old Ohio man-I-would be 1st in line. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Hard not to see allegation @realDonaldTrump disrespected our fallen GI's as a convenient hit-job. 2-year old story, told with unnamed or described anonymous sources. 2 months before election? I dare these spineless so-called sources to reveal themselves. They're protected by law — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Morning after Labor Day, 1st real day of campaign for @POTUS. Polls tighten, but @JoeBiden still leads. Disruption & destrction in various cities over weekend helping @realDonaldTrump in crusade to beat back Dems & resume pre-pandemic life. Many battles will be fought in Midwest — PolitiTweet.org
