Are you sitting down? Because I’m about to say something that can be pretty shocking, at least in Washington: I believe in science. So I know that climate change is real. And we have to fight this crisis with everything we’ve got.
That right there is what I call getting caught with your hand in the cookie jar, I mean, pants, I mean quid quo pro. cnn.com/2021/06/07/politics/…

The American left asks why we can't be like Denmark, with universal health care, low child poverty, and high life satisfaction. The American right asks why we can't have a murderously repressive regime like Putin's Russia, or now Myanmar. OK.

Josh, let me explain Capitalism to you. Sometimes people decide not to do business with you. It's their decision. You know the whole "No Shoes, No Shirt, No Service" thing ? In your case it happens to be "No Principles, No Honesty, No Book" thing. Feel free to Self-Publish

Just got an email from work that our hospital is full and all elective surgical cases have. Even cancelled. No transfers allowed to hospital. Driving home, passed a restaurant that was full. Shaking my head. Frustrated is an understatement.

Let’s be clear: if you make under $400,000 a year, you won’t pay a penny more in taxes under a Biden-Harris administration.

This is the text I just received after asking my best friend ( pulmonary and critical care doctor) how she was doing. #WearAMask #SocialDistance

This government statement about the election being secure should be unremarkable. But the reality is every person who had a hand in writing it will almost certainly face the wrath of President Trump and his inner circle in the White House.

As president, @JoeBiden will make corporations and the wealthiest finally pay their fair share—and he won’t ask a single person making under $400,000 per year to pay a penny more in taxes.

Our country is totally fractured and, with our weak leadership in Washington, you can expect Ferguson type riots and looting in other places

Don’t ever talk to me about the National Anthem if you’re a Trump supporter ever again.
