Bloomberg with the first Russia shot.
Oh, Liz. You could go harder.
Biden knows his audience.
Biden is winning SC, isn't he.
Bloomberg seems to have found his debate legs.
What's obvious to me is that these people had to do a lot of learning on race in the past 3 years (and the past few months, even). Even Warren.
Your opponent is still Sanders, Liz. Not Bloomberg.
Klobuchar making a strong point on health care. Sanders has always got away with this vagueness, and it makes no sense.
Reelecting 45 is "something none of us on this stage should be willing to risk." — Steyer, reading the average Dem voter's mind.
Biden is ON IT
Klobuchar doing the job for everyone by going after Sanders.
Warren defended Sanders. In SC. Where the audience just did this:
just
Biden going OFF on his vs Sanders record on guns.
Democrats, I cannot believe you're leaving it to the SC audience to crush Sanders.
Are you seriously telling me that the only two who have a record on guns are Biden and Bloomberg.
"How are you going to deliver a revolution if you won't even deliver a rule change?" — Buttigieg on Sanders' position on guns.
The moderates are out in force tonight.
Hate to tell you, I have zero hopes that any of these guys will address it in any meaningful way before the primary is over.
Self-deprecating joke. There were chuckles.
Seriously. Next can we talk about how providers set their prices.
Nutrition question. Nutrition question before foreign policy question. This is just.
(When Bloomberg bulldozed his way to an all-encompassing smoking ban on NYC, they hated his guts.

But it helped.

From a purely scientific perspective, the man is right.)
Goddam. He HAS read the science. It's borderline annoying.
On marijuana, that is. The strains being developed today are stronger than the ones in boomer and gen X times.

"We need not to cut and run on our allies." — Warren.

Not a substantial answer, but that's the first thing she's said on FP I can nod to.
Nice answer on #ncovid19 from Amy Klobuchar. That question was bad (what do you mean, "close borders to sick people"?).
Biden hammered China on management of the #ncovid19 crisis. Also good.
Frankly, it's a very weak night for both of them.
Yiiiiiiikesssssss yeah, @SenSanders camp, your boy needs to stop talking about communist authoritarian regimes.
@SenSanders Dear Lord. Make it stop. This is bad.
@SenSanders Sanders is getting murdered. Murdered. Let it go, Bernie, let it go. It's not going to help you.
@SenSanders Sanders does not commit to moving embassy back to Tel Aviv.
@SenSanders Protect Israel's right to exist, oppose Likud policies on Palestinians. That's the standard answer for most young Jews in the US.

Bloomberg talks about 2-state solution (which is on life-support as of today with new settlement plans).
@SenSanders Everyone saying they won't do the Trump thing, no one saying what they'll actually do.
@SenSanders Warren is not wrong about a plan to get out before getting in, but I swear that Warren's blanket foreign policy plan is to wag her finger at bad agents. She's got detailed plans about everything, why not about FP?
@SenSanders In France, a presidential system where the "government" (=cabinet of ministers) is picked by parliamentarian elex, there's the President, who's in charge of a lot of domestic issues+the vast majority of foreign policy, + the PM, head of gov, steeped in the minutiae of domestic.
@SenSanders This is a bit of a simplistic description, you get the idea.

What I mean to say is that Warren would make a good prime minister. Shame that position doesn't exist here.
@SenSanders Another debate without talking about immigration.

@SenSanders Seriously, I am not happy that they're seeing the same thing I saw.

Seeing so many people blame evil greedy VC and whilst I get the temptation (I could only stand to live in SF for 3 years), this explanation👇 makes far more sense to me in light of the fact that SVB held a f-tonne of treasuries (bonds are a market I used to cover).
It’s a very good point @ritholtz makes that we’ve been in inflation land for a year, and that the Fed seems panicky (a capital sin for central bankers, whose job is 90% to appear calm).

Whether or not you're into sailing, you really must follow along the "Everest of the Seas:" 3 months solo around the world, from France, down the coast of Africa, around Antarctica, then back toward the North Atlantic, without stopovers or assistance: vendeeglobe.org/en
33 skippers left on November 8 for the toughest of regattas. They crossed the Equator and they (minus 1, who had to abandon) were just making their way past the Cape of Good Hope. It's stunning, intense, emotional, and filled with learning opportunities for adults and kids.
Bad news is that just today, skipper @KevinEscoffier activated his distress beacon and got on his liferaft. Four of his competitors are now in the area, attempting to rescue him. They're far south, so the nights are short, but it's tense. vendeeglobe.org/en/news/20687/…

Toubiana le 20 août (quand je commençais à demander à mes parents de faire gaffe) : "Y'aura pas de deuxième vague" LOL

Et ce bien que la majorité des gens en France respectent le port du masque.

I'm excited because I learnt a new word today. But first an observation. 1/
Since the pandemic started, a few of us have noticed a disturbing phenomenon:

Experts access platforms to give their "expert" opinion on things that have little/nothing to do with their areas of expertise. 2/
We first noticed this in March. Here's a good example. The author of this piece is a worldwide authority on lifestyle as medicine (i.e., quality of diet, exercise, etc.). Here he is, weighing in on... health measures to fight Covid-19. 3/ nytimes.com/2020/03/20/opi…
