Here we go again...

“The Parking Division is taking extraordinary measures during the pandemic to prioritize the well-being of St. Louisans, including suspending meters and parking tickets during this difficult time.

"Transferring parking reserves is a serious matter which requires a full understanding of the budget, revenues, and Parking Division legal obligations. If the Parking Division fails to make any debt payments the City of St. Louis would have to make up the difference.

"It is unfortunate Alderman Boyd would choose an arbitrary number and play politics when all officials should be focused on public health and flattening the curve.” - Treasurer Jones stltoday.com/news/local/gov…

🍑Here we go again. Adam Schiff is thanking Senators for working so late and sitting silently for hours

1/

Today, the House Managers will cover the elements of the law underpinning the two impeachment articles: abuse of power and obstruction of congress.

Then they will apply the facts to the law.

Today will be article I, carrying into tomorrow. And Tomorrow will be article II

2/

Schiff yielded to Nadler who calls this the third day of a "solemn occasion."

"Articles are overwhelmingly supported by the evidence" even though president has blocked efforts to obtain documents and witness testimony.

@HouseJudiciary

🧵 Here we go! Tweeting the @HouseJudiciary impeachment inquiry hearing. Witness will be Corey Lewandowski, former Trump Campaign manager. Chairman Nadler gaveled in at 1:16 p.m.

1/

@HouseJudiciary

@HouseJudiciary Nadler: All elements of obstruction of justice were met, according to Mueller Report. Today examining the President enlisting Lewandowski to get Sessions to shut down Mueller investigation.

2/

@HouseJudiciary

@HouseJudiciary President knows that anyone else (but a sitting president) would be charged with a crime. White House blocked Porter and Dearborn from showing up today. Spurious legal doctrine. WH also used when committee called McGahn to testify. This "absolute immunity" is made up

You can find my journeys by train in Europe earlier this year here. #springoftrains

You've got to hand it to Eurostar: it takes a lot of self confidence and optimism to claim you have WiFi time and time again despite all evidence to the contrary. We could all learn a thing or two

(My first tweet was initially sent in London. It didn't make it up until Calais!)

HERE WE GO AGAIN🤦🏽‍♂️With #RacistInChief, #RacistTrump & #RacistGOP all still trending, MAGAts are dragging out the tired old "Democrats are the party of slavery and Republicans freed them" line. They do it every time.

Here's why it doesn't work👇 [THREAD]

Go to any "racial" topic that trended over the last few weeks; Sweden, Reparations, Barack Obama Blvd, Nathan Bedford Forrest, Dinesh, etc, and scroll through the tweets and you'll find dozens & dozens, maybe even hundreds with a variation of 'DEMs are the party of slavery!' 2/

Those using the 'DEMs are the party of slavery/Republicans freed them' rationale to *remind* black Americans why they should be loyal to the GOP are either too ignorant to understand how the ideology of the two parties has evolved, or, they assume that black Americans are. 3/

After work, Shane took the trolley downtown, There was still a place or two down there he hadn't been banned from.
He was easily a block away when he saw the crowd, and heard the shouting.
#vss365

Assembled loosely on the corner was a group of well-dressed people. Some were holding signs, some were passing out literature. One fellow was saying something to people as they passed by, struggling to be heard over the traffic.
Protesters? Shane wondered.
#vss365

Too late, Shane realized one of the crowd was addressing him.
"Can I give you something to read?" The man pushed a small pamphlet into Shane's hand. He didn't seem angry at all.
"What are y'all protesting? What's this all about?"
