Thanks to Mayor de Blasio

His awfulness on coronavirus allows us to show that criticism of political leaders is about failures to keep us safe—not about political parties.

The latest by this Democratic mayor is an indictment of him.

I'm thankful to United Nations Special Rapporteur @davidakaye for engaging me in this wide-raging conversation on #Covid_19

Many, many thoughtful insights

Including his criticism of China and US handling pandemic, prospect of WHO self-scrutiny

2. United Nations' David Kaye on #WHA73:

"There is especially good reason for the WHO .... I am not sure the resolution the World Health Assembly adopted on Tuesday will provide the basis for the kind of scrutiny the pandemic demands."
3. UN's David Kaye on social media platforms and #COVID:

"[T]hey should create a kind of case law to enable observers to understand exactly what decisions they are taking about COVID content. They should ensure genuine access to researchers ... in computational propaganda..."

WaPo (@nakashimae) explodes myth in #Obamagate

Sen. Graham asks: who unmasked Flynn?!

WSJ editorial board insinuates: Biden unmasking request maybe linked to leak!

Answer:

WaPo: "Flynn’s name was never redacted."

There was nothing to unmask!

.@AshaRangappa_ nails errors in Andy McCarthy's attempt to resurrect Obamagate.👇

Other items:

1. Larger point: McCarthy now admits NSA #unmasking list has NOTHING to do with Kislyak-Flynn call.

2. Smaller point: McCarthy overlooks Flynn 302 which points to Kislyak being in DC
2. Andy McCarthy's admission in National Review:

"It appears that not a single listed unmasking [in NSA list] pertains to the December 29 Kislyak call."

Yep.

Grenell's #UnmaskingFlynn list was a propaganda ruse.
3. One more on the smaller point:

"The calls were picked up as part of routine electronic surveillance of Russian officials and agents in the United States, which is one of the FBI’s responsibilities, according to the U.S. officials."
