Dr. Kelly Sennholz: Matt Gaetz has been saying for years he was single; he has an adopted son from Cuba.
Rick: He let his son go to FL for spring break.
Dr. S.: He should not have allowed him to go. It's continued insanity!
@MtnMD #CoronavirusPandemic #CoronaVirusUpdate
Dr. Kelly Sennholz: People are tired & are pulling away from wearing masks. Angela Merkel said the deadly third wave is hitting Europe, & it will hit us, too.
@MtnMD #CoronavirusPandemic #CoronaVirusUpdate
Dr. Kelly Sennholz: The new variant--the P variant--is the big problem; it can infect people 3x as fast. The graph had flattened out & now it's rising up again. It's really important to continue distancing & wearing masks.
@MtnMD #CoronavirusPandemic #CoronaVirusUpdate
Dr. Kelly Sennholz: Let's compare Vietnam & Brazil. Vietnam has a population about 1/3 ours, & they have no virus there, no need for masks. Brazil has a madman like Trump in charge & the virus is rampant, hospitals are overwhelmed.
@MtnMD #CoronavirusPandemic #CoronaVirusUpdate
Dr. Kelly Sennholz: All these people are gathering in FL for spring break where the variant is, & they're partying & having fun. Now they'll go home & take the virus with them & infect Grandma.
@MtnMD #CoronavirusPandemic #CoronaVirusUpdate
Dr. Kelly Sennholz: This new variant seems to hit younger people really hard--ICUs are filling up with people in their 30's.
@MtnMD #CoronavirusPandemic #CoronaVirusUpdate
Dr. Kelly Sennholz: Republicans are dying at higher rates, & Republican states are doing worse with the virus.
@MtnMD #CoronavirusPandemic #CoronaVirusUpdate
Dr. Kelly Sennholz: Our behavior is the only way to stop this virus. Vietnam is enjoying concerts, sporting events. Brazil, with their Trumper, not doing so well.
Rick: I don't see our shutting down again
Dr. S: I think you're right
@MtnMD #CoronavirusPandemic #CoronaVirusUpdate
Dr. Kelly Sennholz: We'll have a longer period of having to wear masks beyond what it should have been. Those who don't understand math or science are going to have a really hard time.
@MtnMD #CoronavirusPandemic #CoronaVirusUpdate
Dr. Kelly Sennholz: The variants are becoming resistant to the vaccines. Scientists are working on vaccines that incl the new variants. The idiocy of people has caused this to drag on far longer b/c they don't want to wear masks.
@MtnMD #CoronavirusPandemic #CoronaVirusUpdate
Dr.Sennholz: Vietnam tracked COVID back 3 & 4 people & got ppl in isolation to stop transmission. The entire country understood their future relied on following the guidelines. They all wore masks. That could have been us. We know Trump's plan was to infect everyone.
@MtnMD
Dr. Kelly Sennholz: Biden is doing a fantastic job--he's doing what he said he'd do & he's moving ahead. He clearly got the vaccination numbers done in a short time. He said 100 million vaccinations in 100 days but he got it down to 58.
@MtnMD #CoronaVirusUpdate
Dr. Kelly Sennholz: We're getting things done because we're alert & watching & Congress knows that. We need to remain vigilant.

Hassan Ahmad: Transparency is always a good thing, and sunshine disinfects. When you can't see what's going on, that's exactly where the problem began. We should have at least provided a benchmark [with what Joe Biden inherited at the border].
@HMAesq #Immigration
Hassan Ahmad: Border apprehension stayed above 1 million during the 1980's. Current numbers of 800,000--there is no crisis. It's a border & needs to be managed better.
@HMAesq #Immigration
Rick: Joe Biden's only been in office 2 mos--he can't snap his fingers & undo 40 yrs of neglect.
Hassan Ahmad: The people crossing the border are entering a broken system. How can you manage a border with 2-way flow when system is dysfunctional?

Joe Sanberg: The ACA is a great transition for Medicare for All, which is where we need to be. The popularity of the ACA is why Republicans want to get rid of it--they knew once people had it, they wouldn't want to be without it.
@JosephNSanberg @cforhd
Joe Sanberg: Ultimately, the Affordable Care Act has been a boon for all insurance companies. We need to move away from a system that uses for-profit insurance companies.
@JosephNSanberg @cforhd
Joe Sanberg: I think most businesses would like to be out of the business of administering health insurance. The only ones who don't mind it are the insurance companies. We find broad support of a Medicare for All-type plan.

Brian Lombardozzi: The President & his admin do have big, bold plans; we just have to see if Congress will go along with it. We've had several years of putting politics before sound policy.
@youvebeendozed @KeepitMadeinUSA
Brian Lombardozzi: We should be happy our grandparents & great-grandparents built everything so well because there hasn't been investment in infrastructure since then.
@youvebeendozed @KeepitMadeinUSA
Brian Lombardozzi: Some people have long commutes from affordable housing to where their jobs are, & then they need to find parking. Trains don't go everywhere people need to go.

Michele Papakie: The Chancellor of the PA state university system wants to merge three schools in the east & three in the west. If he doesn't get what he wants, he says he'll dissolve the entire state system.
@DrMis924 @APSCUF
Michele Papakie: We still haven't recovered from the funding cuts under Gov. Corbett.
@DrMis924 @APSCUF
Michele Papakie: We wish we had a chancellor who advocates for the students & for the system; instead, he's pitting us against the legislature. We were blindsided by his wanting to dissolve the state system.

Bob Ney: The US Court of Appeals in Boston upheld the conviction of the guy convicted of the Boston Marathon bombing. The appeals court said the conviction should be overturned since the trial judge didn't question prospective jurors enough about pretrial publicity.
@bobney
Rick: They're talking about breaking the insurrectionists into groups--who was just hanging around vrs leaders. NO! People need jail time for this. No slaps on the wrist.
Bob Ney: If people hung around but didn't go in the Capitol, do a plea deal. If they were in the bldg, hitting employees, how can they get a slap on the wrist?

Bob Lord: Billionaires are killing it--they've increased their wealth during the pandemic by $1.3 trillion. Over 1% of our country's growth over the last year went to just one guy: Elon Musk.
@AZBobLord @4TaxFairness @IPS_DC
Bob Lord: If you take the top 1.0%, back in 1980, that group held a little over 2% of our wealth. Now they hold 10% of our wealth.
@AZBobLord @4TaxFairness @IPS_DC
Bob Lord: In the last 40-43 years, esp. once Reagan took office, we implemented a policy of taxing work more & taxing wealth less, so the money keeps flowing to the top.
