Barrack, Flynn, Manafort, Bannon, Stone, Cohen, Rudy, Gates, Broidy, Gaetz, Wynn, Parnas, Fruman - the scale of MAGA world's criminality should keep these guys from power for a long long time.

Did I forget anyone?
Yes, I forgot Weisselberg and the hundreds facing jail time for the attempted coup on Jan 6th.

Yes all of this should make what Mnuchin has been up to be seen in a new and harsher light.

Waking up today, and just continue to be shocked at how Republican and MAGA leaders appear to be content to let COVID ravage their communities once again. (1/x)

There is something so medieval, barbaric about what we are witnessing that it should be raising questions with voters about the nature of the rest of the Republican agenda and its clear lack of concern about the well being of every day people. (2/x)
Of course the anti-vaxx sentiment is going to, like the virus itself, spread and mutate, and start undermining other vital parts of our public health system. (3/x)

The GOP's COVID denialism is of such gravity that it should keep them from power for decades.

This stuff is a form of savagery, barbarism, outside the sensibilities of the modern West.
Who would allow their friends, families to be exposed, willingly to this threat?

And of course this anti-vaxx mania is going to spread to other vaccines, further weakening public health in the US, creating new health scares/threats, which will cost lives and money.

The 850k jobs created in June was an incredible number, and shows that Biden's economic plan is clearly working.

A short thread which helps puts Biden's early success in historical perspective. (1/x)
We've updated our jobs score card, and now have it:

34m jobs - 16 yrs Clinton Obama
3m jobs - 5 months Biden
2m jobs - 16 years 2 Bushes, Trump (2/x)
Jobs created by month, below.

Biden - 604k (5 months)
Clinton/Obama - 176k (16 yrs)
2 Bushes, Trump - 9,700 (16 yrs)

Biden 60x per month last 3 GOP Presidencies right now. 604,000 vs 10,000. (3/x)

So, some new graphs, our updated jobs score card.

34m jobs - 16 yrs Clinton Obama
3m jobs - 5 months Biden
2m jobs - 16 years 2 Bushes, Trump
Jobs created by month, below.

Biden - 604k (5 months)
Clinton/Obama - 176k (16 yrs)
2 Bushes, Trump - 9,700 (16 yrs)

Biden 60x per month last 3 GOP Presidencies right now. 604,000 vs 10,000.
Here's a bit more analysis, and why we think the repeated failure of the GOP over three Presidencies and 30 years to create jobs and a good economy is foundational to understanding their current dramatic decline as a Party.

We are at another “off ramp” from MAGA moment for the GOP.

Are Governors and leaders of low vaccine states just going to let their constituents die without waging a major effort to save them? (1/x)
The low vaccine states have the money, the know how and the backing of the US government to ensure that COVID doesn't ravage their communities.

A failure to take dramatic action now isn't conservative - it's barbaric, medieval, perhaps even criminal.

Proof of vaccination is required for schools and camps all across the country. There is nothing "woke" or anti-freedom about this.

Freedom in fact comes from not being ravaged by disease - what public health, modern medicine all about (3/x).

Just finished an interview with the great @NormOrnstein. It was one of the most thorough and compelling discussions I've heard about the threat a radicalized GOP pose to our democracy.

It is very much worth your time. You can find it below.

Here's a writeup of our interview today with @NormOrnstein from @ThePlumLineGS and @brianbeutler.

Norm's ideas for reforming the filibuster are very very good ones, and deserve more attention.

Thought this was a really interesting part of my talk w/@NormOrnstein today. Big rethink is needed for way media uses today's ideological terms - progressive, liberal, conservative.....GOP clearly no longer a conservative party. What words to use?
