Many of you asked for the chart I showed on the @newshour last night, comparing Covid-19 deaths/per million amongst modern, developed nations. Here it is: As I said to @JudyWoodruff - these nations don't have smarter doctors or better medicines than we do, they just launched smarter, more consistent public-health responses. And more of their people are alive today because it. We can do this too. The evidence is right here.

Here's a thread about Trump advisor Roger Stone, and the remarkable scene today in federal court.

Stone was sentenced to over 3 yrs in prison for lying to Congress and witness tampering.

@newshour producer @AlexDEliaNews and I were in the courtroom this morning. @NewsHour @AlexDEliaNews Judge Amy Berman Jackson was particularly harsh about Stone’s actions in this case, describing his “belligerence to the truth,” adding that “the dismay and disgust of the defendant’s belligerence should transcend party.” @newshour (2)

We’ve spent this week reporting on the aftermath of the deadly #CampFire in Northern California for @newshour. Here’s a thread on what we’ve been seeing. Three weeks in, there’s obvious relief that #CampFire is 100% contained, but thousands of people from #Paradise are still homeless, with no obvious remedy. Almost 90 people died in the fire, and nearly 190 more are still unaccounted for.
