The people in this video being shared by the US right said they were protesting new pandemic restrictions from *Ontario's conservative government.* The government policy was denounced by the left-wing/liberal opposition as a violation of people's rights. https://t.co/K1zye1rIbh
I posted Trump’s schedule almost every day (except for weekends and my own vacations) starting on January 21, 2018, when it occurred to me that people might want to know what’s on the president’s schedule. Here’s the tweet where I said I’d start doing it. https://t.co/xM6vlB5UuEhttps://t.co/Qe961ccSzC
284,000 Facebook shares on a fake quote about Biden that is supposed to be something "the Czech Republic" said. (Thanks to the USA Today piece, the Facebook post now has a big fact check label attached.) https://t.co/eohUid15xJ
One week ago, I wrote this story for @TorontoStar about #COVID19 risk in daycares. https://t.co/yJlBQ8h1AD
A few hours after my story went online, I learned my 2-year-old daughter had tested positive for COVID-19. Her likeliest exposure was her daycare.
Long+personal thread:
I traced the spread of a lie that Black Lives Matter "stormed" or "forced their way into" Iowa's Capitol last week -- from anonymous tweet to anonymous tweet to Gateway Pundit, Post Millennial, David J. Harris Jr., Ian Miles Cheong, Andy Ngô and others: https://t.co/BqAfPWTVYc

Greg is not down with OCP.
This is the Army's common camouflage uniform. Has been for some time.
It's one of several bizarre questions Greg has raised about this case that brush aside the heart of the matter: Evidence of excessive force by police that has led to a firing. https://t.co/WYNwIurQYU
This a.m., AL Sec. of State John Merrill told @WarOnDumb he didn't have an affair w/ Cesaire McPherson. I then obtained explicit audio of them discussing their sexual history. We played it for Merrill & he apologized & said he won't run for office in '22. https://t.co/RtyVCh614h

Great, wide distribution in where the jobs were being created. Leisure & hospitality lead the way, but +636k jobs excluding those sectors is a huuuuge number. https://t.co/B5I8l2xqmL

"We really need to hold on to the public health measures" as more people get vaccinated, Fauci says, calling this "a race between the vaccine and what's going on with the dynamics of the outbreak. And we can win this by just hanging there a bit longer."
CDC Director Walensky becomes emotional during today's covid briefing, saying she's ditching prepared remarks because she's scared of rising case numbers in the US. "Right now, I'm scared...I so badly want to be done...so I'm asking you to just hold on a little longer."
