The truly sobering statistic is that half of the 100,000 deaths have happened since November. The virus was not “unprecedented” then; we’d had the precedent of the preceding nine months.

100,000 dead, and I keep thinking about those gobshite grifters pushing their anti-vaxx / Covid hoax snake oil – thereby mocking the relentless graft of the NHS frontline. They should be ashamed of themselves.

It’s not just Boris Johnson who bears responsibility for the UK’s catastrophic performance. Rishi Sunak recklessly encouraged workers back to offices, diners to eat out and lobbied against strict restrictions. https://t.co/9tBCa6nbFJ

On impeachment (with a handful of exceptions), the GOP has basically gone from pretending nothing leading up to January 6th happened, to pretending January 6th didn't happen either.

The Senate vote on whether to convict Trump should be a secret ballot.

If Republican senators had integrity and if Trump supporters were peaceful, this wouldn’t be necessary. But they don't and they’re not — so here we are. pic.twitter.com/eqw8PhHbo0

"In one post, from January 2019, Greene liked a comment that said 'a bullet to the head would be quicker' to remove House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. In other posts, Greene liked comments about executing FBI agents who, in her eyes, were part of the 'deep state' working against Trump." https://t.co/7nXBCnwfP2
