Chilling that Trump shared video w/ 80million followers of someone saying “the only good Democrat is a dead Democrat.” This is more than background noise to an imploding presidency. Hatred endangers us all- esp. communities who’ve long been targeted by his dehumanizing attacks.

There is literally no circumstance in which Trump can bring himself to think about the welfare of another human being.

Asked why President Trump didn’t wear a mask while honoring WW II veterans in their 90s—just a day after one of his personal valets tested positive for COVID-19—press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said, “They made the choice to come here” on.forbes.com/60191C3ZR

Hearing some further very encouraging news about indomitable Belfast lawyer Niall Murphy, who has been facing the fight of his life against #COVID19. Hope to see him back in action soon, like this successful court outing last year with journalists @trevorbirney & @Barry_TheDetail

The online abuse of Minister @RobinSwannMoH and his family is utterly despicable. He is working round the clock to try to save lives. He doesn't deserve this and all of us should condemn it.

The further restrictions of movement in Ireland announced tonight will further remind the NI public that there is still no agreed policy in NI on what businesses should stay open - and which should close Sinn Fein & DUP will be under more pressure to find an agreed public message

Italian mayor addresses his citizens about their irresponsible behavior (in a very Italian way). “Doing your hair?! Why do you need this at the moment? A barbecue?! Are you kidding me? You are making a joke out of your lives!”
