For weeks, President Trump has minimized the seriousness of the coronavirus and mocked concern about it. On Tuesday, he made a remarkable claim: He knew it was a pandemic all along.
His own words prove him wrong.

I give you my word as a Biden: When I'm president, I will lead with science, listen to the experts and heed their advice, and always tell you the truth.
60% of Americans now say they don't have very much trust — or have no trust at all — in what President Trump says about COVID-19, a new poll finds.

So society’s *real* key workers have just been revealed.
Not the bankers. Not the traders. Not the elite hedge fund managers.
It’s the nurses. The doctors. The delivery drivers. The carers. The porters. The teachers. The shelf stackers. The check out staff.

“President Trump has gone to extraordinary lengths to conceal details of his conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin, including on at least one occasion taking possession of the notes of his own interpreter” - WaPo

He has to have been the easiest mark in the history of marks. It didn't take much to steal what sliver of soul he had left.

The NYT bombshell story should be the lead story on every major news outlet. Sadly it’s not. Have we become so assaulted by Trump scandals that the fact a US President was the target of a counter-intelligence operation is not jaw-droppin’ headlines?

I can't wait to read the full tic-tock when all this is done. From the Steele dossier through the murders in Moscow, through the dozens duped and defending, having this all put together in a timeline is going to be the outline for the greatest corruption story ever told. @maddow

I’m looking forward to being back in Puerto Rico as the @ClintonFdn continues to stand with the people of Puerto Rico, USVI, and the Caribbean as they rebuild and recover.

All Americans—not just your supporters—deserve a President who is honest, ethical, selfless, & substantive. Our country faces daunting domestic & international challenges. If there is a scintilla of decency left in you, you would focus on your responsibilities, not on yourself. xitter.cf/realdonaldtrump/status…

.@realDonaldTrump, the IG report found what we all knew: James Comey’s actions helped you. During the election, the Russia investigation was concealed from the public, the other was inappropriately turned into a media circus. xitter.cf/realdonaldtrump/status…

The most successful people I’ve met weren’t people. They were cats, and boy, they know how to live. I feel like I’m doing this format wrong.

Happy Father’s Day to the man who taught me to show respect for others for education for being led by your passions Who taught me to never stop growing and learning To work hard and realize that preparation is the bedrock for success. And above all to find purpose beyond oneself

UPDATE: 43 senators now support our bill to bar children from being taken from their parents at the border. We still need a Republican senator to join. If you’re represented by a Republican senator, please ask them to cosponsor S.3036. #FamiliesBelongTogether

On #FathersDay & every day, I could not imagine a better dad for Charlotte & Aidan than Marc. I also could not imagine being forcibly separated from my children as I sought sanctuary. No parent, no person should support this: xitter.cf/texastribune/status/10…
