Pinning this. I had to look it up for about the 3rd or 4th time.

Here’s hoping this tweet is soon irrelevant (meaning: here’s hoping Bernie fades).

False. Sanders worked with John McCain to pass a massive, emergency, damage control bill after they were all asleep at the wheel. And when pressed by McCain, Sanders folded. Opening the door to the biggest privatization expansion in VA history. More: https://t.co/U3pKIt2GHe https://t.co/GdWQ5Qo5k5

Go, Italy!

As @anneapplebaum notes: Italy’s numbers are high in great part because the Italians are doing a good job testing their people fast, accurately, and for free.
America’s numbers seem low not because US is exempt, but because US is testing late, slow, and expensively https://t.co/FY7uvW41Fb

@KGuilaine The only way English will be a truly international language is if there are international contributions to it. This is not a cause for distress but rather celebration.
The soft power runs the other way. (I.e., it’s English that has the “soft power”. Also, why are we using the word “power”?) The “lingua franca” (ha!) is going to pick up new words, of course.

Nigerian soft power has been increasing. Nigerian English like ânext tomorrowâ is in the OED loool.
âOxford lexicographers updated the dictionary with 29 Nigerian words, recognising the “unique & distinctive contribution to English as a global language”.â https://t.co/kxCLBCGswB
That being said: yay, new words! (Now I just have to understand them.)
Also: wow, Nigeria has 200 million people? That is NOT chump change.

This is going to be so bad. NO2 pollution way down in China (factories shut down), 25% drop in expected container traffic in LA, and now this.

«Itâs certainly odd that Biden, and not Sanders, would have gotten a bump out of a state where Sanders won nearly twice as many raw votes, but thatâs what it looks like. Perhaps it is the manifestation of establishment backlash against the suddenly-real prospect of Sanders becoming the nominee.»

This *is* a pretty dang good endorsement. đ
