We didn't have space to address this in the piece, but I think Trump's adoption of the "Chinese virus" slur is another example of this—it makes the virus part of a culture war, which is ground he knows how to play on.— Quinta Jurecic (@qjurecic) March 17, 2020

-Pandemics can start in other countries and don't respect borders
-Science must guide decisions
-Federal/state collaboration is key
-Consistent messaging needed
-Social distancing recommended
-"Days - and even hours - can matter"

The harsh reality of the corona virus finally overwhelmed these purveyors of propaganda, fake conspiracies and nonsense. We will never know how many people they endangered by their dishonest denialism. It should permanently discredit them all.

Tonight's episode of "Traitors Walking Back Seditious Lies" was the best one yet. Nunes AND Chaffetz AND Hannity? That's some serious seditious starpower right there.

If Kentucky is crippled by the coronavirus, why did @senatemajldr take the weekend off? Kentucky deserves better than this self-serving, amoral human and @AmyMcGrathKY is the one to take back Kentucky for Kentuckians! Keep going Amy!

The war on truth has real casualties, not just political ones. Trump and Fox News have spent years telling people that other media and experts can’t be trusted, and they have blood on their hands.

President Macron commanded the French to stay at home for at least 15 days, joining other European leaders who are taking measures never before seen in the postwar West. “We are at war. The enemy is invisible and it requires our general mobilization.”
