They're very credible on immigration. They have an agenda but the reporting is accurate. https://t.co/JptqMOYohs

There is zero evidence in the piece to back this "colleagues say" assertion–ie no quotes, blind or not, from colleagues. My colleagues say it looks like fan service anti-Trump spin imposed on a story by Times editors. https://t.co/BR18e13yvW

UNSCIENTIFIC COMPROMISE: If Trump's hell-bent on somehow loosening in May, he might as well get the most bang from April with a 50-state lockdown for the month's final TWO WEEKS. Why let travelers from weak states like Iowa and Arkansas spread the virus?

Key point: it's not "shutdown until a vaccine in 18 months." There are lots of things–especially anti-viral therapies–coming much quicker that could enable some opening up. Maybe they will arrive quite soon. https://t.co/OJQPekr5hq

Another survey showing LESS divergence between richer & poorer than you'd expect (except in work-from-home)-yet crammed into ready-made inequality mold. Poorer quintiles actually doing better on "emotional well being." They don't bother to explain it away https://t.co/Xq6lPhxNJH

Does @TuckerCarlson think those 10 million are going to get back to work if we loosen anti-virus measures? Some will, but people aren't going to cram into stores and restaurants, and international demand's collapsing. So his "back to work" side of equation is a bit of a fraud. https://t.co/rh2Ba6Ljvp

Right. The economy isn't going to snap back to the way it was before even if we do what Tucker now seems to want (loosen up). We'll still be in a major downturn, no? https://t.co/RanpEGornS

Second sentence is key, Tucker plan (whatever it is) wouldn't end the economic crisis. Depending on how many extra deaths it brings, it might make it worse, no? https://t.co/bQ3XMtAi8c

Carlson: "10 million Americans out of work and staring at poverty … it's a far bigger disaster than the virus itself by any measure."
Do you agree with that? More dead than in Vietnam? World War I? Does @SenTomCotton agree with that? (I don't agree with that.) https://t.co/H5bcQFrGKP

Put Americans on the dole, bring in immigrants to take the jobs — that was always an overheated right-wing dystopia, right? But it looks a bit like what is happening now https://t.co/etxyTQJhL4
