There is tremendous reporting going on on the pandemic, but it's from places like @statnews or @propublica who take their task with a bit more seriousness than your political reporters. 4/

So, get better. Tell us, why 4 months into this we STILL have insufficient number of tests--what happened politically that led us to this point, keeps us still incapable of rising to the task. 6/

Tell us why we have people with no relevant experience like Richard Epstein and Larry Ellison at the right hand of Jared Kushner who is at the left hand of the President? How a culture of amateurism, denigration of expertise took hold in this Administration. 7/
