An almost pathological inability to admit error. A penchant for magical thinking. A positive, self-reenforcing feedback loop from aides and Fox News. @PhilipRucker and I go inside Trump’s failure to grapple w coronavirus. wapo.st/3eYg4g5

Hanna hammering South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley with heavy rain this morning. Hardest hit areas are near Mission, Weslaco, and from Harlingen east it appears. Houston sees some scattered storms today, but manageable. More @SpaceCityWX: spacecityweather.com/major-flooding…

This perfectly encapsulates how GOP hatred of the idea of helping people in need has crippled our response to Covid-19. Remember, 22 million people didn't decide to stop working because the money was good; they were forced to stay home by the virus.

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin: "We're not going to use taxpayer money to pay people more to stay home."

NEW: We’re ordering closures of schools until at least Sept 8. I owe everything I have to public schools. The last thing we want are closures. But we can't open until we dramatically reduce spread. The harder we work to crush the curve the sooner kids can responsibly return.

Hurricane Hanna has come ashore over Padre Island. Our concerns for Houston remain minimal, but a serious flooding situation is setting up in South Texas. spacecityweather.com/hurricane-hann…

Lawyers representing the family of Peter Green, the dexterous blues guitarist who led the first incarnation of Fleetwood Mac in a career shortened by psychedelic drugs and mental illness, say he has died. He was 73. apne.ws/FdpQv1P

China was negligent containing COVID. But what does it say about the Trump Administration that it saw China's failures, Europe's struggles, the Northeast ravaged, and all the while have NO coherent policy? That's the definition of negligence. Please, spare me the scapegoating.

Updated @NHC_Atlantic track for T.D. 8 shows "Hanna" landfalling at 50 mph on Saturday morning near Corpus Christi. The potential for rain is what to watch for.

When you call a woman with whom you disagree "a fucking bitch," as GOP Rep @TedYoho did with @AOC, it's not "passion" talking. It's misogyny. It's bigotry. Truly disgusting.

Just a word of unsolicited advice: With a raging pandemic and a very active hurricane season underway, it's important to try and control stresses. Any tropical system will make us uncomfortable, yes. But this isn't a Harvey or an Imelda or anything remotely like that.

There's a lot going on, but there's a reason @AOC's speech today on the House floor is resonating. She says what for too long has gone unsaid. Silence is not an option. The moment for reckoning with misogyny and harassment, in Congress, and in the country, is here.

Why do the White House and Senate Republicans seem to have no agreed-upon plan for the next round of COVID relief? There are so many possible reasons, and none of them are good.

I think the ultimate sign you’ve passed a cognitive test is that you’re able to move on to something else.

Yeah. Here's the deal. If you keep "turning the corner" like apparently President Trump keeps doing, it really means you are going around in circles.

I predict the Wall of Moms in Portland may become a far more enduring representation of the future of America than the “wall” along the Mexican border.
