Silicon Valley Bank’s shareholders and executives lose it all, as they should. Depositors in good faith, however, should recover and have access to their deposits in order to meet their payrolls, pay their suppliers, and to prevent contagion.

Late at the party, aber dieses Video lässt mich samt Symbolik nicht los. Der Ex-Anführer eines Landes, geschützt nur vom Zelt, mehr ist nicht mehr da. Zwei Söhne, doof genug, davon ein Video zu drehen. Zwei Unterstützer gibt’s noch, die „Fight“ rufen. Und draußen naht das Ende.

Watching German @ARD_Presseclub: Wish my fellow American voters had such media as the information base to cast their votes. Good job, German media.

The US President brought again several @OurWorldInData charts with him to an interview. The interviewer wanted to see the comparison of deaths per capita with Germany and South Korea, but Donald Trump didn’t have it at hand. Here it is.

.@jonathanvswan: “Oh, you’re doing death as a proportion of cases. I’m talking about death as a proportion of population. That’s where the U.S. is really bad. Much worse than South Korea, Germany, etc.” @realdonaldtrump: “You can’t do that.” Swan: “Why can’t I do that?”

Sunday's entire @nytimes front page is a partial list of Covid-19 victims. "The 1,000 people here reflect just 1% of the toll. None were mere numbers."

The firings of multiple Inspectors General is unprecedented; doing so without good cause chills the independence essential to their purpose. It is a threat to accountable democracy and a fissure in the constitutional balance of power.

Last night, I hit a wall. Gutted by the death toll. Disturbed by the govt's shortcomings. Dismayed by political rhetoric that bears no resemblance to reality. Worried about friends who are losing jobs; kids who are missing school; and senior citizens who are living in fear.

Wondering why not more policy makers are following @NYGovCuomo example to use powerpoint. So clear and simple. More please.
If ever there is a time to practice humanity — it is now. The time to show kindness, to show compassion. New Yorkers are tough — but we are also the most courageous community that you have ever seen.
