Schiff Ex-Staffer Tests Positive For COVID-19 | Talking Points Memo

I have no knowledge of the status or adequacy of Mr. Goldman’s health care insurance. For him or anyone in his situation, insurance or not, it does not change my intentions.

Yes. Probably the best word to describe him. Trouble is I’ve used it so many times already in so many situations, that it almost loses its meaning. It’s hard to find an adequate replacement. Evildoer, beast, demon…don’t seem to capture his essence either.

I don’t know about Goldman but Schiff does triathlons so he is in excellent physical condition, which should help him throw off COVID-19 if he contracts it. I could not handle losing heroes like Goldman and Schiff at this point.
