“Fifty-four years ago, in 1971, my grandmother Katharine Graham, publisher of The Washington Post, risked everything to stand up to a corrupt president. That president sought to destroy her newspaper’s autonomy. Today, faced with another such president, Jeff Bezos, the paper’s new owner, is tearing down the very newspaper she defended.”

In impoverished countries, I see moms carry their babies for miles to get them vaccinated, because they understand that vaccinations save lives. And in the US I see charlatans diminishing vaccines in ways that will cause kids to die.

@JoaquinCastrotx Was picking him up and carrying him out of there not an option???

[Colleen Rocha Levine @ColleenLevine]

Are you??? We wound up rebooking on @SouthwestAir instead. When we called to cancel @JetBlue customer service tried to deny our initial 1/3 flight had ever been cancelled!

[JetBlue @JetBlue]

@123_talent We're sorry to hear this. We're working to help all those affected to get them home as soon as possible. We're happy to look over your options. Send us a DM with your six-letter confirmation, full name, and date of birth. https://t.co/xSmyP7Lfyg

Still no thanks to @JetBlue though who couldn't care less ... and even tried to tell us our original flight out *hadn't* been cancelled! 3/3 #sju #jetblue #strandedinsanjuan

[Colleen Rocha Levine @ColleenLevine]

feeling grateful rn ... obviously it's really first world problems to be "stranded" in Puerto Rico ... it's just a lot more expense that we weren't planning ... but, our rental was able to be extended b/c the next family couldn't fly in, and just found out the host 1/3

[Colleen Rocha Levine @ColleenLevine]

changed us a reduced rate not the full holiday rate. Still stuck here with 3 teens w/o their meds but things could be worse. Crossing fingers on flight out tomorrow. 2/3

While thousands are stranded on their way home from holiday vacation I’d also like to point out that it was the Trump administration who cancelled any and ALL passenger protections that were put in place for massive cancellations.

Hey @RepDonBeyer @MarkWarner @timkaine @secduffy what’s the plan for Americans trying to get home from an American territory??? @jetblue rebooked us out of San Juan for *a week later*, no updates since airspace reopened.

[Colleen Rocha Levine @ColleenLevine]

Hey @JetBlue your turn? Where are the updates to those of us stranded in San Juan?

[Kris Van Cleave @krisvancleave]

.@SouthwestAir is adding 6 extra round trips from San Juan tomorrow, 8 additional Monday. SWA will add 2 extra
round trips to Aruba for Sunday.
“We are looking for opportunities to add more capacity to both places in the coming days,” the airline says in a statement

[Colleen Rocha Levine @ColleenLevine]

Three hours to get through to @jetblue customer service after our flight cancellation only to find out they have no information and no flights out of San Juan for days but we can keep checking the website! (Which has also been unavailable.) #sju

[Colleen Rocha Levine @ColleenLevine]

@JetBlue @MikeMurph19 “May be”??? All flights are cancelled but your customer service agents have been given even less info than we have!

[Colleen Rocha Levine @ColleenLevine]

@leftcoastbabe Sadly I had to cancel through Apple subscriptions so didn’t even get the satisfaction of telling them why. I’m guessing they have a good idea though.

A second life threatening storm in as many weeks is barreling towards Florida. The Speaker of the House won’t commit to vote on supplemental aid until after the election.

Just like with COVID, the GOP is playing politics with American lives.

Stop voting for Republicans.

‘Tis the season for delivery complaints. @fedex @fedexhelp sent this very helpful photo of my undelivered package & their “help” chat just keeps telling me it was marked delivered. 🤦🏻‍♀️

[Ali Krieger @alikrieger]

It really is.. and I’m so proud.
