@AccountableGOP Hey Ted, remember what you and Lindsay said about this indicted "crook" way back in 2015 when you were running against him. You both said he would be the end of your Republican Party. Well congrats! You were right.

@LePapillonBlu2 Can we all, simultaneously from across the country, start chanting "Lock him up!" ?

[Marisa L. Wilson DNSc RN-BC CPHIMS FAMIA FIAH FAAN @DrMLWilson]

@CalltoActivism I really love the image of the woman with the sign that says the silent majority. No majority and she has a very big screaming mouth! They all do.

@MarshaBlackburn I cannot believe we are all being "ruled over" by the likes of you, Sen LG, Cong MTG,and LB. I am so happy the Biden Admin caught more fentanyl. Please really think before you tweet, if that is possible. I do not hold out hope.

When Tina Turner left her first husband - who was also her boss, captor, and brutal tormentor - she snuck out of their Dallas hotel room with a single thought in her mind: "The way out is through the door."
From there she fled across the midnight freeway, semi-trucks careening past her, with 36 cents and a Mobil gas card in her pocket. As soon as she decided to walk out that door, she owned nothing else.
When she filed for divorce, she made an unusual request. She didn't want anything: not the song rights, not the cars, not the houses, not the money. All she wanted was the stage name he gave her - Tina - and her married name - Turner. This was the name by which the world had come to know her, and keeping it was her only chance to salvage her career.
Things could have gone a lot of ways from there. She could have labored in obscurity for decades, maybe making records on small labels to be prized by vinyl connoisseurs in Portland. She could have stayed in Vegas, where she first went to get her chops back up, and worked as a nostalgia act. And, of course, given what she had been through, she might have ... not made it.
What happened instead is that Tina Turner became the biggest global rock star of the 80s. I'm old enough to barely remember this, but if you aren't, it was like this: The Rolling Stones would headline a stadium one day, and the next day it would be Tina Turner. A middle-aged Black woman - she became a rock star at 42! - sitting atop the 1980s like it was her throne.
She managed this because of whatever rare stuff she was made of (this is a woman whose label gave her two weeks to record her solo debut, Private Dancer, which went five times platinum); because she decided to speak publicly about her abusive marriage and forge her own identity, and in doing so give hope and courage to countless women; and also because - in a perhaps unlikely twist for a girl from Nutbush, Tennessee - she had her practice of Soka Gakkai Nichiren Buddhism, to which she credited her survival. She remained devout until the end.
Tina's second marriage - to her, her only marriage - was to Edwin Bach, a Swiss music executive 16 years her junior. Of him, she said, "Erwin, who is a force of nature in his own right, has never been the least bit intimidated by my career, my talents, or my fame."
In 2016, after a barrage of health problems, Tina's kidneys began to fail. A Swiss citizen by then, she had started preparing for assisted suicide when her husband stepped in. According to Tina, he said, "He didn't want another woman, or another life."
He gave her one of his kidneys, buying her the remainder of her time on this earth and perhaps closing a cycle which took her from a man who inflicted injury upon her to a man willing to inflict injury upon himself to save her from harm.
Born into a share-cropping family as Anna Mae Bullock in 1939, she died Tina Turner in a palatial Swiss estate: the queen of rock 'n roll; a storm of a performer with a wildcat-fierce voice; a dancer of visceral, spine-tingling potency and ability; a beauty for the ages; a survivor of terrible abuse and an advocate for others in similar situations; an author and actress; a devout Buddhist; a wife and mother; a human being of rare talent and perseverance who, through her transcendent brilliance, became a legend.

@SusanCHull I would have proudly worn a Patient ribbon above my Nursing Informatics ribbon.

Plus 1 and @DrMLWilson

[Marisa L. Wilson DNSc RN-BC CPHIMS FAMIA FIAH FAAN @DrMLWilson]

@SusanCHull Agreed!

@janicemccallum @SueWoods @JohnSharp @GraceCordovano @janoldenburg @ReginaHolliday @HealthHats I gladly join the effort as a nurse, leader, informatician, and Stage 4 Cholangiocarcinoma patient. I know what my peers need. And interestingly enough, very few vendors wanted to spend time hearing what I had to say!

[Marisa L. Wilson DNSc RN-BC CPHIMS FAMIA FIAH FAAN @DrMLWilson]

@SueWoods @janoldenburg @MightyCasey @ePatientDave @SusanCHull @GeriLynn @janicemccallum @HealthHats @Christina_HIT @boltyboy @Brian_Eastwood @ahier @ReginaHolliday @JohnSharp @SterlingHIT @GraceCordovano And it took a multi year effort to get this one. It struck me as amusing to see the word patient everywhere and realize I may have been a true lone voice!

@MarkYarchoan Interesting for me as a patient with neuropathy side effects from 16 cycles with Cisplatin.

[Really American 🇺🇸 @ReallyAmerican1]

Senator Josh Hawley raised a fist in solidarity with January 6th attackers

Rep. Paul Gosar posted a cartoon video that depicted the killing of AOC

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene posted a video in which she said Nancy Pelosi was a "traitor" who deserved to be executed

George Santos lied about nearly everything he told voters about himself before he was elected

None of these politicians have been expelled from Congress, but two brave young men who spoke out against the gun violence claiming the lives of children in Tennessee were wrongly expelled.

We must make this moment count.

In 2022, I lost to Lauren Boebert by only 546 votes. It was the closest race in the entire country.

Now, I’m running again, but I need grassroots donors like you to give now:

Please, will you chip in $10 or more right now to my campaign and help me defeat Lauren Boebert?

[Bishop Talbert Swan @TalbertSwan]

Watch as Uvalde police roughly remove the mother of one of the victims killed during the Robb Elementary School massacre.

They weren’t so tough when they stood around afraid to engage an active shooter who was murdering 19 children.
