I don’t post a lot of memes but this is pure art. Whoever made it, take a bow.

Wondering how much it will cost if you actually get #COVID19? I talked to a woman who was uninsured when she got the virus, and her medical bills total $34,927.43. https://t.co/2hZoc7eNGL

I’m an American in my late 30s and had never heard of “Black Wall Street” or the Tulsa Race Riots until tonight. I only learned of them after researching a scene in #Watchmen that I initially assumed was a fictional event because of the aircraft.

Wow. :(

Scientists warn that losing another fifth of Brazil’s Amazon will trigger the feedback loop known as dieback, in which the forest begins to dry out and burn in a cascading system collapse, beyond the reach of any subsequent human intervention or regret. https://t.co/oQquBYsM3Z

The Amazon Rainforest is on fire.

Iceland mourned the passing of a glacier.

Wildfires ravaged the arctic circle.

197,000,000,000,000 kilograms of water melted off of Greenland’s ice sheet

Sea ice is at a record low.

July was the hottest month on record.

The video below is amazing. It's the tweet EVERY American should RETWEET.

[NowThis Impact @nowthisimpact]

Exclusive: @robreiner, @SophiaBush, @StephenKing, @jvn, and more are cutting through the Trump administration’s lies about the Mueller report

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

Trump says we have "the cleanest air in the world."

Not so. In fact, air quality is declining for the first time in years. Just as the Trump Administration rolls back the regulations designed to protect us.

Some falsehoods are worse than others. This one could give you cancer.

[David Fahrenthold @Fahrenthold]

NEW: We got leaked documents detailing 1,200+ different stays at @realDonaldTrump's hotel. Here's the guest who stayed the longest: a sheikh who wants to be president of Iraq, and who wants the U.S. to strike Iran.
He spent 26 nights in a suite.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

It still blows my mind that the CEOs who crashed our economy + caused millions of people to lose their homes not only escaped handcuffs; but got bonuses, too.💸

Many still have influential roles shaping the economy today.

But we’re the crazy ones for wanting to tax ‘em, right?

[Jon Cooper 🇺🇸 @joncoopertweets]

BREAKING: #LindseyGrahamResign has been tweeted out over 20,000 times since @TheDemCoalition started to promote it this morning. Graham SHOULD resign. Him telling Don Jr to ignore a Senate subpoena is more than enough to warrant his resignation. Everyone who retweets this agrees.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Going from waitressing a year ago to now carries a LOT of life-adjustments.

But 3 paychecks in has shown me how 1 of the greatest scams in US is the idea that financial struggle is due to “poor character.”

It’s a huge myth designed to keep people from empowering themselves. /1

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

In two years, post-Watergate rules have been obliterated. After Trump, a president under investigation can:

Fire the FBI Director leading the probe,
Fire the Attorney General not protecting him,
and appoint one who will.

It’s the most profound attack on rule of law in decades.

[Rachel Maddow @maddow]

“I’ve never seen this many whistleblowers reporting waste, fraud, abuse and just general concern,” said a senior Oversight Committee aide. “I’ve also never seen whistle-blowers so afraid of what could happen to them if somebody finds out who they are.”

Breaking News: It's the burning of fossil fuels!

[Seth Abramson @SethAbramson]

I'm going to tell you now the chief thing I've learned from many months of research for my forthcoming book Proof of Conspiracy: Jared Kushner is now the greatest domestic danger to America. And many former US government officials know for a fact that what I've just said is true.

[Jonathan Allen @jonallendc]

While you were hyper-focused on the latest @AOC tempest in a teapot, the Congressional Budget Office reported that the Trump tax cut will add more than $1.6 trillion to the debt over the next decade.
