We have to push ourselves to avoid becoming desensitized to Covid's toll.

In 2005, Hurricane Katrina killed 1500 people in New Orleans. It was a tragedy & a political scandal.

Covid has now killed more Americans (396,000) than the entire population of New Orleans (390,000).

The incredible show of force that we saw in DC this summer... Where is it? That was nowhere near what we are seeing happen today as lawmakers in both chambers are in lockdown and unable to continue their duties while violent protestors storm the Capitol.

A 🧵 on COVID Living Room Spread:

Saturday:

- Older, out of the house brother wants to visit younger siblings.

Mom says "get a test on the way, if you are negative you can come."

- Rapid test is (-), family spends a day together inside, laughing, playing, eating.

This holiday, I’m gonna stay home in my trash can and avoid people.

Having a difficult time putting into words the feeling I had when I left the hospital after doing chest compressions on a coding young person who lost their fight with COVID, to see a normal packed Friday night at bars and restaurants...

So much lying from Trump and some of his allies today, and it’s a one-line fact check every time:

What’s happening is that legitimate votes are being legitimately counted, the end.

[Vote Save America @votesaveamerica]

Report voter intimidation, then vote. Don't let anyone stop you, it's your right to vote safely and fairly.

If your vote didn’t matter Trump wouldn’t be trying so hard to throw it out

NEWS: Sec. of State @JocelynBenson advises Michigan voters NOT to rely on USPS at this stage. "Citizens who already have an absentee ballot should sign the back of the envelope and hand-deliver it to their city or township clerk’s office or ballot drop box as soon as possible."

The claim that Congresswomen @IlhanMN and @RashidaTlaib had an itinerary dedicated to harm and incite against Israel is directed not only against them, but against myself.

It is a false claim.

Within a day of a mass shooting in New Zealand, the country’s prime minister vowed gun laws would change. (And they did.)

Within a day of a mass shooting in the United States… there was another mass shooting in the United States.
