Four weeks ago, on March 26, there were 938 confirmed U.S. coronavirus deaths. Today, on April 26, there are now 54,530 confirmed U.S. deaths. In one month, more than 53,000 Americans have died. Mothers and fathers, sons and daughters, brothers and sisters. May they Rest In Peace

California Gov. Gavin Newsom has put into immediate effect "Restaurants Deliver: Home Meals for Seniors", a program that will pay local restaurants to deliver three nutritious meals every day of the week to at-risk seniors during the coronavirus epidemic.

I genuinely feel for Elizabeth Warren’s supporters. She has had one of the most competent and well put together campaigns that’s been balanced by passion and plans but, and I hate to say it, if she were a man she’d be in the top three in a walk.

The estimated number in New York is over 250’000! They closed the park because there were too many people... I’m speaking soon at Battery Park. #ClimateStrike

[Gale A. Brewer @galeabrewer]

NYCs massive #ClimateStrike march has begun, from Foley Sq down Centre St to Chambers St across to Broadway... and down to the Battery! Thank you @ClimateCrisis and everyone else marching!

Many will relate to The Million Little Heartbreaks of #Infertility: "Each week when I was pregnant, I took a pic of myself holding two blueberries, then kiwi, then lemons. This is the size of the babies!’ I’d text my husband. I HATE the fruit section now" https://t.co/XzVh658hGN

This week I was the very first black woman to graduate from the Uni of Glasgow with a PhD in Physics.

I'm a proud Black British woman from LDN. I made space for myself in a predominantly white, male field. It was hard, but with the support of my family & my community, I did it.

In Alabama—which banned abortion for rape victims — rapists have parental rights. Said one victim: “I’ve spent my entire life scared to death of my rapist, and now, I’m fighting him for custody of my children.” https://t.co/GuyEppM82n

A sign that everyone should read and share.

[HuffPost @HuffPost]

Sen. Cory Booker has a message for all men about abortion bans: “Men, it’s on us to listen, to speak out, and to take action... Women are people. And all people deserve to control their own bodies.” https://t.co/R6OffimK1g

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

Rapists should never be granted custody rights of their children.

Who's with me on this?

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

When a mass shooting is committed by a Muslim, the crime is almost automatically labeled as Domestic Terrorism.

But when White Supremacists like Dylann Roof shot up a black church, or attack the Tree of Life Synagogue, the FBI declined to charge them w/ Domestic Terrorism.

Why?

A rabbi's Boston suburb home was intentionally set on fire twice, while a nearby Chabad center was also set on fire, police said. https://t.co/YQtjJVrsSe

Erectile dysfunction is a part of God's plan to reduce abortions. We must criminalize the use of Viagra immediately to save us and legislate as much flaccidity as possible.

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

I am pro-life, yet I am pro-choice.

I am pro-2nd-Amendment, yet I am pro-gun-reform.

I am pro-law-enforcement, yet I don’t stand for police brutality .

I am pro-America, yet I am anti-Trump.

Who’s with me?

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

Even as states like Georgia, Alabama, Kentucky, Ohio, and Mississippi are hell-bent on overturning Roe v. Wade and outlawing abortion in this country, there are more of us across the country who are ready to defend women’s reproductive freedom. We won’t go backward.
