Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "[JD Vance]'s comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."
.@repterrisewell@SenTuberville@SenKatieBritt Food is NOT optional. Many older adults, people with disabilities, children, and families are already going hungry. Playing the blame game is not feeding anyone. Every member of Congress should act to fund SNAP.
As a psychologist, I recommend reflecting each day on something simple that made you proud. Then, ground it in the current context.
For example: "Today, I did ________, during the 11th wave of an ongoing pandemic infecting >1 million Americans/day, amid geopolitical crises."

From a Twitter friend, regarding Novavax availability at CostCo:
"Sanofi will be distributing Novavax this season and they expect FDA to approve the 25-26 formulation in late Sept/early Oct. We have placed preorders and will have it in stock when available."
July 15, 2021
That's the last day the U.S. dipped below 200,000 daily COVID infections, per PMC estimates from CDC wastewater data.
We're hovering not far above that at an estimated 232,000/day.
Take notice. Cases will tick up again soon.
@SenBillCassidy If federal, state and local education authorities actually followed the law it would improve outcomes. This sends a message to state DOEs and local boards they can disregard laws that protect the students with the most needs with impunity. Local control failed my daughter.
I love my country with all my heart and I've never been more embarrassed for America than the spectacle I just witnessed in the Oval Office.
Zelensky is fighting for the survival of his country, his people and their democracy.
Trump and Vance appear to be completely aligned with Putin, the invader whose aim has been to conquer Ukraine.
Zelensky should know that millions and millions of Americans still stand with him and his valiant people.
This is a hell of a video.🔥📹
"So they know Covid spreads in the air like smoke.
They know it's still infecting disabling and killing us.
And they know they can easily prevent it."
