We're facing a national nursing shortage—in the middle of a pandemic—and Kaiser Permanente wants to cut starting salaries by 39%. The health care giant made $2.2 billion in profits last year, but they can't find funds to pay workers what they deserve? 🤔

The U.S. conducted 67 nuclear weapons tests in the Marshall Islands during the Cold War. We buried our waste under Runit Dome. Now, toxins are leaking into the water, but the U.S. says we're not responsible. As a law professor, I knew how to debunk our government's excuse.
My entire time on twitter, I have never once asked you to retweet something. I am asking now. Please let people hear Brevard, FL School Board member Jennifer Jenkins tonight detail the threats and intimidation her, her family, and her neighbors have been subjected to this year.
I was so excited when someone told me that Lil Nas X had done my song #Jolene. I had to find it and listen to it immediately…and it's really good. Of course, I love him anyway. I was surprised and I'm honored and flattered. I hope he does good for both of us. Thank you @LilNasX
So proud of "The Purple Heart Battalion"! Thanks to the Finalist placement in the @PAGEawards, it's now in the top 2% on @Coverfly. These heroic Japanese-American soldiers fought racism and fascism; I hope this is step toward their story being told. https://t.co/YX1EHmeIvu
@SharinStone@SolNataMD Understand the concern for sure. In the ICUs I've seen, a team approach is used with the nurses and nurse aides for cases such as those. It works well, but it may not work well for all. Good luck everything and I wish you well!
@SharinStone@SolNataMD Also, ICU nurses are highly skilled and specialized. It's always strange when the first thing that comes to mind when talking about a nurse is "bathing patients". Do people know that bathing patients and such is usually delegated to nurse aides?
@SharinStone@SolNataMD Agree with the accountability aspect, but if ICU nurses are managing the care of 3 to 4 critically ill patients, do they really have the time? That ratio is usually for tele patients.
