@JulieG @USAHEC Such an important mission.

Unlike other world religions, Christians have a specific idea of God. We see God as a personal God. https://t.co/FrI8F1nLS1

Sure will pray.

[U.S. Surgeon General @Surgeon_General]

I try not to get too personal on my official account, but my wife (@lada9912) is starting treatment for metastatic melanoma today. Prayers appreciated. 🙏🏽

And please, don’t let ANYTHING, including #COVID19, cause you to delay seeing your doctor for care or screenings!

On this day in 1908, Dr. Michael DeBakey, a Lebanese-American cardiac and vascular surgeon, was born. He is known for his many surgical innovations including coronary bypass operations, carotid endarterectomy, artificial hearts and ventricular assist devices. #Histweet

For years, the @DeptVetAffairs has used taxpayer dollars to conduct harmful tests on cats that include performing invasive surgeries on them, damaging their spinal cords, and ultimately killing them. Today @RepBrianMast and I are demanding answers about these shameful practices.

The @US_FDA is forcing drugmakers to poison & kill 20K puppies/yr in wasteful, slow and costly tests. 🐶💀💊💉

Now, 18 Congressmembers are joining us to #CutFDARedTape to “save time, money and dogs, and accelerate medical innovation." ✂️💸🛑 https://t.co/ECgAukgc6T

So Does Sen Scott’s point make sense? We have a Republican majority in Senate and Republican President. Blame yourself.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Unfortunately, as Alison enters her 9th day with Covid, she has now lost both her sense of taste and smell. Thanks for your continued prayers as she fights this virus.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us pray for the victims of the explosions in Beirut and for their families; and let us pray for Lebanon so that, through the dedication of all its social, political and religious elements, it might face this extremely tragic and painful moment.

[U.S. Surgeon General @Surgeon_General]

Today we passed 100,000 U.S. lives lost to #COVID19. Each life lost is a tragedy, and this is certainly a somber milestone.

Please 🙏🏽 help slow the spread with w/ good hand hygiene, physical distancing, and choosing to wear a face covering in public.

That’s a bunch of crap. He alerted WH in mid Jan

Fauci is now saying that had Trump listened to the medical experts earlier he could've saved more lives.

Fauci was telling people on February 29th that there was nothing to worry about and it posed no threat to the US public at large.

Time to #FireFauci...

[John Lewis @repjohnlewis]

55 years ago today, we were beaten, tear gassed, and trampled by horses. I thought I saw death. I thought I was going to die. I don't know how I made it back, but I know we cannot rest. We cannot become weary. We must keep pushing and pulling and find a way to get in the way.

[William Barko @WFBarko]

Thanks Congressman for your support

A classmate once set Fiona Hill’s pigtails on fire during a test. She put it out with her hands and finished the test.

Dr. Hill says, “Afterwards, my mother gave me a bowl haircut. For the school photograph later in that week, I looked like Richard III."

Comcast requiring you to buy their sports package in order to get Turner Classic Movies is absurd and an abuse of their customers.
