A friend took his kids to July 4th Parade in Highland Park today. His son has special needs.
When shots rang out, they ran for their lives, the dad pushing his grown son's wheelchair--which at one point tumbled over.
On America's day, what has become a sickeningly American story.
As American as a mass-shooting at a 4th of July parade and apple pie. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
This is a uniquely American epidemic and national crisis. And the Supreme Court just made it worse.
Today the @indgop removed all references of DEMOCRACY from its platform. In the face of this rising authoritarianism, good people refuse to stand by and do nothing. Our better angels must stand up — #VoteYourDestiny & safeguard our treasured democracy!
If you are a vet grateful to @LindseyGrahamSC for his support of newly arrived #Afghans who stood with us for years, please QT this to say thank you and share what it means to you. #AfghanEvac
Journalists (and anyone): after 20 years of US presence, and about a month of constant increased attention, there is no excuse for you to not know that Afghans are the people from Afghanistan and Afghanis are the currency.
This is not that hard.
Okay folks, we've got a lot of moving pieces here trying to help get folks out of #Afghanistan. You can watch the news to see the situation on the ground but what I'm helping with is organizing a charter flight and taking pledges for folks who want to help cover the costs.
We made history tonight! I am so grateful to be the Democratic nominee for Virginia’s 86th District. Thank you for everyone who had faith in me and supported me in this campaign.
That's ^ the kicker. @AmericanAir has eliminated the duty (staff position) to do a sweep of lost and found on weekends. Which just shows how little they care about customer experience. Will be at least 72 hours to get a phone returned 7/?
The @americanair agent said all lost and found is handled by baggage claim. So I went to the Term A Bag Claim (closed) then the Terminal C Office. The agent explained to me that a Lost & Found sweep wasn't done on Saturday or Sunday and would be done "at some point" Monday 6/?
I didn't hear back from @AmericanAir employee. Has been 48 hours now re my claim. So yesterday I went to PHL, booked a refundable ticket to get past security and went to special services by A17. The agent (who was one of the more helpful in this experience) didn't have phone 5/?
