Explosion of new #COVID19 cases across Eastern Europe & UK. Surge so high that Latvia is forced into lockdown, and Latvia health minister blames “disinformation” about vaccines in Russian-language media for vaccine skepticism. New wave possibly restarting.

The US has the highest per capita rate of COVID-19 infection in the world. And that’s directly tied to racism, capitalism & the power that the far right exerts over the government here.

⚠️Record pediatric hospitalization trajectory—surpassing winter pandemic peak. And this is August, historically the lowest season for pediatric hospitalizations. #DeltaVariant surge will worsen for kids.🧵

Welcome to Colorful Colorado! All the nice views are obscured by air pollution that might give you a headache after 2 minutes outside. It’s also insanely hot out but you can escape the heat by heading into the mountains on a 5-hour detour around our highway covered in mud.

As you may be aware, @MayorHancock and the @CDPHE announced a public health order that includes new requirements for COVID-19 vaccinations. Here is an update on how this applies to Denver Public Schools ➡️ https://t.co/9P0H8d1Tsf

Remember when Kroger closed stores in Seattle and Long Beach because the cities mandated $4/hour raises for grocery workers?

Kroger just announced a $1 billion buyback for shareholders.

They also raised the CEO's pay 45% to $20.7 million

My contribution to the discourse is that if you make more than $20k you are in the top 10% of global income and if you make more than $58k you are literally a 1%er.

When the pandemic began there was 1 person worth $100 billion

Now there are 9

When the pandemic began the 10 richest people had $695 billion

Now they have $1.36 trillion

And they paid a lower tax rate than service workers who risked their lives for $7.25/hour in a pandemic

The money could transform their lives. But thousands of eligible kids may not get the new child tax credit

No one should be in jail for smoking marijuana.

No one should lose their job (or have a criminal record) for having smoked it.

*AND* no one should ever be banned from athletic competition bc of it.

End the stigma • Legalize it • Restore communities that have been damaged

In the richest country in the history of the world, medical debt should not exist.
