These are the medicines required to keep a COVID patient alive each day in ITU, many of which have been exposed to fewer trials and given to fewer patients than the vaccine. I’m urging my colleagues not to wait to be told by government to have the jab - it’s SAFE and SAVES lives
A drone pilot has captured incredible footage of a volcano erupting in Iceland.
Bjorn Steinbekk risked losing his FPV drone as he flew the camera directly over the lava as it continued to shoot and spill from the Fagradalsfjall volcano near Iceland's capital, Reykjavik.
I keep seeing the line 'EU is having vaccine problems because it was too slow in negotiating contracts' repeated in 🇬🇧&🇺🇸 media.
I want to push back on this narrative because I think it's missing where real EU-level mistakes lie. Let's review what happened in past year (🧵1/17)
If we didn’t win both seats in Georgia, there would be no stimulus checks, no money for schools to reopen, no relief for businesses, no state and local aid and no increased funding for vaccines. If that doesn’t prove voting matters, I don’t know what does.
@OrigamiDad Similar experience: When I was very young, my grand-grandmother was still alive, and I (vaguely) remember some visits.
I recently noticed on her tombstone that she was born in 1880.
To the women who lead
To the women who change the game
To the women who use their platforms for good
To the women who are raising future women leaders with confidence, equality & guts.
And to all who fight for a better world for girls & women.
Happy #InternationalWomensDay!
Okay, Mitch, if you really think Trump incited insurrection but you couldn't convict because he's no longer president, I've got a solution for you: Co-sponsor (w Chuck) a resolution invoking Sec 3 of 14th Am, barring anyone from holding office who has "engaged in insurrection."
This reasoning (if we can even call it that) is infuriating for so many reasons, not least of which is that @LeaderMcConnell refused to allow the trial to occur while Trump was still in office!
Trump LOST: the presidency, the House, the Senate, the trust of American voters, the belief in free and fair elections, the credibility of the Republican Party, the admiration of our allies, the fear of our enemies. What exactly are Republicans defending?
Reminder: more people died on January 6th than Benghazi. They died on American soil. They died at the Capitol itself. 10 investigations into Clinton continued long after she was no longer Secretary of State.
