El país pierde a una de sus figuras políticas más trascendentes de los últimos 30 años. La columna vertebral de los gobiernos del FA. Día triste para la República. 😪

Ojalá nos puedan acompañar. En el panel “ODS 16: construyendo instituciones sólidas” queremos pasar de describir la falta de instituciones a poner algunos “cómos” para el fortalecimiento y reconstrucción de instituciones. Nos vemos!

A stunning example of Dutch architecture and engineering where the vehicles seem to be crossing by magic.

I once posted another video of the Veluwemeer Aquaduct and a follower wrote back that this is impossible and thus fake, and that such a place doesn’t exist.

It does 🇳🇱

@FoodRescueDC Shall be there with bells on!

BREAKING NEWS: Democrats introduce a bill to create 18-year term limits for Supreme Court justices that would immediately force Justice Clarence Thomas into semi-retirement and remove him from active duty on the nation’s highest court. RT IF YOU SUPPORT THIS BILL!

In April of 2019, police received a report that the suspect had attempted suicide a week prior. Months later in September, his knife collection was confiscated after he made threats that he wanted to “kill everyone.” He was still able to purchase guns in 2020 and 2021.

I was one of the pediatricians in the #HighlandPark ER today. I’m devastated, afraid, & angry. What will it take for these senseless acts of violence to stop? How do I keep my patients safe? How do I keep my family safe? #ThisIsOurLane #GunViolence is a public health CRISIS.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

We need to:

Ban assault weapons — and if we can’t, then we should raise the age to purchase them from 18 to 21.

Ban high-capacity magazines.

Strengthen background checks.

Enact safe storage laws and red flag laws.

Repeal gun manufacturers’ immunity from liability.

@BetoORourke Thank you, Beto for calling for Abbott to step up against the gun lobby. Pretty certain the gun lobby money will drown out your voice of reason.

[Tracy Betts @tracybettsm]

@MittRomney @gailgriffith1 Yes! The answer is gun control!
