Thank you dudette, for letting us know about how to get around a firewall. I have seen other other ways to get around them, but this seems real easy. I do have an on-line subscription for the Washington Post.
Jill and I mourn the loss of the nine service members who perished in a training accident off the coast of California. These brave young men made the ultimate sacrifice in service to their fellow Americans. Our deepest condolences go out to their families.
Sir – Bravo! Do everything you can to save the #USPS! It's in the same category for Americans as this list: Hands off the USPS, Social Security, Medicare, ACA, Medicaid, and – for federal government employees – the OPM! We support you! @NALC_National@SpeakerPelosi@JoeBidenhttps://t.co/1wf57NEbrX
I was an intern for then-Senator @BarackObama. Today, Iโm the youngest Black woman to ever serve in Congress. Iโm thrilled to have earned the endorsement of President Obama in my reelection campaign.
The VA Mail Order Pharmacy provides approx 80% of all outpatient prescriptions to Vets. It processes 470,000 scripts daily & over 330,000 Vets receive a package of scripts in the mail every day.
I attended the briefing today by @ODNIgov regarding foreign-based election interference.
I remain very concerned information is being withheld from the public that could help voters distinguish legitimate political speech from foreign propaganda.
How is this not "Traitor" behavior…it might not Fit the definition of Treason…but it certainly falls into the High Crimes and Misdemeanors category….and it is not just Trump..but all his collaborators who serve and protect him & NOT the American people or the Constitution https://t.co/5CnsflJZbD

As I explained the other day, Iโm writing postcards out to send to swing state voters and ordered $70 worth of stamps from USPS online…. well, I got them yesterday and they had a handwritten Thank You!! With a smiley face. If you are able to help them out, it is appreciated and needed. Imagine life with no postal workers…and mail delivered
Iโm at the @USPS online store. Gonna buy a bunch of cool stamps and a Mr. Zip T-shirt. Probably spend around $50. Any of you that can ALSO do that? Probably make it harder for Donald to justify shutting them down? pic.twitter.com/UFAZSBiIpy

Happy Birthday, Mr. President @BarackObama, not a day goes by when we don't miss your uniting, caring, intelligent voice and uncompromising leadership.

Since #ObamaDay is trending, I wanna remind a day Obama sat alone in classroom rewriting his remarks before speaking at memorial service for victims of Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.

Me too. A friend of mine in a different county told me her son had to go back because some of his classes online are not offered online. He told her there have been very minor safety changes and only half the students are wearing masks. ๐ฑ
Like lambs to the slaughter. Another friend said masks arenโt mandatory in her kidsโ school district โand Iโm sure after a few days only few will wear it.โ
I just canโt even…
In honor of former President Barack Obama's 59th birthday, here are 10 facts you probably didn't know about him. Happy Birthday President Obama! #ObamaDaypic.twitter.com/JpMyBoQsoG
Great credit for poise and preparedness to @jonathanvswan
Setting also very relevant. Trump usually only tolerates such sessions w Hannity, Fox&Friends etc. He is simply defenseless against a prepared, unflappable questioner. https://t.co/iM8apriBvP
Wishing a Happy 59th Birthday to the only real president weโve ever known, imho. And to the Duchess of Sussex, so important a voice in these times.

My God. Lebanon economy collapsing and now this massive explosion. Beirut port (and a lot more, from the looks of it) utterly destroyed. Canโt imagine the human toll we are going to see. pic.twitter.com/vljWYftJWE
I guess they realized that trying to stop mail-in/absentee voting will also impact Republican votes…maybe more so. But it can’t be okay in some states and not others. It can’t be okay for one party over the other.
WOW….We need mote of this…perhaps it can put a damper on folks who refuse to wear a mask
We've lost more than 7,000 Pennsylvania lives to #COVID19.
This heartbreaking loss is why we need to take #COVID19 seriously. By following health guidance we can protect others from losing their lives to this illness. https://t.co/QeyEMvHdxk

Iโm looking forward to discussing my memoir โTough Love,โ which is our in paperback today, with DCโs finest โฆ@kojoshowโฉ on @WAMU today at noon.
One year ago, just hours after the massacre in El Paso, nine precious lives were cut short in Dayton. In the wake of the tragedies, Donald Trump promised the most modest of gun safety policies, then caved to the @NRA and failed to deliver.
As president, Iโll take on the powerful gun lobby to pass universal background checks, ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and close loopholes to keep guns out of dangerous hands. We can and will end our gun violence epidemic.
Someone on tRump’s staff have put together *pictures* that depict the Covid-19 numbers in a more “positive????” light.
How he can just gloss over the fact that 150K+ (~1000/day) is beyond me.
But rather than looking at what’s happening HERE…NOW, he likes to pivot with “but what about…” He can talk about what’s happening in other countries and try to spin it to make it seem like the US isn’t doing so bad after all. [That’s like talking about how well the stock market is doing to someone who is living paycheck to paycheck.] His spinning doesn’t help the families who have lost loved ones or who have loved ones who are sick and alone. It doesn’t help the businesses that are struggling because you know who doesn’t want to claim responsibility and doesn’t want to set any national mandates or use/apply federal resources except where he thinks it will profit him or aid him in his campaign. It doesn’t help teachers and students go back into the classrooms in an environment that is safe.
Shady data broker @Mobilewalla collected location data from thousands of #BlackLivesMatter protesters without their knowledge & wrote a report about it. We have huge concerns that this data could be sold to the government & weaponized by the police or ICE. https://t.co/ukL13US4Cm
The Latino community is bearing disproportionate harm from this pandemic. But even before, many Latino families were already struggling. We've got to do better. That's why today, I'm releasing my new agenda for the Latino community: https://t.co/xgGUoleGQO
Today is Primary Day in Arizona, Kansas, Michigan, Missouri, and Washington. If you havenโt already, be sure to turn in your vote-by-mail ballot and if youโre heading to the polls, please wear a mask and maintain social distancing when possible. Your vote and your safety matters.
Millions more Americans are heading to the polls today and Congress still hasn't passed legislation to ensure voting is safe and accessible during this pandemic.
We can't wait any longer. It's time to pass my VoteSafe Act so no one risks their health to cast their ballot.
'They already don't have any more beds available in ICU… it's a humanitarian disaster' – witness on the ground in Beirut says the coronavirus means hospitals are already struggling.
At least 10 people have been killed in a huge explosion.
And the other really striking thing about this interview that comes into full view is just how very much Trump has been allowed to skate uncritically, unchallenged, for the last 4 years. https://t.co/8DGchxKr8S
Impeachment is supposed to be the check on a rogue President. McConnell failed; America suffers. Trump is abusing all this power b/c those who are supposed to check him havenโt. So if Trump needs to go, so does McConnell. Iโm just saying …
— Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II (@RevDrBarber) August 4, 2020
McConnell & Republicans in the Senate are the cause of all of this b/c they refused to check this president. Donโt forget this. Tell everybody, there is an election coming.
