“COVID-19 Is Killing My People—And No One Seems to Care”
“In the first two weeks of July, while Houston was logging two deaths per 100,000 people,
and Texas overall was logging three deaths per 100,000, Hidalgo County was logging 17 per 100,000.
I was offline for much of the time I was hospitalized,
drifting in and out of consciousness.”

51% of registered Georgian’s have already voted!!!!
The results of Georgia early voting are in: nearly 3.9 million early and absentee ballots cast so far — more than half of all registered voters. https://t.co/5aKAWQsgva
Of voters in the presidential election who also participated in the primary, 54% of them pulled Democratic ballots, @markniesse reports. About 43% used GOP ballots. Half of all voters in this election didn’t cast ballots in the primary. #gapolhttps://t.co/mO76K33AdE

I can’t stop smiling…for this Nightmare is almost coming to an end.
Thank You, Lord🙏💪🙏🙌🙌
Obama going after Trump in MI: “He’s still worrying about his inauguration crowd being smaller than mine…He’s still talking about that. Does he have nothing better to worry about? Did no one come to his birthday party when he was a kid? Was he traumatized? What’s with crowds?”
Our @ARRAYNow team created a drive-in last night of SELMA, a film about the fight for voting rights, while the @LACountyRRCC was on-site with voting machines for folks to exercise their right. One of the most powerful social justice/cinema experiences I’ve had. [🎥:@BeverlyNBCLA] pic.twitter.com/PKL2EjG1co

Joe Biden tweeted just now:
“President Obama and I left President Trump a playbook on how to deal with pandemics. He flat-out ignored it. And we’re suffering every day because of it.”
WATCH: @BarackObama hits Trump for his super-spreader rallies:
"There was just a study by Stanford University showing that thousands of people are likely to have gotten sick because of these rallies he's holding." pic.twitter.com/Sop5PAcT3a
Just look at our guys; my stress level goes down when i see them. Been waiting to exhale for 4 years; been waiting not to wake up with that what-the- fuck -has- happened- now news. We will still have a shit load of old and new crap to deal with even if we win the presidency and the senate, but I am alright with that because we will have people on place who will lead us as we dig our way out. They will help, not hinder as we rebuild, restore and renew.
A key deadline for challenging voter eligibility in Pennsylvania passed Friday without either party challenging a single application for mail-in ballots in the state’s largest city of Philadelphia, cutting off a pathway to claim voter fraud. https://t.co/xWPvgKBt9t
Obama and Biden are stopping by a canvass kickoff in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. About three dozen people are standing socially distanced outside in a church parking lot, in front of a series of tables set up with canvassing materials. pic.twitter.com/Nlxdz0Rt48
Republicans have tried to get ballots thrown out in every presidential election for a generation. What we're seeing is nothing new. It's not some magic wand. They have their lawyers, we have ours. It only matters if the result is close to begin with. So make sure it's not close.
Gotta say the long line at the Franklin County Vote Center had a party feel to it at times with all of the entertainment there. Congresswoman Joyce Beatty had her boogie on today. Lots of voters were dancing in line. #election2020#columbus#Ohiopic.twitter.com/5fGcOiQQ6k
.@natfrum and @beatrice_frum were at this event, recorded the whole thing on video – and were both tear-gassed for being there, @natfrum repeatedly. (He was tear-gassed the first time when he tried to retrieve an elderly woman's wheel chair for her after police tear-gassed her.) https://t.co/XZV4Im22Oc
Some background: Alamance County Sheriff Terry Johnson was reprimanded by the U.S. DOJ in 2012 for numerous constitutional violations + an "egregious pattern of racial profiling." He was then re-elected twice, in 2014 and 2018, after no one ran against him https://t.co/1Qsa3syXUE
More info on exactly what was happening before the pepper pray started today in Alamance. Plus, confirmation that a reporter was among those arrested #ncpolhttps://t.co/F9YuEBzFFc
Texas, rightly gets a lot of attention for its early vote totals. But worth noting, Georgia voters have cast 3,880,984 votes already, accounting for 93.2% of their total 2016 general election turnout. North Carolina has cast 4,345,427 votes or 91.1% of their 2016 turnout.
They can’t vote (yet), but they can march and scream. Watch this video by @javajacobs featuring young girls making their case for voting for those who can’t pic.twitter.com/fBLrG489D4
VP Joe Biden in Detroit:
(just ended…a few notes)
“President Obama was a great president…thank you for everything and thanks for reminding us what we
can be again.”
“3 days to put an end to a presidency that has divided this nation…fanned the flames of hate…millions more are going to vote in the days…the power to change the country is in your hands.”
“He suggested that doctors were falsely inflating deaths to make money…what is wrong with this man…It’s more than offensive it’s a disgrace, especially coming from a president who has waved the white flag…”
““The first step of beating this virus is beating Donald Trump.”
“Wall Street did not build this (country) you did…and unions built the middle class.”
“We should be rewarding work not wealth.”
“WE’RE GOING TO find those kids and unite them with their parents!!!”
“Let’s hear it from the cars made here in Michigan!”
“There’s no red state or blue state, it’s everybody”
“There’s no limit to America’s future.”
“Hope over fear…unity over division…science over fiction…truth over lie, after lie, after lie.”
“Its time to stand up and take back our democracy.”
–Michigan go to iwillvote.com/mi
–Hoo boy! Was JOE ever in high gear!!!

NEW: The Miami-Dade state attorney is requesting all postal distribution centers be audited and that all ballots remaining at the centers be immediately transported to the Department of Elections.
State Attorney Katherine Fernandez-Rundle says her office is working with Miami-Dade Dept. of Elections and the United States Postal Inspector's Office to make sure all ballots are accounted for.
"I further understand that administrative action was taken by the Office of the Attorney General regarding the employee’s negligence at the Princeton distribution center," Fernandez-Rundle said.
State Attorney says her office is closely monitoring the "voter protection hotline." Anyone who suspects improper or irregular activities at early voting sites is urged to call the Hotline at 305-547-3300, she says.

I want to extend my prayers and condolences to the Chaldean Assyrian Community this 10th anniversary of Our Lady of Deliverance church massacre in Baghdad. The right to worship is fundamental, and as Americans we should be proud that people from around the world find a home here.
John Lewis said: “Your vote is precious, almost sacred. It is the most powerful nonviolent tool we have to create a more perfect union.” @JoeBiden & @KamalaHarris understand this, now it’s our moment to ‘Champion’ them because they ‘Champion’ our United States of America. #Votepic.twitter.com/BijwMevIfh

‘We can vote out white supremacy’
Black Lives Matter co-founders Alicia Garza and Patrisse Cullors
joined The ReidOut to talk about the importance of voting. Cullors says, “Now is the time to change the course of history … We can vote out white supremacy Nov. 3. And we can make sure white supremacy does not win.”

How sick is this?!
Very sorry about the double post. I thought I had successfully copied a link to another and more happier tweet.
✊🏾
guessing it’s getting close to kick off in Detroit.
“So enough with this president. we want another
one who doesn’t whine more than my little brother.”
“Someone who will unite us,
who will stop trying to fight and incite us.”
“‘Cause we’re sick of division and lies,”
“and despite my size, I’m coming for you”
“and I’m growing, too.”
What”s going on???
Was just coming to post this. 😀😀😄🧡💛💚
