Abdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.

Drowning is a leading cause of death for U.S. kids under 5. It can happen silently and in seconds. Assign a water watcher to keep eyes on kids in/near water at all times. Don't assume other adults or even lifeguards have eyes on your kid especially in crowded areas.

Graphic stating 'Assign a water watcher—an adult who will pay constant attention to children in the water.' Below, a list titled 'If you are the water watcher, be sure to:' includes putting down your cell phone, avoiding other activities, supervising even if there are lifeguards, and switching off with another adult for breaks. An illustration of an eye appears on the right. Footer shows logos for HealthyChildren.org and the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Mitch McConnell’s communications director’s silence and smirk speak volumes. If he were fine, or even improving, she’d just say so. There’s no way this man is coming back.

I had to code and pronounce a time of death on a respiratory therapist colleague. There's a memorial plaque for her outside the emergency department to this day. I wrote and re-wrote my will. I will never forgive these ghouls trying to rewrite history and deny our experience.

RFK Jr said these words today on national television "There were ICUs that were empty all over the country including in New York at the height (of the pandemic)" hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha You are a fucking idiot hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha <sobs silently>

In Texas, Tarrant County Judge Tim O’Hare cleared the meeting room, silencing public opposition to the GOP plan to eliminate half of the battleground county’s Election Day voting locations before the midterms.

I’ve been notified of another death in ICE custody. This is the 55th death under Trump’s second term and the second reported death at Delaney Hall in less than 8 months. We must end the use of these deadly private prisons and reform our country’s cruel detention policies.

Meanwhile, the General Services Administration last week issued a $128K contract to "convert a supply storage room into a secure detainee eating room" at the Calexico West Border Crossing.

Screenshot of a contract description field on a federal solicitation and award website which says that a contract will "convert an existing supply storage room into a secure detainee eating room in accordance with the statement of work at the Calexico West Border Station, Administration Building, 200 First Street, Calexico, CA 92231."

Yesterday's temperature topped 105° in Fresno. "Carlos" and team were working in the watermelons. "Our team is paid piece rate. The more boxes we fill the more we make. The person closest to the truck has the hardest job so we switch off. This is exhausting work." #WeFeedYou

I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.
