@DowdEdward @RobertKennedyJr can you seriously not see how claiming something that has been a campaign theme for decades, "reaching across the aisle," just resonates as more empty rhetoric.
We need a surrender, not a truce. #HealTheDivide requires the enemy to be onboard. RIGHT?

You don't pretend, as a former dynasty family, that it is your turn in the barrel, as if that somehow projects you alone can fix this. It's like a kid saying pick me pick me and the school is burning to the ground.
It is #Psychotic on its' face.

We need to fight back, because their war is just getting started, REMEMBER? Remember #Agenda2030? Remember saying "I will die with my boots on?"
Where did that man go? You think because you claim you can #HealTheDivide, that makes it so, when your enemy is on the march?

Ok it's probably time to compile a thread and share some of my #JMac story. I married a #TMU student. We didn't live near the campus or GCC main as his job had him traveling a lot and we moved a lot. Every place we lived, we looked for a #TMS connected church. A 🧵.
When one of my children was a newborn, just days old, I was holding the baby and my ex backhanded me across the face. He'd had a bad day at work. He called his parents (in another state) who flew in, contacted a #GCC approved counselor through their network.

I am the Minister for Land Use and Biodiversity, and I will call out bad & needless practice when I see it. Some might turn a blind eye - I won’t. Why would I? I regularly highlight positive actions, and I can assure you all that those are much more satisfying to report. 1/10
Of course certain actions are sometimes necessary, and indeed legal, but that does not mean it is always the RIGHT thing to do. This applies both to farmers and public bodies. Nature is under huge pressure. Ecology is breaking down. #BiodiversityCrisis 2/10
Yes, burning bushes is legal, but doing it during a high fire risk warning & during the nesting season is not right. Birds such as Blackbird, Robin & Wren will often nest in bushes piled up in the spring. Hedgehogs too may seek hibernation in such habitats over the winter. 3/10
I want to share an analogy & call to #Hospitals to #ProtectHCWs. 2+ years yet hospitals leave workers open to PREVENTABLE death & disability. They need to held to task & REQUIRED to properly & fully protect their workers. Please join me & share this. #HCWs #Covid #LongCovid (1/3)
#HCWs DESERVE government protections, as do patients! It is unethical for them to continue to skirt proper air filtration & personal protective equipment MINIMUMS. @OSHA_DOL are you listening? #OSHA #P100 #respirators #Ventilate #HEPA #LongCovid #CovidIsNotOver #MaskUp (2/3)
Providing P100 respirators, increasing proper indoor air filtration, & testing workers regularly will help attract & retain staff. In addition to it being the RIGHT THING TO DO! Questions? Contact me #DoTheRightThing #LegislateProtection #ProtectHCWs #Nurses #ProtectRNs (3/3)

What evidence do we have that a legislative branch that did nothing after 20 6yo’s were murdered at #sandyhook will do anything substantive about #January6th? The playbook has already been actuated. 1/
First, some will condemn the event and place accurate blame, but others will give passionate speeches that stop short of identifying or admitting the root cause, and still others will remain silent. #ThoughtsAndPrayers will be offered. 2/
This will be followed by a period of various forms of delay - slow responses, meetings, congressional schedules, legal maneuvers, etc. - to allow raw emotions to quell, and inurement to do its work. 3/
THREAD: The wait is over...today, on #MLKDay, we launch our #researchpaper -the first of its kind- to recognise the diverse voices of Wales 🏴 in the context of Public and Political life for an #AntiRacistWales. Exec summary here: bit.ly/3bPtfCk pls share 🙏🏿
Months ago, we launched our Manifesto. This would not have been possible without our great team of long-term supporters, contributors and friends. A major THANK YOU is needed. We also need to thank our 4 Peer Researchers and the hours put in which led to the birth of this paper.
To give some insight, here are some important stats from the research. We strongly recommend that you review, recognise and reflect upon each of them. Remember - this is only the beginning, but having published research means that many diverse voices are heard, not sidelined. 👏🏾
🗣 Maxine Waters on @allinwithchris: We should have impeached him sooner.
100%. It doesn't matter that the Senate would not convict. He should have been impeached earlier, more often and/or continually investigated; he admitted that this hurt him.
He lives in the moment & would have been distracted. He even said he deserved a third term because of it.

I've no doubt OrangeMan is getting "consideration" from Putin for continuing to create chaos in this country. Between COVID & the election [I mean, really: FIVE MILLION VOTE SPREAD...GEEZZUZ!!] & other "tricks in the bag" he keeps pulling out I'm sure #Putin is delerious w/joy.➡️
@realDonaldTrump your charges on voter fraud have proven to be GROUNDLESS. By creating deeper & stronger anger within already divisive groups & issues, once again, you do traitorous disservice to this country.
It's time to move on You know this will NOT work in your favor.➡️

1/Just updated scientific brief on community use of cloth masks to control the spread of #COVID19 from @CDCgov: cdc.gov/coronavirus/20…
2/Important: "Masks also help reduce inhalation of these droplets by the wearer (“filtration for personal protection”)."
Previous data focused on reducing spread by an infected person (i.e., 'source control').

"Studies demonstrate that cloth mask materials can also reduce wearers’ exposure to infectious droplets through filtration, including filtration of fine droplets and particles less than 10 microns."
