These crimes are incredibly common in America, made easier by access to guns.
I did an investigation into these murder-suicides and their connection to mass shootings in America for @damemagazine.

HUGE.
#Biden & #Bernie continue to plummet. I wrote last month that #Buttigieg was the natural inheritor of voters divesting of Biden. #Warren is the natural inheritor of the left vote. #Harris, still the most charismatic candidate, has now tripled her Iowa standing since June.
This is the Democratic field. The debates both winnowed the field and reshuffled the deck. Despite massive help from MSM that included two full hours on Chris Cuomo in prime time, much spent attacking Harris and progressives, Biden fails to move his campaign forward.
Sanders has released a couple of videos vomosring himself to FDR, who was president when Sanders was born in 1941. Both Biden and Bernie focusing on the past while Harris and Warren roll out forward-thinking policy almost daily.

This is why the polls are shaking out as they are.

A year ago today The Wife was in a bad car accident driving home from teaching, her car totalled. Bruised spleen, bruised thyroid, cracked ribs, facial injuries.I had to track her down like a news story, calling police in NJ searching for an accident when she didn't come home.
1/
Using my reporter skills to find my wife when I knew something was wrong, but not how bad, was terrifying. I had to be professional, calling dispatchers and talking to police.
Folks on here were so supportive, helping me stay calm. My bestie came to be with me while I waited.
2/
I am so grateful, a year later, that she recovered, that compared to what her car looked like, she had relatively minor injuries, most of all, that she is still here, that we are sharing our 20th year together. 💜🌿

My #ThursdayMotivation: gratitude.

#MeganRapinoe said to Trump last night on @AC360:
‘Your message is excluding people. You’re excluding me. You’re excluding people that look like me. You’re excluding people of color. You’re excluding, you know, Americans that maybe support you.”

#MeganRapinoe: "I think that this country was founded on a lot of great ideas but it was also founded on slavery...we just need to be really honest about that & be really open in talking about that so we can reconcile that...and make this country better for everyone."

1. Let me drop my views about #Suicide.
Personally, I feel hurt whenever I hear or read about it. What comes to my heart is that "something is not right somewhere". And that "something need to be done". However, I'm sure the victim can overcome it. #Suicide
2. But what exactly is #Suicide? What is it all about? "Suicide simply means taking one's life intentionally." Of course, there are factors that leads to it. Such as depression, disappointments, sickness, loss of job, hopelessness and some related factors. #Suicide
3. There are other psychological factors too that can lead to #Suicide. But I have to say this, no matter the factor in which one is being entangled with, such can surly overcome. Taking one's life shouldn't be an option. #Suicide

Over the past 2 days, hundreds of doctors have shared heartbreaking accounts of how #gunviolence is a #publichealth issue. These are the stories of #docs4gunsense ... May their words make a difference.

The result of a bullet ricocheting inside the skull and destroying the brain on CT scan. The worst trauma I have seen. GUNS ARE A PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE – Gen Geller MD, NY #docs4gunsense @drgenngeller
The damage a bullet does to a 1 year old brain as it ricochets back and for. The guilt the family feels. The sadness we all feel.
