I’m going to show you some before/after pictures of what your lungs and heart look like from covid thanks to the innovative work being done by @drwilliamli and @Survivor_Corps.

I think it will help you, especially the deniers, to have a visual of the actual damage covid does.
The left is a picture of a normal, healthy, heart. The right is picture is what happens to the blood vessels from #COVIDー19. In simple terms, the splintering of the blood vessels in the right picture is what makes oxygenation so difficult. Ok...read on for pictures of lungs.
The photo on the left are healthy lungs. You can see all the colorful blood vessels. The center pic is actually *my* lungs. As a long hauler, I have less blood vessels than pre-covid. We don’t know if they will come back. The right are lungs of someone who passed away from covid.
We are still in the middle of this pandemic. And until Biden takes office and puts forth a National program to get it under control and get everyone vaccinated, please do your best not to get this illness or transmit this illness. #Covid19

1/ Last night, a reporter broke some information slightly incorrectly: they said military spending was in the COVID bill instead of the consolidated spending bill that contained it. As a result, I conveyed that part incorrectly. I’m sorry for that. But the larger points stand:
2/ The consolidated spending bill was all part of the same negotiations as the COVID relief bill. And the “relief” in that bill is entirely inadequate. $600 per person in a check. $25B in emergency rent relief. $300/week extended unemployment benefits. It’s nowhere near enough.
3/ Some Democrats are making a big deal about a 15% expansion of SNAP benefits. Current beneficiaries of SNAP receive on average $1.39 per meal. The expansion gets them to $1.59 per meal. And they are calling that a win?! C’mon.

How much work we all put in in the next 50 days will shape our country for the next 50 years.

Joe Biden wants to make your life better. Trump wants to make his own life better.

on #WomensEqualityDay, I'd like to remind you all the ways Trump has failed women and made life more dangerous for us and how Biden will be a champion for us.

A THREAD
Trump has tried to rip away health care benefits & protections for millions of women. In
the middle of a pandemic, Trump is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to strike down Obamacare,
which would allow insurers to deny women coverage because of pregnancy or pre-existing
conditions.
Trump rolled back protections from discrimination/harassment in the workplace. He revoked the Obama-Biden Fair Pay and Safe Workplaces executive order,
which required that federal contractors comply w/ labor, wage an hour, family & medical
leave, safety & health, and civil rights

A thread of all the things the Democratic Party has done to make the world a better place.

Let’s start here: 1920
19TH AMENDMENT: WOMEN'S SUFFRAGE
Under the leadership of Democratic President Woodrow Wilson, the U.S. Constitution was amended to grant women the right to vote.
1916 Woodrow Wilson (D) signs law establishing the National Park Service. #DemocratsHelpPeople
1933-1939 The New Deal. Franklin Roosevelt (D) instituted a series of economic & employment programs which got us out of the Great Depression. The New Deal included the Social Security Act, ensuring Americans could retire w/ dignity & peace of mind. #DemocratsHelpPeople
