“A battered nation haunted by sickness, death and division is heading into an epic week in which constitutional principles will triumph over lies and insurrection with the transfer of power from one president to the next.”

cnn.com/2021/01/18/pol…
“President-elect Joe Biden's shouldering of the presidency on Wednesday will end twice-impeached Donald Trump's four-year assault on truth and tranquility and an administration awash in corruption that tested US democracy to the limit.”
“After four years in which Trump tore at America's racial wounds as a tool of power, there will, however, be a sense of history as CA Sen. Kamala Harris becomes the first female, Black & South Asian vice president sworn into office by Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor.”
“A new CNN poll released Sunday revealed the poisoned legacy Trump will leave behind. Only 19% of Republicans believe Biden was legitimately elected following weeks of lies perpetrated by the commander-in-chief and his conservative propagandists that the election was stolen.”

Thread. My life in pictures. Four years of this. Over. Thank the Goddess. Marching for immigrant rights after the hateful Muslim ban, marching for freedom of the press. Marching against the hateful T***p regime. 2017 was an activism year that didn’t stop. 1/ ImageImageImage
Every January, a Women’s March. Not this year! 2/ ImageImageImageImage
Marched to see his taxes. Marched against his 1.5 trillion dollar tax scam, rammed through by #MoscowMitch in the middle of the night. 3/ ImageImageImage

May her memory be a blessing. Image

.@JoeBiden is speaking now in Philadelphia to those Senate Republicans who know what the right thing to do is about appointing a Supreme Court justice. Biden says Trump is trying to strip away healthcare with the ACA case before SCOTUS. People are choosing their future right now.
“If I win the election, I should be the one who names a replacement for Justice Ginsburg!” “Healthcare in our country hangs in the balance” in a pandemic where 6 million people who have #coronavirus will all have pre-existing conditions.
Biden is asking a few Republicans to follow their conscience (he still believes a few Republican senators have a conscience?) “Let the people speak.” “We can’t continue to live with scrambled norms.” Biden says the final wish of Ruth Bader Ginsburg should be honored by the Senate

U.S. Covid-19 death toll surpasses 200,000
A prediction made in March — unfathomable at the time — has come to pass. Dr. Birx made it. What happened to the lady of the scarves? New predictions are for 415,000 dead by January. Because Trump. nbcnews.com/health/health-…
Dr. E. Wesley Ely, a professor of medicine and critical care at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee, called the 200,000 deaths a "benchmark of sadness."
"This is 200,000 people who didn't think they were going to die this year," Ely said.
“Covid-19 has killed people of all ages, all races and all political affiliations. They include a veteran emergency medical technician with the New York Fire Department. A pastor in Texas. A nurse in South Carolina. Children who have succumbed to a rare inflammatory complication”
