Prince Harry has donated $1.5M from proceeds of #Spare to Sentebale, a charity he co-founded with Prince Seeiso of Lesotho in 2006 in Diana's honor. Sentebale addresses health needs of vulnerable youth in South Africa, Lesotho, Botswana and Malawi with strong focus on HIV/AIDS.
Prince Harry is also donating £300,000 to the UK charity WellChild, which he has supported for 15 years. WellChild allows children with complex health needs to be careful for at home instead of hospital.
You can read more about both @Sentebale and @WellChild on their websites. Harry was due to attend the WellChild Awards in the UK when Queen Elizabeth died in September.
These are just two of the charities Prince Harry has already designated to which proceeds of #Spare will go. Harry and Meghan also have their charity, Archwell Foundation, which funds community relief centers, among other endeavors, including programs that support Black women.
Prince Harry & Meghan being happy and doing good in the world despite the haters and racists.
#Spare
Did a deep dive into Archwell Foundation. Since Prince Harry and Meghan founded the organization in 2020 they have done a massive amount of philanthropic work which has included funding numerous programs for women and children and for Ukrainian, Afghan and Haitian refugees.

My latest on McCarthy's rocky start to the 118th Congress and his history of anti-abortion, anti-healthcare, misogynist and anti-LGBTQ stances and what it means going forward.

The McCarthy Era begins in Congress epgn.com/2023/01/12/the…
"McCarthy’s ascendancy is bad news for women and LGBTQ people and signals that the next two years will see no passage of bills in support of either group and likely passage of bills that will negatively impact them."
epgn.com/2023/01/12/the…
"In his acceptance speech, McCarthy asserted, 'We believe government should be there to help you, not go after you. We’re gonna pass bills to fix the nation’s challenges from wide open southern borders to America-last energy policies to woke indoctrination in our schools.'”

A small number of classified documents from Biden’s time as VP discovered in private office in Washington DC, according to DOJ. The documents were turned over within hours of discovery in a Think Tank in DC where Biden worked.

“The discovery of these documents was made by the President’s attorneys,” Sauber added. “The documents were not the subject of any previous request or inquiry by the Archives."

I'm on deadline. Instead of working I'm sobbing & can't stop. Every Friday night into Saturday morning is a reprise of The Wife dying, just weeks ago. The enormity of my loss is overwhelming. I can't see an end to the depth/breadth of my grief. It's unbearable and untenable.
1/🧵
I was watching the game when Damar Hamlin collapsed and it set loose all these traumatic memories. EMTs worked on The Wife for 45mins. It was brutal. They were homophobic. It was in our bedroom. It was an extra layer of trauma. A half dozen men in our bedroom touching her.
2/🧵
Then the police came. And they were homophobic. And then they left and it was just me and The Wife. I fell asleep holding her hand as I had been when she died. I had to wait till sundown for her to be bathed and the prayers said over her. They took her away later that night.

You are really screwed in this country if you are disabled and you need photo ID. You have to have ID to get ID. It's wild.
So I really must have a photo ID now to deal with some serious issues related to The Wife's passing. I am not physically able to go to the DMV. You can't get a new passport if your old one is expired. You have to have a photo ID to get a photo ID or to get a Social Security card.
I spent 75 minutes in the phone queue to talk to a person at Social Security. She was very nice and walked me through what I needed to do. Then we hit the photo ID part and she said I couldn't do it online and told me all the forms of ID that were accepted. I have none.
