#Newbornscreening saved her life. She was critically ill due to #Galactosemia & runs varsity XC now. This is only because of the test @NBS_Ontario @ScreenBabies

Now is the time for all Americans to speak up when history is being erased, books are being banned, and diversity is being attacked.

I'm glad that my Administration’s infrastructure investments are so popular that even Speaker McCarthy is trying to take credit for them, despite voting against them. That’s alright. I’ll see him at the next groundbreaking.

Everyone retweet this and expose @EliseStefanik for the fraud she is. She’s bragging about money from a bill she voted against. The GOP doesn’t care about people. They care about power. And they know people love Biden’s bill. Share far and wide!! politico.com/minutes/congres…

shame on @PPSConnect for cutting positions of high school choir director to 1/2 without any regard to the impact on the student body. Why don’t you start cutting salaries of administrators instead of cutting teachers that have a direct positive impact on students. Shame!

Hey @Ryanair, my parents who are in their 70s and 80s, had accidentally downloaded the return flight boarding card instead of the outgoing ones and you charged them £110 to print them at the airport. £110 for 2 pieces of paper which took 1 minute. Shame on you – at La Sauvetat-du-Dropt, France

In just hours, they were tried, convicted, and beheaded for treason. Brother and sister Hans and Sophie Scholl and their friend Christoph Probst were members of the “White Rose" resistance group. They spoke up when so many other Germans remained silent. #InternationalYouthDay

My name is Francine Finkielsztaj. I was born in Paris on July 28th, 1941. In July 1943, I was deported to Auschwitz and separated from my parents. My last memory is being carried into a shower room. Then the room started to fill with gas. Remember us, please.

I firmly condemn the Russian strikes on Ukrainian grain storage and export infrastructure. As Russia continues its ruthless war, we continue to support Ukraine.   Today we paid another €1.5 billion, to help keep the state running and repair infrastructure.   More will come.

1/Please share this thread on behalf of my physician colleague, Eunice Stallman, who is facing the nightmare of her 9mo daughter, Zoey, being diagnosed with brain cancer several weeks ago. @BlueCrossIdaho has added to their anguish by obstructing access to vital treatment.

WHOA. Morgan Stanley, one of the largest banks in the US, now credits BIDENOMICS for producing an “unexpected surge” in our economy & says this Bidenomics is “driving a boom in large-scale infrastructure.” Bidenomics is working. We must shout this from the rooftops.

Holy shit. The outrage & anger we see from VP Kamala Harris right here over Florida wanting people to believe that slavery BENEFITED enslaved people is what all of us should be feeling. This is the Kamala Harris we must see more of. So good.

I know that a lot of you are frustrated with some of the Supreme Court's recent decisions. I am, too.    But just being disappointed isn’t going to get us anywhere. We’ve got to remember that our elections — from the White House to the local courthouse — play a critical role in what becomes law.

Bavovnyatko doesn’t really count as a dog OR cat of war, so here’s a cute cat I saw while walking around in Kharkiv. It was meowing at passersby, I think because it wanted to be fed.
