As a grief therapist, you already know this, but I thought J. S. Parks said it well. Maybe it will help someone else on here or even the person who reacted meanly and didn’t want to hear you.

🤦♀️ I’d laugh with the history teachers, but at some level it isn’t funny. This kind of stuff just boggles my mind. That people who say this are even holding office on the US — 😩

Only you would see this that way. And yet you’ve made it legal to run over protestors in the street too. How ironic. Our school board members should not be subjected to threats of violence.
This is Pastor Andre, Tania and their daughter Adele (1). Tania and Adele have safely made it to Italy. Andre is in Ukraine, leading about 40 church members to the Polish border under great difficulty. Latest update: Andre is 100km away from the Polish border. Please pray.

No one wants schools closed. We just want each school board to be able to set mask mandates according to the American Academy of Pediatrics.

What did you think people would infer here? What is the point you are making when you say that back during Jim Crow, black families were together and black families voted conservative…? Maybe you need to think this through a little more if the inference is not what you meant.

Free speech has not been an issue on Twitter. Free speech is about government not being allowed to interfere with public speaking. It was never meant to keep corporations from setting restrictions on their platforms.
@GovRonDeSantis
You’re losing it. The tech companies have stood in the gap to try to curb misinformation. Would not have been necessary if you had done your job better. I still can’t believe I voted for you in the last election. I won’t make that mistake again.

@TheRyanHamilton
Wrong. It has everything to do with the recent laws put into place by Republicans in several red states. Texas is one. D&Cs have been the standard of care in cases for years until just recently. Now mothers’ lives are at risk on top of everything else they’ve had to go through.
@GovRonDeSantis
What? That check list stopped me dead in my tracks. It states that we are teaching kids how to think rather than what to think. Really? Because the testing you’ve mandated has clearly taught children “what” to answer rather than how to think critically.
@RevDaniel
Not to take away from your point, but as a previous HS teacher, I can confirm that students started their clubs and then had to find teacher sponsors in order to be official and to hold meetings on campus. Teachers were not allowed to form or “recruit” students for ANY clubs.

He is limiting us because southern states, all with Republican governors, have been getting 70% of the monoclonal antibody treatment. He also committed to doing everything he can to get more. This again is your fault. Mask mandates and vaccines reduce the need for MAT.

Did you read that they need more citations to support this info that your sharing as truth? This is not verified. And in fact, do you know that viruses cause encephalitis? The measles virus causes encephalitis in about 1 in 1000 children who contract measles.
Everyone should be watching the
#Jan6thCommitteeHearings
.
Today, Cassidy Hutchinson, who worked for Ted Cruz, Steve Scalise and Mark Meadows while he was Trump’s White House Chief of Staff, is testifying. She’s definitely a Republican.
To suggest God has “staked everything on men” is implying that somehow the God of the universe, the God of all creation, somehow NEEDS men. Even IF he included women, this weakens God. This just doesn’t sound like the God of the Bible to me.
@ZOrtiz99
@krassenstein
Read it again, carefully. This letter has absolutely nothing to do with the claims people are making about it. The acting President of the United States (Trump) did NOT order the National Guard to provide security on Jan 6th. This is simple.
@GovRonDeSantis
It’s a right to work state, Governor. Employers don’t even have to provide a reason for letting an employee go. And you’ve supported this in the past.
@GovRonDeSantis
Still will not be voting for you. Prices had already come down quite a bit. You waited so this would happen closer to November. It is more about you than about helping your constituents.
@GovRonDeSantis
@GregAbbott_TX
Keep it up; you’re just furthering the divide in our country and are causing more civil unrest. Instead, why don’t you do your job for the state of Florida. Why don’t you watch over Floridians by encouraging those who are not vaccinated to get vaccinated?
@GovRonDeSantis
This is ridiculous. You are once again opting out and not doing your job. If you leave this up to the parents, the kids whose parents want them to mask will be bullied and teased by the other kids, or they will end up not wearing a mask once they get to the school.
@albertmohler
You think Trump supports the integrity of marriage? How many times has he been married? How does he refer to women in general? How many affairs has he had? The majority of the GOP supports Trump. How can you not see the contradiction here? Your argument is not Christian!
@GovRonDeSantis
You’ve done nothing but politicize Covid. The treatment offered is great, but it’s being paid for by the federal government, not you. And masks mandates and vaccines would have minimized the need for this treatment and the deaths that have already occurred.
@GovRonDeSantis
I understand that you don’t like being edited. However, your “extended narrative” didn’t change the majority of the info emphasized by 60 minutes, which is that you prioritized the wealthy over the disenfranchised. And you keep ignoring that.
Once again, spreading misinformation. This has to stop. Misinformation is responsible for killing people and for destroying families. And if we’re not careful, it will cost us our democracy. For the truth on Covid, follow

@EricTopol
Came across this while researching for book & it staggered me all over again. To blame Christians who were justly skeptical of vaccine for thousands of deaths & to show zero contrition for it today…it borders on unbelief. And then you see the eva leaders who cheered it…😡

Dr Hotez, I’m so sorry. Please know many of us (I truly believe it is most of us) are thankful for you, Dr. Fauci, and many other scientists who have worked so diligently during this pandemic. Thank you for all you do for us!

In this last shooting, some staff were armed. It didn’t work. Six people are still dead. This is not what your employers want. 7000 young people marched today. Their lives and the lives of their friends are being threatened. Listen!

Anyway you cut it, the baby had a seizure and had to be intubated, likely due to Covid (lack of oxygen). I’m really tired of hearing that children aren’t susceptible, so we don’t have to worry about them.
@GovRonDeSantis
Why do you think this is okay when you have not promoted vaccines or supported mask mandates? You’ve promoted and provided the most expensive treatment over other options. And if we follow the money, there’s a clear reason for this. The federal government pays Regeneron
@GovRonDeSantis
And by the way, I refused to go back into teaching high school after my kids were grown because of that testing. Instead I taught at the local community college where I saw the results of that testing.

From now on I personally believe all presidential candidates should be required to pass the same clearance needed to qualify for a security clearance. I also think they should be required to pass a mental health screening and the test immigrants have to pass to become a citizen.

Besides the fact that Corinthians is Paul not Jesus, consider rereading the account of the woman caught in adultery. Not only did all the men leave after Jesus challenged them about their sin, but he, without her asking for forgiveness, said, “‘Neither do I condemn you.’”

Give me a break. Nothing your new SG did Is responsible for the decrease in Covid cases. The cases started going down as soon as several school districts put mask mandates back in place. And cases are going down across much of the entire nation.

Cable subscribers should be able to opt out of FOX. I do realize not watching the show, if enough people did it, would also impact it, but opting out of FOX would be faster! Although we opted out of cable completely so there’s that too!

I live in Florida and I hope the polls are accurate, but people have short memories here, and they seem to be real happy with all the monoclonal antibody treatment centers he has set up around the state. Not sure why those are acceptable to them when vaccines are not.
@NancyMace
And what exactly are you doing for unity, Nancy? Is this unifying? Why is it okay for Reps to behave one way, but not for Dems? It’s time to stop this behavior and start working together or to get out of politics. The American people are tired (exhausted actually) of all of this.
I keep seeing posts on this that omit “shady.” Don’t omit it. Josh clearly used “shady” as a descriptor here: a “shady little girl in a mini skirt.” Let this sink in. Whether anecdotal or not, this is an accusation from a grown man in a leadership position against a child.

Freshman Comp. We sat near each other. He needed a typist, and I volunteered. We dated. When he took me home, he kissed me on the cheek and said goodnight at the door. 💗 Never did get paid for typing his papers. 39 years and two kids later, I’d do it all again.

Why would this make visitors to our state feel safer? And why are they a priority? Shouldn’t everyone feel safe? This is just one more instance of political maneuvering. I’m so tired of it.

The article doesn’t say anything about the issue being due to the vaccine mandate. Ted Cruz is the one who went there.
It's a failure of journalism if stories on the critical race theory "controversy" do not include the factual and contextual reporting that this is a well-planned Republican misinformation strategy and that nearly nothing being labeled critical race theory actually is CRT.

Because not enough people got vaccinated. Learn science. Viruses mutate. At the rate we’re going, we will soon have another variant that is even worse, and we will be right back where we started. Right now, people who are vaccinated are still avoiding hospitalization and death.
