“Mexico's shelters are holding as much as six times their capacity, makeshift camps continue to pop up all over, intense summer heat is coming — and migrants hoping to enter the U.S. keep arriving from points south.”

Thursday Justice recap:

The boots of the insurrection are finding out.
It’s time for the suits.

What is going on at the CDC? 😡
Welp—Remember how @CDCgov claimed there was no “outbreak” at their CDC conference 3 weeks ago? ➡️Now we learn 181 cases of #COVID19 arose of 1800+ CDC staffers/guests…. So basically 1 in 10 folks at a single CDC conference caught COVID. Yet @CDCDirector Walensky dismantles reporting and they gaslight us it was nothing. #CovidIsNotOver

“Among the 181 who were sickened at the CDC conference, the median age was 38, nearly all were younger than 65 and two-thirds were women, Nordlund said. No severe illnesses were reported.”
Yeah. Follow up in 6 months & see how many have long covid. How many lose their jobs.
Here's a link in case of paywall. Remember, this was shrugged off when first reported. Now it comes out that 181 people, 1 in 10 attendees, were infected. 70% were unmasked.

Just 48 hours alive as I type this. 15 hours since leaving post natal care & we're now in paediatric care awaiting expert opinion on what the cause of this sudden onset of conjunctivitis is in my baby. The doctor in A&E said that COVID doesn't affect babies/ cause conjunctivitis.

Lol, having spent 12 hours waiting for things to kick in, haven't seen a single mask worn on staff, patient/visitor. Grateful I was placed by windows (that barely open) in shared room. Placing alot of faith in my HEPA filter/mask now that pt w/ chesty cough is in bed next to me.
I have yet to receive a clear reply to a very basic question regarding what infection control measures are in place to protect newborn babies in UHG @saoltagroup @HSELive. I would expect staff to wear PPE around infants but the evasive response so far leads me to think otherwise?

📍Holy crap—51 elite cyclists have dropped out of the major @giroditalia 🚵♀️tournament so far, including **3 top race contenders**, amid an outbreak of #COVID19 and variety of illnesses. Now only 71% racers remaining. ➡️more cyclists have dropped out this tournament than even in 2020 amid Italy🇮🇹’s first COVID wave. Let that sink in. But hey, pAnDeMiC-iS-OvER??? #COVIDisNotOver.

I’ve spent the past four years studying the history of the Republican Party and what makes movements succeed and fail. Now it’s time to get to work and end the influence of the gun lobby on American politics. One day school shootings will be history — Not headlines.

The debt ceiling doesn’t reduce spending or increase revenue. In fact, Congress has raised or changed the debt ceiling *78 times* since 1960—with no meaningful change to our budget decisions.
It serves no purpose other than driving brinkmanship. Congress should abolish it.

Fam, I talk with my mom most mornings during my drive. This morning when we were chatting, I told her about Aderrien Murry from Mississippi who was only 11 and shot in the chest by a cop at the door.
MOM: Oh yes, I heard about that poor boy. He was shot when he came to pick up his siblings and rang the doorbell at the wrong house.
ME: No mom, that’s Ralph Yarl. The Mississippi boy was shot in the chest at his own house by a cop after instructing everyone to come outside.
MOM: Oh no, that’s so terrible.
ME: Mom, you know why you got them mixed up? Because this is happening too damn often.
MOM: Yes it is.
ME: Silence
MOM: Sigh
We didn’t even get into the story of the Mississippi teen who was shot & killed by a former cop as he fled his girlfriend's house.

Quick reminder that Democrats could have raised the debt ceiling in the lame duck through reconciliation, but @DickDurbin killed the idea.
