Trump said "Democrats are able to kill the baby after birth." Beyond this being a truly dumb lie, here are facts. My baby was killed after birth because of gun violence. Republicans, by blocking gun violence prevention, apparently support killing babies after birth.

The front page of tomorrow's @dailytarheel – I shed many tears while typing up these heart-wrenching text messages sent and received by UNC students yesterday. Our campus was on lockdown for more than three hours. Beyond proud of this cover and the team behind it.

@jonkimball This is better than I could have ever imagined.

@LeahLitman @taylorswift13 Same concert, also Covid. Feel better soon!

My dad was one.

@dulcinema @JasonKander @dianakander Sounds trivial but having friends send meals really helped- it was one less thing to worry about, especially if fatigue is an issue. If it is, taking other chores off her plate is helpful- whether childcare or household stuff. Wishing your friend all the best!!

@JasonKander @dianakander Jason. My dearest lifelong friend is beginning radiation after breast cancer surgery. From your supporter's perspective, any advice RE how I might best help her through this?

It’s fantastic that @DianaKander has completed her radiation treatments. However, I can’t say I’m excited about the overnight thermostat timer returning to the broil setting.

Who wore it better?

@DanaHoule Thank you! Somehow I never knew that.

@DanaHoule Honest question: what are the dues you refer to?

We shld remember that Trump is a pathological liar. But at a minimum we need some explanation of what happened here or confirmation that there's no basis to this claim.

Let’s go!

@kdurquiza @MarkedByCovid @evansinmiddle @nbcsnl I will never forget the nurse who helped my scared and isolated dad call me hours before he died of Covid in January 2021. Because of that nurse’s kindness the last words my dad said to me were “I love you.”

@evansinmiddle @nbcsnl To all the nurses that held their hands, including the nurse who held my fathers, thank you.

Khaki ❤️

hard to believe it’s almost time to unpack steve kornacki again. feels like just yesterday we were dragging him up to the attic

@votefwd almost ready to go to post office #bigsend

@JillEBean10 @JoyceWhiteVance Hi Jill. Can you share those? Would love to write w others in this home stretch!

1/ It's 23 days until the midterms. Postcard writing is effective at turning out the vote. Postcards to Voters is a group that's effective & easy to get involved with. I signed up this morning by texting “join” to 484-275-2229. Abby, the address bot, has me ready to write.

@Deeunichic71 @Saikmedi Thank you. I’m sorry for what you’re dealing w as well. Sending peace and strength.

@Bob_Wachter @DrLeanaWen What I struggle with is saying there are no bad decisions on masking ignores the fact that an individual choosing not to mask can negatively impact others, which seems by definition a bad decision.

A legitimately tough call — if I had school kids, I’d keep masks on until case rates were lower, but @DrLeanaWen’s reasoning is sound & I totally respect this call. I agree there are no wrong decisions on masking now — it’s about how one weights risks, incl. some uncertain ones.

We need more of this.

@Mominsweats Or if a twice impeached former GOP president paid.

If a GOP congress member paid for your abortion, please speak.
