BREAKING: In a shocking development Canada announces it will build a coalition of countries who share their values to build their economy and trade opportunities and will exclude the United States.
“If the U.S. no longer wants to lead, Canada will.”

Barbara McClintock's family had little money, so at first her interest in research was viewed with skepticism. She studied corn's hereditary characteristics and was awarded the 1983 medicine prize for her discovery of mobile genetic elements.

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.
What’s most clear to me tonight is that this is just the beginning, that Americans across this country, no matter their title or party, are ready to be heard.
I believe that history will show we rose to meet this moment.
It will show we did not let the chaos and division go unanswered.
It will show that when our president chose to spread lies and sow fear, we chose to come together, to work together, and to rise together.

Please re-Tweet to raise awareness: While #Alzheimers disease and other forms of #dementia impose an awful toll, we should focus as much as possible for as long as possible on how abilities change and how we can adapt in support.

Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you @POTUS, Congress, and the American people.

Getting diagnosed with #Alzheimers disease or another form of #dementia doesn’t mean you have lost your value or purpose. Show those around you and — more important — yourself all you still can do. Defy stigma. Find and share beauty. Live well.

BREAKING: Democrat Al Green just brought Articles of Impeachment against President Donald Trump over the threat of "ethnic cleansing in Gaza."
All is fair game after what Republicans did to Biden.
Green said: "The movement to impeach the president has begun. I rise to announce that I will bring Articles of Impeachment against the president for dastardly deeds proposed and dastardly deeds done."
