Death toll from September 11th, 3,103 people in this country died yesterday. The gut punch comes when you realize that Many Americans have almost gotten used to Reading Numbers like that. Actually, four days in the past week have ranked among the deadliest days in this countrys history, ever. The pearl harbor attacks that killed 2,400 people will forever be remembered and described as a day that will live in infamy, as proclaimed by fdr, and in the aftermath of September 11th, president george w. Bush asked for prayers for all of those who grieve for the children whose worlds were shattered that day. Yet today, 3,000 families wake up wondering what life looks like now, today, without their loved one beside them. And we wait for the president or really anyone to acknowledge the somber occasion in any way. No reference to the death toll or to the virus, for that matter, on Donald Trumps twitter field. Instead, tweet after tweet after tweet about the election he lost in the most secure el
Is there any precedent for these unpresident ial acts . Almost 74 million votes. I have a great panel of historians to discuss that, and the legacy of trumps term in office.

And yet its obvious that the country remains deeply divided. Aft

Front Line Health Care workers getting that first dose of the Pfizer Vaccine, the very first was a Critical Care nurse right here in new york city, sandra lindsey. I feel hopeful today, relieved.

The nations top Infectious Disease expert says we have to remain vigilant. The Vaccine Rights now is not a substitute for the normal Standard Public Health measures of wearing a mask, keeping your distance, avoiding congregant crowded sections particularly indoors.

As this, the most secure election in the history of this country by chris krebs, lifelong republican charged with securing the vote. The Washington Post reporting over the weekend only 27 republicans have acknowledged the fact of the Election Result, indisputed fact. Post writes that the results of the survey demonstrate the fear most republicans have of the outgoing president and his grip on the party, despite his new status as just the third elected president to lose reelection in the past 80 years. More than 70 of republican lawmakers did not acknowledge the post questions as of friday evening. Thats about 220 republicans in all. The 220 elected officials will have blood on their hands if any harm comes to the local and statewide Office Holders now receiving Death Threats from Trump Supporters who believe Donald Trumps lies. Two of the gop officials under the most brutal assault by trump and his voters, georgia Secretary Of State, brad raffensperger, and Georgia Election official Ga
