Lots of people asking why isn't my state issuing COVID vaccine executive orders?

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery.
America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.
Watch and share his message.

A State Department employee shared with PBS News an image from inside the department. The image includes a piece of paper taped to a mirror with the words, "Colleagues, if you remain: RESIST FASCISM. Remember the oath you vowed to uphold."

Hundreds of households celebrated Christmas in June for a little girl with cancer who might not make it to December.
In the thick heat and humidity, neighbors dressed in holiday apparel gathered to help one family find happiness in the face of tragedy.

Hundreds of neighbors rally to give a 9-year-old with cancer one last Christmas
The days leading up to the Saturday night event were hot and humid but that didn’t stop the community from decorating miles of houses for Kasey Zachmann.

🔸~1 in 502 are reasonably infectious

At the start of COVID, we all learned how to beat airborne viruses like the flu: by wearing masks and staying home when we are sick. It's a real shame we haven't translated those important lessons into long-term behavioral change.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.
This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
