Because we are not a state:
DC was shorted $750 million in COVID aid
DC had to get extra vaccine from MD & VA when we were given too few doses for our health workers
DC couldn’t deploy our own National Guard to restore order outside a House we can’t yet call home

90 seconds of shooting altered history and changed forever our relationship with Croke Park.
14 lives were lost and countless were never the same again.
This was Bloody Sunday.

Happy birthday to Marie Sklodowska-Curie, born #OTD in 1867 in Warsaw, Poland. A few of her many accomplishments? In 1903, she became the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, for the discovery of radium & polonium. In 1911 she won another for producing radium as a pure metal.

Happy #Halloween! We have skeletal national voting rights, a ghost of a chance at statehood & we've been treated to this trick since 1801. Boo! It's a grave yardstick for our national democracy to be measured by. We won't settle for Fun Size voting rights, only Full Size will do!

This is the time of year to recognise Dubliner, Bram Stoker’s achievement in creating that enduring character, prince of the horror film genre, Dracula. #Halloween.
Dracula is synonymous with Halloween and its author, Bram Stoker, is undoubtedly one of Ireland’s most celebrated writers. With an estimated 43 sequels, remakes and adaptations, few authors have had as much impact on one particular genre. @bramstokerdub

America needs to place ads across all of Central America looking for the parents who were deported while their kids were separated here. We need to go door to door down there looking. We owe it to these kids and their parents to do everything we can.
