America needs President Biden’s American Rescue Plan. My Republican colleagues can either choose to work with Democrats or they can choose to sit on the sidelines and pout. I hope they will join us.

@SenatorDurbin
The American Rescue Plan includes direct payments to Americans. It includes funding for vaccine distribution, rental & mortgage & health insurance assistance for struggling families, and aid for small businesses.

Enough with the delays. The American people need relief.

The chart below summarizes the two vaccines currently administered in Arlington. Both Pfizer and Moderna are considered “reactogenic” in that they stimulate a strong immune response with unpleasant but temporary side effects. Moderna, despite being less efficacious (94.1% vs. 95% for Pfizer), has 3x more vaccine than Pfizer (100 micrograms vs 30 micrograms for Pfizer), which may contribute to more side effects observed.

518,000 Americans are dead from this pandemic, struggling families desperately need help – and every single Senate Republican just tried to stop the COVID-19 relief bill. They should be ashamed.

Michelle Obama: "Make no mistake — the idea that we cannot both hold secure elections and ensure that every eligible voter can make their voices heard is a false choice. It’s based on lies and it flies in the face of our history. It is sad. It is infuriating."

We must build a transportation system that can empower future generations.

But we've also got to fix what we have now: the broken roads, the buckling sidewalks, and the underfunded transit that holds us back.

A quick test of my steering, and things are looking good as I get ready to roll. My team and I are keen to get moving. One step at a time.

Timothy Snyder (@TimothyDSnyder) calls it sadopopulism and explains the formula:

🔹Identify an "enemy" (homeless migrants, Democrats, etc.)
🔹Enact policies that create pain
🔹Blame the pain on the "enemies"
🔹Present yourself as the strongmen who can fight the "enemies."

You can't be a white grievance party if your constituents are not grieving.

Make them suffer, then blame people who are not white.

People misunderstood this comment, so I'll add that this comes from Timothy Snyder, who explained one difference between 20th-century fascists and 21st-century fascists.

20th-century fascists did not deliberately hurt their own constituents. They did not enact laws and policies that hurt loyal members of their own party.

21st-century fascists deliberately enact policies that hurt their own constituents.

"But Germans lost the war and Germans suffered," is not the same 🤦?♀️

Snyder explains it this way: Fascists like Hitler . . .

Teri Kanefield
@Teri_Kanefield
. . . and Mussolini were interested in power. Modern fascists want power and wealth. They want power and they want to be billionaires.

The only way to do that is to enact policies that hurt their own constituents.

"The Germans lost the war and Germans suffered" isn't the same.
