Kamala Harris: "I firmly and deeply believe that access to healthcare is a right and should be a right and not just a privilege of those who can afford it ... it's about the dignity of people and about the importance of doing what we can as leaders to alleviate suffering." pic.twitter.com/wRBEX4CjXN

Harris takes a tearful question from a woman whose mother recently died in part because she was an undocumented immigrant and as a result couldn't get the healthcare she needed. She responds with empathy and by explaining her immigration plan in detail. pic.twitter.com/69hDy39Sqi

Obama on the campaign trail --
Obama: You’re thinking about sitting out or supporting somebody who has a history of denigrating you, because you think that’s a sign of strength, because that’s what being a man is? Putting women down? That’s not acceptable pic.twitter.com/KVFiCxDLft

Obama’s riff on Trump and health care tonight:

“His running-mate had the nerve to say Donald Trump salvaged the Affordable Care Act.
“I… I mean…
“Donald Trump spent his entire presidency trying to tear it down, and by the way, he couldn’t even do that right.” pic.twitter.com/7KXRZLyjgN
Obama: Constant attempts to sell you stuff. Who does that? Selling you gold sneakers and $100,000 watch and most recently, a trump bible. You know, he wants you to buy the word of god, Donald Trump edition. Got his name right there next to Matthew and Luke. pic.twitter.com/JUzkTQikU3

Only rarely are individuals summoned for acts of national rescue, but in July, Vice President @KamalaHarris received one of those calls. With President Joe Biden’s decision to end his reelection campaign, the world looked to Harris with hopes and doubts. https://t.co/NtOIMM2L1R pic.twitter.com/4u1mbmDJ6i

Small acts of kindness (Happy Friday!) --
We’re a three man crew now. My coworker, David, rescuing a cat who took shelter under our car from Hurricane Milton. I’m glad someone walking by told us they heard meowing. pic.twitter.com/9nRFM4PqPf

Thank you for the cat rescue! Any positive animal stories after natural disasters are welcome! I have seen too many stories of people leaving animals behind, roped or caged with no chance of fleeing, and I want to do serious physical damage to anyone who would do such a thing! This morning, I saw footage of a half-destroyed home (and I hope the human creatures are OK) with a large aquarium against one wall. It has debris in it and several small fish swimming. I have no idea if any fish were injured or killed. But, I can't get past a feeling that, if you had time to flee, then EVERY living creature for which you have taken on responsibility should be top of the list of what you take as you go. If you created that tiny zoo in your home, but treat it like a lava lamp to simply enjoy for your calm, I wanna have a word! In case you are wondering, I don't like big zoos either...animals are not our entertainment. They are alive and worthy of our respect and caring...I don't believe any zoo can meet that standard no matter how they try! Yah, I'm a bleeding heart for anything that has a bleeding heart! 🥰
