On a mission to see all @vincentdonofrio movies in his filmography -- in order. I'd already seen so many, but "It Don’t Pay to Be an Honest Citizen" is the missing link. Where oh where?! Saw "Dying Young" again last night (which I have on VHS; yep, I collect them, too). #bigfan

In 2015, Houston officers stepped into Alan Pean's hospital room, closed the door and shot him through the chest. Join us today from 3-4 pm ET for a special @TwitterSpaces conversation with brothers @AlanCPean and @DrChristianPean hosted by KHN correspondent @SarahVarney4.

Trump mentions a vaccine from Johnson & Johnson, that he claims will be one of several coming "within the next few weeks" and says his timeline is "more accurate" than officials who say it will be longer.
J&J just suspended their vaccine trial last week, BTW. #DebateTonight
