Marvin Hagler and Tommy Hearns fought what many consider to be the greatest round in boxing history in this 1985 bout. Check it out: at 0:30 left, one announcer exclaims “this is still the first round!” And: “there’s no boxing at all, just fighting here.” https://t.co/lCHiWpIibz — PolitiTweet.org

“If they cut my bald head open, they will find one big boxing glove. That’s all I am. I live it.” RIP, “Marvelous” Marvin Hagler. The boxing great was a fierce competitor (and I always thought he was robber in the infamous 1987 matchup against Leonard).  https://t.co/GyPSXt6Hm5 — PolitiTweet.org

@Judge_Leben @FCC Indeed. Obviously, there were bigger issues stemming from the pandemic, but I’ll always attach a measure of melancholy to those lost months of in-person interaction. What makes the @FCC (as most workplaces) special is its people, and it just wasn’t the same on and after March 13. — PolitiTweet.org

A year ago today, we made the decision to shift the @FCC to telework starting the next day (March 13). I had no idea March 12, 2020 would be my last full day in the office and that I'd never again see all my co-workers in person. An unfortunate milestone in #COVID19's disruption. — PolitiTweet.org

This story, and the #mentalhealth challenges many have endured since American society was fundamentally disrupted by #COVID19 almost one year ago, underscore the importance of the National #SuicidePrevention Lifeline. If you’re struggling, call 1-@800273TALK. You are not alone. — PolitiTweet.org

An @FCC initiative I'm very proud of was the designation of 988 as a 3-digit number for #suicideprevention and #mentalhealth. 988 will go fully live in July 2022. Here's hoping it, like Officer Briggs, will be a life-saver for those who are struggling. 8/8 https://t.co/VDzcujYAvB https://t.co/PwR9xzjqrR — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Berthia wasn't the only one Briggs saved. In fact, he's "credited with talking more than 200 people out of jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge, one of the world’s most prominent suicide locations ... during the 18 years he patrolled the bridge." 7/8 https://t.co/FZ1mR3P8Bo — PolitiTweet.org

Officer Briggs "reassured [Berthia] that it was OK to talk about" the event. In fact, the officer himself understood the difficulty, having dealt with his own struggles. "I've found that out with my own depression and things that I kept bottled up for decades." 6/8 — PolitiTweet.org

Officer Briggs took Berthia to a hospital. They didn't see each other for years. 8 years later, Berthia's mother wrote to Briggs, and the two met again: "it was just like two old friends. ... That was the first time I was able to talk about everything that happened that day." 5/8 — PolitiTweet.org

Berthia stepped over the railing and turned around. He said that at the time, he "just felt like a failure. All I gotta do is lean back and everything is done. I'm free of all this pain." That's when @CHP_HQ Officer Kevin Briggs came on the scene and started talking to him. 3/8 — PolitiTweet.org
