Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. It's a topic that I think is really important and is my main research agenda. I even got to give a TEDx talk last week on it. Some key facts: ⤵️

Re-post one of your best tweets. No screenshots. I'll go first. --- In the first part of this paper, I use a rigorous research design to estimate the causal effect of X on Y. I then turn to testing mechanisms by over-interpreting a bunch of correlations in the data.

We’re going to hear lots of stories about which people, policies and rhetoric are to blame for the Democrats’ defeat. Some of those stories may even be true! But an underrated factor is that 2024 was an absolutely horrendous year for incumbents around the world 👇
