I remember this incident vividly. So many white people posted that this was somehow going to "change things" re US policing. Other people knew it would not. I'm so sorry Martin was so badly hurt.

The woman who shouted "people will die" at Joni Ernst, India May, is a nurse and a librarian who first got involved in politics by going to a town hall about bills aiming to defund libraries. Now she's running for state house. eu.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/p...

This not only eliminates hope for a vaccine going forward, but also undoes all the progress that has been made so far. The only explanation for these insane policy shifts is that they wrongly view HIV as a disease that only affects gay people and Africans, and want them to die.

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Just a friendly reminder that our current Covid vaccines do not meaningfully prevent infection or transmission of Covid. Misleading the public about this fact led to massive distrust about vaccines and record vaccine hesitancy. It's SO crucial to make ppl aware of this fact to fight vax hesitancy

"LGBTQ graduate majors"?! Because when you're in the process of attacking your dissidents, why not also kickstart a full-on assault on universities mixed in with an illogical & insane dose of homophobia.

🚨 ICE agents in masks and no uniforms abducting people from a Phoenix immigration court - no ID, no explanation, no due process. This is not law enforcement. This is authoritarianism. Demand accountability. Stay loud. Stay informed. Stay safe.

Rahm Emanuel better figure out how to win w/out the Black vote if he’s going to keep using the word “woke” as a weapon against Dems. That goes for any candidate parroting GOP lines & taking cues from Ron DeSantis. “Woke” is a word rooted in the Black community—it’s not yours to twist into a slur.

When Americans raised concerns about RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine views, he said he was "not gonna take away vaccines from anybody." But now he's taking them away from millions of mommas and babies. Vaccine recommendations should be based on science, not RFK Jr.'s political agenda.

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear: The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here. Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead. This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

Trump’s hateful comments on this Memorial Day underscores how disgraceful and intolerable this malignant man is and will always be. As much as we express gratitude for the men & women who sacrificed their lives, he will forever be a heinous stain on our beloved country.

George Floyd was murdered on this day five years ago. Despite massive protests over racial injustice, police killings are sadly on the rise. Instead of pouring more funds into our brutal system of policing, let's invest in communities. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/24/u...

There’s a large Covid wave in Asia that’s caused a large uptick in hospitalizations. It’s a warning for those of us on the other side of the world. We need to push for more transparency in COVID reporting. Access to tests and vaccines. It’s not over, and people need the info to protect themselves

You're seeing America kamikaze itself into a brick wall. It didn't have to be this way. But greed and racism, our two sins, will be our downfall. Too many people still with their hands in the sand.

My latest article is about misogyny & misogynoir. Black women are three times more likely to die in pregnancy. Black babies have the highest infant mortality. The government looking to cut Medicaid, food assistance & other critical support is forcing Adriana Smith to be an incubator for a fetus.

A person answered at Juan Ciscomani's office. They said "I'll log your disappointment." They said more stringent eligibility requirements protect the most vulnerable. This is the most egregious LIE! More roadblocks HURT the MOST vulnerable. I said, don't log my disappointment. Log my OUTRAGE! 🤬
