Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride.

However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

The reality that masked men without proper identification are confronting and arresting and taking away people should be intolerable to anyone who calls themselves American.

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992.

Was there a breast cancer epidemic?!

NO.

Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976.

PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something.

This is also about autism.

250 years ago tonight: Paul Revere's ride, made famous by Longfellow in 1861 reminding us to fight for freedom.

LISTEN, my children, and you shall hear
Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere,
On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-five;
Hardly a man is now alive
Who remembers that famous day and year

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

My thread on today's hearing for Rümeysa Öztürk, now complete!

TLDR: The judge seemed inclined to order Öztürk transferred from Louisiana to Vermont so she could assist in her case. He sounded open to releasing her from ICE detention altogether but wanted a hearing with chance to enter evidence.
HAPPENING NOW: Rümeysa Öztürk (repped by ACLU) has a hearing before Vermont federal judge William K. Sessions III.

Öztürk is the Tufts PhD student snatched off the street by ICE and now facing deportation for cowriting a pro-Palestine op-ed in the student newspaper. 🧵
