The irony: Black women are always expected to save the world, often by the same people who turned their backs on them. This right here is grace. It should never be confused with obligation. IJS

Holding this maternal healthcare event alongside Harris was a smart move by El-Sayed, and a necessary one.

He needs to strengthen Black support in Michigan.

The divisions of the 2024 uncommitted movement were real, and Black voters haven’t forgotten how ugly that election became.

Kaitlan Collins pointed out to Trump that CNN is credentialed by the UN, so they will cover him today even if they're banned from the White House

At her 22-week ultrasound, Amanda Jablonski learned their daughter had developed without a skull or a brain. There was no chance for survival, and every day Amanda stayed pregnant was a threat to her health and life. Under TN law, she was denied an abortion.

A US citizens out on a stroll to the local drug store, suddenly and inexplicably brutally assaulted by a officers of Trump's secret police, who beat him senseless, throwing him to the street and then nonchalantly drive away. Evanston Now has documented the entire incident.

Re-upping this post because Trump keeps sinking further into mental illness and major media keep pretending the mad pilot isn’t flying us into the side of a mountain.
Biden took the short stairs up to Air Force One instead of the long stairs and it was headline news.
Trump publicly fantasizes about conquering neighboring countries and their 170+ million people and the news media will hardly mention it.

Kid Rock, Dog the Bounty Hunter, and James Comer walk into a Kentucky festival. Nobody follows. Six VIP tickets sold. Six. That is the entire MAGA cultural product in one number, a movement reduced to a Facebook rant nobody wanted a lanyard for. Even the rubes kept their wallets shut.

Call me paranoid but I think the EU is trying to bolster alliances outside the Continent to better protect themselves against the implosion of the US.
Philippines and EU have now reached “substantial agreement” on their free-trade agreement; both sides are explicitly presenting it as a “supply-chain diversification move”.

I also don't have a problem writ large with Effective Altruism (or at least, what it said it was when it started). I DO have a problem with how today, thanks to the destruction of USAID and a global aid crisis, EA interests (which also focus on weird AI future risks) are taking over the aid sector.

FOX: We’re active with Iran—how do you get out?

El-Sayed: You don’t get in in the first place. We had an agreement that had contained nuclear weapons. We did not need to do this, so the first time the dunce got elected he pulled back on the agreement.

Because they're locked in to Team Red and it doesn't matter how crappy Team Red is, it doesn't matter if they cheat, they lose, the coach is bad, the hot dogs are bad, the seats are bad, the cheerleaders are ugly, etc.

They are locked into Team Red, that's their team and that's what it is.

"Trump was supposed to go after THEM, not US!"
Mother of Renee Good: I voted for Trump under the impression that these agents were here to protect the citizens of the US, innocents like our family and the others here, against terrorists. Certainly not to accuse those of us here of being terrorists and take precious lives. This is madness.

Although Kamala Harris is referencing BLACK maternal health and linking it to DEI, women's health in general is "DEI" so studying women's ailments in general is going bye bye due to cancelling DEI.

I'm pretty sure studying perimenopause and menopause would be considered DEI and thus unnecessary.
Kamala Harris with El-Sayed: "Here's another fact: The attack on DEI is an attack on maternal care"
