New Republican voters are much less MAGA. That will hurt the party in 2026.

The last time Indiana won an outright Big Ten title, 1945, the leading rusher was George Taliaferro.
The next spring, he was the first Black player to be drafted by an NFL team.

Ann Lowe was the Black genius behind Jackie Kennedy’s iconic wedding gown.
Before the fashion world was ready to credit a Black woman’s talent, Lowe was already designing for America’s most powerful families. Brilliant. Bold. Innovative. Undervalued. And nearly erased from history.

I’m surprised more tech companies don’t create mascots rather than letting loathsome CEOs be the face of their business.

I don't know, seems bad for your ability and reputation as a journalist if you spent a lot of time during the current administration of a president in declining health not reporting on that but instead hawking your book on the declining health of a previous president who'll never be president again.

How many preventable infant deaths will it take for the Children of the Chalk to realize vaccines save lives? I'm not wishing death on babies, but all these roll backs from Secretary Worm Head puts everybody in harm's way, especially babies.

I'm hoping there are no global pandemics or dangerous diseases coming our way. Many of us won't make it because y'all elected people who don't care to govern. The only people who matter to this Administration are themselves, their family and friends, and the people who can do something for them.

I'm seriously concerned for the immunocompromised, disabled, elderly, young children, and other vulnerable populations. They're removing all the safeguards and leaving us to fend for ourselves.

I've never heard of Darwinism as a form of governance, but here we are. It's going to be survival of the fittest out in these streets if we have to deal with a pandemic, or an outbreak of a dangerous disease.

A nuclear-powered vessel would be 39% faster than conventional cargo ships, allowing it to make 1.3 more round trip voyages per year on average.

We have a lot of fake nostalgia, for instance, for the 1950's, (when women and Black people had fewer rights, natch) but we *could* have closer to a 1950's economy if we exploded union membership, subsidized housing, and free college. (The new GI bill could stand for "general improvement.")

Historian of eugenics here. I don't normally like to retweet bad arguments, but this is such a fundamental misunderstanding of eugenics, I think it's important to point out. I don't have time to debunk all of the ways this is inaccurate, but I'll highlight a few things and then recommend some books🧵
