Why do right-wing lunatics feel the need to hijack or ruin anything that makes people happy? https://t.co/2eOqxfA0Bq

President Trump just repeated his lie that China only builds windmills to export them to "stupid people from the United States, the suckers."

Reality: China has installed by far the most wind turbines of any country and is installing more of them far faster than any other country.

If you want proof that our health systems overlook women, just look at menopause.

In The New York Times @nytimes today, I share why I’m directing new funding to improve the standard of care for menopause and perimenopause. https://t.co/8BPLMDwxdI

Coal?

Trump at 3 pm today will announce $700 million for 13 current coal plants plus two new ones, sources told @saraecook @RichardEscobedo and me. He's using Defense Production Act. @CBSNews

Tennessee, the 36th and final state needed for ratification, voted yes in August 1920. This image shows Alice Paul, the NWP's leader, unfurling the "ratification flag" from the suffrage headquarters on that day.

The Library of Congress is home to the NWP records and library collection.

[Library of Congress @librarycongress]

Congress approved the 19th Amendment and sent it to the states to ratify on this day in 1919. Whenever a new state voted in favor, the National Woman’s Party (NWP) sewed a star on this giant flag. 🧵

Them: "I just don't agree with your lifestyle."

Gay person: "Oh, you mean my 'wake up, drink coffee, let the dog out, change the cat's litter, start a load of laundry, grab a protein shake on the way to work, flop into bed exhausted at the end of the day' lifestyle?

Them: "No, not that. I mean..."

Gay person: "You mean gay sex? Then say that. Don't say lifestyle!"

The New World Screwworm, a grave parasitic threat, has just been detected in US cattle for the first time since it was eradicated in 1966.

The parasite's revival comes after Trump and DOGE slashed funding for Screwworm monitoring programs.

I know it’s become pretty cliche and cringey to talk about at this point but if you’re under like 25 I cannot stress enough how one time Obama wore a tan suit and people spent a week arguing over whether or not it was demeaning to the Oval Office and they were serious about it.

[NASA History Office @NASAhistory]

Before Neil Armstrong could take his historic first steps on the Moon, NASA first had to master the techniques that would let an astronaut safely exit a spacecraft in space.

On June 3, 1965, Gemini IV pilot Ed White made that first step with the first American spacewalk.

Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump saw this untouched wilderness in Albania and decided to build an enormous luxury resort there.

Albanians are fighting to shut them down.
