🌟 A star is born!

Behind the curtain of dust and gas in these “Cosmic Cliffs” are previously hidden baby stars, now uncovered by Webb. We know — this is a show-stopper. Just take a second to admire the Carina Nebula in all its glory: https://t.co/tlougFWg8B #UnfoldTheUniverse

Since the Supreme Court's 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, a number of not-quite-right claims have lingered about abortion. Here are seven claims, fact-checked.

What a sight.✨ 32 years ago, I powered off my cameras forever. Minutes before, I imaged this pale blue dot; my former home.

The immediate answer to variants should not be third boosters. It should be global vaccine equity.

We will continue to have new, more virulent variants if we allow the virus to grow unchecked. What happens in another part of the world will absolutely impact us.

In one week, a full Moon near its closest point to Earth in its orbit will cross into Earth's shadow. That makes a super lunar eclipse, or if you will, a super blood Moon!

[Congresswoman Cori Bush (Archived) @RepCori]

The fight for Black lives and the fight for Palestinian liberation are interconnected.

We oppose our money going to fund militarized policing, occupation, and systems of violent oppression and trauma.

We are anti-war. We are anti-occupation. And we are anti-apartheid. Period.

I was 7 years old when I first prayed at the Al Aqsa with my sity. It's a sacred site for Muslims. This is equivalent to attacking the Church of the Holy Sepulchre for Christians, or the Temple Mount for Jews.

Israel attacks it during Ramadan. Where's the outrage @POTUS?

Somehow we weathered and witnessed
A nation that isn't broken
but simply unfinished
There is always light
if only we're brave enough to see it
if only we're brave enough to be it.

I'm fed up with fascists calling for unity. The rest of us have to unify against them.

A CNN commentator said ‘maybe we can get back to normal’. But what’s normal? When Obama was President, I was marching for Trayvon Martin fresh out of college”

Let’s thank Black women with more than tweets.

Let’s stand with them to push for economic equity in wages, business ownership, and a basic income. Let’s fix disparities in maternal health. Let’s protect their agency. Let’s ensure they get justice when their door gets kicked in.

Every single swing-seat House Democrat who endorsed #MedicareForAll won re-election or is on track to win re-election.

Every.👏🏽 Single.👏🏽 One.👏🏽

[Naomi Klein @NaomiAKlein]

The fall of tyrants must be celebrated, it's a human right! Profound thanks to all the grassroots groups who did deep organizing to make this happen and who will be pushing hard every day for the new admin to do whatever it takes to get us all to safety.

JOE BIDEN DEFEATS PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP

The Associated Press declares Joe Biden the winner of a grueling campaign for the American presidency. He will lead a polarized nation through a historic collision of health, economic and social crises.

[Jonathan Smucker @jonathansmucker]

If you appreciate Pennsylvania delivering Trump a historic defeat, please support the people-powered grassroots organizations that made a plan to win and have been working their asses off for four years to bring it home.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

People need to really look at the communities who delivered these miraculous victories in AZ, GA, MI, MN, etc. They are rarely a focus of traditional political investment or electoral strategy,& are often sacrificed in policy negotiations.

One “thank you” would be changing that.
