@TVietor08 Dr Oz is probably cheering for Houston

I don’t necessarily buy the state police saying there were no warning signs when he bought two AR-15s days before the shooting. That’s a warning sign if I ever saw one.

Children being massacred is a price Republicans willingly pay for what, in their view, is the greater good of everyone being able to own the guns they want to have.

No amount of children being slaughtered will change their mind on this.

@nalgenebitch Isn't he also losing something like $7 million from the contract he had? Wild!!

One of the worst outcomes of this political moment is that it’s led a lot of us to mistake decency for bravery.

With a lot of talk about Native voting in Arizona. I thought I would share 2 maps. The left is a map showcasing all 22 tribes in the state. The right an updated 2020 voting results maps by precinct. This give you an idea of how Indigenous communities voted in the 2020 election.

Good news! Glad to see Referendum 90 pass. Washington will ensure that students in our public schools have access to comprehensive, age-appropriate sexual health education.

Duke Study concluded wearing buff/neck gaiters may be worse than not wearing a mask at all- thin material disperses big droplets into smaller ones that remain in air longer.
Research institutions should rely on science when developing PR campaigns.

another example of people in power using passive voice to shift blame on victims

[Julián Castro @JulianCastro]

"An individual was involved in the use of firearms to resolve a conflict" is a strange way of explaining that someone murdered two protestors.

Trump creating content for part 2 of ‘How to lie with statistics’

[Axios @axios]

.@jonathanvswan: “Oh, you’re doing death as a proportion of cases. I’m talking about death as a proportion of population. That’s where the U.S. is really bad. Much worse than South Korea, Germany, etc.”

@realdonaldtrump: “You can’t do that.”

Swan: “Why can’t I do that?”

In May the unemployment rate declined by nearly 2 percentage points for white Americans.

For black Americans, it did not decline at all.

[Samuel Sinyangwe @samswey]

The conversation about police violence is becoming like the conversation about school shootings. We know what the problems are. And we know what works to substantially reduce the violence. The problem is not a lack of knowledge or solutions - it’s a lack of political will.

I cannot fathom the isolation and re-traumatization this creates for survivors (also how will this impact prosecution and evidence collection/preservation protocols?..)

Fears of getting infected with the coronavirus have prompted authorities in Northern California to allow some sexual assault victims to collect evidence with a nurse directing them in the hourslong process through a video call. https://t.co/utLHWQz1Pc

The first step in the government’s COVID-19 response appears to be to keep the genders separated.
