🚨 NIAC’s latest poll shows Iranian Americans support diplomacy despite attempts to portray the community as pro-war.
A new national poll conducted by NIAC in partnership with Zogby Analytics shows that claim doesn’t reflect reality.
Here’s what Iranian Americans actually think 🧵
@RepStephenLynch Thank you @repstephenlynch. What we are witnessing and enabling in Gaza through our military assistance to Israel is truly unbearable. The silence of so many of our elected representatives is shameful. I applaud you for continuing to speak out .
I’ve been frustrated with Lynch for decades. He has been notoriously inaccessible to his constituents and he definitely doesn’t know how to meet this moment. The district has changed and it’s time for all of us to be represented, not just the few with access.
Today we're launching The Flipside, a news website providing news aimed at communities of color in the Greater Boston area. Take a look. If you like what you see, please subscribe (it's free)!

Rumeysa was kidnapped in plain sight & sent to Louisiana to be locked in the same detention center Mahmoud Khalil was sent to.
She's a peaceful protestor, grad student, & my constituent who has a right to free speech & due process.
Now she's a political prisoner. Free her now.
Trump sent masked law enforcement officers to arrest Rumeysa Ozturk—a Tufts University grad student with legal status—without a criminal charge. Disappearances like these are part of Trump’s all-out assault on our basic freedoms. This is authoritarianism, and we will not let this stand.
I need people to remember that a black man won the popular vote twice and a woman won the popular vote once but lost bc (among other things) of electoral college/bad strategy. Do not let people say this country won’t vote for a woman. The majority of voters literally did lol.
A big day for students @BUTweets Justice Media Computational Journalism co-Lab! We spent multiple semesters with the great @noahpransky, digging into 1,200 judges. Huge thank you to all the support from @BUJODept@COMatBU@bu_spark@BU_CDS

As of today, any Coloradan can walk into a bike shop and instantly get $450 off an e-bike. No race to get a voucher, no income limits, no waiting to claim a tax credit.
It's the first such program in the nation.
