@AD79DAVE I was trying to figure out which team to cheer for, and this is as good a reason as any. I just hope this team is playing in the Superbowl so I don't sound like a total idiot on Sunday.

I'm truly devastated.

After getting 84 votes in the Senate less than 2 months ago, the Senate Republicans blocked the PACT Act after it was revoted on to correct an error.

This impacts 3.5 million burn pit and Agent Orange veterans who could have received access to health care.

This thread will be dedicated to the victims of the mass shooting in Buffalo.

This is Ruth Whitfield, 86. Her son, the former Buffalo Fire Commissioner, said she was on her way from visiting her husband in a nursing home and stopped at the store to get something to eat.

1. So today I want to write a thread I've been nervous to write.

In January and February, according to CDC data, 42% of ppl who died of Covid were vaccinated.

It's possible that in the near future, a MAJORITY of people dying of Covid may be vaccinated.

You may be hearing the argument that before the rise of modern commercial infant formula, babies all ate breastmilk and everything was great. As a historian of infant feeding, let me tell you why that’s not true.

You may recall the extraordinary Sarah Hughes . . .

She was one of the first women to serve as a federal judge (and the only woman to swear in a President).

What you may not know is that in 1970, she was part of the Three-Judge District Court that heard Roe v. Wade . . . (⚖️🧵)

Morning from Ukraine.

Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands. Overnight Zelenskyy said expected Russian offensive in eastern Ukraine had begun.

This coincided with what Russia claimed were 100s of strikes on mil targets.

Zelenskyy said he has observed a change in Russian strategy…
