Watch @Miriam_Grossman drop multiple truth bombs during her testimony before Congress. In case anyone is wondering, the doctor she continues to refer to in her testimony, Dr. McNamara, is sitting right next to her. The truth is not hateful. #brillant #letkidsbekids

.@maddow is so good she’s always my go-to whenever the news is moving so crazy and fast that even I begin to have moments where I’m struggling to process or keep track of it all. The last thirty seconds or so where she tears into Vance/Project 2025 are perfection.

This Bill will give girls opportunities to realize their dreams to continue learning
THE PROHIBITION OF CHILD MARRIAGE BILL 2024 has been passed in #SierraLeone! This legislation will help #EndChildMarriage, advance #childrights, and give girls a fair shot at a brighter future. With 30% of girls married before 18 (MICS 2017), this is a crucial step forward.

If trump is not going to answer the fucking questions from the facilitators, and they're not going to fact check anything, what is even the point of this????
Come on Jake Tapper and Dana Bash.
THIS IS BULLSHIT.
I hope you’re going to talk about this tomorrow. I’m not sleeping tonight, I can tell you.

The media has so forfeited their basic responsibility of reporting facts that a convicted felon is standing on the largest debate stage in the world just LYING HIS ASS OFF while two polite moderators DON'T LIFT A FUCKING FINGER to correct him with facts.
That's YOUR ONLY JOB.

This is unbelievably fucked up. Suspended for airing concerns many of us share about NPR, an institution many of us loved and depended on?
Senior @NPR editor @uberliner has been suspended from the public radio network he's served for 25 years after sharing concerns about bias in The Free Press: thefp.pub/4aJXNk4

1/ The Cass Review explains, in detail, why we need to trust systematic reviews over both doctors' anecdotal evidence and low-quality standards published by professional associations. The CBC responds by publishing an article that cites professional associations and is dominated by doctors' anecdotal accounts.
Science journalism seems screwed at the moment.

1/ At last, @CBCNews covers the Cass Review, but the article is packed with so much misinformation that it would have been better if they had said nothing. The story ignores key parts of the report and misrepresents others.

Read this excellent history of American eugenics.
Fantastic news.
1/🇺🇸 MEET OUR US TEAM: Carrie D. Mendoza, MD, Director Genspect USA, @ER_MendozaMD.
Carrie is the former Director of FAIR in Medicine with the Foundation Against Intolerance and Racism, the current Director of Genspect USA, and a practicing Emergency Medicine physician with over 20 years of experience working in rural, suburban, and urban hospitals treating snakebites to gunshot wounds to Covid-19 patients. Her practical experience provides unique insights into the American medical system and how the modern healthcare bureaucracy can scale harmful policies while ignoring the negative side effects. Dr Mendoza will share her experience with the opioid epidemic and how the lessons learned about its origin, scale, and mitigation can inform our understanding of medicalizing radical gender ideology and how to stop its harm.
