SCOOP: Nancy Mace's so-called "victim hotline" isn't a hotline—it's a voicemail that nobody answers (@juliannemcshane.bsky.social called 3x).
Please don't use Nancy Mace's so-called victim hotline, advocates say
No one picks up. That's not a hotline—it's Nancy's answering machine.

Cecilia harvests oranges in the Clovis CA area. She earns $23 per 900 lb box. She picks 3 boxes a day on average - 5 on a really good day. As it's been raining a lot, she's been working less. This makes things difficult for her as her rent and bill payments can't wait. #WeFeedYou

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH**

Egg prices are soaring again. Here’s why and what to expect
Bird flu has killed millions of hens in recent weeks, shrinking the supply of eggs and hiking up prices at grocery stores.

@theatlantic.com: stop it. Just. Knock it off.
As usual, the entire premise here is false. Left-leaning people talk constantly about how to improve government programs. Meanwhile, conservatives are not 'talking seriously' about improving efficiency, they are attempting to gut government services en masse.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

The egg industry has been impacted by a surge of bird flu cases, with more than 13 million egg-laying hens dying in December. That means a dozen large, Grade A eggs cost an average of $4.15 -- a nearly 37% increase from the year before. via @kcur.org

When I finished grad school my brain was broken. After three brutal years reading meant feeling fear and shame and a sense of failure because I could never read enough. That’s when I started reading (yes, reading) audiobooks. They offered healing and restored my joy in reading.
