THREAD: It was supposed to be a routine surgery. So when the doctor stepped out, Sandra Parker wasn’t sure she heard right.

Her husband’s heart couldn’t have stopped for more than 5 or 6 minutes, the doctor was saying.

“That’s not a lot of time,” Mrs. Parker thought. “Is it?”

Can't believe our tax dollars are going to be spent settling the upcoming exorbitant defamation suit with Sabrina Carpenter, but maybe this is just how public arts funding is going to work now.
Sabrina Carpenter ratioed the White House after it used her song in an ICE video.

The WH deleted the post…but now it’s back with a new ICE video, this time using an altered clip from Carpenter’s SNL monologue.

The Hepatitis B vaccine was expected to prevent 9.5 million infections, 2.4 million chronic cases, and save 600,000 lives in the US by 2050.

The federal vaccine committee has blood on their hands.

Well done, America
This regressive move will literally kill people. It's making kids' liver cancer great again. And it's a sign of more harm to come.

Just finished @jeffpearlman.bsky.social's phenomenal book and I highly recommend keeping @michaelnamikas.bsky.social's Tupac Encyclopedia on hand while reading the Pearlman book - fun to flip to extra details in the Namikas book and check them out further as the narrative unfolds in Pearlman's.

NEW: ICE has finally released post-shutdown detention data. The latest data reveals that a full 40%(!) of people arrested in the interior and held in ICE detention have no criminal record; no criminal charges or prior convictions. That is up from just 4% when Trump took office.
