Zohran Mamdani’s win has inspired over 3400 young people to raise their hands to run for office just since Tuesday. It’s now @runforsomething.net’s biggest candidate recruitment moment since the election.

The state of Georgia is using the body of a brain-dead woman as an incubator. Because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she died, and their abortion ban is from about 6 weeks, they are sustaining her on life support, without input from her family, until 32 weeks of gestation. A true dystopian nightmare.

Again, this isn't an issue of left vs right, Republican vs Democrat, but authoritarianism vs democracy. You have to decide what side you're on, and fight.
The ICC’s chief prosecutor has lost access to his email, and his bank accounts have been frozen.
American staffers at the court have been told that if they travel to the U.S. they risk arrest.
NGOs have stopped working with the ICC, the leader of one won’t even reply to ICC emails.

The US rep to the IEA said that "pursuing offshore wind power would make countries reliant on China." It's instructive to explore this sort of claim, in particular for what it reveals about those claiming it. Two points:🧵

While the gospels say that Judas led the Romans to Jesus, a new theory is gaining traction with some Biblical scholars. There is evidence, some say, that Judas merely shared Christ's location on an insecure group chat that accidentally included several Roman officials and journalists.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.
If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.
Americans of conscience must stand against this now.
