If youโ€™re protesting next weekend (๐ŸŽ‰) this weekend you should:

1. Find a friend who isnโ€™t planning to attend and make sure they know your protest plan

2. Drop a good Know Your Rights resource in the group chat

3. Spend a minute with your phone settings so youโ€™re prepped for good digital safety

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992.

Was there a breast cancer epidemic?!

NO.

Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976.

PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something.

This is also about autism.

Last week, DHS and Secretary Noem's staff and spokespeople suggested that because Mr. Abrego Garcia had $1,100 in cash on him when arrested outside Home Depot seeking day labor, that was strong evidence that he was a member of MS-13.

I guess that raises a similar question about her $3,000.
