Today, the @CFPB announced that it will enforce the @FTC's Click-to-Cancel Rule against financial companies that illegally create an obstacle course to cancel a subscription.
1. Too often, businesses make people jump through endless hoops just to cancel a subscription. Today @FTC finalized a rule requiring that businesses make it as easy to cancel a subscription as it is to sign up for one. ftc.gov/news-events/ne…
GA is the first state to release full vote history for 2024. As a share of the citizen voting-age population, turnout rates went up for all groups compared to 2020 🚨except Black Georgians🚨 #gapol @bluestein @MurphyAJC @cliff_notes @blkprofcct @markniesse @nattheproducer
RFK Jr.'s plans to weaken public health will certainly harm poor and middle class families--those who are least able to exercise choice when it comes to health. By prioritizing personal choice and pulling back population health initiatives (like vaccines, fluoride)... (1/3)

Pre-election, Nadia Brown (@BrownPhDGirl ) and I wrote about women’s anger and their political power beyond the ballot box for Gender on the Ballot @onGender Across race, women’s anger mobilizes action. We’re seeing it now, too. genderontheballot.org/more-than-a-fe…
Still seeing "Harris couldn't turn out millions of Biden voters," and the count in swing states says that's not true. In Wisconsin, Harris got 37k more votes than Biden. The most votes of any Dem candidate since Obama in 2008. She lost bc Trump added 77k more votes since 2020.
Giving a book talk today feels surreal after the events of the past few days, but I also believe my book offers valuable insights into how white supremacy permeates our politics.
“Races” are ideological formations and ideological formations cannot cast votes; only individuals can. If you start from the point of asking why a certain individual voted a particular way, you will get much further in your analysis than by asking why a “group” did.
Remember the heaviness you felt in 2016. You’re still here. Feel your pain, your despair, your rage. But then BREATHE. You got kids to raise, you need to exercise, you still got to go to work, WASH YOUR ASS. Fuck necropolitics. We bout LIFE over here
☑️Herb Conaway, Jr. has been elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in NJ-3. He will succeed Andy Kim.
For the first time in history, the United States has a sitting congressperson who is transgender. Congratulations to Sarah McBride, whose race was just called by MSNBC. She wins in a year where a historic amount of anti-trans ads were blared across TV screens in America.
Angela Alsobrooks (D) and Lisa Blunt Rochester (D) will be the first Black women to serve simultaneously in the U.S. Senate.
A. So, the Edison National Exit Polls have been released, and among Black voters, there's stasis. Harris is currently at 87% & Trump at 12%, same as in 2020. When we look at race*gender, Black men moved 1 pt toward Trump, and Black women 2 pts toward Harris. #electionday2024
Looking forward to sharing my book “Spaces on the Spectrum” this afternoon with Princeton’s Education Research Section!
I spoke w/ @AP about the use of inaccurate, insecure AI transcription tools in clinical settings. The stakes are high & the consequences may be grave. We must demand that AI in medicine abide laws and codes of ethics like HIPAA and the Hippocratic Oath. apnews.com/article/ai-art…
