If half the population thinks climate change is a hoax and the other half thinks it's an existential threat that can't be averted, on average we have a well informed public.

Antivaxxers' affection for Regeneron is fascinating. It's under an EUA, and is not FDA-approved. It's a new technology. Its clinical trials started just before the trials for the vaxxes, so we have no idea what the long-term effects of taking it are. And yet antivaxxers love it.

I got a half a dozen jabs just to be embedded with US forces for the Iraq invasion, including for anthrax. I’m certain this isn’t the first “serum” he had to “sit still” for. https://t.co/Vc9DrBA6Sl

If you’re a reporter covering the anti-vax movement, please recognize that this (astroturfing, right-wing activism) is a feature, not a bug, and that many of the loudest voices — ie, the people you’re most likely to interact with — are driven by politics, not vaccine concerns.

Marshall is, as usual, right. The coverage of of this story has been extraordinarily bad.
Times is just on a roll. They actually say here that Biden just backed linkage for the “first time”. We’re supposed to forget that there was actually a faux scandal over this a couple months ago when he threatened a veto if anyone tried to delink the bills? pic.twitter.com/8O8oEvMI7L

For combining bombast with inanity this tweet is hard to beat. A level beyond the normal patter of the "win the morning" press. And the full article is... something! All about the views of her allies, but fails to quote or identify a single one. So inside it's almost intestinal. https://t.co/w3TBHYIo7o

Your regular reminder that "depolarization" is only good if both sides are bad. If one side is good -- say, advancing democracy incl. civic equality like Reps during Reconstruction or Dems today -- then depolarization is antithetical to democracy & thus deeply *harmful.* https://t.co/sFNHc1ZzGe

OAN keeps talking ABOUT the recall. "Officials are finishing up the ballot count," different anchors reading the same script said at both 5 and 7am ET. But they're not admitting what AP, CNN, and everyone else reported last night: The recall failed. Newsom prevailed. (4/7)
