THREAD: It’s important to hold each criminal accountable. I will say this on what has become a daily basis. The criminal conspiracy run out of the WH pre/during/post 45** is global. When piecing together a conspiracy as large as this naturally Prosecutors want the “big” 1/

fish arguably 45** (certainly) & equally important, his puppeteers. My professional opinion is smart attys both state & federal have been piecing together the puzzle since whiff one. 45** & crew pretty much included every crime imaginable including murder & for that the 2/
time necessary to make your case is significant. But we have people to deal with ASAP like DeJoy who continues his push to destroy USPS & maintains his enormous conflicts of interest. We have the riot guide & insurrectionists. We have Rudy & ppl like that Eric fella. We have 3/
the necessity to build an independent/apolitical agency to hold all these criminals accountable. We have the illegal pardons & the deliberate deaths of 400,000 souls at the hands of Jared & everyone else. We have the call with GA to flip the election & Graham’s call for 4/
the same. We have Nunes exposed during the 1st impeachment trial along w other legislators. We have the Mueller report & we have Barr politicizing the DOJ. He conveniently resigned prior to the riot & there’s no way he was unaware of the crimes about to happen. That is a crime 5/
in and of itself. We have the appointment of Kavanaugh after a perjurious job interview & the ties he has to alt-right groups re his debt, etc. He’s a purchased asset. Barret must be addressed as well. Was she honest her entire testimony? We have the Ukraine call & all 6/
involved & we have the insider trading of Senators from GA off of classified intel re a global pandemic. They can be indicted tomorrow. Go after Rudy. He will flip. Go after Dershowitz if he’s tied to the Epstein scandal. Revisit Epstein & make sure Maxwell flips. Tie the 7/
insurrection to the Russian interference in the election of 45**. The pieces are there. And so on and so forth but what needs immediate attention are lawmakers continuing to control law who are part of the conspiracy & at the direction of another power. They will soon sit 8/
as jurors over a trial of their coconspirator. Start indicting and arresting & getting more clues. Small people who flip often have significant information. Make the moves. This is how we heal. Brick by brick we undo the damage and brick by brick we rebuild better than before. 9/
The holes we have seen in each of our branches must be repaired. We MUST enact new laws, we must test the pardon power, we MUST reign in the executive and we MUST dump the OLC memorandum at the heart of this destruction. Every step matters. MAKE THE MOVES. /END

Brief thread to debunk the repeated claims we hear about transmission not happening 'within school walls', infection in school children being 'a reflection of infection from the community', and 'primary school children less likely to get infected and contribute to transmission'.

I've heard a lot of scientists claim these three - including most recently the chief advisor to the CDC, where the claim that most transmission doesn't happen within the walls of schools. There is strong evidence to rebut this claim. Let's look at


Let's look at the trends of infection in different age groups in England first- as reported by the ONS. Being a random survey of infection in the community, this doesn't suffer from the biases of symptom-based testing, particularly important in children who are often asymptomatic

A few things to note:
1. The infection rates among primary & secondary school children closely follow school openings, closures & levels of attendance. E.g. We see a dip in infections following Oct half-term, followed by a rise after school reopening.


We see steep drops in both primary & secondary school groups after end of term (18th December), but these drops plateau out in primary school children, where attendance has been >20% after re-opening in January (by contrast with 2ndary schools where this is ~5%).

This is a pretty valiant attempt to defend the "Feminist Glaciology" article, which says conventional wisdom is wrong, and this is a solid piece of scholarship. I'll beg to differ, because I think Jeffery, here, is confusing scholarship with "saying things that seem right".


The article is, at heart, deeply weird, even essentialist. Here, for example, is the claim that proposing climate engineering is a "man" thing. Also a "man" thing: attempting to get distance from a topic, approaching it in a disinterested fashion.


Also a "man" thing—physical courage. (I guess, not quite: physical courage "co-constitutes" masculinist glaciology along with nationalism and colonialism.)


There's criticism of a New York Times article that talks about glaciology adventures, which makes a similar point.


At the heart of this chunk is the claim that glaciology excludes women because of a narrative of scientific objectivity and physical adventure. This is a strong claim! It's not enough to say, hey, sure, sounds good. Is it true?
