1/ As pro-Trump rioters stormed the US Capitol Wednesday, Senate staffers carried the electoral ballots to safety. It’s not the first time an item of historical significance has been rescued.
2/ During the War of 1812, the first time the Capitol was stormed, War Office clerks hid the original parchment Constitution in a linen sack and carried it to a mill in Virginia, saving it from British troops who burned much of DC.
3/ Dolley Madison did some quick thinking during the War of 1812. As the British approached the White House on Aug. 23, 1814, she ordered household workers to remove a full-length portrait of George Washington from its frame so it could be spirited to safety.

Drug overdose deaths have risen to the highest level ever.
Maybe someday, we’ll be able to treat addicts with a vaccine. retroreport.org/video/why-this…
medpagetoday.com/publichealthpo….
1/ We heard objections to our tweet pointing to a Retro Report video about changing attitudes toward addiction. Specifically, our tweet overstated the potential benefit of a vaccine in development, and the tweet and the video title used the word 'addicts,' which carries a stigma.

1/8 How is it that the highest office in the land - the US presidency - is one where the person who gets the most votes can still lose the election? 50 years ago, Congress came close to changing that. Why did the effort fail?
Thread 👇
2/8 Twice in the last 20 years (2016 Trump, 2000 Bush), and 3 other times, presidents took office by winning enough electoral college votes (270 or more) but losing the popular vote. This arcane, some say undemocratic, system dates back to the nation’s founding.
3/8 In 1787, most of the men writing the new nation’s rules wanted the president chosen by Congress (men like them.) Direct election was pushed by James Madison but seen as leading to mob rule. The electoral college was the cumbersome compromise.

In October 2019, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was asked which #SupremeCourt cases during her tenure had done the most harm. She cited three. #SCOTUS
vox.com/2020/9/18/2091…
First was Shelby County v. Holder.

In 2013, #RBG issued a blistering dissent in the case: “Throwing out preclearance when it has worked and is continuing to work to stop discriminatory changes is like throwing away your umbrella in a rainstorm because you are not getting wet."
Ginsburg’s dissent referred to the protections in the 1965 Voting Rights Act which she believed were being rolled back.

Here we look at how the ruling in that case is playing out today:
