For the "vaccines don't work so why would I get one" crowd: Image
Another very easy way to illustrate that the vaccines are not only working, but they're working amazingly well against the delta variant to prevent deaths.

I know a lot of people are profiting from pushing misinformation and the CDC is awful at messaging, but the vaccines work! Image
Here's yet another easy illustration of how well the vaccines are working: In Virginia, they've only had 17 vaccinated hospitalizations - just 0.0004%!

There are 42x more cases among unvaxxed Virginians even though over half the state (54%) is vaccinated.

This isn't difficult. Image
Yet another example of COVID vaccines working... if you squint really hard you can see the difference.

This is of San Diego residents and shows that there are 8 cases of unvaccinated cases to every one vaccinated case. Pretty awesome results.

Steak-umm is taking it to Neil deGrasse Tyson and I am here for this battle of the titans.
Whoever runs the Steak-umm account is not backing down and I'm enjoying this way too much.
Seriously - we've got Steak-umm talking epistemology on Twitter over a stupid Neil deGrasse Tyson tweet and we're witnessing greatness in real time.

These photos of the Shoebill Stork are not photoshopped, and I am both mesmerized and terrified.

They can grow up to 5 feet tall and while they don't attack humans they will stare directly into your soul if you get too close.
Imagine walking outside and seeing this Shoebill Stork just staring at you.

This is the stuff of nightmares unless you can train it to do your bidding... then it becomes the nightmare of others.
This is a Shoebill Stork when you tell a particularly funny joke. They are quite fond of bird humor.

Twitter has the right to suspend whoever they want, and Trump spent months begging them to do so.

But if they want to maintain any confidence in their rules, they need to apply them consistently across the entire spectrum of beliefs.

So far they have not come close to doing so.
Twitter kept Trump's account open because he brought in a ton of valuable traffic, but this week were forced to acknowledge that traffic was also coming from people who were seeking to do harm.

The media did the same thing after giving Trump two billion in free airtime in 2016.
We'll find out soon enough how serious Twitter is about no longer being willing to entertain accounts that promote outright hate, misinformation, and extremist politics.

Trump absolutely deserved to be suspended, but now the real work begins for Twitter to apply that uniformly.

Trump comes out and immediately says that a "very sad group of people" are trying to disinfranchise those who voted for him today.

Just incredible to call the process of counting the votes disinfranchising voters.
Trump says it "is also clear we've won Georgia" as the NYT needle shows Biden as the favorite to win the state.
Trump then says it's clear he won North Carolina, which is likely true.

And now he's attacking the Fox News call for Biden to win Arizona.

ABC/Washington Post - National Poll (change from last):

Biden 54 (n/c)
Trump 42 (-2)
Jorgenson 2

Biden increases his already large lead from two weeks ago, leading independents by 12.

They are tied among men, but Biden leads women by 23(!) points.

Biden leads seniors 49-48.
ABC/Washington Post poll: Biden leads Trump nationally by 12 among likely voters, 54-42.

Trump leads non-college grads by 5 while Biden leads those with a college degree by 34(!) points.

The two most striking gaps in 2020 are with gender and education.
Look at these education splits on the ABC/Washington Post poll among white voters:

White w/ no college degree: Trump +26
White college graduate: Biden +31

That's a 57 net point gap with white voters between not having a college degree and having one. Just an amazing divide.

Fox News national poll (change from last):

Biden 51 (+2)
Trump 46 (+4)

A slight tightening since the convention.

-Trump leads men by 6, Biden leads women by 15.
-Trump leads whites by 11, Biden leads non-whites by 54.
-Biden leads by 6 in the battleground states.
I think this is a big reason that Trump's attacks on Biden aren't moving the needle - Biden's favorables are 16 net points higher.

Voters hated both Trump and Hillary in 2016, but Biden isn't Hillary no matter how much Trump tries to turn him into her. Image
After months of the Trump campaign saying that Biden is mentally unfit and needs performance enhancing drugs just to get through a speech, Americans still say Biden is more mentally sound to serve effectively as president than Trump. Image
