📺 Sen. Josh Hawley tells #AxiosOnHBO that he'll make masculinity a signature political issue, because he claims "the left" is telling men: "You're part of the problem...Your masculinity is inherently problematic."

trib.al/7QInsbE
As an ambitious Republican frequently mentioned as a possible future candidate for president or vice president, Hawley is using American masculinity to appeal to suburban parents, and to working men won over by Donald Trump. axios.com/josh-hawley-ma…
Hawley: "As conservatives, we've got to call men back to responsibility. We've got to say that spending your time not working...spending your time on video games, spending your time watching porn online...is not good for you, your family or this country." axios.com/josh-hawley-ma…

13 Republicans crossed party lines to help Dems pass the $1.2T infrastructure bill, with some swing-district reps saying they can survive the fallout from their own party — and that their vote strengthens their standing with voters next year.

trib.al/krKC1qv
Rep. Nicole Malliotakis after she helped Democrats pass the bill despite no-votes from 6 liberal lawmakers, including AOC:

“I weakened their hand. They have no leverage now. … I voted against AOC and the squad tonight."

Rep. Don Bacon told Axios he faced a damned-if-you-do, damned-if-you-don't choice.

“You vote one way, maybe it hurts in the primary. You vote the other way... in my district, it'd hurt me in the general."

@TreedinDC @ncats_nih_gov @jonirutter @RARE_X_ @nicoleboice .@jonirutter On medical costs for rare diseases: "If you think about the U.S. alone, that's $400 billion in direct medical costs per year that we're spending on rare diseases. This is a huge health care burden that we wanted to really understand and actually put a number on."
@TreedinDC @ncats_nih_gov @jonirutter @RARE_X_ @nicoleboice .@nicoleboice: "There's three really big challenges that face rare disease: data silos, the lack of structured and appropriate data for research, as well as no data."

⚽️ 1/ Sports commentary is riddled with unconscious bias.

Now, a new study shows just how drastically race and gender can impact fandom. trib.al/vuhTWzL
2/ Using a clip of Senegal vs. Poland at the 2018 World Cup, researchers produced an animated rendering where players' race wasn't visible.

47 study participants watched the original broadcast.

58 others saw the rendering. Image
3/ The results?

70% of participants who watched the original broadcast said Senegal was "more athletic or quick" — a common stereotype of Black players.

But 62% of those who watched the rendering picked Poland, whose players were all white, as the more athletic team. Image
