A man DM’d I should be shot. For my family’s safety, I asked Twitter for help ID’ing him. When Twitter fell short (thanks for trying!) I asked the guy his name (stringing him a bit) & why he threatened me. Meet Jeremy Marshall who told me he was radicalized by Tucker Carlson. 🧵

The other person he was radicalized by was Joe Rogan.

A few notes:

— I engaged with this guy solely to learn as much as I could about his identify to share it with law enforcement.

— I do not have any family in Canada, I was trying to get information about his business.
Bottom-line: the lies from Tucker and others are radicalizing people across not just America but the world. And the lies are inspiring people to make threats of violence against lawmakers. Tucker & Co. know this. And that’s why they tell their lies. They want to incite the mob.
Finally, please do not threaten/harass Jeremy. Let the law/Instagram hold him accountable. Image

1/4 I’m disappointed that the EAGLE Act, a bill to make our employment-based visa system fairer, hasn't come for a vote in the House. Too many visa holders & their families are stuck in a green card backlog that arbitrarily discriminates against immigrants from certain countries.
2/4 Rao, my constituent, came to California 10 yrs ago for a better life for his children—the U.S. is their home. Sadly, Rao & his family are in a state of uncertainty & fear deportation because the green card he applied for in 2015, is delayed due to the per-country quotas.
3/4 Similarly, Suvo a senior team member at a Fortune 500 Company, can't change jobs, travel abroad or start his own company, because of the green card backlog. Without a green card, his 6 yr old son will have to self-deport once he turns 21 because he can't be on his dad’s visa.

1/4 Very exciting news from @Livermore_Lab, located in my district, that its National Ignition Facility (NIF) produced a fusion reaction that creates a net energy gain.

But wondering what that actually means? I’ll break it down. 🧵
2/4 In the 1960s, @Livermore_Lab scientists wanted to explore if lasers could be used to make fusion in a laboratory setting.

And after years of R&D, diagnostics, modeling, design, and simulation, Livermore Lab created NIF, the world’s largest and most energetic laser system.
3/4 Last week’s fusion experiment at NIF produced more energy from fusion than the laser energy used to drive it.

This historic, first-of-its kind achievement of releasing more energy out than put in, replicates a process that is only found in the sun and stars.
