You can simultaneously be happy that Adnan Syed is coming home and demand that Hae Min Lee's killer should be found & that her family finally finds peace. Both, in fact, are connected. This was an utter failure of the criminal justice system. They imprisoned the wrong man.

This is big news. For the first time, Baltimore prosecutors are saying they don't have confidence in Adnan Syed's conviction and are asking for his release. teapaw.org/WSJ/status/15700925290…

It's important that people who already had Covid also get vaccinated. A study from Denmark suggests that previous infection provided 80% protection against reinfection, but protection among those age 65 and older was only 47%.

One in four adults in the U.S. has received their first COVID-19 vaccine — and we’re now leading the world in vaccinations. That’s progress.

Facts matter. Decisions matter. Masks and indoor restrictions save lives. Important new report from @CDCgov and it's GREAT to see them back in the game. More about this, and implications of vaccines, in my thread tonight. bit.ly/2Ort7Py

Just observing what people do doesn’t tell you their inner struggle. If you want to know about the inner struggle, you have to create the space to listen and let people tell you about it.

Get vaccinated the moment it's your turn. All the vaccines on or coming to the market are safe and extremely effective in preventing severe Covid illness and death.

I call on President Trump to go on national television now to fulfill his oath and defend the Constitution by demanding an end to this siege.

Just last ​week,​ Donald Trump stood on a​ debate stage ​and refused to condemn white supremacists. This isn’t the first time he’s been an apologist for racists. This is a pattern. When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.
