And who funded this work…? NSF funded all the US Antarctic ice cores (💚🩵) & NOAA funds Mauna Loa (🖤). Antarctic ice is the only archive clean enough to preserve unaltered air in bubbles in the ice.

Here is really good info on what indirect rates are and are not. TL;DR - the Republican administration’s plan to cut indirect rates will make Americans sicker, poorer, and more vulnerable. Call your congressional representatives to tell them to fund American success. research.unc.edu/wp-content/u...

And yet Joe Rogan puts guests on who say "Vaccines aren't actually responsible for the reduction in infectious diseases.”

Trump has cut the NIH budget by more than half in defiance of Congressionally mandated appropriations for the agency. No comparison historically, not even the Great Recession. This is clearly not legal and Congress needs to address it.

Happy 107th birthday Navajo Code Talker John Kinsel, Sr. Thank you for serving our country Your code talker work was invaluable to our country winning the war. navajotimes.com/reznews/reme...

We Stood Up For Science in Los Angeles

RFK Jr. said in his Fox News OpEd that “Good nutrition remains a best defense against most chronic and infectious illnesses”. The best diet in the world will not prevent infection if you are unvaccinated and sharing air with someone who has measles.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

This is the latest MAGA conspiracy. Total lie. The meeting with Zelensky was bipartisan - led by a Senate Republican. We all encouraged him to sign the minerals deal. But yes - he did make clear he wouldn’t accept a bad “ceasefire” deal that sold out his country.

Trump and Musk are cutting off cancer research.

Here's how a REAL President that is NOT a Traitor & mouthpiece for Russia, TREATS a war devastated country leader. Thank you, President Biden! America STANDS with Ukraine and President Zelenskyy. 🇺🇦💜

Ex-Trump National Security Adviser John Bolton is calling for Secretary of State Marco Rubio and current National Security Adviser Mike Waltz to resign over the Ukraine debacle.

I've seen three different articles on this, because the guy who owns the company that makes this stuff reached out to the press. He's got 400,000 boxes of life-saving goo sitting in a warehouse, and if USAID won't accept it, he's going to have to throw it out.

Answer to Vance: Zelenskyy has thanked our country over and over again both privately and publicly. And our country thanks HIM and the Ukrainian patriots who have stood up to a dictator, buried their own & stopped Putin from marching right into the rest of Europe. Shame on you.

Egg shortages. Fatal measles outbreaks. Airplane crashes. Crypto scams. Tariffs. Betrayal of allies. Pardons and special favors for insurrectionists, crooked mayors, and online pimps. The American people voted for change!

Democrats: Empty libraries, gymnasiums, lecture halls, anywhere. Book the space and dare these pathetic House Republicans to show their faces. Share this if you agree.

Elon Musk and his 19-year-olds have now disrupted the approval of medical devices that save lives. Every member of Congress bears a responsibility to stop this right now.

A Southwest Airlines jet attempting to land at Chicago Midway Airport nearly collided with a private plane on the runway.

And so Trump's Defense Department bans participation in an event honoring one of the greatest of all Americans.

This is fascism.

This means nothing. Useless. Empty words, zero action. Boycott his events. Refuse to cover his photo ops and propaganda signings. He’s addicted to coverage and hates being ignored. Until you band together and do something, these statements are utterly pointless & pathetic.

Physician Senators, What Have You Done? www.medpagetoday.com/opinion/seco... As a fellow alumnus of the Louisiana State University School of Medicine I am embarrassed to be associated with this senator.

@indivisible.org I learned the pledge as it was originally written before it was changed by congress in ‘54: “…one Nation, INDIVISIBLE, with Liberty and Justice for all.” So also my dad learned it growing up in Emerson, AR. It carried him through his service in WW2. Is that the reference here?

Nothing but kindness, courtesy, complete sentences, and positivity for 107 days: the antithesis of the hate, cruelty, word salad, and decadence we face. We must find ways to demonstrate and spread this contrast. She must continue to lead and we must share it.
