I'm posting this at least once a day and so should as many people as possible. As a child of the sixties protests at Columbia where I was pepper sprayed, billy clubbed and dragged by the hair, I know they will plant agitators in order to create the chaos they need to justify their violence. RESIST

NEW: I analyzed nearly 300 federal cases involving the Trump administration. Federal judges—across the political spectrum—are using language I’ve never seen before. One called government actions “unconscionable.” Another quoted Kafka. They’re begging us to pay attention.

The Trump EOs are an abuse of executive power unjustified under any fair reading of the Constitution. The rulings against the EOs are powerful…& the Administration’s defense arguments flimsy enough, that we suspect the firms will prevail again if the Trump appeals. www.wsj.com/opinion/rich...

In a public forum at UCSD in 2011 where I was interviewer, Musk said he was "highly confident" SpaceX would be operating manned missions to Mars by now. (He said manned landings in 2026. Which means launch by now.) Meanwhile, the realities. What a guy. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/s...

FYI- this means we effectively can no longer bring the majority of STEM grad students and postdocs into the USA. You couldn’t try to destroy science in this country any more if you tried. 🧪🔭🎢 www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...

Trump reduced the tariffs on China in exchange for nothing. He paused the tariffs on Canada & Mexico in exchange for nothing. He postponed tariffs on EU in exchange for nothing. He threatened Russia with sanctions if they didn’t sign ceasefire & did nothing. Art of the Deal.

Vital point here. The frames of political discourse — which are shaped by the structure of the info environment and by both strategic & organic communication — shape how people interpret their own experiences. We're not dealing with a problem of bad "facts" ... but one of corrupted sensemaking.

Not understanding how power is allocated among the three branches of government, he said, leaves a void that invites a strongman. After a crisis, he said, “one person will come forward and say, ‘Give me total power, and I will solve this problem.’” www.nytimes.com/2025/05/12/u...

Today on Capitol Hill, Republicans are trying to slip a tiny provision into their budget bill which would help the tech industry collude to jack up rents across America. It’s literally happening right now in the House as you read this sentence - pass it on👇

There is a reason why millions of workers want to join unions. There is a reason why greedy corporations oppose unions. Union membership means higher wages and better benefits. Let’s grow the trade union movement.

I really wish reporters would stop saying that there is an effort by the Trump administration to combat antisemitism. It is quite the opposite. There is an effort to foment antisemitism. forward.com/fast-forward...

The canceled grands are shock and awe, but the real damage will come from the long-term (massive) reductions in funding to the entire US research ecosystem and the defunding of entire fields and initiatives for training, growing, and diversifying the research workforce.
