Nearly 2,000 leading American scientists, including dozens of Nobel Prize winners, have issued a stark warning that the U.S. lead in science is being "decimated" by the Trump administration's cuts to research and a growing "climate of fear" that jeopardizes independent research.

Just a reminder, folks, today is April 1st, or as I'm going to think of it "Unofficial media literacy day." Also pranks can be cruel, if you read anything before attempting one make sure it's the fucking room.

My friend @booker.senate.gov is on hour 14 on the Senator floor to amplify the voices of Americans being harmed by Donald Trump and Elon Musk. This isn’t business as usual, and we won’t act like it is. Tune in ⬇️

To my trans friends and family: I know it absolutely doesn't feel safe to be visible in the world today. All I can say is I will keep doing my damnedest to help change that. I see you, today and every day. But if anyone asks, I didn't see shit. Love y'all. ❤️

The fact Trump created a special refugee/asylum status for (white) Afrikaners has been widely reported. This is the first reporting I've seen abt just how much we're doing/spending to essentially recruit Afrikaners to resettle in the US www.nytimes.com/2025/03/30/u...

Iran declares its armed forces have readied missiles with the capability to strike US-related positions. This report comes in response to Trump’s threats of “bombing the likes of which they have never seen before” if Tehran does not agree to a new nuclear agreement.

If Trumpty-Dumpty is working with the Russians to screw up America, he's doing a great job. Eggs, $11 a dozen. Health & Human Services down the dumper, ditto VA. If you call Social Security, they tell you to call back later. Guys 'n gals, this is more fucked up than Peter O'Toole on his birthday.

www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202... This is beyond reckless. With measles cases spreading across TX and the U.S., we need scientists at the table, not folks pushing conspiracy theories. RFK Jr. is playing games with people’s lives.

Fear and compliance. That’s the point. “Mistaken” abductions serve their purposes. “Oops. You might be taken too.” They’re a threat. A tactic.

Oh my God. The email contains an implied threat that any student who doesn’t immediately leave might be sent to El Salvador. /technically it says “countries other than their countries of origin,” but the context right now, given everything going on, makes the threat clear.

When I got a PhD in nineteenth-century political history, I really, truly never imagined I would have to find a way to explain to readers what an eggplant emoji means. (Wired reported more Signalgate Venmo accounts.) I yearn for the day when I can write about good, clean fun like tax policy again.

Horrifying. Disappearing and targeting students with legal status over peaceful political speech is unconstitutional and a clear violation of due process and free speech. Another blatant act of authoritarianism by the Trump Administration. Rumeysa must be released.
