The crucial role of the Navajos in breaking the codes of the Axis powers in WWII is being erased from the archives and military websites by Trump & Co. Too “DEI” to acknowledge, it seems. All in a day’s work for a newbie dictator. It’s worth the effort to believe truth will triumph in the end

I've never heard of "clean coal". Is it like magic beans? #TrumpIsAnIdiot

He seems like the epitome of a psychologically healthy human being, don’t you think

Oh, honey . . . Donald Trump *is* a rapist (per a unanimous jury of his peers), which makes him a violent criminal. And yet you not only fought to keep him in the country, you fought to make the incompetent buffoon run it. So kindly take a seat, JD, you shameless toady.

Women live longer than men (we don't know why). Women have a higher risk of Alzheimer's (taking age into account) Many theories for both, but the answer(s) are not known www.nytimes.com/2025/02/25/w.... www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Trump now says Biden’s pardons of those who investigated his J6 insurrection are void. Total BS. That’s not how the pardon power works, dummy. If any pardons were subject to second-guessing, it’d be the ones you handed out to the J6 mob you unleashed to keep you in power for life!

So fighting for the Robert E Lee statues wasn’t really about just preserving history. I’m shocked.

The members of the Jan 6 Committee are all proud of our work. Your threats will not intimidate us. Or silence us.

A US-born citizen was walking near Chicago in January. ICE snatched him off the street, handcuffed him, threw into a van. His wallet, which contained his ID, was confiscated. He was detained for 10 hours before being released without a record of what occurred. immigrantjustice.org/sites/defaul...

Trump CANNOT legally reverse Biden’s pardons. The bigger question is what improper and illegal actions will be taken by Trump’s DOJ and FBI that would fly in the face of those Biden pardons.

It is genuinely your moral duty, if you’re in the sciences, to violate the terms of your contact and take as much of the research home with you as you can. Today, tomorrow, every day your lab’s still open.

NIH officials have urged scientists to remove all references to mRNA vaccine technology from their grant applications, signaling the agency might abandon a promising field of medical research. The mRNA technology could be used to prevent and treat infectious diseases like AIDS, and also cancer.

This is despicable! We won’t forgive , we won’t forget, we must not accept these conditions either. Keep resisting , keep fighting back! Never give up!

101 of these men had no criminal records at all. This is fascism.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did in J6!!!!

How is this prediction going so far?

This is Pete Hegseth’s Department of Defense. Labeling the highest ranking black Medal of Honor recipient “DEI.” Pure racism. My latest post. open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Actually, the White House explicitly admitted to violating the order. Their claim is they don’t have to comply with court orders.

The damage Fox has done to the truth, is incalculable…

It. Is. Bezos. Invading. The. News. Department. Of. His. Once. Great. Paper.

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

REMOVE this cancer from office

Psychotic.

THIS is what happens when science-deficient people are in charge www.msn.com/en-gb/health... PEOPLE DIE

The crack down on science is frightening. One of my earlier papers pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18022700/ would NEVER be permitted to be published today! Our NIH grant would NOT be funded. People die when you kill science.

Whoever is doing this in the UK deserves an award.

these are our party leaders now, ignore all other opinions

@statisticurban.bsky.social: “The DoD has removed the article on Charles Roger's Medal of Honor. He served in Vietnam. Despite being wounded three times in battle, rallied his troops & led them to victory in defense of Support Base Rita. Nixon presented his Medal. The url is changed to "deimedal.”

“Schmidt being “violently interrogated” at Logan Airport for hours, and being stripped naked, put in a cold shower by two officials, and being put back onto a chair.” Whatever happened to #abolishICE? It needs to be abolished. This is torture.

FIXED IT: "The American people are fed up with the Orange Moron, saying something that then applies to the entire country"

If you attack the Capitol to overturn election results and to overthrow democracy on behalf of a criminal, you’re a hero. If you attack a Tesla dealership, we’ll throw away the key.

We honor the legacy and courage of the foot soldiers who fought for and won the freedom to vote. Our mission is to protect and expand that right.

I really like her

Almost 2100 years ago, these guys somehow figured out how to solve the prisoners’ dilemma

I'm leading the charge demanding USDA reverse its cancellation of $1 billion in food purchases for local schools, food banks, & child care centers. As people struggle with rising grocery prices, these purchases help them keep food on the table – & support the California farmers who feed our nation.

I hate to say ‘I told you so’ but… I told you so. Seven years ago:

This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH
