An entire article about Nazi-looted art and the heirs' struggle for restitution that literally does not mention even once the Jewish identity of the original owner (Fritz Grünbaum, an independently significant cabaret performer) Just irrelevant, eh, NYT? www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/a...

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

First nuclear weapons management, now this. No one - Democrat or Republican - voted for this kind of incompetence.

There are four lights!!!

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!

The General Services Administration, staffed at its upper levels by Elon Musk associates, plans to sell 500-plus buildings—some of which house government agencies and the offices of US senators.

NEW WARNING about ARCTIC WARMING: My new #sciart accompanies research by Ted Schuur, @ecoss-nau.bsky.social et al that carries urgent warnings for the effects that global warming is having on the Arctic: news.nau.edu/arctic-warmi...

Reading about the making of this peacock necklace and I’m stunned in so many ways. robbreport.com/style/jewelr...

The collection of beads ― the largest array of such ornaments ever found ― adorned the attire of the powerful women buried there https://go.nature.com/4jOzW87

A healthier brain could one day be just a snort away: bacteria that colonize the nose have been engineered to ferry drugs to the brains of mice. https://go.nature.com/4hI5zyi

Over 270,000 beads were found in one Copper Age tholos tomb near Sevilla. Along with amber and ivory pendents, they were probably used to bedazzle powerful women's ceremonial garb. 🏺🧪

JUST IN: USDA Confirms Detection of Bird Flu Genotype D1.1 in Nevada Dairy Cows. This marks the first detection of this virus genotype in dairy cattle. Previously, all detections in dairy cattle have been linked to HPAI H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b, genotype B3.13.

"Two-thirds of the staff of the President’s Malaria Initiative, an organization founded by former President George W. Bush, have been fired, including some of the most senior and respected scientists working on malaria control in the world..." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/01/h...

The Trump administration blamed the dismantling of USAID on its workers’ high levels of “insubordination.” Nothing like gaslighting America.

Congressional delegation outside USAID now: “We are here to shed a light on a crime unfolding before our eyes.”

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines. The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds. It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.

@jill-holisticlife.bsky.social hello!!

One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.

FEEDBACK: A viewer wrote about our decision today to detail the violence against police by the Coloradans pardoned by Trump for J6. We did it because many Coloradans back the Blue. And it should be on the record for when those J6 attackers run for office in Colorado. #copolitics

We now know UnitedHealth—under Brian Thompson—illegally overcharged cancer patients for meds by more than 1000%. What we don't know is how many cancer patients died or were financially ruined as a result? What we demand to know is why that act isn't deemed corporate murder & where are the arrests?

ABC, NBC & CBS dedicated about 16 minutes of airtime last night to the California wildfires without once mentioning climate change. Since the news failed do it's job, here's a short summary of the role of climate change and wildfire risk: www.noaa.gov/noaa-wildfir...

$1,131,794,901 That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns. Well, the planet is burning. Don't let them look away.

I have serious concerns about Pete Hegseth’s background, including his mismanagement of non-profit organizations, accusations of sexual assault and drinking problems, blatant disregard for the contributions of female service members, and support for war crimes and torture.

Mark Zuckerberg: I built this platform to give the people a voice Me: okay but actually you built it to rate how hot the woman at your school were

Now let's see the consequences of being stupid. 😢
