THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a dual-antibody treatment that remains effective against ALL SARS-CoV-2 variants by targeting a less-mutable part of the virus. This breakthrough could lead to longer-lasting therapies that OUTPACE viral evolution. 🧪🧵⬇️

$32,000 is the remaining PRINCIPLE on our student loans which we have paid 3x over during the past 25 years. Especially damning is this: “If…income growth…remained equitable [since] the 1970s, median household income today would be double what it is now” The rich have robbed us my entire life.

NEW: The Social Security Administration is cutting staff. Field offices will be affected. The same thing happened in the 80s, when 21% of field office jobs were cut. And a new research paper finds that it resulted in 80,000 eligible Americans not getting earned benefits. prospect.org/health/2025-...

A recent analysis found that when Trump imposed tariffs during his first term, companies who contributed to Republicans were more likely to be granted tariff exemptions. Trump's corporate donors won't shoulder the cost of his trade wars. It's crony capitalism at its worst.

This quote is making the rounds again, even though FOX deleted the interview. It's in my book HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT. I'll never forget: 1) the death threats I got in 2016 for posting the clip 2) the amount of effort put into removing HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT, a bestseller, from circulation.

Every faculty who supported police on campus, every one who refused to sign letters of support for their brutalized students: you laid the bricks for politicians to believe they have the authority to crush student voice. Your racism against Palestine is corroding everyone's freedoms.

we have had evil and terrible people running things before but they have generally had some sort of idea for what they think the government should do, some vision by which it should operate these people have nothing except a desire to break it and hurt the people who work for it

This is also the logical conclusion of decades now of slow mainstreaming of far-right talking points Islamophobia, transphobia, anti-immigration discourses were never "legitimate grievances" that deserved to be aired. Their purpose was to prepare the way for this

Everyone deserves to have access to Covid tests. It’s bad enough that air filters and good respirators are financially out of reach for many… it’s appalling the Trump admin even considered destroying their stockpile of tests Keep up the pressure. We need better home testing, and it needs to be free

The backsliding on vaccines is awful but the backsliding on basic germ theory is grim in its own way. Yes, it's "natural" for humans and pets to eat raw meat. It's also just as "natural" to die from the numerous pathogens in it. That's nature; nature is always trying to kill you and your pet.

If you live in NY State & want something concrete to do, call Gov. Hochul's office right now & leave a message saying (as calmly as you can, so as to get your message heard) that it's in her power to stand up to Trump by firing the mayor & that you as her constituent are watching what she does next.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who killed so many children in Samoa they ran out of child-sized coffins, has been confirmed to lead Health and Human Services. The vote was 52-48. All Dems and Mitch McConnell, whose fault this is, voted no. All other Republicans voted yes. The blood will be on their hands.

I can’t even read this. The headline alone is making me sick to my stomach. I will never get over the fact that Trump got elected on the backs of the most vulnerable members of our communities. A vote for Trump was a vote for dead trans kids.

i am going to put a finer point on this: executive orders are not laws. and they certainly are not royal decrees. they are interpretations of existing law for the purposes of enforcement. the fact that so many people are treating them as laws is actually driving me a bit insane.
