This is one of the most shameful days in U.S. history. A weak, corrupt, deceitful, compromised Kremlinist U.S. president recruited his Yarvinist VP to gang up on a heroic ally on live TV. It devolved into a shouting match. Why? This report explains _exactly_ why:

🧵Delighted to share a new guest post by Dr Anne Toomey on **8 things scientists can do right now to stand up for science in the US** Thread of her *evidence-based* actions follows, whole post here christinapagel.substack.com/p/eight-thin... 1/11

This is insane. Now Trump wants to seize the Postal Service, dismantle its independence, and throw mail delivery into chaos. This isn’t reform—it’s an incompetent, reckless power grab. We will use every tool at our disposal to fight back.

This makes so much sense

What a disgrace. Bezos and the newspaper he has destroyed should be grateful that anyone thinks it’s still worthwhile to buy ad space from them. *This* is how democracy dies.

History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes…

I don’t trust Americans anymore. I totally hear Fanone on character. Can’t imagine how the Europeans feel. #ShameOnUS #Betrayal ⬇️

The risk of 2024 YR4 hitting earth in 2032 is small at 2.1% & likely to grow smaller as calculations are refined. The greater danger to life as we know it is already on earth and spells DOG wrong.

REMINDER #4 4. Don’t grade on a curve Do not hold Republicans to a lower standard and do not hold Democrats to a higher one. When a Republican does something normal, recognize it is normal not exceptional. When a Democrat does something normal, recognize it is normal and not terrible.

Disgusting.

Attention: @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social NO "bipartisan" Vichy bullshit The GOP created this fascist cesspool, let them drown in it Stand up and fight - or resign

NOW

If someone had told me a decade ago that 250 years of democracy and our entire government would be hijacked and picked apart by an African nazi, I would have thought they were on the bad drugs…

I’m just gonna say it. 🗣️None of this awful shit would be happening if folks would have voted for the super qualified Black Lady🤷🏾‍♀️ Literally…none of it .

ELON IS ALLOWED IN THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION. NOT YOUR ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES OR STUDENTS & PARENTS. I WILL BE BACK.

True.

Here's recently resurfaced footage from CNN of then-Senators Marco Rubio and Lindsey Graham voicing their unfettered, full-throated support for foreign aid. They would HATE it if these clips went viral.

Senate Democrats are considering voting NO or delaying every Trump nominee as retaliation for his overreach on ending USAID. Smash the RT if you SUPPORT this plan. ZERO votes from Democrats!!

I’m sure Americans at home and abroad all feel safer tonight now that Trump announced with Bibi that the US is going to take over Gaza, level all the buildings, and forcibly remove the population. Might want to cancel any vacation plans you may have had to Europe.

Cannot tell you how much I love long-term system migration projects like the ones Elon’s got his teens itching to disrupt. Gorgeous, slow-plodding, thankless work we have not wanted to pay for
