Good point here from Stanley: lack of GOP representation occurs in fields beyond humanities and social science. It's not about universities abandoning the GOP, but the GOP divorcing itself from science.

"Donald Trump has wrecked America’s brand. He’s made crossing over from Canada a betrayal, bordering on treason, while turning the U.S. into a laughingstock around the globe." @rollingstone.com www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Trump looks like an utter jackass. Marching soldiers like toys when a real war is going on. Attacking peaceful, productive Americans and dehumanizing them. Now an evil political assassination. He cannot and will not perform his job. Those who voted for him should forever hang their heads in shame.

Pete Hegseth better make sure he gets a pardon Because it sure looks like he violated the Posse Comitatus Act "Whoever..uses..the [military] as a posse comitatus or otherwise to execute the laws shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both" 18 US Code § 1385

New Yorkers, please protect my hometown. And please don’t force the country to listen to Andrew Cuomo’s voice for the next 4 years.So many other good options. Please & thank you. And @spectrumnewsny1.bsky.social thanks for modeling how a 7 candidate debate can be informative & spicy. #MayoralDebate

Understand the Republican Party is all about loyalty tests now. Every outrage is an opportunity to reinforce the dominance of the In group and filter out anyone suspected of disloyalty. They don't need to believe anything that's happening is right, they just need to prove loyalty again and again.

@schumer.senate.gov do your job

House Democrats need to bring articles of impeachment against Kristi Noem, while Senate Democrats need to bring that chamber to a fucking halt.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez just responded on Instagram Live—and he isn’t staying silent about Sen Alex Padilla being forcibly removed When senators are treated like threats, it’s fascism. Going forward, we must choose our battles wisely as MSM is not on our side. Don’t poke the bear.

@kim.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov

Senator Alex Padilla of California was removed by force from Kristi Noem’s presser and handcuffed for his free speech. This is what a fascist regime does that rejects the laws of the US. It should horrify every American. Let’s stop pretending we are approaching authoritarian rule. We are there.

We have long passed the point when impeachment is justified

In the past week, a union leader has been arrested, a U.S. Rep charged with a crime, a U.S. Senator violently handcuffed, and reporters shot with rubber bullets and detained. There is no ambiguity. This is a regime operating as an authoritarian. Americans who believe in liberty must oppose it.

🚨 Secretary Noem basically said that her agency is now dedicated to forcible regime change…in American cities and states. There 👏🏽 is 👏🏽 a 👏🏽 name 👏🏽 for 👏🏽 this

If he hadn't fired all the weather people Trump might have known about possibilty of torrential rain and thunder on Sat. The birthday boy may have a tantrum over this one.

Every prominent Democrat in the country should jump on this immediately. Enough bullshit cowering on this issue. Get on this! Trump just handed you a massive weapon. Use it!
