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

I did not anticipate that so many leaders across industries and professions would allow fear to silence them. Even worse than their silence in the face of Trump’s actions against our democracy is their silent complicity as they watch their peers be targeted, humiliated and punished.

Trump is dismantling democracy right in front of us. He operates on the principle that people will think that if he does it openly and in public, there can't be anything wrong with it. Do not be deceived.

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

“No country can be well governed unless its citizens as a body keep religiously before their minds that they are the guardians of the law.” ~Mark Twain, The Gilded Age (1873) & Charles Dudley Warner. It portrays the contrast between the glittering surface of wealth & corruption & social problems.

FBI Defies Musk’s Federal Crackdown Musk’s demand that federal workers submit proof of work is falling apart. FBI Director Patel told staff to ignore it, as did FEMA, IRS, NOAA, CDC, and the State Department. With agencies pushing back, will Musk’s threats of forced resignations hold any weight?

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

Dan Caine, Trump’s new replacement for Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, reportedly told Trump, “I love you, sir. I think you’re great, sir. I’ll kill for you, sir.” He also put on a MAGA hat, despite it violating military protocol.

This is the most terrifying video of a women in Idaho being dragged out of a town hall by unmarked men. Absolutely terrifying. She’s screaming “WHO ARE YOU??” And the men refuse to identify themselves. www.khq.com/news/attende...

@maddow.msnbc.com Thanks for featuring the protests in SF today. SF is fortunate to have such a highy articulate and passionate advocate as Rebecca Solnit. Am appreciating the stories of resistance and pushback. Keep it up.

When I see Steve Bannon doing a Nazi salute to cheers it means only one thing: 420,000 U.S. troops died defending our country from Nazi assholes and 77 million people voted for them to be in power. MAGA betrayed our country voting for this nightmare.

The Pentagon is now pausing their mass firing of civilian employees in order to evaluate potential impacts on military readiness. I’m just spitballing here, but maybe a readiness assessment should have been the first step. 🤦‍♂️

Don't know how to describe my reaction a lot of the time these past weeks when US Cabinet members speak out in international settings about US opinions. Embarrassment, anger, distrust? The ignorance and flatulence is beyond belief. How are you coping?

A drug addict who makes cars that spontaneously explode, plows into cops, and crash at much higher rates than other cars, is going to fix the air traffic control system? I'm not getting on a plane until this drug-addled illegal immigrant is deported or imprisoned.

It appears as if MSM is not widely reporting this.... Seventeen officials with the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) – responsible for election security and election worker safety – were placed on administrative leave last week. You can't make this shit up....

When my class was elected in 2010, we cut congress’ own budget and our personal ones by about 10 percent. This one should cut theirs by about 20, and each office should lay off a couple employees. Same DOGE is requiring. Make every @gop answer
