I hate the gaslighting and questioning of reality that these frauds do. They sincerely believe only THEY can have any strong convictions. Just because YOU choose to not associate with people who disagree doesn’t mean they don’t exist

I have just received word that my new book has become an instant bestseller, reaching the New York Times nonfiction bestseller list to be made public at 7pm eastern tonight. Thank you to everyone who has supported the book and made this happen!

Trump is set to leave the White House early today to go to his Florida golf club after setting the economy on fire with his devastating tariff announcement.

As Trump & Musk tear down our federal science agencies & jeopardize U.S. global science leadership, CA needs to step up. I introduced legislation (SB 829) to create the California Institute for Scientific Research & solidify CA’s global science leadership in the absence of federal leadership.🧵

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

If you are a vaguely Hispanic-looking citizen or legal resident of the US who has ever gotten any ink, there is practically nothing standing between you and life in a distant foreign prison if an ICE team needs to meet a quota.

Fascist Dictator. There are no two ways about it. Even our pretend US democracy is gone. As are checks and balances. As is the Republic. Are you wondering what you would be doing in 1933? Check what you are doing now.

STOP SHIPPING ME WITH BARRON TRUMP. I SEE Y’ALL💀💀💀💀

Well isn't that fine. This admin has finally reached the top of Idiot Hill. www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

The Columbia deportation case is bad enough on its own — but the precedent is worse. People can be deported without breaking a law because of a vague reference to foreign policy.

no funding if it seems like the research MIGHT involve a woman or a nonwhite person

Friday night, ICE went to downtown San Francisco office buildings. The janitors who work in these buildings clean our city’s offices. They go to work each day, pay taxes & raise their kids. They’re salt of the earth. Trump says he’s only targeting criminals. That’s a bald-faced lie.

ICYMI: “A federal judge on Monday struck down key parts of an Arkansas law that would have allowed criminal charges against librarians and booksellers for providing ‘harmful’ materials to minors.” apnews.com/article/arka...

You know it’s bad when even Trump is pity posting through it 💀

Homeboy stopped the wrong lady (H/T @agirlhasnopres.bsky.social )

The culture wars, the race wars, the gender wars...all smoke screens for the war they don't want you to fight. The class wars.

A doctor’s letter to United Healthcare for denying nausea meds for a child on chemo

Never again! We cannot count on the Feds to protect Californians. We can only count on ourselves. Only we can save us now! #FreeTheBear www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

I must convince myself every day that I know absolutely nothing, search for knowledge, disseminate the opinion from the facts, and present objective facts. Life of a true researcher, every DAY.

Oh look! It’s a gallery of things I must now order online because it takes 20 minutes to find the Keeper of the Deodorant Key

This ~ 💯%

As California considers backfilling federal EV incentives if Trump cuts them, let’s also remember Trump wants to end federal support for public transportation. California needs to prioritize shoring up our transit systems. Transit service cuts would spike costs for so many.

Tim Walz needs a podcast to help get us through the next 4 years. Do you agree?

New report is out from the CDC on states with the highest rate of STD infections. The top 9 are all Republican states. 1. LA 2. MS 3. AK 4. SD 5. GA 6. AL 7. NC 8. SC 9. AR

"Strаight people boring" is like "books are boring": statistically true I guess, but really just tells me you have terrible taste in strаight people

This is good news— and predictable. Threads was insistent on throttling political content, insistent on using a non-linear timeline, and insistent on promoting the same type of mindless engagement bait (“what’s the solution to this math problem?”) that rendered Facebook unusable.

When I say that the right is dominating the left on almost all platforms, this is what I mean. I hope Democratic officials take this into account every day. If you want an ecosystem that will advocate for YOU, then YOU need to help build it. Give interviews to creators, break news with creators...
