I was interviewed today re: the relevance of the Declaration of Independence People think "When in the Course of Human Events" is the imp't part. The preamble. But the meat is the long list of sins the King committed vs the colonists. They believed their rights were being violated by a tyrant.

Another day wasted when university presidents & chancellors could have been in front of microphones. The total lack of loud public collective action condemning this & explaining to Americans why this is a complete disaster is utterly maddening. bsky.app/profile/mcop...

I saw a version of this on here before but it's worth yelling: these institutions that Musk is illegally dismantling– the weather service, health system, climate & energy research, international aid, maybe the US mail(?)– they don't belong to him, they belong to us. We invested in them. They're ours

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.

Can we get more of this? “The Japanese American National Museum will ‘scrub nothing,’ Fujioka said, and instead will highlight the importance of DEI. “Our community is based on diversity, equity is guaranteed to us in the Constitution, and inclusion is what we believe in,” Fujioka said.

Not a drill. More people will die because of Trump and RFK - measles spreads like a sci fi movie virus. Not just anti-vaxxers who are vulnerable either - many others including babies, elderly, people with waning immunity, etc. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/02/o...
