Rubio is talking deporting US CITIZENS to a prison in El Salvador if we are "perceived enemies" of Tr*mp's regime. This is 100 kinds of illegal and terrifying. THIS IS AN AUTHORITARIAN TAKEOVER of the US. This is a coup, where is the military, the citizenry, the Congress stopping this insanity??

Is the MAHA crew going to call Trump a pharma shill now? Because he literally revoked the prescription drug price cuts on his first day? Or do they reserve that title only for actual qualified scientists and healthcare professionals that fact-check lies they profit off of?

If you find that your uninformed personal opinion disagrees with expert consensus on a technical topic, please consider that “all the experts know something I don’t” is a much more likely explanation than “I alone solved a complex problem that all the world’s experts have long been studying.”

Trump has still not introduced a single plan or policy to lower grocery prices. But he is taking action on day one to raise prices.

Tell anyone defending Elon Musk to film themselves doing the same “wave” and upload it to the internet. Tell them to share it with their friends and family and employer. If it’s not so bad, what could happen?

This is a generational fight. If you think this is going to be fixed after a Blue Wave in 2026, you’re not being realistic. I’m begging you to put down the AI slop memes and be realistic.

I would caution people to stop relying on the Constitution as written to have any meaning other than what the people Trump put on the Supreme Court says it means. "He can't do that" is not a useful response to the things he's going to do. The correct response is "Will the Court uphold that?"

Historian of fascism here. It was a Nazi salute and a very belligerent one too.

It's a miracle: Trump has courageously saved TikTok (somehow) after TikTok banned itself for a few hours.

3 things about this message that greeted millions of Americans on TikTok today: 1) the shamelessness of Trump who just U-turned on his opposition to TikTok. 2) the shamelessness of these tech companies, sucking up to Trump. 3) the fecklessness of Biden who gave Trump this win.

This is the GOP’s long con on full display.

What’s the difference between a gov controlling an algorithm, silently eliminating reach for things it doesn’t like, vs the same gov using its power, to demand that the platform remove the things it doesn’t like.? In China they are overt. With TikTok in the US, they control silently

After launching the effort to ban TikTok in 2020, Trump will now take credit for eventually saving it, and TikTok is going along with it

i think opponents of trump also have to resist the temptation of intellectualizing his outbursts or attributing them to some recognizable goal. the fact is that trump is obsessed with greenland because it is big on a map. he wants canada because it is also big on a map. that's it.

He was "officially a convicted felon" in May. I feel like I'm losing my mind with this weird and entirely false narrative.

Calley keeps sharing this graph but doesn’t understand it. PREVALENCE = number of people with a condition at a point in time: new AND previously diagnosed. This graph shows more people survive & live with cancer. Because of: science. It's important to be data driven. 1/

Remember when Joe Rogan had RFK Jr on and he falsely claimed that vaccines cause autism? Yeah, and he makes millions of dollars off that lie. Watch this excerpt from my segment of @wired.com Pseudoscience Support ⬇️ youtu.be/ZZCutMBhjpg?...

Hey Gavin Newsom: maybe stop letting the EWG lobby you. You’re wildly out of touch with science. And you’ve been parroting chemophobia about food dyes for too long while ignoring actual factors that impact food & nutrition. You selectively reject science, and it is NOT helping people. 1/

The Republican Party is a Russian nesting doll of rapists.

Organic farming uses LOTS of pesticides. Many of them are less effective and need to be used in higher quantities and applied more frequently. Many are not safer for humans either. Organic is LITERALLY a 30-yr old marketing ploy made by lobbyists.

Because claims RFK Jr. made on Mikhaila Peterson’s podcast are SO egregiously false on multiple levels, I dissected it. Key points: Peanut oil isn’t a vaccine excipient. Aluminum is not allergenic. How aluminum adjuvants work is VASTLY different than food allergy immunology. 1/

“The rich people are gonna learn from this and maybe even change their ways”. Honeychild, give me your hand. The only thing they are going to learn is to book future investor meetings in buildings with helicopter landing pads. The oligarchs will stop using sidewalks before they stop abusing us.

I am watching with grave concern over the actions of the South Korean president to declare martial law, all because the opposition has blocked his agenda and impeached his cabinet. Democracy is under assault across much of the world. We must be on highest guard here as well as Trump takes office.

Someone in my comments said, "Tr*mpers voted for Cruella De Vil, and they're gonna wonder where all the puppies went." And I can't stop thinking about how MAGAts are not gonna understand cause and effect here at all.

When fascism arrives in America it won’t know how to spell it.

Cervical cancer mortality decreased 15.2% per year from 2013-2015 to 2019-2021, suggesting HPV vaccination has affected the sequential decline in HPV infection prevalence, cervical cancer incidence, and cervical cancer mortality. Read the research letter: ja.ma/4185MWu

They have a point.

Don’t mess with Gen Z.

Trump thinks he just invented DARE

Show me a picture on your phone that has your energy that isn’t a selfie.

Sex offenders in our White House appointing sex offenders as Attorney General should NEVER be normalized. Never stop calling this out.

This…this is it. In a nutshell, yes.

Don't think for one second we don't see who has the strength of their convictions vs who is overtly complicit or gives tacit approval to the horrors of this administration (the last two are the same thing).

Ways to keep your immune system and yourself healthy that ARE science-based: Vaccines Routine moderate exercise Healthy & diverse diet Good sleep Reduce stress Limit alcohol, tobacco, smoking Good hygiene (personal, sex, food, oral) Healthy weight for you 1/

To control fungal pathogens on crops, farmers use fungicides. For blueberries 🫐 Organic farming uses copper sulfate, at 1-4 lbs per acre. The LD50 (50% lethal dose) is 300 mg/kg body weight Conventional farming uses mancozeb, 1.5-3 lbs/acre. The LD50 is 8,000 mg/kg. 1/
