JOB: Democracy Docket is seeking a Reporter with strong news-gathering and writing skills and a passion for voting rights and democracy to join our News Team. ats.rippling.com/democracy-do...

Removing the words "climate crisis" and "climate science," from official government language does not do a thing to slow the consequences of the former. It's the Repubs who police language and engage in cancel culture.

Some coverage of yesterday's #StandUpForScience rally. insideclimatenews.org/news/0703202...

This would solve a LOT of problems.

Standing Up for Science in SF today. Great to be w this energized bunch of researchers, scientists, students, and others. Science makes America great!!

Given that everything FOTUS says is a lie and/or a projection, I think he might be planning to steal the gold at Fort Knox. πŸ€”

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside downβ€”the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

This pivotal moment from Lord of the Rings feels like right now. I'm writing/calling my representatives to give them courage to oppose. I'm collecting protest songs to sing. I'm going to start showing up as best I can.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

The waste is letting such deep knowledge and experience go so recklessly and abruptly, like this Channel Islands National Park marine scientist. www.instagram.com/p/DGRIKzqTK-...

COOL JOB ALERT: We're looking for a senior leader to take on Indivisible's media operations, particularly with experience in the non-mainstream media space (influencers, podcasts, etc). Only downside is you have to work with me. Please apply or tell people to apply! jobs.lever.co/indivisible/...

β€œthe United States is not a startup. The federal government exists to do all of the things that are definitionally not profitable, that serve the public good rather than protect investor profits. (The vast majority of startups also fail, something the United States cannot afford to do.)”

It seems clear that DOGE cuts are reckless, uninformed, and reveal the stunning incompetence of the dogies. It's austerity theater. My heart goes out to the dedicated federal works in the line of fire. www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

It's just so reckless! 😀

First nuclear weapons management, now this. No one - Democrat or Republican - voted for this kind of incompetence.

The Republicans' submission in Congress reminds me of an old movie - The Stepford Wives. A couple moves into a seemingly idyllic and exclusive neighborhood. But it's too perfect. Spoiler alert: The husband is finally willing to sacrifice his wife, whom he loves, in order to fit in and go along.

Dear federal scientists: If you have been affected by the probationary firings and would be willing to speak with Science, please reach out to me by email ([email protected]) or on Signal. We can guarantee annonymity.

I'm a reporter at the SF Chronicle hoping to speak with scientists who were impacted by the government firings. Specifically NOAA scientists, especially those in California. Open to hearing from you on the record, off the record or anonymously. email: [email protected] DMs open

Rep Jamie Raskin @raskin.house.gov laying it down. Musk must be stopped. Calling any republicans?? youtu.be/D0L6P3fM5-Y?...

Good to know. Spreading the word.

I appreciated @repcasar.bsky.social clear framing of the conflict of interest at the heart of the Musk/Doge infiltration. Fire Elon! youtu.be/ZRJjQCXXdlY?...

What can we do? @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social shares a bunch of ideas below!

I watched this live earlier. I feel heard, at last. Let's not stop exerting the power we have. www.youtube.com/live/xQL79UI...

Doing this with @indivisible.org tonight. www.youtube.com/watch?v=55yf...

What has our close, democratic ally Canada even tangentially done to deserve this? I thought tariffs had to have a valid economic purpose. Is this another instance of Trump smashing precedent, or is this move illegal?

It would be fantastic if major federal institutions would acknowledge that the executive branch cannot legally unilaterally cancel or redistribute congressionally appropriated funding on ideological grounds and thus they have no legal obligation to comply with such directives

I am super excited about becoming a winter intern at @mcecleanenergy.org !! While I've raised science awareness and literacy in my career as a science storyteller, I want to directly support a climate solution that will move the needle. I took my 1st step this week. πŸ’š #GreenEnergyTransition

Oh no!! Moss Landing 😲 www.sfgate.com/bayarea/arti...
