After our call to action Saturday morning, it made us smile how many people texted their friends, “Why are you at the Florida training airport?” only to get, “Sorry, I don’t talk about fight club,” in response.

I’m Indigenous. My people were colonized, brutalized, and brainwashed. And still—I believe in the good immigrants bring to this country. The benefits outweigh the harms. We cannot silo or isolate. We must adapt, evolve, live, teach, and love. That’s how we survive. That’s how we thrive. 🥳 🇨🇦 ❤️ 🍁

Some thoughts on the Bethesda Declaration: The people who signed their names to this have have mostly been at the NIH for years, quietly doing the grunt work that has kept biomedical science moving forward. They do it because they believe in the NIH’s mission.

Some badass good news out of L.A.: ICE tried to set up shop in a Pasadena hotel—thought they’d operate in the shadows. Pasadena wasn’t having it. Locals showed up loud and relentless, protesting all day. Result? The hotel booted ICE. No HQ. No silence. No surrender. 👏🏽

Scores of staffers at the White House National Security Council have been abruptly dismissed as part of a sweeping overhaul that slashes the staff from over 300 to just 50. The move shifts the NSC’s role from policymaking to simply carrying out the president’s directives.

“She Blinded Me With Science” peaks at #5 today in 1983 — a song for which Thomas Dolby, an aspiring filmmaker, pitched the video before writing the actual song. “I showed [the label] the storyboard .. They said, ‘But when can we hear the SONG?’ I said, ‘Oh, I'll bring it on Monday morning.’” 😆

Trump is trying to fire three members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission the agency that ensures products like cribs, toys, and electronics are safe. The removals are illegal and undermine the commission’s independence. But since when has the Trump admin cared about following the law?

Oh now he tells y’all?? After spreading lies and conspiracy theories, RFK Jr. says don’t listen to his advice—as head of HHS. Sir, we already knew. We were just waiting on you to admit you’re unqualified.
