Firings are happening right now at the National Science Foundation. Essential staff are being cut. This isn’t about the budget. If it was, they’d be going after the military (17%) or state appropriations (38%). NSF is 0.7% of the federal budget. All federal employees make up only 4% of the budget.

Despite endless stories that suggest the opposite, unemployment has stayed steady - & historically low at 4.4% The panic about too many people & too many of them being on benefits is misplaced. The problem is the wealth we all create goes only to the rich #r4today

The most unpatriotic members of any society are the far right. They will always align with foreign interests against the interests of their own nations. They will always undermine national institutions and national values in pursuit of their own interests. When they pose as patriots, they lie.

Not only is beneficial alignment the right thing to do, for growth. It is also the most popular option with voters. "41% say the UK should be more closely aligned with the EU. 20% say less closely aligned." One of the easiest political choices a gov't can be asked to make. ~AA

I saw the Kanye ad yesterday (it aired in the Philly market, where we were) but didn't click on the link. Today I found out it went to a website selling swastika T-shirts. This was a Superbowl ad. And it was to a website selling swastika T-shirts. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

As being “free to make our own trade deals” has delivered the square root of jack shit and, as Brexiters still can’t tell us what EU regulations they want to scrap, closer alignment with the EU should be a no-brainer. Great work @bestforbritain.bsky.social www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Covid was the worst pandemic in 100 years. Johnson made so many mistakes that UK had the wort economic hit and the highest death toll in Europe. 713,000 more people are now economically inactive than before it. Yet Kendall chooses to repeat anecdotal evidence here that young ill people are lazy.

Do you think we'll ever have a sensible, mature and informed debate about immigration and the real issues at stake? All we have now is arguments and counter-arguments over how many have been deported, treating human beings like runs on a cricket scoreboard.

Time to turn off the taps. Not a single bottle of American wine, beer or bourbon should be sold anywhere in Canada. From here on in I will only drink "freedom" wines from Canada, France or Spain. As for the beer? It's shit anyways. True. North. Strong. Free. @strongasfuck

What TF is the “right starting point”? 11% think Brexit is a success. Are you waiting until it’s nobody? Until our young people have even less than they have now? FFS Labour. No one will thank you for pandering to the Daily Mail. And certainly not the Daily Mail. Do right by the rest of us.

We all knew something like this had happened: Corbyn working with Tory Brexiters to back the Withdrawal Agreement, on a three line whip, with no amendments. ... But to see it here in black and white still makes me furious! #LexitLiars 😡
