Usefully sober fact sheet on Ukraine. Please share with those who need it. understandingwar.org/backgrounder...

This is real. And I have never seen the competence, morals, standards and communication strategy of any government collapse so fast.

I was just added to someone’s list called “engaged scientists in climate change” and for a minute, I misread it as “enraged scientists in climate change” … which would probably be 100% accurate …

C-PAC is a cult gathering, not a convention! This “Third Term Project” poster at CPAC is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. The same people who were screaming about “the deep state” are now openly fantasizing about a dictator-for-life.

Says the guy who won't even respond to the mothers of his own children

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

I'm dumb. I can't figure out how to end world hunger. But I do promise that I will continue to change healthcare in this country and make it more affordable, possibly setting a path towards Universal Healthcare.

Thousands protest in London ahead of third anniversary of Ukraine war Several Labour politicians spoke at the rally, including Emily Thornberry, who said Britain needed to stand "visibly and unwaveringly" with Ukraine news.sky.com/story/thousa...

83% of Americans disapprove of King Donold’s pardoning his Jan. 6 goon squad, and now his poll numbers are falling faster than a gold-plated toilet in a hurricane. SMITE!

Prediction: the Nаzi salute will become common within 2 years. RWers will half-аss it for plausible deniability, memeify the backlash, then start fully doing it "as a joke" "to troll the libs" "for being hysterical enough to think we were doing it in the first place"

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

45% of all mobile users in the UK are on Apple. That's tens of millions of people that have now had their online security put at risk by Labour. Experts are aghast.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Current mood

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

BREAKING: California lawmakers are introducing a climate change Superfund bill today, which would require major oil and gas companies to pay to mitigate global warming impacts. open.substack.com/pub/landmark...

More info in this latest article, although to be clear what has been terminated is the IPCC Working Group 3 technical support unit and fed travel to next weeks’s meeting where the report chapter outlines are to be approved, after which authors will be solicited.

Sharing more townhall videos today because they’re giving me hope. THIS is good trouble! Who is this man? I want to shake his hand and buy him a drink.

He nails it.

What's the difference between firing someone "for DEI" and firing them because they are Black?

Worst. Episode. EVER.

“The US is now the least reliable partner in NATO.” #Ukraine #Nato #Scotland

My millennial daughter sent me this from a South African friend on Facebook. Worth remembering, every day. 🦋🌿✨❤️

Peaceful protest is a fundamental democratic right which must be defended The decision in @libertyhq.bsky.social’s important case will affect all of us & is due any time now. This is why I’m standing shoulder to shoulder with them and I hope you will too youtu.be/qk5aiRXRuU0?...

The 'find out' phase is here.

In November, @alanhalaly.bsky.social profiled Riley Rackliffe, an NPS aquatic ecologist, whose job included monitoring Nevada's Lake Mohave for toxic algae blooms. (you can guess where this story is going...) @altnps.bsky.social

Canada wins…

John Fetterman’s staff are leaving him in droves and there are awful rumors about how he treats them. Are we sure he’s not just three Kyrsten Sinemas sitting on each other’s shoulders in a hoodie? Our latest:

Presumably the BBC journalist (who was it? The notoriously sloppy Ms Kuenssberg?) has now lost access to any government sources. www.thewestmorlandgazette.co.uk/news/2495125...

Around 63% of Ukrainians approve of Volodymyr Zelensky's actions as a president, according to a survey carried out by the Identity and Borders in Flux The poll was published shortly after President Trump alleged that Zelensky holds a "4% approval rating” kyivindependent.com/63-of-ukrain...

Trump is firing federal workers who are not funded by taxpayers www.aol.com/trump-firing...

The Radicalisation Of Elon Musk continues to entertain. Less "first person on Mars!", more "first man to buy a thing and have it fuck around and brainwash him" He's like the dude off Lawnmower Man after he's gone fuckin' nutbar.

Team Canada wins in overtime, and l’ve never been delighted with a hockey win before, ever.

Powerful. Tomorrow’s front page of the most influential weekly publication in Germany. “BETRAYED. First Zelensky, Soon Us? The radical departure of the US from its allies.”

Has Clacton been twinned with Moscow yet?

When even the New York Post has to publish this, you know you fucked up.

They just now noticed?

Today’s cover of the Murdoch-owned New York Post

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

resonates.
