Trump is doing exactly what he was elected to do when he tanks the economy, causes epidemics, cuts Medicaid, destroys freedom of the press, and facilitates genocide in Ukraine and Gaza.

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns. 100% of his salary is paid by WA state. Elon fired him. Share his story.

How many federal workers would DOGE need to fire to make up for Musk not paying his fair share of taxes? Answer: 677,000. That's 44% of the entire non-DoD federal workforce. Again, this power grab is not about the budget. It’s about politics.

16 free states in the 1850s—states that drew a line against slavery while the country teetered on the edge. Back then, the fight was against enslavers, and the Republican Party led the charge. Now—that same party defends oppression, bans diversity and history that makes them feel uncomfortable.

Nice to know that the US is now provoking the Canadians to sing their national anthem (in ENGLISH, in MONTREAL) with the same heart and fervor with which the Nazis caused Captain Von Trapp to sing "Edelweiss." And we said nothing good would come of a second Trump administration.

When I heard Musk say this on Tuesday, my assumption was that it was a programming issue. Because I can code and have written to databases and because I am familiar with other examples of default values being misinterpreted. Yet somehow Musk isn't.

Executive wants to frame the NIH indirects cut as $4B in savings. But given that NIH returns $2.5 on every $1 investment, this would actually cost US economy a net $6 BILLION (per year!). Not to mention the human costs of wrecking education and research sectors and the communities they serve.

Hardly new info, but BSky should know: Warsaw's water quality is monitored by eight clams with magnets attached to their shells. If contamination in the water causes the clams to close, the magnets trigger an alarm and shut off the city's water supply. Thank you, little guardian molluscs. 🧪🌏🚰

When the Tea Party took over they lost all of the people who understood that the culture war complaints were fake, made up to keep people angry. Now the angry people are in charge and think they're real, and they're going to be more mad when they don't find the people who they were complaining about

Elon Musk has barged into DOL, which also oversees the Bureau of Labor Statistics—that's a huge deal. He could manipulate quarterly job numbers and much more. We are talking about MARKET MOVING INFORMATION! Do employers want Musk to have access to any of their confidential data?

I wonder if we should be thinking of Musk's seizing of Treasury as an historic cyber-security breach that endangers the entire US and global financial system. Every government and financial institution in the world should be demanding that Treasury arrest the hackers, restore integrity of US govt.
