Pardon me if I delay celebrating this vile cretin losing until those poor Sandy Hook families he victimized for cheap publicity see all of the cash. I don't trust him for a second.

Sen. Padilla's Prop 50 ad is very effective. They used the footage of him being shoved to the ground and cuffed. I swear, my blood pressure goes through the roof each time I see it.

Thank you, @padilla.senate.gov, for this ad. #Yeson50

An extraordinary new policy from the Defense Department that equates basic reporting methods to criminal activity has prompted a revolt among Pentagon journalists that could leave the nation's largest agency and the world's largest military without a press corps.

'Without precedent': Virtually all news outlets reject restrictive Pentagon press policy

The policy would force news organizations to refrain from publishing material not approved by the military. Media lawyers say it violates the 1st Amendment.

As the night sky becomes less visible (pollution, ppl head down in phones etc), will it get harder to interest ppl in astronomy, satellites & space science? I was talking to space industry types last night & they feel public apathy. But is that a surprise when ppl can’t/don’t see the sky?

Here is the television ad that Premier Ford says his government has spent $75 million taxpayer dollars on. It features a Ronald Reagan 1987 radio address about the perils of tariffs and rejecting protectionism. It will air on most major US television networks. #cdnpoli

Parnas: A lot of people are saying this idea that, well, Graham Platner hasn’t won statewide, and Janet Mills has.

Platner: We have a number of excellent senators who had never run for office or won a statewide race before.

That’s an argument the establishment makes to protect itself

Dear funding agencies,

I know we all want to discover the wonder drug that will cure the horrible diseases, but to do that, we need to invest in basic, unsexy, foundational research on how the systems work. Funding can’t all be drug development.

Sincerely,
Looking for basic research grants.
