As I've always said, I will not support a government funding bill that continues to raise our costs, jeopardizes our health care, and hurts the people of my state.

A carefully worded message, attributed to Jane Goodall, that's helping me orient right now: "focus on the present and make choices today whose impact will build over time."

I encourage everyone to consider attending one of the many demonstrations planned for tomorrow across the country.

Show up. Demand accountability. Peacefully protest.

House Republicans had another opportunity to remove the Medicaid and SNAP cuts from Trump’s Tax Scam.

And once again, they didn’t. The GOP is making changes to the bill to ensure it will pass and they get to take away more Americans’ healthcare — because the cruelty is the point.

These are the employees of NASA/GISS on the day Mr. Trump spitefully evicted the whole institute from its offices, leased from Columbia University, above an iconic corner diner.

Musk is dismantling a small but important independent agency that supports economic development in poor but stable nations. Employees at the Millennium Challenge Corporation were informed that they would be offered early retirement or deferred resignation following visits from Musk’s staffers.

1/4 Well @deevybee.bsky.social @scurry.bsky.social @michaelemann.bsky.social @drshepherd2013.bsky.social I just heard back from the US National Academy of Engineering (NAE) that they will do nothing about my code-of-conduct complaint against Elon Musk. Extremely disappointing and yet unsurprising.😡

Video of a student in my town who wrote a political op-ed being grabbed off the street by government agents bsky.app/profile/pale...
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.
