I support freedom: of choice; of belief; of speech; of love; of animal rights (incl. humans); of science; of education. Facts matter. Anti-fascist. Pro-union. Free Palestine. I’m not a fan of the current timeline…except for the Board Games…& Star Trek.

the corollary to the absolutely true “one day, everyone will always have been against this” is that they’ll also never truly forgive you for being loud and right long before they were, unless you play along and pretend for them

Without federal funding, public media — and the truth-telling, community-connecting role it plays — is at risk.

Local stations may vanish. Millions could lose trusted news and vital information. If you are ready to join the fight for journalism, donate now: n.pr/458sOhq

71% of Americans can't locate the Pacific Ocean on a map.
33% don't believe in evolution.
26% believe the sun revolves around the Earth.
40% don’t know what Auschwitz was.
33% can't name any branch of government.
54% read below a 6th grade level.
But by all means, eliminate the Dept of Education.

The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich.

It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class.

You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense — yet that's what this GOP budget is all about.

Protect AOC at all costs.
In 80 seconds, AOC has completely dismantled the #BigUglyBill.

Dems should turn this into a prime time campaign ad NOW.

“This Bill is a deal with the devil”💥

It's been 3 years since Dobbs, the decision that allowed states to ban abortion.

Women have died, hospitals have shuttered, and millions of Americans now live in areas where they can face jail time for lifesaving medical care.

They were supposed to be deporting “gang members” and “criminals.”

So far, they have kidnapped people working their day jobs and folks lawfully showing up for their immigration court appearances…

It was always a lie.

I’m absolutely stunned by this. I’m not surprised, just stunned by how quickly the US is failing and the number of people willing to help tear it apart.
Today’s unsigned, unexplained #SCOTUS ruling clearing the way for removals of migrants to third countries without any additional process is a disaster—not just on the merits, but because of the government misbehavior that it not only refuses to punish, but effectively rewards.

Me, via “One First”:
161. The Court's Disastrous Ruling in the Third-Country Removal Case
The majority did not just greenlight an especially odious immigration policy without any explanation; it did so in a case in which the government defied the district court—twice—with no consequence.

For those who asked: this article is now temporarily open access for everyone.
My latest for American Scientist Magazine helps give scientists the tools to fight back against politicized charges that our research is silly or pointless- tools that will work whether you’re asked “why are we funding this” from your asshole uncle at Thanksgiving or an asshole US Senator.

“Why Are We Funding This?”
Long-standing myths about “silly science” have contributed to the reckless slashing of government-supported research.

Only problem is that the US created the 1st & 3rd monsters and initially refused refugees from the middle one.
