I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

This brutality, and thuggery is horrific and un-American. How can we as a nation fail to make this center stage on all news outlets, and be fighting it with daily (not only planned) protests? Where is the decency we held dear? www.reddit.com/r/50501/comm...

“Official statistics, government statistics are a mirror that society holds up to itself,” Andreas Georgiou said.

“If society cannot see itself clearly, then it cannot identify its problems. If it cannot identify its problems, then it cannot find the right solutions.”

Breaking Down the Massive Cuts to Science Funding

Good reporting on how the administration is pretending to take the politics out of science while actually shoring up its own agenda (and dismantling a world-leading sector of discovery and innovation in the process)

First meeting of new CDC vaccine panel reveals policy chaos sown by RFK Jr Health secretary unilaterally appointed ACIP’s eight new members, several of whom are critical of immunizations

The newly remade CDC vaccine panel met today—without key experts, with little transparency, and with a chair who was dismissed from Harvard over anti-vax views.

The meeting continued the legacy of citing studies that do not exist.

We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Trump to pardon reality TV couple after daughter's Fox News interview - BBC News Julie and Todd Chrisley were convicted of fraud and tax evasion, but will be released after campaigning by their daughter Savannah.

This is just another example of how the current administration is undermining justice. These are not victims of political prosecution. They defrauded banks out of 36 million, they stole 500k from the government by not paying taxes. They were found guilty by a jury. If you are not mad, you should be

Website For MAGA-Friendly Businesses Backfires As People Use It For Boycotts Social media posts about PublicSquare have gone viral as Trump critics use it to find companies not to support – the opposite of what the site was set up for.

Something to think about

If you’re a Republican “appalled” at Trump’s Ukraine foolishness today, save it.

Your empty statements mean nothing.

You voted for this, celebrated this, and will do nothing to stop it. You cheered this on every step of the way. This is YOUR circus. Own it.

Kudos to @jpalfrey.bsky.social and the MacArthur Foundation for stepping up at this critical moment. Increasing foundation giving to fill the gap left by the broken promises and breached contracts of federal funding shows true leadership and compassion. #belovedcommunity

Zelensky is not a “perfect” president (no one is), but the fact that he has bravely stayed with his people during Russia’s full scale invasion & has been fighting for Ukraine’s freedom against all odds for 3 years deserves huge respect.

In addition, a fixed rate is meant to hurt high cost-of-living regions. The naïveté that highly qualified researchers will simply move to institutions in the countryside rather than work abroad where they will be respected is idiotic.

They are childishly attacking universities with this move. And yet its universities with their massive endowments are better positioned to weather these massive cuts, while private research organizations will be thrown under the bus.
