Never fear, you just blame the bad stuff on the spending part and credit the good stuff to the tax break part!

Wishing everyone a happy Fourth of July!

249 years since we declared independence from a king, the work of living up to our founding promise is more important than ever - and it calls on each of us to do what we can for our country.

Joseph Carens, a poli sci prof at Toronto, said that national borders are like feudalism β€” if you happen to be born into the manor (ie hold a β€˜good’ citizenship) the system seems right and proper to you, but there’s nothing you can say to the serf in the field to justify *their* lack of opportunity,

Masked men in U.S. Border Patrol vests take Santa Ana father after repeatedly hitting him In a graphic video that has since gone viral on social media, about seven or more masked men wearing U.S. Border Patrol vests are seen violently detaining a Santa Ana father before forcing him into…

KTLA - Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all US Marines, pepper-sprayed and punched in the face by alleged federal immigration officers while he was working as a landscaper at an IHOP. He was then forced into the back of an unmarked car in Santa Ana.

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.

This is part of why we need contingency plans. β€œThe NIH isn’t going to fund this research for a while so stop doing it” is extremely short-sighted and harmful. We need people to have more vision than that.

I’m no historian, but this all seems pretty relevant… #greenscreen #science #research #nejm #jama #lancet #nih #nsf #va #veteranshealth TikTok video by Dr. Arghavan Salles

The Tr*mp administration’s interference with publishing scientific research/opinions and the appointment of someone with no scientific knowledge or expertise to make public health decisions should remind us all of Lysenko, whose incompetence and pseudoscience led to millions of deaths.

So… am watching last of us. And I know it’s a zombie movie but as a surfer the scene where Ellie gets hit by a wave in Seattle and survives for more than 5 min in that water, it’s just so much more unbelievable than the zombies. It really is a black mark on the series πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

The Fight for Science Thoughts and Actions to Take From My Visit to Capitol Hill

I’m trying to organize support for cross campus solidarity initiatives to create a more united front against federal overreach into Unis. Is anyone else working on this?

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.

Trump says that any American who shows β€œdissension” against MAGA should be β€œimmediately ejected” from their member of Congress’ town halls.

This is fascism.
