Nearly 800,000 children depend on Head Start—and Trump just slashed the workforce supporting them. No plan. No input. Just damage.

I’m leading the call to immediately reinstate these critical employees and protect the programs that families and children rely on.

Can we demand new elections ?
Can we expect the military to step in and remove him ?
Can we stage a public revolt ?
Can we impeach him ?

What does it take to remove a treasonous administration ?

When is enough enough ?

Putin invaded Ukraine in 2022

Since then, Zelenskyy has bravely defended his country’s freedom

As Russia bombed schools and homes, tortured civilians and kidnapped thousands of Ukrainian children

Lectures from chicken hawk Trump and his feckless simp JD Vance are the least of Zelenskyy’s worries

We just watched Trump & Vance do Putin’s bidding in the Oval Office & it was horrific. Not even two months into this administration & it’s a disaster for the free world.

Dear World, (An Apology From Decent Americans) Dear World,

We're sorry to the leaders of the world, who instead of being met by level-headed, measured, intelligent dialogue, are now greeted with the incoherent rantings of a perpetually-furious man-child.

Layoffs hit federal climate, weather agency NOAA The cuts could affect NOAA's weather forecasts, climate research and other functions.

A source just told me over the phone that layoffs are happening right now at NOAA. Axios is also reporting this. www.axios.com/2025/02/27/l...

The Handbasket 100% independent journalism by Marisa Kabas

I'm writing you to let you know there will be no change in The Handbasket's opinions.

I am going to write every day in support and defense of two pillars: protecting marginalized people and telling billionaires to go fuck themselves.

I'm confident this is right for America.

While the #ialegis trying to pass anti-trans bills are entirely homogenous, the cross section of folks in the rotunda pushing back this week represents the future of #Iowa.

Bills like these are a choice to turn our backs on the future.

If you live in a Blue State, the most important thing you can do individually for America is get on your city council and focus entirely on building more housing. Many people in Red States will find their lives untenable very soon and need somewhere to flee to.

No need to apologize, everyone who can't be there appreciates the updates!

Happening now at the Iowa capitol... Protesting a bill that would strip trans people of their civil rights. Wish I could be there with you! 🏳️‍⚧️✊

I've heard from people on the ground that troopers started making arrests in the rotunda, any way to confirm?

Troopers negotiate with protesters in the hallway at the Iowa Capitol

I'm not sure what troopers have planned next. They've been talking and gesturing a LOT but they also haven't made any moves. #ialegis #iowa

In line to get into this subcommittee hearing. Hundreds in line behind me, we'll see if I can get in, otherwise I'll join everyone else in the rotunda. #ialegis #Iowa

Hello I would like millions of dollars of private funding to start a climate/energy justice social science think tank that also serves as a refuge for displaced federal workers to double as a brain drain prevention outfit so we can help rebuild a better country when this all comes crashing down, thx

I'll write that proposal with you 🙌

YouTube video by Brian Tyler Cohen FINALLY: Jamie Raskin with MUST-SEE plan to DEFEAT Trump & Elon

Everyone should watch @briantylercohen.bsky.social interview with @raskin.house.gov

I’m happy to say it already has 1m views! I wish other videos of members of congress went just as viral!

If you care about science & higher ed in America right now, your world has changed.

We have been forced into a battle we didn’t choose.

Whatever our titles, our jobs now also includes emergency response, psychological first aid, organizing & many other things we weren’t trained in

Opinion | American Science is Under Attack The Trump administration hobbles research and endangers the public health.

"Perhaps what’s most disheartening is what feels like the absence of widespread opposition to this unraveling."

Thank you for helping sound the alarm, Dr. Varmus.

Science Communication as a Moral Imperative We need to do a much better job of encouraging scientists to be stronger communicators, and share the wonders of science, and the important…

We need to see science as a social compact where it serves the larger world, not our own interests.

As a first step, scientists must communicate to the larger world much better.

I wrote an essay about this in 2016, which still holds today.

Trump's offshore wind freeze could cost the US thousands of jobs and billions in investment. An energy policy professor explains why the Northeast and California stand to lose the most from this setback: https://buff.ly/3Q5YFHg (Barbara Kates-Garnick, Tufts University) 🌎 #climatesky #greenpower

OPM employees are literally blocking the doors and begging for help from politicians and mainstream media. They are STILL there.

The corporate coup is global.

Trump's mad tariffs do not mark the end of neoliberalism or free trade or whatever you want to call it.

They mark the end game of what we have been fighting for decades: corporate rule.

They do not believe in the public. They believe in their wealth.

Elon Musk’s Team Now Has Full Access to Treasury’s Payments System

All of your most sensitive data and our country’s checkbook are in the hands of an unelected billionaire.

This is the most corrupt administration in history and it’s putting our economy & government in serious jeopardy.

It’s time to speak out and fight back.

Once again, a fundamental reason why so many academics despise Trump, Vance, Musk & company is that we’ve all had our share of The Guy Who Didn’t Do The Reading But Demands to Be Heard

‘Aliens’ and ‘animals’ – language of hate used by Trump and others can be part of a violent design Hateful language used to demonize particular groups of people had been used long before the era of Donald Trump, including by the Nazis.

Trump and his supporters often dehumanize #immigrants as “animals” or “aliens.” A human rights scholar warns that dismissing such rhetoric as bluster overlooks how words are a first step toward discriminatory and violent policies. https://buff.ly/4aEiUW8 (@niezen.bsky.social)
