Trond Solberg (trond_solberg71) Hi. :) Norwegian here. A big misconception about social democracy is that everyone makes the same money, and that you can't get rich. But Norway has wealthy people, entrepreneurs, successful CEOs. The difference is that a janitor can afford healthcare. A teacher can afford a home. And the wealthy still live in a society that works. Social democracy doesn't put a ceiling on wealth. It raises the floor. Follow for more glimpses into life in a social democracy, where dignity is not a privilege.

Put this on your immigration radar: ICE now has more than a billion dollars for state and local police everywhere - Poynter The new federal spending surge is reshaping local policing, pushing state and local police deeper into immigration enforcement

For the first time, dollars are flowing to local police through ICE's task force program. Minimally $2.3 billion in the broader pipeline. Think that might affect local policing priorities? Think maybe this is worth a few questions for your friendly neighborhood LEA? www.poynter.org/reporting-ed...

“All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting w/ Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach/remove Trump—3 House & 20 Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public & end all of this.” @hcrichardson.bsky.social

This line graph illustrates the percentage change in agency staff levels from the previous year for nine major U.S. federal scientific and health organizations between the fiscal years 2016 and 2025. The agencies tracked include the CDC, Department of Energy, EPA, FDA, NASA, NIH, NIST, NOAA, and NSF. For the majority of the timeline between 2016 and 2023, the agencies show relatively stable fluctuations, generally staying within a range of +5% to -5% change per year. However, there is a dramatic and uniform plummet starting in the 2024–25 period. Every agency depicted shows a sharp downward trajectory, with staffing losses ranging from approximately -15% to over -25%. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) shows the most significant decline, dropping to roughly -26%, while the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) shows the least severe but still substantial drop at approximately -15%.

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.
