US brain drain: Nature’s guide to the initiatives drawing scientists abroad In response to US turmoil, premier establishments such as the European Research Council have sweetened incentives to attract talent.

I helped @nature.com put together a guide to the initiatives drawing U.S. scientists abroad as the Trump administration cuts research budgets and science agencies. The trend has sparked debate: Is luring talent away the best way to support global science? www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Thanks to my friend Harriet for pointing out that the women went to Christ's tomb and saw he was not there, the angels showed up to describe what happened, & the women then told the apostles, who dismissed them. A Biblical account of women not being believed.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

We need a name for this person. The vice provost for authoritarian compliance?

Both domestic and international news outlets are not telling you about the American pushback.

For example, did you hear about the 15k people who just came to the "Fight Oligarchy and Authoritarianism" rally with Bernie and AOC in Arizona?

Unheard of outside of campaign seasons.

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget.

Really think about how twisted this all is.

1/3 - Dans tout ce f**king délire anti-EDI, les trumpistes - et leurs ami-es - s'attaquent à des pans entiers de mesures gagnées de haute lutte, au cours des dernières décennies, pour protéger les groupes vulnérables/minoritaires (incluant les femmes).

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%. 

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?
