If you took $1 billion and gave it to the endowment of a different small college each day, they could each provide a free college education to several hundred students per year in perpetuity. Instead we are using that money to bomb schools and kill students in Iran, for no clearly stated purpose.

My university received a few years ago the promise of the largest single gift to a public university in U.S. history. It was equivalent to 12 hours of bombing Iran.

Spent four hours in the ER with my daughter (she's fine!) and overheard the patient on the other side of the little curtain -- a college student freaking out because she has midterms and can't waste time getting treated.

Students, take care of yourself. I promise you, your profs will understand.

The reason we're here is that tens of millions of people will punch a hole in a wall if they hear someone used food stamps to buy soda but they're fine if the right-wing podcaster turned fbi director uses his taxpayer funded private jet to go party whenever he feels like it bsky.app/profile/thed...

Greenland has universal health care and far higher standards of healthcare than are found in Louisiana and most of the US. In the meantime, Trump has blocked funding of the ACA, meaning that tens of millions of Americans are about to lose their healthcare coverage.

The Scientists Groveling to Trump Are Kidding Themselves The government has pulled back from massive cuts to the NIH, but it’s still destroying scientific research. So why are some groups appeasing the president?

Thanking Donald Trump for signing the budget bill, which spared NIH from the knife was unseemly and unnecessary. In fact, the destruction of American science is gathering steam under this administration and appeasement won't help. My latest for @thenation.com. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Why rejecting the endangerment finding also rejects climate science
Climate denial as US policy is β€˜chilling,’ scientists say, but there’s still more that science can do

Why rejecting the endangerment finding also rejects climate science Climate denial as US policy is β€˜chilling,’ scientists say, but there’s still more that science can do

Scientists and policy experts say that by revoking the endangerment finding, the Donald J. Trump administration has reached a dangerous milestone in dismissing, ignoring, or directly contradicting scientific information in its policy decisions. cen.acs.org/policy/chemi...

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

Renee Nicole Good’s last words β€œI’m not even mad at you dude”

Alex Pretti’s last words: β€œAre you ok?”

They want you to believe these helpers were terrorists.

What did ICE say? β€œF*cking b*tch” and β€œcool it’s like call of duty”

Down the road? They're already saying it didn't happen. The murder of Renee Good, the murder of Alex Pretti. And, of course, the January 6 riot. And it's not just "some bastard"; it's the people controlling the executive branch of the US government and their GOP comrades in Congress.
