Olivia Troye slams Trump's Ukraine policy as killing innocent people and Rep. Jake Auchincloss (D-MA) talks about how Democrats need to drill down on economic issues. Plus Jim discusses former NIH Director, Dr. Francis Collins' message of "do no harm" when it comes to layoffs impacting scientists. Jim sa Dr. Collins playing guitar at protest on National Mall.

Really enjoyed my conversations with @repauchincloss.bsky.social (keep an eye on him) and the brave, super smart @oliviaoftroye.com on Measles, Musk and the madness of Trump’s Ukraine policy. open.substack.com/pub/jimacost...

If β€œcold-blooded” was a human…

Nothing screams β€œpatriotism” like cosplaying as ICE to terrorize immigrants. It’s pure cruelty, and CPAC is out here cheering for harassment like it’s a game.

F*ck this dude!!!

A Defender from Azov Brigade sustained a severe shrapnel wound to the neck and lost a significant amount of blood.

The situation was critical and there was no chance to evacuate him. So doctors had to think on the spot: they sent blood to the Defender via a drone.

Dear @cnn.com,

The judge did not β€œvacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Donald Trump is someone’s useful idiot…bought and payed for. He is a bull in a china shop, quickly dismantling everything the United States has ever stood for. We all must follow the bread crumbs to find out who his handlers are.

This. Also. @aoc.bsky.social @ericswalwell.bsky.social et al , can you do what ever you guys do in the House to let Musk, Trump and everyone know that the UCFE, which funds unemployment benefits , is in the Dept of Labor. If these funds are cut, the cost will fall on the states.

On Ukraine, Europe must step into the void | Virgin

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.
