Wash Post's ed board bemoans that researchers are moving abroad as science comes under attack -- but as @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social points out, WaPo and NYT ed boards were part of the tide that promoted anti-science conspiracy theories and threw scientists under the bus.

To everyone not understanding what’s happening in Georgia: we have one of the youngest populations in the country. We’re a majority-minority state. It’s time we campaigned like it.

Zohran Mamdani has waded into a bitter and long-running fight over New York City housing, saying that if he is elected mayor, he would turn a city-owned garden in Lower Manhattan into affordable housing.

‪I would like to wish the Elizabeth Street Garden a very pleasant “you are going to become affordable housing.”‬

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social GET HHH ON THE PHONE NOW!!!

Every time she comes up, I remind you all that Pamela Paul killed a pro trans paragraph in a review I wrote for the New York Times, lied about it in the press, then when I confronted her with receipts, said “Let’s keep this to ourselves.”

if you didn't follow the VA governor race you didn't know that Earle-Sears ran like a billion anti-trans campaign ads and Spanberger didn't flinch or pull a Newsom.

going all-in against trans people is a losing move, especially when the federal government has made harming and killing us a priority.

A massive result: Maine voters have rejected Question 1, a ballot measure that would have restricted mail voting and put into place strict new voter ID requirements. This outcome was no sure thing heading into tonight. The measure’s failure preserves current voter access in Maine, as 2026 looms.

absolute bloodbath for Republicans. One easy takeaway: maybe don't send Virginia specifically sliding towards a recession if you're hoping to win there

I don’t get it, Mamdani didn’t go on Rogan or post any solo work out videos that I could find, he just walked around town telling voters about his ideas to help them

you may think you’re a hater, but most of you (and this includes me) would have to think long and hard about turning down ten fucking mil to pursue your lifelong dream of hating

i don’t like him, but, man, turning down $10M in favor of haterdom is an all-time, world-class, heavyweight champion hater move

It turns out listening to people, running on popular things people want, and not being an evil ghoul can have you defeat both parties throwing all they can at one candidate to defeat you.

It took the ADL like four days to respond to Nick Fuentes breaking into the mainstream last week

Putting away cynicism for the night, as a treat

It says a lot that the former Democrat's mayoral campaign was a lot more Islamophobic and racist than the GOP candidate's

‘We Will Beat These Monsters’: Lindsey Boylan Reacts to Cuomo’s Defeat The former Cuomo aide was the first of eleven women to publicly denounce the disgraced governor for sexual harassment.

“I hope every woman who has ever faced an abuser like Cuomo knows she doesn’t have to be ashamed, she doesn’t have to hide. Because we will beat these monsters. New Yorkers said “no more” to Andrew Cuomo, and that is just remarkable.” indypendent.org/2025/07/we-w...

Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

If you said you were going to leave NYC if Mamdani won, flights need to be booked tonight! Throw your pager out the window. Tell MCI to cut the phone poles. Break your lease so you can move.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social is on @cnn.com congratulating Dems—without mentioning @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social until pressed.

As a colleague said today, those opposing this president’s anti-democratic moves should also protest an “opposition” that refuses to be a real opposition party.

I agree.

YESSSSSSSSS
