This is why "diversity of thought" is a dead end. Equating anti-science quacks with professional scientists is how you end up putting worm-for-brains RFK in charge of spreading measles to Texas families.

Scientific consensus is good, actually.

The President of the United States is vowing to disappear students from college campuses who say things the government doesn't like.

There are not enough alarms for this.

Exclusive: Trump plans to revoke legal status of Ukrainians who fled to US, sources say U.S. President Donald Trump's administration is planning to revoke temporary legal status for some 240,000 Ukrainians who fled the conflict with Russia, a senior Trump official and three sources familiar with the matter said, potentially putting them on a fast-track to deportation.

This is a profoundly evil betrayal and a direct reflection of Trump's soulβ€”a disgusting, small, and shameful ghoul who gets off on harming the powerless.

The DOGE Takeover Is Worse Than You Think What’s happening to the US government right now is bad. What comes next is worse.

Okay... we feel like we say this every week but *a lot* of stuff happened. Let's break it down, starting with @brbarrett.bsky.social on why the DOGE takeover is worse than you think... (sorry, but you gotta read this one.)

Everyone knows what happened here. Trump can only exist around people he can causally humiliate. Guys lie JD and Rubio. He wanted to do a ritual humiliation of Zelensky and Ukraine but Zelensky wouldn’t accept that and so Trump reacted like a stung bitch.

Y'all are gonna want to check out this new research helping make sense of the incredibly powerful draw of Right-Wing news. If I had to choose 1 impediment to finding our way thru all of this *waves hands*, it's the RW media ecosystem.

The GOP claims slashing $880 billion from Medicaid is about eliminating "waste, fraud, & abuse.”

That's a smokescreen. The β€œfraud” amounts to less than 1/10th of 1%, not even close to $880 billion.

Their actual plan slashes coverage for millions & leaves families without care. We won’t be fooled.

With another set of news headlines about political elites using β€œβ€β€Roman salutes””” I just want to note that the Nazi salute means β€œI want to murder your family” and the n-word means β€œI want to lynch you.” That’s what they mean, they make me righteously angry, and I won’t let anybody minimize them.
