"There is nothing which can better deserve your patronage than the promotion of science and literature. Knowledge is in every country the surest basis of public happiness."
George Washington, Jan. 8th, 1790
First Annual Address to Congress
With the State of the Union coming up, it's a good time to reiterate that US presidents have long understood the value of sound, stable, & evidence-based #SciencePolicy.
Science, medicine, & research are deeply woven in the fabric of the USโand central to its success over the last 250 yrs.

The US is not "America" -- It may be Amerika.
Trump is not the "Chosen One" -- unless the Devil chose him.
No one is safe as long as Trump and his gang hold power.
In Amerika, guns outnumber people, and "health care" has been replaced by "I don't care."

As you process the Epstein files, remember:
Palantir received early funding from Jeffrey Epstein.
It was also backed by the CIAโs venture arm, In-Q-Tel.
Then came the defense contracts.
Then mass data analytics at scale.
This isnโt separate stories.
Itโs one ecosystem: the Epstein network.

I really want people to think about this.
After all the insane lawsuits, all the threats, all the bullshit weve seen from this admin and the targets who kneeled in fear, an average Joe called the president a Pedophile protector to his face and didn't get touched. That's the Power of a union.

Neurodivergent parenting often feels like a built in contradiction. Weโre expected to raise the next generation of "functioning" adults while our own internal systems, autistic or ADHD, are frequently designed in direct opposition to the world weโre raising them in. 1/7
