Even though I’m in a non- academic hospital research setting, I receive the weekly NIH updates. Week after week my heart sinks seeing β€œnone” under the section for funding opportunities. Finally one item on the list last week - research on school lunches. Great, but driven by political rhetoric.

Signed! In my 25+ years of clinical research experience, I have never seen science under attack in this way. Thank you for standing up!

This tiny device can shrink dangerous blood clots. It’s called the β€˜milli-spinner’ and its invention was partly an accident…

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence.

They are in charge.

The Polish foreign minister, a writer and journalist who covered the Soviet war in Afghanistan in the 1980s, clearly knows a thing or two about a patiently-timed response.

What Vladimir Putin doesn't realize is that if it weren't for me, lots of really bad things would have already happened to Russia, and I mean REALLY BAD. He's playing with fire!

Trump has admitted he has been protecting Putin.

April 28, 2025: Migrants are making SOS signs out of their bodies so drones can see them at our country's concentration camps.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

El Salvador is a very small impoverished country that consistently produces refugees and organized crime, Bukele is a very wealthy man that’s pushed for cryptocurrency. Bought over 34 new luxury properties. Crypto is favoured by organized crime to launder money. You do the math.

If you don’t think that at some point he’s going to show more interest in the 5,044 nuclear weapons he controls, you’re as deluded as the people who thought he’d never tank the stock market and the economy.

I noticed that most (if not all) of the letters Senator Booker read from his constituents were actual letters, not emails, not things sent by a contact form.

Use snail mail, folks.

Buy stamps. Write letters. Make it personal!

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary.

I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.
