You ever sit back and just think about what an enormous impact puppets have had on your life? It’s pretty wild if you really give it some thought.

Me when I saw Pedro Pascal during the halftime show

Bad Bunny’s performance began in the plantation, featured broken electric poles, and ended by centering a hemispheric understanding of “América”—among many other things—and some Anglo journalists are like “his performance wasn’t political.”

This is why we need to be telling our stories.

SCIENCE IS UNDER CENSORSHIP. “WOMEN” “VACCINE” “EQUITY” “ADDICTION” FROM PEN AMERICA’S LIST OF WORDS BANNED FROM FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WORK.

Science cannot thrive when censorship shuts down research. Shutting down research doesn't make people healthy. Help us impeach & #RemoveRFKJr by visiting standupforscience.net/impeach-rfkjr .

Our founders, though deeply flawed, understood that democracy requires an informed citizenry and a government accountable to it people. That’s why the press is the only profession protected by the Constitution. It’s also why autocrats and oligarchs seek to control and destroy it.

The arrests of Don Lemon, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lundy are unacceptable and a clear violation of the Constitution.

United States Completes WHO Withdrawal WASHINGTON —  January 22, 2026 — The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the U.S. Department of State today announced the United States’ completion of its withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO) due to the organization's mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic that arose out of Wuhan, China, its failure to adopt urgently needed reforms, and its inability to demonstrate independence from the inappropriate political influence of WHO member states.

The United States has officially withdrawn from the World Health Organization.

This is a shameful move that puts both Americans and people all over the world at greater risk from disease outbreaks, which require international collaboration to contain.

Thanks @abctnow.bsky.social for the opportunity to discuss the state of the science and emerging research on gender-affirming medical care for trans youth!
