Donald Trump is unfit to serve as the leader of the free world. That's why I have cosponsored H. Res. 939 Articles of Impeachment to remove him from office.

I defended my PhD 10 years ago today. That was the least remarkable thing that happened that day. Sharing something I wrote about it last year. Since then "the horrors persist but so do we." And with dignity.

This is just devastating for a field of work. Not only does this halt progress on advancing medical science, these are also people's livelihoods. It's really hard to encourage anyone to try to enter medical science when this is the fiscal reality.

Cars are a huge liability for neighborhoods. One car breaks down and chaos is unleashed for miles. Insanity.

If any news outlets are covering this and want to talk to a trans Genomics PhD who specialized in human genetics and the evolution of sex, please reach out to me This is complete nonsense scientifically. It's fascist eugenics, not biology Setting a horrifying precedent for genocide

A DOGE staffer assigned to the National Endowment for the Humanities to flag grants for "DEI" tries to explain what "DEI" is. This deposition is part of a lawsuit by the @acls1919.bsky.social, @historians.org and @modernlanguage.bsky.social.

I just left a concert fundraising for the National Immigrant Justice Center to head to Broadview. Here’s why:

"favorite unicorn" is a very weird framing this case. I've voted for plenty of Dems for president who I was so-so on. but Newsom is very explicitly talking about rolling back trans rights. I don't know who you are, but if Newsom was singling out *your rights* to roll back, would you vote for him?...

i know the situation in kansas right now is dangerous and terrifying. that said, i'm hoping to speak to someone who's had their license invalidated. i will do absolutely everything to protect your anonymity and maintain your safety. i can be reached securely via signal at marisakabas.04

Ending this operation is not enough. We need justice and accountability. That starts with independent investigations into the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, economic restitution for businesses impacted, abolishing ICE, and the impeachment of Kristi Noem.

Coming up on the 5 year anniversary of one of the most frustrating moments in politics I've ever witnessed. From 2021: www.politico.com/news/2021/02...

Sorry to be Radical Left but I don't think we should put people who haven't committed a crime, and aren't even accused of committing a crime, into any sort of "Detention"

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.” What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

Let's do this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtQ9...

This is how anti-vax activism works. To be clear, the fact that they need the US market is a problem. But the problem isn't vaccines, it's for-profit healthcare. The tragic part is they'll likely make more money from all the people who catch infectious diseases that turn into chronic diseases.

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives. We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process. This is one that stands out: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Throwback to the Xmas when I spoofed mobile game ads too accurately, and no one clicked on the video.

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:

🚨 Today, I formally introduced articles of impeachment against Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. RFK Jr. has turned his back on science and the safety of the American people. Michiganders cannot take another day of his chaos.

Strong floor, no ceiling is such a bad idea that even Adam Smith, the writer of how to capitalism, warned of the dangers of excessive wealth distorting an economy around it.

Will point out again that for $2 billion we could fund ~100 phase II clinical trials. mikethemadbiologist.com/2025/10/28/a...

My latest is about the latest revelations on the failed prosecution of Donald Trump, and why you should blame Merrick Garland more than the Supreme Court.

New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people www.404media.co/ice-and-cbp-...

Food bank director: “for every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There’s no way we can meet that gap.”

ProPublica did a big investigation into these questions. www.propublica.org/article/insi...

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

Imagine this shit in a crowded office. Or in a meeting. Or on a train.

kids teacher just sent this home as part of an assignment he's doing and i want to smash every computer at the school

“How can Portland POSSIBLY stand against the might of the federal government?!” “Let me introduce you to our frog.”

If you take the Trump/MAGA/GOP threat to US Constitutional democracy seriously—and I really think you should—then things getting worse faster, before Trump has consolidated authoritarian power, is beneficial, not detrimental. If Democrats don't fight now, they might never have another real chance.

Release the jobs report. And while you’re at it, release the Epstein files.

BREAKING: Governor Pritzker calls for the removal of Donald Trump as President by invoking the 25th amendment. EVERY governor should stand behind the Illinois governor. Governor Pritzker also cited health concerns for the president. He is clearly not well. youtu.be/Dt4mrxNWQWs?...

I just called Chuck Schumer’s office and, for the first time EVER, a person answered, who then politely entered my complaints into their call log. This tells me two things: 1) They’re not getting enough calls over there, and 2) If you want to yell at Schumer, today’s the day. (212) 486-4430

my full @rollingstone.com story on the likelihood democrats abandon trans people to fund the government unless they face a mass movement calling on them to hold the line cc @parkermolloy.com

the democrats need to let the government shut down happen. they cannot let donald trump pass the funding bill that ends federal funding to hospitals that give hormone replacement therapy

Trump threatens to shut down US government unless Democrats agree to ban all trans health care https://www.thepinknews.com/2025/09/29/trans-care-ban-government-shutdown/?utm_content=1759153201&utm_medium=social&utm_source=bluesky

For @truthout.org yesterday I wrote about how the government's lies about tylenol and autism reminds me a lot of the government's lies about trans people. truthout.org/articles/ant...

"And they are adamantly opposed to recognizing bad faith, so they let themselves be used, over and over, in an endless attempt to find reasonable common ground with political forces bent on division."

I can’t tell you how much good could be done right now by average citizens socially cold-shouldering anyone tangentially working for ICE.

Awful and dangerous to hear the Mayor echo the transphobic bigotry coming from the Trump administration. It's completely at odds with the values of our city and another reason why his single, disgraced term in office cannot end soon enough.

Ro Khanna: "They're making comedy illegal. Brendan Carr pressured ABC to cancel Jimmy Kimmel, and Disney cancels Jimmy Kimmel. This canceling from an administration that lectured us about cancel culture. That's why today I'm introducing a motion to subpoena Brendan Carr."

Charlie Kirk was a bigoted, homophobic, sexist arsehole of the highest order who promoted gun violence as a good necessary thing. He was a blight on society. I’m free to express my opinion. If it upsets you, appeal to your local politician for retribution, I say they can get fucked too.
