Are you ready for the biggest day of mass protest that America has ever seen? Across all 50 states and dozens of countries, millions of people will gather tomorrow to reject Trump’s brutality at home and abroad. Please join us for a historic No Kings Day: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

I'm attending No Kings's event, “NO KINGS Huntington, NY” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/mobilize/eve...

Email your senators to urge them not to confirm Jim O’Neill as Director of the National Science Foundation. He's not a scientist, has no relevant expertise, promoted vaccine misinformation, helped gut the CDC, and his Silicon Valley ties raise questions about protecting the public interest. (1/2🧵)

A statement on the connection between certain scientists and a known criminal is coming soon. I and my colleagues have a zero tolerance policy on this. It extends to enablers and those apparently ok to vacillate on these issues.

Urge your Members of Congress to call for an end to Netanyahu’s intentional starvation of over two million people in Gaza. Elected officials from both parties must force the issue with Trump’s administration with demands to lift aid restrictions and allow trusted third parties to distribute food.
