MADELEINE DEAN: The president is unhinged. He's unwell JOHNSON: A lot of folks on your side are too D: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals? J: I didn't see it D: It's so dangerous! Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing. You have a POTUS who's unwell.

Just talked with my wife, we are cancelling our Disney+ subscription. If you have one, I encourage you to do the same.

A federal judge in Boston said she found it "difficult to conclude anything other than that [the Trump administration] used antisemitism as a smokescreen for a targeted, ideologically-motivated assault on this country's premier universities, and did so in a way that runs afoul of [federal law]."

Donna Lieberman of @nyclu.org is absolutely right. It's vital that @governor.ny.gov sign these critical bills to protect New Yorkers' reproductive freedom, including the NY Health Information Privacy Act that I carry w/@lindabrosenthal.bsky.social. www.timesunion.com/opinion/arti...

Trump: "A lot of people are saying maybe we'd like a dictator."

This is literally some of the craziest shit I have ever read. And that's saying a lot. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Excited to see our manuscript out @natcomms.nature.com pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40721431/. We identified that the 18S rRNA methylase DIMT-1 regulates lifespan by functioning in the germline after midlife. 1/8

I was born in the McCarthy era, but this is McCarthyism on steroids. Our democracy is under dire threat. But we have a government of laws, not men. And NO ONE is above the law.

Congratulations to Anne @brunetlab.bsky.social for being elected to the AAAS www.amacad.org/new-members-...! And congratulations to all the other new members

Last week, House Democrats opposed giving Elon Musk and Trump a blank check funding bill that would allow them to gut programs and services families rely on. The Senate must pass a short-term spending bill so we can pass bipartisan bills that protect programs for our communities.

They literally just told everyone in the dept of education to not come to work!!! They are already doing this!!!

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up. Tomorrow is the cloture vote. KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️ Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill. Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.

Donna Lieberman, @dlnyclu.bsky.social Executive Director of the New York Civil Liberties Union @nyclu.org on Mahmoud Khalil: "There is not a hint of a claim that he did any of those things. The idea that he should be deported is illegal, wrong, and reeks of McCarthyism."
