Bill Pulte, who has no intelligence experience and is under investigation for manufacturing fake fraud allegations against Trump's perceived enemies, is now Acting Director of National Intelligence, overseeing the government’s vast network of spy agencies, including the CIA and NSA.

Last night in Philly we hosted a celebratory dinner for our daughter’s good friend who took her citizenship oath yesterday. 🇺🇸 No ICE nonsense. Just a judge and dozens of newly minted citizens so excited and grateful to be here. Good things are still happening. Don’t let the chaos fool you.

Things I never thought I would say…I believe we owe Curtis Sliwa our gratitude. #NYCMayor

Abortion rights, voting rights, and free speech were on the ballot and Pennsylvania voters knew it. Retaining a state supreme court that values our constitutional freedoms and rights is a major win for civil liberties in PA.

Lancaster PA showing up for #Democracy #NoKings in a big way.

Tragic mass shootings in SC and MI this weekend. Should we assume the national guard will be called in to these “war zones”? Oh wait-never mind. They are republican led so everything is great.

Powell -equities are “fairly highly valued” is he trying to say the 2025 version of “Irrational exuberance” ? @carlquintanilla.bsky.social Asking for a friend.

You had questions about President Trump's deployment of federal troops to U.S. cities, and we have answers.

The POTUS babbling is in coherent. He’s bounced from all the wars he’s ended; democrats thanking him for making it safe to go out to dinner in DC and how he gets blamed for everything. #UkrainianPeaceSummit

TY #standuplanc for protesting in front of the #ICEagents hotel in #LancasterPA. Stop kidnapping our neighbors for your stupid political theater.

Trump on @cnbc.com with @andrewrsorkin.bsky.social sounds full on crazy pants. “Banks are afraid of regulators but they are more afraid of their wives.” Even #JoeKernan is trying to get him to stop talking.

Turn your passion into action. RSVP today for the first session of the ACLU People Power series on Tuesday 7/8 at 8 pm ET to learn how to organize effectively in your community to defend our civil rights.

This would fund 22 years of NSF’s *entire* current budget. Instead, we are taking people off healthcare to pay for concentration camps.

Private philanthropy is not going to fix the gaping holes left by federal cuts. Letters/applications are up: 4x for Spencer Foundation (500 -> 2000) 3x for W. T. Grant Foundation It's "millions compared to billions," said Alonzo L. Plough, VP of research at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

After public outcry, a provision has been removed from the House tax bill that would've essentially given the executive branch free rein to shut down non-profits and stifle dissent. This is a big win, but we must keep up the pressure to make sure this dangerous proposal stays dead.

🧪 Another round of NSF grant terminations is expected today. But here’s a silver lining: there’s already a webinar for you today at 2 pm ET if you’re in that boat! (Tries to find the dark humor in moments like these…)

So do we think #StanleyTucci has a chance or is it #RalphFienns? #Pope #conclave

AAAS CEO Sudip Parikh spoke with @cnn.com anchor @kimbrunhuber.bsky.social about U.S. brain drain. “As we go through the next 6 months to a year, hopefully we get to a point where scientists see what the enterprise will look like. I'm asking leaders to lay out their visions for American scientists.”

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

Really thoughtful read. Highly recommend. Also incandescent with rage over this whole situation. 🤬

#ND v #IU that was the most chaotic 2 plays of the season.

Periodically during the day my Apple Watch buzzes me to say “Time to stand up!” And I find myself whispering “oh shut up!” Every single time. I really need to turn the “feature” off. Or stand up.

“Lemon-its Wednesday” Cheers to everyone surviving post Thanksgiving meeting pile up. #help #meetinghell
