Excellent explainer on why private industry and venture capital can’t replace government funded basic science research.

What is freedom of expression? Without the freedom to offend, it ceases to exist. Without the freedom to challenge, even to satirize all orthodoxies, it ceases to exist.

For those who don’t know history

This was not a political sting operation where an official is induced to do crime. Homan was *actively soliciting bribes*, the FBI heard about it, and so gave it a try. Worth also highlighting this was a grift since he was selling influence prior to the election—so before he had any to sell

Vote with your dollars.

Critical part of the President's new $100,000 charge for H1-B visas: The Administration can also offer a $100,000 discount to any person, company, or industry that it wants. Replacing rules with arbitrary discretion. Want visas? You know who to call and who to flatter.

The federal workers who take care of our veterans, inspect our food, and help people through natural disasters know Trump’s lawlessness is hurting everyday Americans and they are begging Congress to stop it.

I just spoke to NYC Comptroller Brad Lander as he left police custody following his arrest at immigration court. Here’s what he said:

Ruffalo: I'm reaching out to all of my brothers and sisters in the entertainment industry, to join us...They're coming after celebrities because they know we are the last ones to actually be able to have our freedom to speak. So use your platform wisely, use it generously for this movement. #NoKings

“If Comey loses—or if the courts refuse reinstatement—it would sound the death knell for the fragile ideal that federal prosecutors can operate free of political pressure and free from serving a political master.” newrepublic.com/article/2006...

David Letterman is right: you can't appease a tyrant.

“I’m shocked you would make that claim” 😕🤷🏻‍♂️ 🤦🏼‍♀️ Another one that hasn’t aged great. (Her condescending looks really seal the deal)

1/ First, the measles, mumps, rubella, and varicalla (MMRV) votes at #ACIP What fAkeCIP didn’t understand - until after they'd voted - was that, by voting MMRV as *not* recommended for kids <4, they changed access to MMRV They did the opposite of what they said they’d do: give parents choices

They’re going to fire a US attorney because they couldn’t find evidence for a crime that was manufactured by the administration? Banana republic shit

With Jon Lorsch's transfer from NIGMS to the Office of the Director and the announced (internally) departure of another institute director effective at the end of November, more than half of the 27 institute and center director positions at NIH will soon be held by people in "acting" capacities.

Whew. 15 min break. Let's recap: > CDC officials learned of Covid vaccine recommendation change via X post > RFK Jr. can't show scientific evidence for changing childhood vax schedule > RFK Jr. gets no briefing from agency public health experts > CDC officials "very nervous" about new ACIP

Monarez: "Kennedy demanded 2 things of me that were were inconsistent w/ my oath of office. He directed me to commit in advance to approving every ACIP recommendation regardless of the scientific evidence. He also directed me to dismiss career officials responsible for vaccine policy without cause"

Hey Brian Kilmeade, Check to see if your hands have blood on them. This is the second mass shooting on a homeless people within 12 hours.

Way back when W was elected (not selected), I told a friend in Switzerland that I lived in a perceived democracy. That perception is gone.

It's been 8 months. They appear to be steamrolling the Constitution with a full head of steam, and no one is stepping up to stop them, and with, it seems, the full support of the Supreme Court. America's epitaph will read - Democracy died with a 6-3 decision.

“I wouldn’t have thought of that”.

#Pinks #ProudBlue The children see through the eyes of the innocent. They haven’t been taught to hate or judge (yet).

This needs to happen in every state. Way to go, New Mexico!

Trump threatens to withhold federal funding from NY if NYC elects Mamdani. An impeachable offense for any other president in any other era. In this one it’s just another Monday.

‘Kupor doesn’t explain how the mass termination of probationary employees enhanced “efficiency and accountability.” The terminations were indiscriminate, rushed, and haphazard.’

Yep, the whole issue of how to fund social security is a made-up problem. Raise the cap.

Pay attention. Something dark might be coming. The murder of Charlie Kirk could have united Americans to confront political violence. Instead, Trump and his anti-democratic radicals look to be readying a campaign to destroy dissent. 1/ Here's what's happening.

NEWS: Gov. Kathy Hochul has endorsed Zohran Mamdani for NYC mayor "We’ve had our disagreements. But in our conversations, I heard a leader who shares my commitment to a New York where children can grow up safe in their neighborhoods and where opportunity is within reach for every family."
