A federal court has temporarily blocked the DHS rule ending “duration of status” for international students. SfN is concerned it would disrupt scientific training and weaken U.S. efforts to attract and retain top researchers. Read our statement: vist.ly/5n499 #neurosky #neuroskyence

Reputable, reliable outlets you’re banning from the White House, Mr. President, don’t “purposely write negative news.” They report accurately on your negative policies that have negative impacts on Americans.

Who agrees this needs to go viral? Justice, accountability, and democratic rights should never depend on who is in government. Watch. Share. Let the conversation reach everyone. #FreeDC #Justice

Donald Trump thinks bringing down Americans' housing costs is "so unimportant."

Q: What are your plans for the housing affordability bill? Trump: I don't know. It's so unimportant

🚨BREAKING: TRUMP JUST HAD HIS WORST MELTDOWN YET. Trump completely unravels when Kristen Welker challenged him on his California election claims. He called her "crooked" and "stupid," and abruptly WALKED OUT Thank you, Kristen for challenging his BULLSH*T!

What a shame

Breaking news: Indiana University plant microbiologist Roger Innes has been locked out of his laboratory by the school in response to a request by one of his federal funders. The move comes after Innes complained about the government’s prosecution of Chinese postdocs. https://scim.ag/4tsDqRr

Putin und Trump sind raus. Europa ist drin! Ungarn hatte die Wahl und hat entschieden. Die AfD verliert einen wichtigen Verbündeten. Alles in allem ist es ein guter, wirklich guter Abend und der Beginn von etwas Neuem.

Donald Trump is deranged. He must be impeached and removed from office. Republicans who don’t stop him will have blood on their hands, and anyone who carries out an order to bomb civilian targets will be complicit in war crimes and will be held accountable.

Trump: “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will … We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end”

How the tide has changed

Elizabeth Warren@warren.senate.gov

Stephen Miller: “Trump = peace.” Tulsi Gabbard: “A vote for Donald Trump is a vote to end wars, not start them.” JD Vance: “Trump's best foreign policy? Not starting any wars.” Donald Trump: "My proudest legacy will be that of a peacemaker and unifier." Liars.

#DR26 The U.S. democracy is currently in a much faster deterioration process than any other democracy in modern times. Within only one year, the USA’s score on the V-Dem Liberal Democracy index (LDI) has declined by 24 %, from 0.75 in 2024 to 0.57 in 2025. 🧵1(4) #Polisky #PoliSciSky #PolDataSky

Like a mob bust-out gone wrong, Trumpsters’ looting of the Kennedy Center has put it out of business, and now it needs to be “closed for renovations” as cover-up. No surprise he’s being replaced. www.washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say “Send me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact. How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

According to The New York Times, Donald's building monuments to himself makes him "an inescapable force." No. It simply reminds the world what a pathetic, insecure loser we put in power. And it's humiliating.

Donald has been posting unhinged, incoherent ramblings for a decade now, but his recent threats against sovereign nations brings us into totally new and dangerous territory. It’s time to start asking Republicans why they continue to back a man who is so obviously out of his mind.
