Dem bashers, accelerationists, Bernie bros will not get a follow back

They medieval Islamic scholars didn't just preserve the writings of the Greeks. They invented experimentation.

Happy Mole Day!

I'm more scared of this than I am of election interference.

Took me about 5 seconds to find instead of jumping to decide he had lost his way and was now siding with terrorists..

“I don’t think any of us, in our wildest dreams, expected this many fish this quickly to repatriate that area,” said Keith Parker, a senior fisheries biologist and member of the Yurok Tribe, which led the decades-long campaign to have the dams removed. enewspaper.pressdemocrat.com/infinity/art...

Head Start plays a pivotal role in communities across #MO05. That’s why I joined nearly 200 lawmakers in demanding the Trump administration end its assault on this program that countless families and children depend on. abcnews.com/Politics/dem...

In 1967, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Kuwait, Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Sudan, Libya, and the PLO, supported by the Soviet Union, mobilized their militaries with the explicit goal of annihilating Israel. #History #SixDayWar #MiddleEastHistory #IsraelHistory #ArabHistory

Mother Jones' whole family (husband, all her children) was wiped out by yellow fever in the 1867 epidemic in Memphis.

Neiman Marcus closed its downtown Dallas flagship on Wednesday. The store played a notable role in the history of desegregation in Dallas. Previously, Black shoppers across the US could enter department stores, but they weren't allowed to try on clothes without adhering to certain conditions. 🧵

We had so many inactives (what they call it in MO) in the August primary. It really slows down the process. Take care of it NOW.

#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1904: A train filled with white, Catholic orphans pulls into Clifton, Ariz. Enraged that the children are being adopted by Mexican American families, a white mob abducts the children from their new homes at gunpoint and redistributes them to white families. /1

America was ready for a white woman president in 2016 when Hillary crushed Trump in the popular vote. America came within 1.5 points of electing a Black woman president in 2024 after only 107 days of campaigning. We are very close to getting it right.

Two years ago, I was proud to secure $1 million for MOCSA's new location, which triples the organization's physical capacity. I'll continue fighting for federal funding that supports critical local projects like this that benefit our communities.

Entryism. It's a feature not a bug en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entryism

Senator Alsobrooks was one of the few silver linings to come out of the 2024 election.

. @cleaver.house.gov to me: “The joy I feel now is generated by the fact that the people won this battle.” Missourians used the referendum process to foil Donald Trump's effort to redraw the state's congressional districts. Full @stlpublicradio.bsky.social coverage:

With so many valid life paths to follow, why do so many choose the sociopath?

The American public has an attitude of entitlement when it comes to Democrats repairing Republican damage. Reality shows that it's more like cleaning up an oil spill. But the American public wants it done in 30 minutes or less like Domino's Pizza, or they get pissy and let the Republicans back in.

Related: people often ask "how much did you really lose when the CPB was dissolved?" and the answer is: about $375K annually. So, we have to figure out how to replace that, on top of what we normally had to raise to keep the lights on. It's a challenge.

Coincidentally, the KPR member stations (the flagship KANU frequency was one of the first to sign on as a member station of NPR) are having a pledge drive right now. We're raising money to continue local and regional reporting, augmented by the national & international resorces of NPR.

Susan La Flesche Picotte: the first #NativeAmerican woman to earn a medical degree in the US. Living in an era when Native Americans were denied citizenship & women couldn't vote, she became an indispensable physician & fierce defender of her people's sovereignty. Died #OTD in 1915. #WomenInSTEM 🧵

This is a subhed for the ages in the WSJ this morning: “Talk of heading off artificial intelligence’s potential role in destroying humanity hurt some stocks and helped others”

#OTD in 1992, Dr. Mae Jemison launched into orbit as a mission specialist aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour making her the first Black woman to travel into space. An incredible life: + Physician (M.D., Cornell 1981) + Peace Corps Area Medical Officer in Sierra Leone & Liberia #WomenInSTEM 🧵

#BREAKING: Over *no* public dissents, #SCOTUS *stays* the federal district court’s TRO in the Missouri redistricting case, effectively restoring the Missouri Supreme Court ruling from last week (and the 2022 map that it requires the state to use in November).

This is seismic news for fisheries scientists. Northern cod is *the* iconic symbol of total fisheries collapse due to overfishing (and other factors) *and* the iconic symbol of a complete failure to recover for decades afterwards. This is like announcing the complete recovery of bison on land.

🚨BREAKING: Supreme Court DENIES Missouri’s emergency stay application leaving the 2022 congressional map protecting Black voters in Kansas City in place for the midterms. A victory for Elias Law Group, its client and voters of Missouri! www.democracydocket.com/cases/missou...

The administration’s reckless tariff taxes have instigated a trade war with our Canadian allies—which will only drive-up costs, kill jobs, and slow our economy. A self-inflicted crisis when families are already struggling to stay afloat.

Populations, in a genetic sense, are not "races" in the racialist sense, no matter how much the new scientific racists try to elide the two. That's the most important thing to remember when they start in on the topic.

I think everyone on the left needs to decide once and for all whether or not spending months screaming about how evil and awful the candidate is hurts their chances or not. If it does, then great - you are to blame for 2024. Own up to it. If it doesn't, then stop whining about Hasan/El-Sayed.

I should not have more followers on here than the Democratic candidate for Governor of Wisconsin. Please follow and share 👇🏼

They really made *Troost* the dividing line between the new gerrymandered 4th and 5th districts! www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6PC...
