I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

At face, the lack of an ACIP board seems like a DC red tape thing, but this is a sneaky eugenics effort. When vaccines are not recommended by ACIP, they are not covered by insurance or available for free through Medicaid…meaning the most physically and financially vulnerable don’t have access.

Evidence "shows that Trump lied about kicking Epstein out of his Mar-a-Lago club," according to a new report from the House Judiciary Dem staff. The report also reveals for the first time Beatrice Keul's account of allegedly having been raped by Trump. democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

RFK is of course correct, it has been *checks notes* an entire year since an Arab has won a Nobel Prize

Sad to hear of the passing of Dr. Gerald Fischbach, who had the vision to start the SCPAB at the Simons. He will be missed.

A serial rapist was elected twice as President, a fact we don't reckon with nearly enough. Now one of two major political parties has been molded in his image, run for and by violent sexual abusers who hate women.

you know how there are literature and journalism prizes? i propose that we introduce a system of literature and journalism demerits. if you do bad gonzo journalism that turns you into a mouthpiece for big tech it should earn your book a demerit that appears on the cover like prize stickers do

the video of him is AMAZING. just stop watching towards the end if you don't want to see a cop being a cop

Today would have been my daughter's 21st birthday. It's a tough one. I miss her like crazy and would give anything to have her chaos back in our lives. What I can do today is ask for your help. We created the Sophie Burdine-Schwartz Impact Fund through the @angelmanfoundation.bsky.social /1

When you find out your kids have been discussing worm tracking, scoring metrics, SVD, and PCA in your kitchen last night without you

Social investment in universities to independently pursue knowledge for its own sake is the greatest driver of innovation we've every known. That is *the* message, and our leaders aren't doing nearly enough to help policy makers understand it.

The 5-year cancer survival rate is up to 70% SIDS deaths have decreased by over 50% 89% decline in tornado deaths All thanks to federal investment in science and OUR tax dollars at work!

Today is the first day of early voting in New Jersey. That’s why I’m taking action to ensure our elections remain free from federal interference. 

In a democracy, voters choose their leaders, not the other way around.

When I was a kid getting cancer was nearly guaranteed to be lethal. I knew one cancer survivor, and it was a very close call. Now every single one of us knows multiple people who have survived very serious cancers. Thank the NIH for funding basic science and clinical studies.

Within my lifetime, we’ve seen cancer treatments that save lives and prevention cancers. Within my lifetime the infectious disease that killed from AIDS has been relegated to a chronic condition. Why? How? Robust funding of biomedical research that is now under sustained attack from our own govt..

HALF A BILLION DOLLARS. Because we struggle with big numbers, if we converted to 446,000,000 dollars to seconds…that would be FIFTEEN (15) YEARS. Overturn Citizens United NOW!

new york forever. FUCK ICE.

love this for NJ

I’ve never trusted this shitweasel.

AOC: "What the Trump administration is doing in targeting trans people is to get everyone on board with supporting defunding their own civil rights ... understand that when they attack trans girls in sports, they're also attacking all women's ability to stand up against their abusers"

Just like the savings plan for kids allows ivestors to donate underperforming stock and get a tax break. But I digress.... www.rawstory.com/trump-accoun...

Agreed. The quote sounds like the fetishization of youth that is part of silicon valley lore - college dropout CEOs. Lot of people getting involved in overseeing science who have no idea how it works. Nothing is stopping another Stan Ovshinsky.

Musk’s wealth is a threat to democracy—not just in the U.S. but everywhere. He’s probably the greatest threat to the free world today.

#DeportElon

I must tell say, getting this study stopped AND the universal birth dose effort moved up a YEAR AND launching the Science & Justice Project is one of my proudest accomplishment, personally and professionally.

These guys spent a whole year’s cost of a biomedical research grant just to harass a senatorial candidate.

I'm not kidding, the guy simply has to be at the very least deported at the end of this. If we're doing "he's not from here" shit, he is the most not from here guy alive. He needs jail or deportation the second it's viable to do it.

The director of FEMA is not allowed to do this legally. The director of OMB is not allowed to do this legally. The President of the United States is not allowed to do this legally. They're a gang of criminals, and should suffer the consequences.

This week, NIH advisors rebuked RFK for harming #NIH and US science. Sheryl Gay Stolberg reported it. Then RFK posted calling her sources anonymous or corrupt. I'll say this hoping it does good: I'm an NIH scientist, I'm not anonymous, and RFK Jr is destroying NIH. More in attachment:

If you think a test for dementia is an IQ test, you have dementia. If you don't realize you have been given a test for dementia because your physician suspects you have dementia, you have dementia. If you think being able to tell a giraffe from a whale makes you a genius . . . you have dementia.

Here’s that comment. The fact that there is no national popular vote means that the majority of the country has presidential votes that do not affect the outcome, and the campaigns and ads concentrated on swing states merely underline that. scienceandfreedomalliance.substack.com/p/presidenti...

embarrassing

Lovely meeting old friend (and fellow @princetonupress.bsky.social author) Coleen Murphy @ctmurphy1.bsky.social in Dublin! 😊

And this is important for science because people like Russell Vought, people who are destroying American science today, are people who don’t think the Constitution protects everyone’s right to practice the faith they choose (or no faith at all). We can’t fix science without restoring that principle.

you have to watch every second. i…wow.

Ossoff: "It's the most corrupt administration of all time & everybody knows it. While the crook president & his crook family rake in billions from all over the world, you pay more for everything... they lied us into war & spent most of the last year covering up for the world's most famous pedophile"

Damn. This is REALLY powerful. Every white American should be required to watch and sit with the realities explained here:

A debate where one candidate flagrantly lies again and again without a mechanism for correction is not a debate. It’s media malpractice.

The United States is actively helping Putin murder civilians in Ukraine. Trump is doing everything he can to force Ukraine to surrender to his friend and ally Putin so they can be subjugated by the Russians again.

I always have mixed feelings about these images. Yes, it's inspiring to see these college students committed to democracy, but the fact that they have to do anything remotely difficult to exercise their voting rights is enraging. Taking part in a democracy should be as easy as possible.
