My parents complain that I am stubborn. In these crazy times, being stubborn is necessary. Vought terminated $ billions in funding across federal agencies. Scientists have had to resort to fundraising to finish the projects that they started. Science can't stop. 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

I saw Musk, Alex Gibney's documentary, yesterday afternoon. This is easily the most important documentary of the last decade. Watching it reminded me that over the last decade, exactly two publications have done a stand-up job of covering Musk: WSJ and Wired. The balance of US media has been AWOL.

Water is a necessity for life, and rural Texans depend on their wells to survive. Yet Big Tech wants to build massive AI data centers that could drain the same aquifers our families and farmers rely on. We cannot allow billionaire corporations to put our drinking water at risk for their profits.

Today Oct 27@ 7:40am masked ICE agents violently abducted two neighbors in Corona and threatened bystanders with pepper spray. This is not normal. NYC will continue to stand up and protect each other. Abolish ICE.

Trump admitted he blocked energy funding to punish blue states he lost in 2024, including $586 million for Illinois. Courts ruled it illegal. He's still blocking the money. Bipartisan permitting reform won't work if Trump ignores the law. He must reinstate the grants first.

To Republicans, telling blatant lies is a routine political activity, like putting a bumper sticker on your car.

Michele Tafoya claims the fact that her website doesn't mention that she's a Republican is just an unintentional oversight

Weird propaganda ad during the World Series calling liberals the *new* racists. If true, aren’t the republicans implying that they’re the OG racists? Like “Yep, we’ve been the racists for the past 400 years. NOW it’s the liberals!”

Kori Schake; "It cannot be stated often enough or vociferously enough: the Trump Administration is helping Russia to conquer Ukraine. The United States of America has taken the side of an aggressor against its innocent victim." www.aei.org/foreign-and-...

A satellite industry consultant says Musk is 'essentially making huge foreign policy decisions.' Washington has sought to block Iran-backed groups from using the service while expanding internet access in Iran. The US government has repeatedly asked Musk to switch its Starlink satellite internet

Pennsylvania courts say court-appointed attorneys should act “expeditiously” to secure new trials for clients who believe they were wrongfully convicted. Our records review found delays as long as 19 years without a single court filing. with @inquirer.com

Ashley Hinson hired the Golden Girls 2.0 from Florida to play “concerned Iowa women” in her new ad.

words, Putin gets everything he wants, and the US gets nothing, but the Trump family and their cronies walk away with private billions as payment for their sell-out. The short name for this is treason.

Elements of Trump's grand bargain with Putin now emerging: (1) lift sanctions against Russia; (2) give Russia control of the Polar LNG project on Alaska's North Slope; (3) give Trump cronies control of LUKoil's foreign assets and remove sanctions; (4) drawn down of US support for NATO. In other

Trump on solar panels: "They kill all the animals. The animals jump on them and they fry."

"The votes aren't there" is cowardice masked as savviness. There has to be accountability for their crimes. The House has a duty to make the case here and if some GOP senators want to weasel out, make them own that vote. Don't let pundits and "strategists" talk you out of doing your damn job.

Last year today was one of the scariest days of my life. We initially called a lawyer who wanted to work with feds to arrange a perp walk. Kat told that guy to fuck himself. Thank God for the National Lawyer's Guild, who Kat called right after. They were ready to fight the bullshit on zero notice.

In the face of all the Grand Juries refusing to indict Trump's political enemies, I can't help but recall Justice Sotomayor's argument against Trump immunity in 2024; that we already have protections against rogue prosecutors, including The Grand Jury.
