"They have killed American citizens in our streets." Gov. Abigail Spanberger criticizes Trump's immigration enforcement in the Democratic response to the State of the Union. READ NOW: www.ms.now/liveblog/sta...

My thoughts on Stephen A Smith potentially running for president are: Could we please stop fucking electing celebrities and get back to the business of running the country with boring people who just want to do a good job. Thanks

I love it when new archaeological research is coupled with beautiful photographs of the artifacts. Exciting work on the exceptional Younger Dryas-age organic technologies of some of North America’s first peoples. www.johnhawks.net/p/complex-fi...

AOC: All in the name of Charlie Kirk, Trump and the FCC are now cynically threatening to shut down ABC and any outlets who give air time to the administration's political critics. This is a disgusting attack on the American people and the very first amendment rights that define us as a country.

This billionaire’s fortune is built atop research funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation, and yet he seeks to destroy that agency and its investments in the scientific engine that has fueled our tech industry since the 1950s. And why? Because it tried to include more diverse scholars?

California's protests were deemed peaceful by the LA PD. This is a takeover by the federal gov't because the Trump admin is violating due process using ICE. CA citizens stood up for the US Constitution, the 1st amendment and the rule of law.

So are we just teaching our kids they have to obey anyone with a mask and an unmarked car and an oddly-fitting vest and zip ties now and go with them? Is this where we’re at?

i think it should be a bigger story that the president held a meeting with a foreign head of state where he ranted about the most gutter white supremacist propaganda you can find on the internet

I said it would get worse very quickly. By tomorrow we will have completed the most dangerous & frightening 24 hours thus far of Trump 2.0. Just to name a few: 1. Defiance of a court order by sending migrants to Sudan without due process (despite clear DP decision SCOTUS) & Dist. CT. order.

“In the end the Party would announce that two and two made five, and you would have to believe it. It was inevitable that they should make that claim sooner or later: the logic of their position demanded it.” - 1984, George Orwell

Just found out last night, thanks to ancestry work by my lovely sister, that one branch of my ancestors immigrated from the #Netherlands only five generations (1850s) ago. Another set lived in there for 100+ years, one gen moved to Norway, then to the colonies in the late 1600s.

Our trade deal so far is no tariffs on Rolls Royces and Bentleys and our refugee policy is white South Africans only.

RFK Jr and Statistics:

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

I have autism. I graduated high school with honors and had the highest SAT score in school history. I've been married to my wonderful wife for 28 years and have three amazing children. I've had a successful career as a software and DevOps engineer and paid plenty in taxes. Go fuck yourself RFK Jr.

Rights of due process don't depend on our personal opinions of the accused. For example, I regard the January 6, 2021, criminals as insurrectionists and traitors - yet I am still glad that each and every one of them got a proper trial before they were convicted and sentenced.

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything, Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT. ~ All of Us

What a fabulous point.

Wtf?

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

Coming soon to your kids classroom: (1) Native Americans weren’t really even here that much (2) Slavery was good, actually (3) Donald Trump invented America

This whole ordeal has made me a subscriber to @theatlantic.com. It’s so wonderful to see good journalism in this age of stupidity and lies

Pritzker: The question I ask is: if you’re willing to hand the keys to Europe over to Putin, what’s next? How does the US retain its leadership in the world when he’s essentially retreating to our own borders? He’s even made enemies of the Canadians—I can’t imagine anything more telling than that.

Walz: "It's so obscene that he would put a mock classroom -- we all know he's never been in one. He wouldn't last for a minute. He's surrounded by people who know nothing about education. They want to make this about bureaucracy and cutting. This is about children."

Imagine calling yourself the master race and have to resort to erasing the achievements of minorities to make yourself feel better.

America broke itself just because it couldn't stand women and people of color finally getting a small piece of the pie. Alas. Same as it ever was. White supremacy and greed. Dangerous, wild, self-destructive drugs.

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

Bernie Sanders: "I think this is a prelude not only to cutting benefits, but to privatizing Social Security ... why do you lie so much about Social Security? Why do you make it look like it's a broken system? The reason is to get people to lose faith in the system so you can give it over to Wall St"

“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, but only if they pay me 5 million dollars for my instant-citizenship Gold Card.💰” -Comrade Krasnov #GrifterInChief

This list is so long and taking up so much real estate in his speech it’s almost like they want to distract from their massive cuts to Medicaid

Outrageous authoritarianism

As of today, a new term has entered our language. A “rubio” is a spineless lump of nothing. Example: Don’t be such a rubio.

“Let me ask you one question: Is your money that good? Will it buy you forgiveness, do you think that it could? I think you will find, when your death takes its toll, all the money you made will never buy back your soul.” -Bob Dylan

Me: I’m going to not engage in much politics on Bluesky. Keep it #science focused *Trump halts NIH and NSF funding* Me:……..Well, there goes that

A new one from some colleagues up in Idaho. Owl Cave is a fantastic example of why and how taphonomic analysis of bones is done. We now have a 14C dated Folsom site west of the Rockies. Pretty cool. Well done everyone. #archaeology #science #bison www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Cheers, folks! Just had a paper accepted. Stay tuned for some historical ecology in the Great Basin...historical ecology about elk.

Does anyone else find #AI summaries of emails and texts laughably inaccurate? Please stop. I don’t want AI to summarize thing.
