A thread posted on Threads by Senator Cory Booker: “Here is to the decency of past presidents and the urgent need for us to have this again.” A video clip of George W Bush speaking at a lectern is included. Above the video is the text, “I miss seeing this kind of dignity & grace from a Republican President.”
BRO, WHAT THE FUCK IS THE MATTER WITH YOU?!
This is the way. Any 2028 Dem candidates need to start saying that on Day One: (1) all ICE agents fired; (2) pensions/benefits defunded; (3) forced to pay backpay as restitution to victims; and (4) only way to avoid prison is to become a cooperating informant
Happy Wednesday to you, as well😊This week has me more frazzled than usual🤪I hope your week is going well
I’m late but thank you so much, Maureen😊💙you rock!
This line graph illustrates the percentage change in agency staff levels from the previous year for nine major U.S. federal scientific and health organizations between the fiscal years 2016 and 2025. The agencies tracked include the CDC, Department of Energy, EPA, FDA, NASA, NIH, NIST, NOAA, and NSF. For the majority of the timeline between 2016 and 2023, the agencies show relatively stable fluctuations, generally staying within a range of +5% to -5% change per year. However, there is a dramatic and uniform plummet starting in the 2024–25 period. Every agency depicted shows a sharp downward trajectory, with staffing losses ranging from approximately -15% to over -25%. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) shows the most significant decline, dropping to roughly -26%, while the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) shows the least severe but still substantial drop at approximately -15%.
This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.

Sweet! Thanks😊
school being canceled because the president sent armed thugs to harass and imprison the populace for voting against him should be the biggest domestic scandal in american history
I understand exhaustion. I understand cynicism. But saying “I don’t do politics” is still a choice and it’s a choice with consequences for everyone else!
Democracy asks something of us, even when it’s uncomfortable. Especially then. Because the cost of disengagement is paid by the most vulnerable.
Saying “I don’t do politics” is a privilege.
Democracy rarely falls all at once. It erodes slowly, quietly, through apathy & disengagement. Everytime someone says “I don’t do politics,” they help normalize silence and silence is fertile ground for authoritarianism.

Dr. Gladys West, the pioneering mathematician whose work laid the foundation for modern GPS technology, has died. She was 95.
I will remember! #MLK
My parents came to this country from Jamaica the year after Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr was assassinated. My sister and I and so many others owe our existence to him and others in the civil rights movement who fought to make this country a democracy for everyone within its borders.

A few months ago, ICE hired me
I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable
And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!"
My latest for Slate
That looks so peaceful. I love our crime ridden city😍
LMAO
Doc, I didn’t mean that snarky towards you lol
She said what she said
a lot of problems wouldn't exist if we had a congress with even an ounce of self interest
