Same thing happening in Texas. And New York. And New Mexico.

Data centers are bringing the country together in agreement on a topic in a way I have not seen before.

So so so gross. Doubly so because what drove millions to maha was the claim that the mrna vaccine for covid was a tuskegee syphilis experiment on them. Here they are wanting to actually repeat the insanity.

Strait of Hormuz could be vulnerable to Iran retaliation. Here's what to know about the vital oil trade route. As U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities drive fears of retaliation, it remains to be seen whether Iran will try to block oil trade via the Strait of Hormuz.

Guys, Iran is going to do this – because that was always part of their plan – and then the real war will start.

🚨Ethical concerns about the RFK Jr-funded Danish researchers in Guinea-Bissau are mounting by the day

@standupforscience.bsky.social sent an investigative reporter to exploreβ€”what they found is *very* alarming

Great piece by @melodyschreiber.com, including an interview with the mighty Magda Robalo

They ham up a version of manhood so camp, so excessive, so drag, that they give away the game and reveal the artifice of it all.

Chart from NP story about a poll. The caption reads a slim majority of Americans oppose having the National guard at voting locations to monitor November's election. 

The results show Americans overall oppose that policy by margin of 54 to 48, but Republicans support it, 73 to 27.

Republicans, during the early years of Reconstruction: we support the use of the military to protect voting rights

Republicans today: we support the use of the military to suppress voting rights

Bush v Gore broke the court, Obergefell almost redeemed it. Guess which case the Roberts court wants to overturn.

If you want, I'm open to somehow exposing your insights to my students the week we read the Jones book.

Today was a special day. As I walked through My Lai, just after sunrise, an old man called out and invited me inside his house. It turned out to be Do Ba - the small child that Hugh Thompson, Larry Colburn and Glen Andreotta saved on March 16, 1968.

Stupendously dumb people of he worst kind, the rich kind, stumblingly through the worst shock to the global economy since the 1970s and creating of their own volition an unwinnable war.

NBC News poll

Voters hold negative views of Al. In fact, the only topics less popular in the survey were the Democratic Party and Iran.

Sure sounds like somebody at DOGE took the Social Security numbers and personal information of every American on record, and put it on a thumb drive to bring home to Elon Musk’s AI company.

I always did mean to start up a youtube chanel making video essays on historiography and academic historical research. Looks like I'll soon have all the free time in the world to do so!

The fact that a Koch Brothers-funded front group is attacking @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social and me over our book #ScienceUnderSiege (bookshop.org/p/books/scie...) is such an amusing, unintentional affirmation of what we have to say about who is behind the right-wing war on science!

GOP aligned students have been like this for 60+ years. Then they become GOP leaders and politicians.

I’ve said it before, but People magazine should get a Pulitzer for its coverage of this administration.

The Trump-Vance Administration cut SNAP food aid and refused to extend the tax credits that made health care affordable for millions of Americans - but spent $6.9 MILLION on lobster tail and $15.1 MILLION on ribeye steak last September.

I guess it’s "let them eat cake."

I kid you not after being pressed multiple times he eventually settles on "Holocaust documentaries are DEI because it's a gender based story"
