And this highlights a big problem: Since we didn’t prosecute and jail those responsible for this, people like Stephen Miller, they were emboldened to come back and do worse today. The lesson is: when political and biz leaders do crimes, Nixon and Ollie North to Musk and Russ Vought, they must pay.

Boy, NBER made such a good choice refusing to criticize their fellow Jay Bhattacharya, as Bhattacharya lied and denied COVID and helped Trump and Republicans win elections. Surely NBER fellow Bhattacharya will speak up about this! Surely… he will… speak up!?

“Here, too, powerful people are responding to authoritarian advances just as their Hungarian counterparts have — not with defiance, but with capitulation, convinced that they can maintain their independence and stay above the fray.” This applies to scientific and academic leaders too. 🧪

When it comes to rescind funds for NIH and destroy the NIH budget, we want Dems to fight for us then by using every single tool for delay they have.

When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.

💕 So many committed NIH employees, people who loved the place and loved public service were terminated today. It is terrible for them, and a loss for us all.

They fear your voice because it’s powerful. The status quo trembles at a single voice. Silence isn’t safety-it’s surrender. They don’t fear your sadness-they fear your clarity. History doesn’t repeat itself- it responds to silence. They want you numb...so stay awake. Read this...often.

Something super important here: This is POLITICIZATION OF SCIENCE, and if it is not stopped and reversed it will kill American science. MAGA does NOT GET TO SET funding priorities. That is for Congress: for the most democratically-elected body.

Not that anyone cares, but now that JD Vance has cast the tiebreaking vote for $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts, I'm reupping these Vance quotes from 2017, in which he flatly declared that Medicaid cuts like these betray Trumpism's promises to the working class: newrepublic.com/article/1954...

This is absurd. Murkowski was the deciding vote. All the GOPers who voted to strip millions of their health coverage & reduce food assistance to millions of kids to give deficit-expanding tax cuts to the wealthy are each responsible for this. But...Murkowski is a little bit more responsible.

For the record: I'm not a court reporter and can't pretend to be. But what I just witnessed was simply remarkable. I've never seen a sitting US judge excoriate the US government so forcefully. I can't convey just how angry the judge was. I'll try to post Judge's Young's full remarks later.

We're hosting both kids' birthday parties this weekend. I let them choose what kind of cakes to make for them. And they both made *very* ambitious picks--"a colossal squid attacking a pirate ship" for the 8-year-old and "mushrooms on a forest log" for the 11-year-old. But I think I pulled it off!
Log cake with chocolate bark, swirled chocolate frosting, green frosting leaves, and fondant mushrooms.A colossal squid made of a rice krispie treat covered in fondant. With fondant tentacles wrapped around a toy sail boat. On blue and green frosting waves
