Hands off our press. Hands off our bodies. Hands off our museums. Hands off our healthcare. Hands off our democracy. Hands off our immigrant neighbors. Donald Trump is attacking everyone & everything EXCEPT the cost of living.

A recent survey found that 92% of U.S. adults have delayed or avoided medical care due to high costs. Meanwhile, a new study from Yale estimates that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have universal healthcare.

Our census determines the federal dollars our communities receive for things like school lunches, housing assistance, & more. That's why every person deserves to be counted. This is another attempt by Trump to attack immigrants & states that treat all their residents as people.

This is absolutely terrifying and should be a five alarm fire for Congress. We need comprehensive, federal AI regulations NOW that prioritize our rights and safety. And we cannot let AI and multibillion dollar corporations threaten humanity.
A tweet by Jacob Coxon that reads: I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

Even if there was a 1% chance AI could wipe out human life, we should be pumping the brakes to make sure we have the proper safeguards in place, not racing blindly into disaster. It's time for Congress to step in and find the balance between safety and innovation, before it's too late.

The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left." It’s between democracy and oligarchy. The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power. Remember this.

There are now 100 days until the midterms. Trump will only get more unhinged and more authoritarian over these next few months as he feels his power start to slip. It’s up to us to overcome whatever he throws at us and deliver a victory so decisive no one can undermine it.

Many are going out on duty having only taken online courses. Ordinarily, federal law enforcement training at all LE agencies takes months. Several months of in-person training and then up to two years of OJT. Put a lack of training together with bigotry and you get this.

NIH grants have been under political scrutiny since early 2025. But what does the screening process actually look like? What is being flagged? I spent a month digging into leaked docs and emails. We've published the 235-word list that are being flagged by an internal AI tool. And so much more. 🧵
