The path to the republic was born on a July 4th, and it ended this July 3rd. This was the second American revolution.

Chris Murphy: "We can't be preparing for the 2026 election. It might not come. All of our focus right now has to be on protecting the democracy, about stopping the corruption."

A recent study found that for every $1 invested in the National Weather Service, it produces $73 in value to Americans. Not only is the NWS a life-saving government resource, it's actually quite efficient.

So relieved to see that Mellon will be providing emergency relief funding the US’s state and jurisdictional humanities councils. If I learned one thing during my years at NEH, it was how crucial these organizations are to our public humanities infrastructure. www.mellon.org/news/america...

For all federal employees: Before you are locked out of your systems, ensure you have copies of unclassified performance appraisals, awards & other relevant personnel docs. If you have access to your office, grab your more important personal items sooner rather than later.

The first economy to collapse will be that of the DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia). Getting the federal government is not the only goal. Massive unemployment in the area, and repurposing federal buildings is.

Trump is the straw man. Stop centering him. He is the distraction. Impeaching him would do nothing. It is not too late to stop this, but it is going to take a lot more than the equivalent of “thoughts and prayers.”

A new era of government censorship has begun. It started with the silencing of scientific speech, when the admin blocked release of research on bird flu. But MAGA has also cracked down on other wrongthink—on race, geography (!), and of course Trump himself www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

So while everyone has been focusing on the dumpster fire of Trump, let's see what MAGA has been up to in the House. They have been busy introducing laws meant to restrict abortion nationwide. First up. Restricting abortion medication. (This is going to be one long thread)

2/ Autogolpe, or self-coup, “is a form of coup d'état in which a political leader, having come to power through legal means, stays in power through illegal means through the actions of themselves and/or their supporters.” It’s coming. It may already be here.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.

Auschwitz Memorial @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social · 27/01/2025

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

If you’re in an institution doing any kind of DEI work, the most important thing to do right now is simply call it something else. Change it to “Community Outreach” & then keep on doing the same important work. When they outlaw Community Outreach rebrand it as “Strategic Partnerships,” rinse/repeat.

Some people love public libraries but never set foot in them. My challenge to you is - set foot in them. How often is up to you. Why? Because we take stats of occupancy that helps us get or keep funding. Set a goal to physically set foot in any/all public libraries once a week, once a month...
