Democracy matters. The US is backsliding dramatically—from liberal democracy to electoral democracy. www.democracywithoutborders.org/41651/v-dem-...

V-Dem report finds global democracy is back at 1978 levels
V-Dem’s 2026 assessment finds that autocracies outnumber democracies by 92 to 87. With 44 countries worsening and 18 improving, the current wave of autocratization is continuing.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

SEEING IS BELIEVING DHS claims the car being chased rammed the ICE vehicle. The video shows the opposite. 📌 A father and son, a US citizen, are chased. The teen is beaten and seriously injured. The father is deported. DHS lied. The video tells the truth. Excellent reporting by Antonia Hylton.

Nonpartisanship becomes/seems complicated when one party engages in disinformation, going far beyond campaigning, and also in opposition to democracy and to internationally recognized human rights. We are nonpartisan. We stand for human rights & democracy & against disinformation & bigotry.

At this point, we have to use counterspeech against state-sponsored disinformation as well as against the misinformation that it causes.

5/ 🧵 If you support the idea that nations should have territorial integrity and sovereignty, you should oppose this attack on Venezuela.That idea is the bedrock of the international world order. That’s why it’s enshrined in the UN Charter. It’s key to preventing endless wars.
