I thought the same a couple years ago. But recent events prove this untrue. NIH just shifted a bunch of money to DoD and NSF was gutted with money shifted to tech-centered AI efforts.

I grew up in a conservative Christian family. I got myself vaccinated as an adult. My family was the 1980/90s version of MAGA. My science teachers in high school shifted my views. They had PhDs. I am a scientist now but my life could have gone a very different direction absent my science teachers.

Yeah. I consider this American oligarchy (some have likened it to the 19C robber barons, but that analogy falls short given huge government contracts going directly to these people along with their ability to govern in very direct ways). It's a Putin-esque clique.

3. Science enables regulation, but monied interests want to protect their profit over your health. @naomioreskes.bsky.social & Eric Conway cover this well in their book Merchants of Doubt, as does @drdavidmichaels.bsky.social in his book Doubt Is Their Product.

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

When your worldview is built on bigotry rather than reason, this is the natural result. You start with prejudice, work backward to justify it, and call the conclusion God’s will.

Trying to intimidate voters to not show up. Don't let them. Vote early. Make a plan. Drop off your ballot at an official dropbox instead of mailing. There's more of us than them. It's "We the People", not a bunch of greedy, white supremacists, Christian nationalist freaks.

The Trump regime wants to dismantle the International Criminal Court because it plans to continue committing war crimes. The Trump regime is refusing to allow international election monitors because it plans to continue committing election fraud. They are not being subtle.
