Wow! Yay! The Senate just rejected Trump’s proposed science cuts, voting 82–15 to boost funding for NOAA, NASA, and the NSF. The bill already passed the House 397–28. Strong bipartisan support for science still exists.

Yesterday played out exactly as many expected a cover-up. When 119 pages of grand jury documents are released entirely redacted, that goes far beyond protecting victims’ identities. A court ordered these records released, yet what the public received was effectively nothing.

The brutality of the Trump-Putin alliance that has been unleashed on Ukraine in recent days is staggering. It comes as no surprise, but it is still shocking.
Whether it likes it or not, Europe has become the last stronghold of the rule of law.

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?

But that's just me
