When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

The CDC website has restored the YRBSS info for the time being. Download now if you need it! There is a "warning" about how it isn't endorsed by the administration, but whatever. 🙄

I have downloaded data as I can, that I need, but also that is important to my discipline. I can share if needed: some UCR, some Census, CRDC, Monitoring the Future, SSOCS, working on MO DESE report cards.

If needed, I downloaded the following data today:

-Monitoring the Future data (most current)
-Some Census data - estimates from 2023 and 2024
-School Survey on Crime and Safety (SSOCS) data (all available)

I still have CRDC data (some links aren't working now) and UCR data.

Here is the website for open data from all government agencies: data.gov.

Download as much as possible! I'm going to start on the juvenile justice data tonight.

Darren Beattie, Trump’s new acting Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs, once posted, “Competent white men must be in charge if you want things to work.” Beattie also posted I need to “learn” my “place” and “take a knee to MAGA.” 1/2

they are stealing data from the american people and depriving us of the transparency that we are entitled to by law. none of this is legal and not a single federal employee has any reason to comply.

Hearing from the academic community that some grants ALREADY AWARDED are being frozen or canceled. So far, I've heard that from people with NSF and NIH grants.

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.

Just received notice today that all NIJ (National Institute of Justice) grant solicitations are canceled until further notice. That now makes the NIJ (nij.ojp.gov/funding/curr...), NIH (www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...), and NSF (news from a colleague).

You can bet more is coming.
