Friendly reminder: if you are waiting on something from a US-based scientist/reviewer/editor, please realize that we're barely making it through each day putting out non-stop fires and trying not to collapse into tears. We're trying our best, but things will take longer right now. Give grace.

Marisa Kabas is doing amazing reporting on our current constitutional crisis.
“A lot of journalists argue that their role isn’t to advocate—that that’s not their job. But if your job isn’t to inform people in a way that will help them, then I don’t really understand what your job is.”

Hey, @nbcnews.com, thanks for reporting. In addition, word on the street is that there is an active, hostile takeover of our government happening now. Might want to look into it. That would be some big “breaking news.” You can thank me for the tip later.
Federal health workers are expressing fear and alarm after a website called “DEI Watch List” published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers across health agencies, describing them as “targets.”

The site calls out workers who have been involved with DEI initiatives. A majority are Black.
