Team, my job is to organize D- side money, I have seen bad ideas get funded and good ideas die on vine all based on how the resources move. Follow me for inside scoops. We’ve all got to get serious about how we fund at scale the depth of work needed to get out of this hell. ✌🏼

New Short Take on what wealth is for, and how funding science (and the humanities!) isn't just good for a lucky kid like me, it also grows the hell out of the economy for everyone. Inspired by two new scientist friends, @cdelawalla.bsky.social and @markhisted.org and the rally coming up March 7th!

Without the corrupt Supreme Court, Democrats would have had a majority in the House this year. Imagine how this year would have been different if Dems controlled the House.
It would have been that way if not for Alito and Roberts and the rest rolling back voting rights.

yes, there are no real signs of any big change in DHS activity here yet. In Chicago there really was after Bovino left and they basically ended "Midway Blitz" not so here so far.
I don’t know, declaring victory in MN seems premature. They’re still arresting people and brutalizing the community. The changes appear—so far—to be cosmetic

It is appalling that instead of investigating the ICE agent who murdered Rene Good the Trump regime is now investigating Rene Good’s widow as a “domestic terrorist.”
But it shouldn’t be surprising. It’s just another example of the regime's strategy: REALITY WAR.
