I really hate it when scientists keep saying that “we need to rebuild trust in science,” because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.

Future historians, if there is a future, will note that Trump was a fraud in every aspect of his life. His legacy will be remembered as the last despicable gasp of ineptitude in the face of our extinction.

Fox Business credulously reports that Saudi Arabia is pushing its investment into the US "to $1 trillion." The entire size of the Saudi economy is $1 trillion. How stupid are these people and/or how stupid do they think their viewers are?

Note: I saw a variation of this on Twitter from the account (RAWSALERTS-1.2M) and I was stunned they would post something so incredibly inane.

I wanted to test BlueSky members.

Final Results: 99% of you passed 😊

Thank you for the funny replies!

Trump has to release the entirety of the Epstein Files. Recall FBI agents were tasked to find and scrub his name.

We also have the Epstein estate, Ghislaine Maxwell, and the survivors.

He cant escape this.

“The review found that Harvard in 2005 admitted Mr. Epstein as a visiting fellow in the psychology department and readmitted him the following year. And the review concluded “it is likely” that Mr. Epstein visited Harvard more than 40 times after his release from jail, between 2010 and 2018.”

I love the point @marisakabas.bsky.social makes about jumping to the head of the line by doing sensational “journalism” with questionable ethics. This has been a thing in sports media for a long time, as management thinks hiring influencers is the key to getting any more clicks.
Moral rot in elite journalism is killing the whole field
The Nuzzi/RFK Jr. mess and the revelation of Esptein's journo pals lay bare a profound moral absence at the heart of our free press.

If TX is ruled illegal and CA is okay, I will absolutely LOSE IT. Would be one of the funniest things to happen in a while.

In soccer, this would be an own goal.

Even funnier: if the gerrymander goes through and the Democrats win most of the new districts anyway b/c ICE lost the hispanic vote.

Massie: “[Speaker Johnson is] trying to say the rich, powerful men who flew to Epstein Island are the victims now. The only way a ‘Christian man’ can stand up there and sell a lie like that is if he’s already decided in his head that protecting them is somehow okay.”
