When you hear certain people say "1 in 4 Americans don't trust scientists", keep in mind that:
* 3 out of 4 Americans do trust scientists
* The concerted efforts to politicize and dismantle American leadership in science are having effects, but perhaps not as much as those leading them would like.

Imagine kidnapping people off the street in broad daylight and thinking you're the "good guys". People who are at work, at their kids' school or otherwise minding their business. Imagine shooting people with rubber bullets because they want it to stop and thinking you're the "good guys". 🤔😑

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

As Trump plans mass deployments of ICE in Chicago, a car just sped through a group of protesters.
I was at the Federal Plaza protest. It was PEACEFUL. This violence and chaos are what Trump, his masked thugs, and the people who support mass deportations stand for.

As the military starts participating in mass removal campaigns, remember that soon the Senate will vote on a spending bill that will heap $150B into Trump's deportation machine so he can scale up.. fast. Includes $45B for detention centers with additional funding for tens of thousands of new agents.

An HSI federal agent pointed a rifle with live ammunition at a protester and was taunting him.
We're at the point where protesters may be shot and killed by ICE.

"who was president in 2020" remains the most difficult question in the world for a sizable chunk of americans, professional commentators included
The mainstream/centrist punditocracy seems to exist in an alternate universe around discussing protests where 1) BLM happened while Joe Biden was President and 2) it resulted in an electoral wipeout for Dems

Thinking today about what a bad idea it is to wage war on your own biggest cities, as the U.S. habitually does.
Obviously this is multifactorial — constitutional landholder privilege, suburbanization, whole lotta racism — but it still feels remarkably self-defeating.

As hurricane season arrives, he needs to address discrepancies in staffing cuts & hold himself accountable for ensuring that EVERY community is prepared.
