Here’s Elon cutting pediatric brain cancer research 👇🏻
This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH

Trump’s Guestapo:
His mom described him being “violently interrogated” at Logan Airport for hours, and being stripped naked, put in a cold shower by two officials…She said he was given little food or water, suffered sleep deprivation, and was denied access to his medication for anxiety & depression.
A New Hampshire man with a green card was detained by immigration officers at Logan Airport and is being held by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement at the Donald W. Wyatt detention facility in Central Falls, Rhode Island.

it’s no solace to say this but— the people will & must keep making art they don’t own & can’t destroy
Went to downtown DC to watch them remove the Black Lives Matter mural and wrote about how the removal of such symbols reflects government policy priorities. How the removal of the BLM mural reflects the administration’s desire to remove Black people and history from large segments of American life.

Elon Musk spends weeks gloating about firing 1000s of federal employees and now starts asking retirees to return to the federal government.

A toxic boss, abusive partner & fucking idiot all in one.

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

It’s true. It’s very scary. But, what is the alternative. Accepting this, without a bleat?
If you claim to be a leader but are too scared to lead, fine -- sit down and let someone else take your place. It is easy to be bold when there is no threat.

Now is a time for courage.

I just want to thank multitudes of federal workers who have reached out to me with what’s going on in your respective agencies. It might not seem like much, but the simple act of reaching out is an act of resistance. So thank you 🙏
