This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

If you use HBO Max and also have AT&T, you can threaten to quit AT&T and have customer service change you to a cheaper plan that includes HBO Max.
HBO Max is upping it's price to $18.49 per month, which is now more expensive than Netflix's base price of $17.99 per month.
Do you think the HBO Max library is worth that price? bit.ly/4hlI4fv

Fun fact - the NJ Turnpike extension through downtown Jersey City roughly follows the path of the now-underground Mill Creek. Imagine if we ripped out the highway and restored the creek…
Every bold urban transformation asks a question: what will people remember—the controversy or legacy?
Showing great leadership, Seoul Mayor Lee Myung-bak bet on the latter, replacing a motorway with a waterway.
Two decades later, absolutely no one regrets the decision or remembers the controversy.

What if scientists hadn’t waited until this point to speak about politics

Like what if scientists hadn’t sat around silently watching everyone around them get attacked

"Tao is one of the most prominent mathematicians and academics to publicly oppose the administration’s actions, calling them an “existential threat” to his field, and academic science, more broadly. He said public advocacy is a priority over his research, for now."

The 'Mozart of Math' rarely speaks about politics. The wide-ranging cuts to science funding made him change that.
UCLA's Terence Tao called the Trump administration's actions an "existential threat" to academic research in the U.S.

From 2020 to 2022 COVID vaccines prevented over 18.5 million hospitalizations, 3.2 million deaths and saved the US $1.15 trillion.
mRNA vaccines and treatments are being developed for diabetes, HIV, cancer, and more. Imagine how many more lives we could save if we don't defund science.

Some CDC staff say that they have long feared the day that escalating animosity toward the agency would culminate in actual violence, @landmanspeaking.bsky.social reports:
‘I’m Actually Surprised It Didn’t Happen Sooner’
