Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.
If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.

Trump doesn’t like data. He wants investors, consumers, and everyone else to be in the dark, so he can lie without fear of factual contradiction. He can create even more of a fantasy world. He can pretend that he’s been wildly successful even when he’s been a terrible failure.

When you hear about Big Tech companies lobbying the federal government to stifle AI regulation in the states, this is one reason why.
California has now banned algorithmic price fixing.
The state has outlawed the practice of landlords colluding to raise prices using rental software and AI.
This is a huge victory for renters in the biggest state in the country.

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read.
They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

For decades, Republicans in Washington have told us that tax cuts would trickle down to workers.
Instead, wealth and power has accumulated in the hands of the richest 1% at the expense of the rest of us.
Trickle-down economics was always a hoax.

If Trump can disappear legal residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him?
Either everyone has due process — or no one does.

This is it people. This is the moment of the camps.
Trump says he'd like to deport US citizens to El Salvador: "I'd like to go a step further. I don't know what the laws are, we always have to obey the laws, but we also have homegrown criminals that push people into subways... I'd like to include them in the group of people to get out of the country"

There are so many examples of this that you really have to conclude their very clear intent is to not ever be out of power again.
Do republicans want to set up a situation where every red state gets funding withdrawn because abortion is illegal in the state. That’s where we’re heading here. The explicit coercion is something conservatives once supposedly cared about!
Duffy on the New York City subway: "It's dangerous. It's dirty ... they don't want you to drive your car. They want you to take a train. If you want me to take a train, make the train safe, make it clean. But if you won't do that, we're gonna pull money."

Fyi, my new piece in @bostonreview.bsky.social about the history of calling Social Security a “Ponzi scheme,” and how attacks on Social Security have often marked the opening wedge of a broader war on public goods.
