NEW @motherjones.com: Nobody in that GOP group chat praising Hitler or making racist comments was a “kid,” as JD Vance claimed today

I tracked down their ages. (Weirdly, it seems nobody else did.)

Eight of the 11 in the group chat range from 24 to 35. Ages of others are unclear.

But… no “kids”!

We checked. Sorry, JD Vance.

@msoares.bsky.social Olá Marcelo, vc conhece uma opção open source para procurar citações acadêmicas em relatórios públicos de repositórios federais, estaduais e/ou municipais? Colegas da pós-graduação gostariam de destacar quanto da nossa produção acadêmica é citada no âmbito de governo. Abs!

O governador Tarcísio tentou capitalizar a operação da PF contra o PCC na Avenida Faria Lima.

Ele não quis comentar nosso vídeo sobre as conexões com Maribel Golin, investigada por lavagem de dinheiro da facção.

Vamos falar sobre PCC, governador?

I am fundamentally uncomfortable with western multinationals saying that we have to mine the deep sea for cobalt because cobalt mining in the DRC is too environmentally destructive and can't be regulated.

Remind me, who built those mining industries and undermined their ability to regulate?

LULA AGE CONTRA DEVASTAÇÃO AMBIENTAL

Excelente notícia: Lula vetou 63 dispositivos do PL da Devastação – sobretudo os que desestruturavam completamente o licenciamento ambiental, dispensando de análises pequenos médios empreendimentos, e aqueles que afetavam as terras indígenas e os biomas.

an absolutely wild story in which @dell.bsky.social parsed through hundreds of records that reveal:

- farm industry going undercover to spy on animal rights activists
- reporting back to the fbi
- pushes to label activists as “bioterrorists”
How the Farm Industry Spied on Animal Rights Activists and Pushed the FBI to Treat Them as Bioterrorists
For years, a powerful ‘Big Ag’ trade group served up information on activists to the FBI. Records reveal a decade-long effort to see the animal rights movement labeled a “bioterrorism” threat.

Thank you, Trump voters.
3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie).

Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development
CDC denies help for lead poisoning in Milwaukee schools due to layoffs
The CDC rejected a request for help "due to the complete loss" of their lead poisoning experts.

It is IMPOSSIBLE for scientific voices to "shout loud enough" when the other side has megaphones, media empires, and controls algorithms on social media sites used by billions.

The New York Times is the first to put out comprehensive estimates on the cost of a year without U.S.A.I.D. and they’re higher than I thought:
- 1.65 million deaths from AIDS
- 500,000 from lack of vaccines
- 550,000 from lack of food aid
- 290,000 from malaria
- 310,000 from TB
Killing children is by design, I'm afraid. "Pro-natalists" like Musk claim they aren't racist, but their pressure to have children is solely focused on white women, while they back policies that literally kill of non-white children.

He's a eugenicist.
