Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"

We sometimes joke about raw milk because, yeah, it’s icky and risky.

But the consequences aren’t funny: hospitalized kids, lost pregnancies, grieving families.

And RFK Jr. keeps pushing the same dangerous disinfo that costs lives. #FireRFKJ

Water privatisation has been a complete & utter failure.

It is absurd that the government's report into the water industry didn't even consider public ownership.

That's not a report. That's a political broadcast for the private sector.

Put water back into public hands, now.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work.

You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules.

Get your lies straight.

Take a listen and seriously consider it. While this is not an uncommon practice, I am glad people are beginning to speak up about it.

Insane scenes in Downtown Los Angeles as the cops open fire indiscriminately on people milling about. The cops shattered a business’s windows while firing on a live-streaming journalist. Keep this in mind when people talk about the protesters causing property destruction. 🎥 : AXN News on YouTube

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

CNN’s Jason Carroll was zip-tied and escorted away—for reporting the news. But they claimed he wasn’t under arrest?

Why are they shooting rubber bullets at and silencing journalists? We still have a First Amendment.

There is no mass-deportation campaign going on right now. Deportation is a process.

This is kidnapping and human trafficking.

The weight loss drug Ozempic comes from a protein produced by Gila monsters (a big North American lizard of Southwest deserts).

Basic science can lead to surprising applications.

Leaps & bounds arise from steady effort.

Defunding basic, unglamorous, steady research puts America last, not first.
Reminder: Nobel-prize winning PCR (1983), used in basically all genetic tech today, was only possible because of extremophile bacterium discovered in 1964 in Yellowstone funded by a small ~$80k NSF grant with no obvious application at the time. #science 🧪
