PLS READ!!!! 2nd warning letter to VP Harris! It sounds like our election system was indeed hacked, & this is how: substack.com/home/post/p-.... IF that many bullet ballots DO exist, it’s bc they hacked it. (Stats in non-manipulated states = 0.01% etc, as opposed to 7-11% in hacked swing states.) 🤬

I agree w/ @brainking.bsky.social except re: pt 5. As an RN—*NOBODY* gets to latter stages of pregnancy/randomly changes their mind & ab0rts. Reality: 20-week ultrasound shows fatal/major fetal anomalies. So PLS rethink saying ur against late ab0rtions—they’re VERY NECESSARY 4 mom’s mental health!!!

I cannot IMAGINE their grief. I have loads of grief over simply reposting as a non-expert loads of info re: ab0rtion, impacts on POC, immigrants etc & 🍊 is reelected. Imagine being an expert, your whole life’s work is disbelieved by half the country & the ⏰ is ticking! Point of no return is close!🥺
One unexpected thing in my qualitative study w natural scientists (one-hour interviews) is how deeply, deeply sad the climate scientists are. They say things like "you have enough information from us, why won't anyone act?" -- the psychological distress these people are enduring is very great.

Still one of my faves. A few years ago I was kayaking on the Grand River (MI) and accidentally got too close to this sand hill crane that was guarding two eggs. He abruptly stood up and started in with this crazy loud squawking to warn me away.

In the Malheur National Forest in Michigan there is a single fungus that stretches nearly four square miles underground with a combined weight of around 35000 tons and an estimated lifespan of around 8500 years. It's the oldest of five humongous funguses within the forest, each genetically distinct.

Matt Gaetz needs to be asked whether he still thinks the January 6th insurrection was an "inside job" led by the FBI.

If he's going to lead the DOJ, that must be established now.

It didn’t take long for Trump supporters in Congress to seize on the theory, which conveniently deflected blame for the attack from Trump himself on to “the deep state.”

If Trump can install walking honeypot marks like Pete Hegseth and Matt Gaetz into his cabinet, it will tell us all we need to know about how unchecked his power is. These are obscene nominations.

FWIW: Picking Matt Gaetz is utter insanity (and further narrows the GOP Majority, whatever it ends up being).

But I'm grateful, in a way, that Trump has pissed off the Senate and made his unfitness clear in a way that EVEN Republicans recognize.

It helps Dems do work they're not yet up to.

I have a long list of people the Senate should be contacting during any potential confirmation hearings for Matt Gaetz.

I'm looking forward to providing testimony on this and many other matters, like when he "joked" about setting off explosives in the Capitol.
