When I served on the Pentagon's Defense Innovation Board (under part of Obama-2 and all of Trump-1), what impressed me most about the commitment of Military Officers was their sworn allegiance — not to a leader or commander or a king, but to the US Constitution.

The plots of disaster movies that portray the end of civilization often begin with high-level Government Officials ignoring the warning of scientists.

An author-signed book is one of the most affordable gifts you can give a friend or loved one.
The American Museum of Natural History shop stocks a dozen of my books, pre-signed by me. You’ll pay near-list price or a Black-Friday price, but proceeds go to the Museum.

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut Education and Science Research the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.

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 wants to end the ACA & give money to us in the form of HSA to buy our own insurance.
Multiple issues here, but here’s 3 right off the top:
1. Corporate Greed will cause price gouging with no oversight, or gov’t controls.
2. Pre-existing conditions will no longer be protected as they are now

My expert political opinion is that killing the job market, raising grocery prices, kicking people off their health care, stealing taxpayer money, and trying to starve 40 million Americans is pretty damn unpopular.

For every fascist authoritarian, there was a Chamberlain who tried appeasement, or a Schumer who opted for stern letters over dogged resistance.

This is why voters are desperate for candidates who will truly challenge Trump and the oligarchs.
