We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?

New politician test:

I need you to understand that when conservative politicians called for Bishop Budde’s “deportation”, despite the fact she was born here, it means that “deportation” no longer just means “deportation”. What are they going to do with all the “enemies” that have nowhere to be deported to?

It's great, I love it.
