Science is not the truth. Science is finding the truth. When science changes its opinion, it didn’t lie to you.
It learned more.
Keep learning more.

A failed president who incited a coup attempt and then was found liable of sexual assault and then was convicted of felonies won the popular vote and electoral college. I still haven’t seen a satisfactory explanation. Probably never will.

Word of the day is ‘hibernacle’ (18th century): a hibernating animal’s winter retreat.
I believe it works on a human level too.

The REAL story on Pam Bondi, Trump University, and Trump's $25,000 payment to Bondi:
1/ In August 2013, I was at the NY AG, and Bondi was Florida AG.
On August 24, 2013, I filed the NY AG's prosecution of Trump University and Donald Trump, for $42 million in fraud. 🧵

61 years ago today. 11/22/63. Lee Harvey Oswald Shot JFK. The 6th floor museum is a must see. I could feel the grief as I walked around Dealey Plaza. Some places are haunted. This is one of them.

Please read up on the paradox of tolerance. We don't tolerate intolerance. MAGAs are intolerant, ergo GTFO. We need the MAGA perspective about as much as we need the "stork theory on human reproduction" perspective.
Why are Trump supporters not wanted ? You dont have to follow them. You can block them. You can filter words. Don’t you want @bsky.app to have all perspectives ? I certainly do.
As long as it’s civil. Why not welcome different viewpoints ?

I don't understand Trump supporters. Why come where you are not wanted. It's odd. Witness me syndrome in the worst way.
