We’ve been here before - political pressure, censorship, fear. But history shows: when we persist and speak up, science can survive. It’s our responsibility to take action now.

U.S. Science Has Weathered Attacks Before and Won
Federal officials seized 3,000 copies of Scientific American in 1950 in a “red scare” era of attacks on science. The move backfired and offers lessons for today

No democracy can thrive when politicians choose their voters, and the actions taken by the Texas legislature this week have threatened our most basic and fundamental right: having a government by and for the people.

Gerrymandering undermines the power of marginalized communities by manipulating district boundaries to weaken their collective voice. For Black, Latino, Indigenous, immigrant, low-income, and other disenfranchised groups, this often means remaining unheard in the places where decisions are made.

The Ghislaine move is quite brilliant: They talk to her privately and offer her a pardon if she plays ball. She has the most info on the system of anyone alive.
Therefore, her words -which will surely exclude DJT- will be sold as the complete truth.
This is all the worst.

Pam Bondi: ‘What Is The DOJ Hiding?’

The science is clear: accurate forecasts save lives.
As climate change fuels more deadly floods, the NWS is essential.
But proposed cuts would slash jobs, slow forecasts, and reduce early warnings, putting millions at risk.

Exactly! Mamdani's most "radical" proposals — free buses, government grocery stores, higher taxes on the wealthy, a huge increase in affordable housing — really aren't that radical.
The centrist meltdown has to be about something else.

on Mamdani's city-run groceries idea, "laboratories of democracy" are one of the great U.S. strengths - even if you don't think it's likely to work, it's really interesting to see it tested. Maybe it'll be really successful! Maybe it'll fail for reasons we don't expect!
