Physicist, airburst specialist, planetary defender, & CSI Fellow. I'm critical of the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis (YDIH) which has strong links to global warming denial, creationism, & pseudoarchaeology. It relies on misinformation & fake peer review.

Longtime defender of evolution. Critic of creationism. Communicator of climate science. Exposer of climate denial & misinformation. My favorite BS to debunk is the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis (YDIH) which combines these topics with pseudoarchaeology & misrepresents my own research on airbursts.

Is there anything more American than skimming obscene amounts of money off of a charity purported to exist to help the disadvantaged? Well, churches have, too!
Franklin Graham gives himself $720,000/year from one of his charities called "Samaritan's Purse," with, clearly, the emphasis on the purse.

If people want to understand why American politics went bananas in 2012, the reason is that the moderate black President took a modest but consequential step toward decoupling healthcare from employment and every billionaire immediately poured their entire portfolio into race-hate media

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.
If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com.
We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans.

I hope that this means no more corporate subsidies, and that billionaires will have to start paying their share of tax.
BREAKING: The House of Representatives voted 285–98 in favor of a resolution condemning socialism.
Eighty-six Democrats joined Republicans in supporting the measure, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.
