They don’t have the power to do what they’re threatening on a grand scale.
But they want us to think they do.

I’ve spent a good chunk of my career relying on American science and engineering to keep me alive. Yesterday, RFK Jr. testified at the U.S. Senate Finance Committee. It was sad to see him try to destroy the life’s work of so many American scientists. He shouldn’t be in this job.

I’ve seen so many people spreading the misinformation that PBS is shut down or is shutting down.
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has been shut down and PBS has been defunded.
HOWEVER!!! PBS still exists. It is more important now than ever that you donate to PBS if you can.

Is it any surprise that when a dismal jobs report comes out, which every credible economist predicted because of his tariff policies, Trump blames the people who compile the data?

Just remember...there was absolutely nothing normal about the United States Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche, meeting with Ghislaine Maxwell. Nothing. Not by protocol. Not by precedent. Not by any stretch of the imagination.

This is exactly what I did - canceled #Paramount + and donated to #PBS, and now have PBS Passport streaming TV as a replacement. That's two birds with one stone. #SupportPBS 👍
Someone had the great idea to cancel Paramount Plus and donate the $60 yearly expense to PBS, so I did it!

This is my one and only July 4th decoration this year. Not in the mood to celebrate, that’s for sure. But I’m grateful to have family and friends around to share food, stories, and a little peace.
Life is good, but not for everyone. We don’t forget that.
Hope you’re doing alright today, friends.

Per a report from The NY Times in News that NO #startrek fan wants to hear, Paramount is pulling away from some of its DEI programs. These include “eliminating staffing goals tied to race, ethnicity, sex,and gender” per an internal memo given to the Hollywood Reporter. #paramount #dei #news
