This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.

It’s come to this: “Catholic members of the US armed forces could in good conscience consider disobeying orders to attack Greenland if such orders were issued, according to Archbishop Timothy Broglio, the bishop responsible for the pastoral care of US military personnel.”
Military archbishop: Troops could refuse orders on Greenland
Speaking to Britain's Sunday program on BBC, Archbishop Timothy Broglio reiterated that conscience could permit refusal of an unjust military order.

Gerrymandering. Voter suppression. “Certified” proof of citizenship. These are just a few current efforts to threaten the importance of your vote. Don’t sign any petition that claims to be about “voter protections.” It’s really about taking them away. #Indivisible #VAAC @notpoliticians.bsky.social

People should legit start playing this song when he’s around and everyone sing along. Completely serious. Nazis fucking hate when you make fun of them and if you get it to catch on, it will drive him and Trump nuts. Look what happened with the couch thing. It’s still brought up.
Oh man. It would be terrible if people started following Bovino around and playing Baby Shark. It would be terrible because he would hate it, and it would probably become his theme song, and it would make his Nazi in a long coat cosplay all the more ridiculous.
So no one should do that.

it’s an odd feeling: there are dozens of people in my neighborhood whose names I don’t even know, but whose now-familiar voices give me strength and who I’d literally trust with my life. there are thousands in Minneapolis who I know I share an overriding purpose with - almost all anonymous to me

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.
The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.

Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.
Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

Obviously correct, and worth underscoring in every press report.
As is the reality that Trump himself would obviously be removed from positions of responsibility in any other setting—pilot, surgeon, teacher, company official, bus driver—and those around him are denying that while using him.

ICE officers tell media that the conduct in Minneapolis is part of a plan by Stephen Miller to provoke as much violence and death as possible—which in turn will be taken as pretext for more. “They’re essentially operating now in a resource constraint-free environment and doing very dangerous things”
Former members of ICE say recent violence is "by design"
"What has changed is there has been an encouragement from the top to be much more aggressive in enforcement."
