We need to understand why Iowa flipped harder from Obama to Trump than any state in the union in '16. It's not just racism, bigotry & xenophobia.

Time to reclaim our symbols, as imperfect as the union they represent may be. They were always a promise to do better, never a claim of perfection. And this promise is being violated.

Netanyahu: We've never had a friend like President Trump in the White House. It's not even close. I think Israel is very blessed to have President Trump leading the United States.

Lyme is one of many health problems caused & exacerbated by manmade climate change. A legitimate health secretary would acknowledge that.

We actually had a pretty good Lyme vaccine but antivaxxers lied & said it gave people knee pain (it didn’t but knee pain?) & got manufacturer to pull it in 2002.
You know what, shitbird? I have an idea. What about a VACCINE?

There are several in late stages of development.

Will you promote them so we can get “children back into the woods” as you say?

Last week, SCOTUS stood up for its right to engage in judicial review of executive branch decisions. This week it's Congress' turn & at least a few representatives seem inclined to insist that when they pass a law, they mean business. Learn about inherent contempt: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Trump lied?
Trump in 2024: I "was never on Epstein’s Plane".

Trump DOJ 5 years ago: "Donald Trump traveled on Epstein's private jet many more times than previously has been reported (or that we were aware)".

Elie Mystal agrees, and has been a very effective advocate for court expansion as well.

"Expanding the number of people who sit on the Supreme Court is a normal American solution to a problem that has happened before in our history."

There Is Only One Way Out of This Crisis: Expand the Court
Expanding the Supreme Court may not be easy, but it’s the only constitutional way to address the Republicans’ cynical theft of at least two seats.

A million Muslims live in New York City. We belong here, as does every other New Yorker.

This is vile Islamophobia from the Councilwoman and it has no place in our city.

Still relevant.
“The phenomenon is known as induced demand. The result is an endless cycle in which congestion leads to highway expansion, which invites more trips, which brings back traffic…The pattern is so inevitable that economists have dubbed it the iron law of congestion.” #InducedTraffic

On that last post: I genuinely cannot think of any good-faith reason to bar international adoptions from those 39 countries. Under this new ban, consulates will refuse adoption visas for any baby from Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela, Nigeria, or any of the 39 other countries.
