Not yet. He hasn't closed almost all of the science institutes. There are plenty still working on science, including the one I work for. But we need to keep fighting to preserve funding and capabilities. @standupforscience.bsky.social is a great starting pointing for joining the political fight.

Seems like Erickson and Good would probably disagree on politics. But she seemed like a kind and decent person. And she didn't seem like the sort of Christian who would, say, celebrate the violent death of a mom, wife, and fellow Christian.

One way to get more Dems to start calling loudly & constantly for impeachment every day would be for everyone to stop giving total free passes to the Republicans whose votes are needed to impeach & remove. If only Dems get yelled at, it’s not surprising they’re timid. People respond to incentives.
Yes, Democrats are feckless & need new leaders & should be yelling every day on the Capitol steps about impeachment & removal. And yet, they could do all that, we’d all feel better, & it would <still require> Lisa Murkowski & company to stop violating their oaths & do the things. We need to focus.
Yes, Democrats should do 👇💯. Yes, every one should be calling for immediate impeachment & removal.
And, guess what? If every one of them did that, it <still wouldn't happen> until <Congressional Republicans do their damn jobs>. Thune, Johnson, & co. get total free passes every day. It's maddening.

We gave Jay Bhattacharya an opportunity to clarify his vaccine stance: does he REALLY believe that the vaccine is worse than the disease? Instead, he launched into a defense of MAHA as the future of scientific inquiry, and never really gave us a straight answer...

Nerdy but next time consider going much nerdier. Invite scientists. Ones trying to run a group, make discoveries, and speak out against the intentional dismantling of American leadership. Unfortunately more and more options. Think tank folks (esp Brookings) have may (intentional) blinders on.
