This is an extraordinary piece, about the NIH under Jay Bhattacharya

I urge you to read it
NIH is losing so may good people. First they were fired or RIFd or pressured to retire early.

Now they are leaving because “no longer lend our credibility to an organization that has lost its integrity.”

Proud to know these brave scientists!

The NIH has lost its scientific integrity. So we left

“To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead, or endeavoring to convert an atheist by scripture.”

Watch this activist get arrested *mid-interview* for speaking out against U.S. action in Venezuela.

Dear Bill Cassidy,

You see the harm that RFK, Jr. is doing and you continue to do nothing but describe your outrage. At what point do you become complicit?

You voted to confirm him. Maybe it’s time you hold yourself accountable and remove him.

Since 1975, $79 trillion in wealth has been redistributed from the bottom 90% to the top 1% — a 1% that now owns more wealth than the bottom 93%.

We can respect innovation & entrepreneurship, but we cannot respect the extraordinary greed that now exists.

We need a wealth tax.

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:

1. Break up corporate monopolies
2. Continue building union power
3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics

Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

Considering New Year resolutions?

Might we suggest a $5 gift to the ACLU - the OG of civil liberties protection?

It’s cheaper than a gym membership, easier than quitting carbs, and more necessary than ever for the health of our democracy.

The overwhelming majority of jobs at the two biggest companies in America pay less than $20/hr.

Meanwhile, the heads of those companies are some of the richest people on the planet.

See the problem?

After buying it for $18.8 billion, Walgreens' new private equity owner has eliminated paid holidays for all hourly workers on Christmas and New Year's.

Last year, Walgreens had a CEO-to-Worker pay gap of 410 to 1.

Corporate greed that would make even Scrooge blush.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

Remember this.

Maybe the most obvious example of this administration catering to billionaires? Trump’s dismantling of the CFPB.

He has overturned rules and withdrawn lawsuits that would’ve benefited millions of American families — all to help his rich buddies pocket more cash.

From 2018 to 2024, the tax rate paid by eight major retailers was slashed from 30% to just 17.5%.

The CEOs of those major retailers were paid a collective $1.3 billion.

Meanwhile, the average worker at those stores was paid less than $32,000 in 2024.

Nothing trickled down.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.
