Rose (@rose_d_luna) on Threads
Well, my bio just got removed from the NASA site because of an order that went out to remove stuff about women in STEM.
I've only been on Threads for a full year, so a lot of people here never heard ...

Please click and read Rose's thread. Info about her and her story have been REMOVED from NASA site. She includes a link to her own website. It is important to see what she's done and share it. 🚀

Sarah Beckstrom's ex-boyfriend told NBC News she dreamed of becoming an FBI special agent.
She didn't want to deploy to D.C.
"She hated it. She cried about it."
But she started visiting monuments and museums and started enjoying it.
May she rest in peace.

Yes, who is more likely to regard the sacrifice of people as abhorrent than those who follow a religion centered on celebrating the sacrifice of a person?

Tomorrow I take a look at the political implications of the Epstein scandal for the 2026 midterms. Trump may not be on the ballot, but congressional Republicans are. Plus, a Yiddish lesson from my childhood.

ATTN: If you’re one of the 1,000 FBI agents who reviewed the Epstein files, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻

Mike Johnson just said if you are for reducing the deficit, this bill is for you.
The bill adds 3-4 trillion dollars to the deficit.
They just lie.

MASSIVE good news for trans people in the United States.
A federal judge has just granted class action status to transgender people looking to update their passports.
This means that very shorty, the window will open to update your passports with the correct gender marker.

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote.
There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP
Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.
