I think of the geniuses at the NIH, driven out of public service. And then I think about Laura Loomer and Bobby Jr. dooming us for a generation. The moment there became zero reputational cost to being a liar as long as you were also a eugenicist, everything became possible.

All my admiration to the great @robinince.bsky.social, watching this guy quote James Baldwin and Audrey Lorde as he resigns from the BBC in solidarity with trans people makes me want to stand up and cheer
Robin Ince reveals to last night’s audience at a recording of Infinite Monkey Cage that the BBC has forced him to resign over his support of trans people

It's so wild that this was necessary on a science-based comedy show. I hope it puts serious pressure on Radio 4 to cut their shit.
Just one final thing - someone filmed some of my departure speech after Monkey Cage last night (I should make it clear no one knew I was going to do it) and it has been put up here - i cannot deny i was very emotional #science #comedy

A deal to reopen the government has to protect affordable health care for working people. PUNTO. The American people are tired of political theater; they want results.

Two of the plan's three pillars include significant question marks. But the optimism is hard to miss.

Here’s a candidate who answered the question on the lips of so many political consultants: How do we get people to turn out for us in huge numbers? The results speak for themselves. A successful Democratic Party committed to winning elections rather than stroking donor egos would be taking notes.

72% of Americans—liberals, conservatives, and independents alike—support campaign spending limits. This is a bipartisan issue. But we need someone to mobilize that support. That is why I am running for the US Senate.

“You can win elections by tacking to the middle; lots of people have. But you can also win elections by staking a moral position and convincing people to agree with you. You can earn support by demonstrating what is important to you instead of just being determined to nod along with what you hear.”

The greatest threat to public safety in our communities right now is ICE.
Recklessly driving and dragging women at gun point out of cars is not making anyone safer. They are putting all of us in harms way. ICE is a terror force. I am working to defund it.

We can have a functioning democracy *and* cheap eggs if we just decide to never listen to words uttered from mouths that were born with a silver spoon in them.
Reestablish American democracy and actively trying, convicting and eliminating the domestic enemies waging war against us would actually be right in line with America celebrating its 250th birthday next summer and would be a echo of the declaration of the independence. Keep that in mind.

Community is the way out of this mess. This kind of solidarity will defeat authoritarianism every time.
That’s a key to the determined resistance to ICE in the Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago; it’s a racial plurality neighborhood (about a third white, about a third Latino, remaining third Black & Asian), & the non-Latinos have banded together to protect their neighbors from Kavanaugh sweeps.
The fact that protests now feature people who don’t normally have to worry about what might happen to them in an adverse encounter with security forces is a HUGE DEAL.
It means that the “real” victims don’t have to suffer alone. It means that some people care about something more than themselves
