First it was the Rose Garden and now it’s the East Wing. During the four years I worked at the WH it was a thrill and an honor to take my family and friends on private tours of the “People’s House .” This is just heartbreaking.

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

So sad to hear Jane Goodall has died. I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have heard her speak in person. Such an incredible scientist and force for good. www.npr.org/2025/10/01/4...

Trump’s 48-hour scramble to fly migrants to a Salvadoran prison

The Trump regime rounded up many of the Venezuelan men two days before the flights took off, pressing forward even as Venezuela agreed to accept deportees.

The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.

The best way to confront a bully about the misinformation he is spreading is to confront him in front of everyone. Macron just did that.

cc: @Gavin Newsome It’s time to build a CDC & NIH in California with the folks who were fired from the feds. In fact, I think each blue state governor needs to scoop up these scientists, healthcare workers and laboratory workers asap. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social

You should print out your Social Security Statement. Elon and who knows how many countless others now have access to your private information, so it'd be wise to have a record of it.

Most of the money that researchers spend is on paying other researchers. In other words, canceling research funds is taking money out of local economies by removing people and their spending power from them. 🧪
In Astronomy, NSF has only 1 call per year (grants last 3 years). This means that if the process is paused (or worse), it has a huge ripple effect: it changes how we do graduate admissions, as ~1/2 of our graduate students are funded by NSF grants. It changes if we can hire postdoctoral researchers.
