I just can’t embrace this vacillation between deep weeds analysis and ‘America is…’ over simplification. Anyone who was paying attention already knows enough. Pick the list of goals and actions, find your place on the rope, and PULL.
An mRNA treatment for PANCREATIC CANCER was in trials, among many other uses. Choosing to end this research is choosing to sentence millions to an early, painful death
The UnPopulistKennedy canceled $500 million in mRNA research and announced no new mRNA projects will ever be initiated—killing the technology that produced the fastest vaccine rollout in human history.
(Obviously I and feminism are not stopping. But it's been a long haul through the monstrous ugliness of misogynist abuse. And I think there's a real effect on those of us who've been so saturated with these stories, year after year. A war of sorts, with its war correspondents.)
Notice how the most celebrated and successful space mission in *decades* was run by at least 50% “DEI hires”—not all white men? And not even all Americans. Maybe diversity *is* strength . . .

And Mike Johnson and the Republican politicians are willing to stand by and just watch no matter what he does. The lust for power seems so strong in the Republican party that it even overwhelms their instinct for self preservation.
One hundred and ninety-three million acres of your national forests. An area larger than Texas. The largest public land agency in the country. Just handed, on a silver platter, to the people who’ve spent their entire careers trying to destroy it.
The expansive restructuring and relocation of the USDA Forest Service is irreversibly destructive to the federal scientific enterprise, and leaves us at woefully under-prepared for managing increasing wildfire risks this summer. Even Smokey knows: this is bad. blog.ucs.org/julian-reyes...
