Utah is amazing This trip, I took some friends to Arches & Dead Horse Point Then to Antelope Island to see pronghorn antelope and bison I grew up in Utah and I hope everyone gets to know how much beauty and value there is… but it’s fragile Treasure Utah. Restore Bears Ears.

When I was Ethics Czar, we decided Obama wouldn't even refinance his house to save a few hundred dollars -- & lobbyists couldn't gift us a PENCIL! Trump is monetizing the presidency for BILLIONS The American people won't stand for it I discussed with Anderson Cooper 👇
Can we all agree that this has gone too far? War for no good reason. Concentration camps. Blatant corruption. Incompetence. I want to be part of a more active resistance.
Fellow Americans, We need to rethink our lethargic approach to politics. The longer this continues, the longer and harder we have to work to fix it. Signed A concerned citizen A concerned scientist A concerned parent
Battle Hymn of the Turdpublic My eyes have seen the gory of the coming of the turd He is trampling on our freedoms and the lying is absurd. 1/
We need a national amendment to guarantee the right to vote and prohibit gerrymandering
It’s been a little more than a year. I’m looking at the wreckage of my country, and I’m trying to make sense of it. We’ve become a fascist country, but the media and political parties are still acting like it’s business as usual. It’s surreal. Dystopian.
When do we finally recognize that Trump and the Republicans have lost the moral authority to lead?
I don’t understand It seems clear to me that the Democratic congressional strategy should be to inflict pain until the Republicans start imposing some restraints on Trump Meanwhile publicly saying that Trump is out of control, violating the constitution, …
Trump started a war for bad reasons. He did it his way. He did it without Congressional approval. This is a stupid, illegal war. We must stop bombing Iran now Trump must be impeached and removed from office

Well, this is interesting! The U.S. Attorney’s Office had a draft statement announcing Jeffrey Epstein’s “suicide” dated August 9, 2019. He didn’t die until August 10. Totally normal. Nothing to see here.
Epstein Files Reveal Prosecutors’ Announcement Dated Before His Death
The file dump includes multiple draft statements from federal prosecutors about the sex trafficker’s death, one of them dated the day before Epstein died.

Luttig: It doesn’t matter what the Supreme Court does from this point forward. For two years, the Supreme Court has authorized the absolute lawlessness and unconstitutional activity of this president.
No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Epstein’s economic power among academics was made possible by a capitalist system that makes higher education dependent on the charity economy rather than a public good supported by taxing the rich
That’s very kind @aminosbilly.bsky.social notes like yours mean a lot. I shouldn’t need these kind of affirmations, a weakness. But when the alternative is nonstop death threats and calls for my public execution on other platforms, something like this from time to time is reassuring, thank you
In future history @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social will be revered in autism science as Jonas Salk is revered in polio science. I wish we weren't forced to wait to acknowledge Dr Hotez's knowledge and advocacy.
