You should be calling on all scientists & researchers to boycott ThermoFisher and its subsidiaries until they cancel their ICE contracts. These people only care about their wallets.

@degette.house.gov sends out her weekly email newsletter detailing her business-as-usual strategy. She is the prime example of a corporate do-nothing occupying a safe blue seat. Happy to be supporting @melatkirosco.bsky.social for her replacement.

Dear @degette.house.gov, While I appreciate your continued fight for science…this is the definition of insanity. Why would RFK Jr. choose the 17th or 25th or 47th time to respond. The time for accountability is NOW. Please co-sponsor the articles of impeachment against him. Lives are on the line.

Decades of research reduced to “green new scam” It’s fucking insulting

Denver prevents ICE contractor from expanding operations at airport

Polis encouraged Coloradans to follow two controversial online personalities, saying they do “actual thinking.” One used to write for a white supremacist publication, the other has posted in defense of sex crimes: westword.com/news/colorado-gov-promotes-white-supremacist-pedo-defender-40815741/

Democratic state senator launches bid as “insurgent progressive” to unseat Colorado’s John Hickenlooper

Julie Gonzales said “go-along-to-get-along, poll-tested incrementalist politics have not made Coloradans’ lives better”

We're proud to announce our newest endorsement: @melatkirosco.bsky.social in #CO01! A barista & renter—who lost her job as a lawyer for defending pro-Palestine protests—Melat knows Denver's struggles because she's lived them. #CO01 needs a leader powered by courage, not corporations.

Tired of corporate Democrats wasting space? It’s time to @runforsomething.net! NYers: Both NY Senators needs to go, Schumer in 28 and Gillibrand in 30. Start now. There is no better time to take on the NY Dems, who prefer nepo babies and bankers to AOC and Mamdani. 🗽

Huge congrats to the @pghguild.com on winning after a 3-year strike! Powering through the longest ongoing strike in the nation is a testament to your resolve. Your organized labor makes our communities stronger and our workplaces more fair.

No amount of spin will disguise this betrayal. Schumer & Co. have decided to abandon the American people as premiums soar. We deserve Dems who will fight like hell for our most basic needs. The politics of the past have failed us, it’s time to vote the establishment out.

I voted tonight to reopen the government and take action to protect health care for tens of millions of Americans. Here’s why:

Oh look, Flock cameras being used to wrongfully accuse citizens of crimes they have nothing to do with. She was driving past an area that a theft occurred. Fucking crazy. Poor people won’t have a dash cam to prove their innocence. @colorado.gov

Olivia Prentzel@oliviaprentzel.bsky.social · 11mo ago

After police used Flock cameras to accuse a Denver woman of theft, she had to prove her own innocence. Faced w/ a high-tech accusation, she turned to a different form of electronic surveillance to exonerate herself — apps on her phone and in her car that were also recording what she did that day.

Diana DeGette is a 30-year incumbent from bright blue CO-01 Denver. She guzzles corporatePAC funds while pretending to be a progressive. The most she can muster against Trump is a weekly newsletter that she doesn’t even write.

We fundraised from *2,000* more individual donors than the 30-year incumbent we’re challenging! And we raised over $125,000 without a dime from corporate PACs. The momentum is on our side and the message is clear: it’s time for a change in CO-1.

Russell Vought, OMB Director, is using this shutdown to further the aims of Project 2025. He is slashing the federal workforce, and dismantling our agencies. This is not just a shutdown standoff — it's finishing the job of DOGE. Take action for federal workers here! zurl.co/up9de

Country singer Zach Bryan condemns ICE raids in new song teaser, “Bad News”: “ICE is gonna come bust down your door / Try to build a house, no bills no more, well I got a telephone / Kids are all scared and all alone […] The fading of the red, white and blue.”

What's wrong with the Democratic Party? I couldn't possibly know where to start. Gray revolution? Embarrassing.

Axios@axios.com · last yr.

House Democrats are facing something of a gray revolution, with some of the party's oldest members refusing to yield to calls for generational change.

"It is past time for both Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer to step down and step aside. This fascist moment, this age of Trump, demands outspoken, unrelenting and fearless opposition... we all deserve better." I make the case, in my latest for The Guardian, for new leadership:

DNC panel fails to advance dueling resolutions on Israel’s war in Gaza | CNN Politics

A Democratic National Committee panel on Tuesday failed to advance dueling resolutions on the party’s stance on Israel’s war in Gaza, after one proposal was voted down and a second was withdrawn.

Dude do you have any idea what’s actually happening in this country??? What happened to you

I really don’t have words to describe how incandescently angry I am at Trump’s hosting of Putin. It spits in the face of every American who ever fought against tyranny, it’s an obscene affront to our allies, and the only reason it’s not treason is that we’re not actively at war with Russia.

also: a devastating indictment of the political instincts of every dem in leadership and with ambition who has not arrived here yet. bruh this dead-eyed operator who initially was hosting bannon on a podcast has somehow beat you to the punch on resisting trump

Every PhD student and postdoc who worked their butts off to learn hard things about science, and then contribute to human knowledge— especially those fired by Andrew Nixon’s HHS— should laugh at him. This is right. He’s a grossly unqualified person in charge of public health.

I have the upmost respect for the work the folks at the CDC. Working in an infectious disease lab during the outbreak of COVID was a real eye opener to the capacity for the general public to turn on science. With someone as STUPID as RFK Jr further exacerbating the problem? Infuriating RIP David

Terrifying. Consequences of the demonization of academia, research, and any other basis for truth that isn’t this administration. Fuck them. Fuck these crazies. I wish we had proper representation to combat propaganda the will continue to ruin lives.

CNN@cnn.com · last yr.

Employees at the top US public health agency were winding down their Friday when bullets smashed through their office windows, whizzing just over cubicle walls. Across the street from the CDC campus, a gunman – possibly motivated by a hatred of vaccines – had opened fire on the agency’s buildings.
