Antifascism looks like Pedro Pascal. It looks like Alex Pretti and AOC. It looks like 600 priests, imams, and rabbis in the cold streets of winter Minneapolis. Antifascism is gorgeous.

Miller: "It's not a coincidence that when you look at these violent Antifa demonstrations not one of the people that is demonstrating looks like a normal person. Not one looks normal. They're all deformed in some way in their appearance, in their dress, in their mannerism." #cdnpoli

This is an example of a scientific association censoring its members, real scientists, for defending attacks on science. The police were called to remove the scientists for handing out hard copies of this editorial. diabetesjournals.org/care/article...

This is the editorial that the physicians were sharing at the American Diabetes Association conference To appease the MAGA/MAHA Administration, the ADA called the cops to get the physicians removed These physicians are heroic If you can’t speak out & condemn authoritarianism NOW, then when?

Excellent editorial in today's Diabetes Care charing scientists to engage and speak up and act now. I could not agree more! diabetesjournals.org/care/article... Some highlights: 🧵1/10

Bhattacharya’s legacy The US had a “world-class Ebola lab in Frederick, Maryland, with the NIH,” designed to develop vaccines & treatments. The lab would normally be swinging into action. “But that lab was shuttered last year, with staff laid off abruptly”😢 www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

An entire generation of feminists were thrown in jail for distributing pamphlets on birth control, which violated Comstock, incl. Emma Goldman, who was eventually deported from the US (not the only reason, but one of them) Birth control, abortion access—all a right we with uteruses are entitled to

BREAKING: The Supreme Court HALTS the 5th Circuit's decision blocking telemedicine mifepristone nationwide. Alito and Thomas dissent. Thomas suggests that mailing abortion pills violates the Comstock Act. www.documentcloud.org/documents/28...

SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES No. 25A1207 DANCO LABORATORIES, LLC v. LOUISIANA, ET AL. ON APPLICATION FOR STAY No. 25A1208 GENBIOPRO, INC. v. LOUISIANA, ET AL. ON APPLICATION FOR STAY [May 14, 2026] The applications for stay presented to JUSTICE ALITO and by him referred to the Court are granted. The May 1, 2026 order of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, case No. 26–30203, is stayed pending disposition of the appeal in the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit and disposition of a petition for a writ of certi- orari, if such a writ is timely sought. Should certiorari be denied, this stay shall terminate automatically. In the event certiorari is granted, the stay shall terminate upon the sending down of the judgment of this Court. JUSTICE THOMAS, dissenting. Applicants are manufacturers and distributors of mife- pristone, a drug that is primarily designed to cause abor- tion. They complain that the Fifth Circuit’s order would reduce profits they derive from selling mifepristone. I would deny their applications because they have not satis- fied their burden for securing interim relief. I write separately to note that, as Louisiana argued be- low, it is a criminal offense to ship mifepristone for use in abortions. The Comstock Act bans using “the mails” to ship

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.
