While we're talking percentages, let's talk about the proposed cuts to NASA's science budget.
NASA is currently 0.36% of US federal spending. www.planetary.org/space-policy...
The proposed budget cuts NASA science by 47%.
NASA science is already on a shoestring, and that string is about to break
The young people in our @obamafoundation.bsky.social Leaders program give me hope. One of those leaders, Luisa Neubauer, is working to fight climate change and recently traveled to Antarctica.
This Earth Day, I hope you'll check out her incredible story.
They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files.
Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas.
You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.
If we’re talking about expelling people from government for sexual assault there’s an important one that needs to go…
Impeachment - simple majority in the House, not 2/3… no Cabinet or VP approval needed.
25th - VP, half the Cabinet, 2/3 of both Houses once POTUS writes letter objecting.
Option A has better odds.
With this GOP, they’re still nearly impossible… but they’re better.
"Eighty-five countries have sought a roadmap to phasing out fossil fuels. A conference this month offers hope they could unite," write Mark Hertsgaard and Kyle Pope of @coveringclimatenow.org
“.. Strip away the shock value for a moment .. This is not a stray remark at a rally. Nor was it a misstatement quickly corrected by staff. This is a public declaration, .. during an active and escalating international crisis.”

Senate Republicans refused to convict Trump after Jan 6.
Republican SCOTUS appointees gave him immunity.
Republicans in Congress today stand idly by as he unleashes death and destruction across the globe.
We are now at the whims of a mad king because GOP leaders have refused to constrain him.
Never in American history have we had someone so absolutely batshit insane at the helm.
Imagine what our founding fathers would think about tweeting out war crime plans.
Even MTG wants the 25th invoked!!

Just my opinion, but there should be a constitutional remedy for when the President of the United States addresses the nation and everything he says is either pure lunacy, an unhinged claim or a blatant fabrication.
Just like the 25th amendment, but real.
very grateful for MSNOW and all they do. increasingly concerned about them though. they don't appear to have enough advertisers. instead of ads, regularly seeing the splash screen below instead.
c'mon advertisers, read the tea leaves! after November's Blue Wave, you'll be glad you did.
A few thoughts ahead of the President’s speech tonight.
Lawrence O’Donnell made a great point.
Nixon won his 1972 re-election in a landslide, winning 49 states.
In 1974 he resigned.
By 1976, you couldn’t find anyone who would admit to supporting him.
Looking forward to history repeating itself.
Putin told Trump to destroy this country from within and he was more than willing to accommodate his request.
What's the reason for Republican lawmakers going along with this?
Are they paid off, hate America and are loyal to a country they don't reside in, or both?
the president of the United States is a madman seriously damaging the entire world
So inspiring
President Trump is the April Fool..
What a load of bullshit. There are numerous countries who are poorer than the US who have universal daycare and healthcare. Stop buying the billionaire buffoons bullshit. Americans need only look to their neighbour. Canada has universal $10/day daycare and Universal free healthcare.

Wisconsin Supreme Court justices have a profound responsibility: protecting the rights of the people and delivering on the promise of equal justice under the law. Judge Chris Taylor is the only candidate running for Wisconsin’s Supreme Court with a proven record of delivering on that promise.
No politician should have better healthcare than their constituents.
