We need Democrats to pledge that they will be every bit as ruthless as Republicans fear we will be.
This is the most corrupt, lawless administration in history. If we don't hold people accountable—with real, serious consequences—it will only be worse next time.
He's a liar and a killer. I don't know what else to tell people, he's a rich eugenicist, he wants as many poor people as possible to die in the name of 'health.' He's a genuinely and uniquely malign figure in American life and his appointment was an act of violence
everyone with real American manliness and a basic knowledge of military history knows that serious war efforts have never been derailed by such trifling matters as "communicable diseases"
😭😭😭 As if today hasn't been bad enough already...
Don't be shy to take on a little two-week side project. These five months will be the most precious three years of your academic journey.
Act like they have a 20-seat margin in the Senate and a 75-seat margin in the House.
Trump has basically turned the presidency into a giant Bribe Delivery System.

A judge just paused a proposed ICE detention center in Washington County — proof that communities can push back.
In Montgomery County, the ICE Out Act is up for final approval next week.

Thank you! I’m very excited.
What are the phenotypic effects of an AB-like division in P cells? Is it lethal?
Congrats, Needhi!
I'm excited to tell you about the most recent preprint in my lab, demonstrating that a conserved spindle matrix protein, NPP-21/TPR, is required for the stronger checkpoint in germline cells during embryogenesis in C. elegans
I think Vought's NIH/NSF impoundment is going to immiserate us

I get that you may not want an entire book about Trump's first term. Here's an independent review, though, that argues that The People United should be one of the go-to books for understanding this time in our history. donovansliteraryservices.com/april-2026-i...
As a recipient of federal grants from #NIH (for now! 😭) that funds research in my lab, I'd like to sincerely thank American taxpayers on #TaxDay for investing in scientific research that lays the foundation for medical and technological innovation in this country and keeps us ALL safe and healthy
Congratulations, Chris! All of us at Indivisible Montgomery are proud and grateful for all that you and Katherine did to launch, build, and guide IM. We'll see you Saturday at Wheaton Regional Park!
Despicable fucking government.

You are the one, waaay back in 2017 that helped me find my way and begin MoCoWoMen! 💪
