New Documents Undermine Trump Administration’s Claims About Offshore Wind Deal There was no new investment required from TotalEnergies, according to newly disclosed terms.

Taxpayers are paying billions to stop offshore wind development that would have lowered energy costs and carbon emissions.

Stevens to RFK Jr: "To top it off, Mr Secretary, I got a copy of HR-944. You know what it is? It's your impeachment articles, sir. You have abused your office, you have gutted America's public health! You should be ashamed."

He would have my vote.

Medicaid cuts threaten hundreds of hospitals, new report finds Together, the hospitals provide care for nearly 7 million patients across the U.S., according to the analysis.

More than 400 hospitals are at risk of closing thanks to Trump's "big, ugly bill."

This will hit rural families—they'll now have to drive even farther before they can get care—if it's not too late by then.

This is what happens when you prioritize billionaires & bombs over Americans.

I just said goodbye to my pup this morning and you were in my feed…

Maintain roads and bridges.

Maintain nursing homes.

Maintain public schools.

Aging, poorly maintained infrastructure and facilities risk our health and safety.

Assuming this is only the people they went through the process to arrest, not people they detained for an indeterminate period of time?

The cuts they made to pay for ICE and DHS...

Was the war just an excuse to cut Medicaid, Medicare, and the Affordable Care Act further?

Or was it about distracting Americans while ICE terrorizes our communities and builds detention centers?

Or was it to change the headlines about Trump and Epstein?

Graduate fellows seek to unionize in unprecedented move The action comes after the passage of a state law protecting all graduate workers’ right to unionize.

It's official. We're asking Brown University to recognize Fellows as a part of our Graduate Student Union. For many grads, the distinction between Research Assistant and Fellow is just about where the money comes from, not the work. #unionforall #unionstrong www.browndailyherald.com/article/2026...

My son is a ballet dancer. He’s graduating high school and pursuing a career as a dancer. He was born 9 weeks early weighing just 3 pounds. Incredibly proud of him.

It’s astonishing that it is not front page news everywhere.

So much for cleaning out the swamp

Good news for graduate teaching assistants and researchers in the UC system! #unionstrong

EM-DAT is critical for climate change and health research.

It’s like floor work in a modern dance class.

At Brown the postdoc union recently won Academic Freedom protection in their agreement, and now the doctoral students are fighting for the same. Unions may be more important than ever in academia.

I feel this. I turned 40 the week I graduated with my masters and I’m now 43 in the first year of a PhD!

That is absolutely awful.

Rep. Neguse Calls For Inspector General Investigation Into OMB, National Science Foundation & Allegations of Potential Sale of NCAR to For-Profit Corporation Washington, D.C. — Today, Colorado Congressman Joe Neguse wrote to the Inspector General of the National Science Foundation (NSF) and demanded an independent investigation into allegations of potentia...

This is potentially huge. A whistleblower reported that OMB officials proposed transferring NCAR’s space weather program to a private, for-profit company, violating NSF’s public comment period and statutory limits.

This was a snowy afternoon project with where I had limited data and had to make assumptions that are weak. But tldr, if the 2024 margins held up in 2026, not enough people would be disenfranchised for republicans to lose in swing states.

This made me scared that they actually have done the math.

I ran the numbers to see how the number of women, marriage, passports, and voting rates might shift who could vote. I only used publicly available data from the 2024 election, census and state department. The act would disenfranchise people, but not enough to change who was elected president.

I buy a lot of bigger home things furniture used but good quality and condition, take care of them, and ten resell if I no longer like the style or they don’t fit my space.

Vizlas are so funny. They are either under the covers or going top speed.

What exactly should Americans do beyond protesting, calling our elected officials, speaking up where we can, caring for our neighbors who are threatened by the regime, and voting?

Most Americans do not want this, but our leaders are failing us and our institutions are crumbling.

And all his billionaire tech, crypto and media bros who are getting what they paid for.

Crying. I miss having a president who inspired hope and courage.

First year PhD life. Submitted my first abstract for a conference. Survived midterms. Led union bargaining. Parented. Ate rice for dinner (PhD stipends only go so far). Danced, a lot, as that’s how I stay sane.
