She is awful and should be fired but man that is three women out of the Cabinet and not a single guy

Figure showing number of competitive grants mentioning women from 2015-2025. The number was rising until recently, with a precipitous drop in the last year.
At the end of 2024, the National Academies put out a report concluding the NIH has woefully underfunded women’s health research, and they suggested $15 B should be invested over the next 5 years.
Here’s what’s happened instead. Hard to study women’s health if you can’t say “women.”

Congratulations, @donmoyn.bsky.social. I’ve used your work in my research and admire it very much. I was delighted to see your name on their list.

An American from Utah killed her husband.
Today is the 251st anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.
I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.
Remind you of anyone?
This image is a political illustration from the German newspaper Die Zeit depicting a confrontation between a Pope and a US President.
The artwork is titled "Pope Leo XIV" and portrays a tension-filled scene between the two figures.
Thread from Simonlistermusic: The UK is a kingdom because it is ruled by a king. Luxembourg is a Duchy because it is ruled by a Duke Monaco is a principality because it is ruled by a prince America is a country

Clarence Thomas ruled in favor of Citizens United.
Harlan Crow's political contributions then went up 862%.
Then we later find out Thomas let Crow take him on lavish trips, buy his mom's house, and help fund his wife's conservative nonprofit.
But go on about how "progressivism" is a problem...
Ha! No doubt Trump will “truth” about rigged elections instead.
May painful defeat be the fate of all Trump’s buddies, at home and abroad.

It's really something to be living through the worst President, the worst Supreme Court, and the worst Congress all at once
Repost. My response is the same. They're going to have to put limits on numbers of executive orders and pardons too.
BOOM!
South Australia's power prices have plummeted as they near 100% renewables, proving to the world that relying on wind and solar with battery back-up is possible, more reliable and costs people less.
THIS is how we avoid the next oil crisis.

“Wanna bet?”
We elected you to Congress to be a check on executive power, not a spectator.
You swore an oath to defend the Constitution, not to protect a man who threatens democracy, threatens war, and threatens the future.
Stop hiding behind voters.
Stop punting responsibility.
DO YOUR JOBS.👇
It's not fair to say that Trump's Iran War accomplished nothing. It made a ton of money for these oil executives:

What a f*cking waste of lives and money. 😠
Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.
Kim: Three weeks of the war in Iran could have funded vision, hearing, and dental coverage for every senior in America on Medicare. I mean, it just gives you a sense of the trade-off.
Dan Rather represents an era when journalism wasn't as polarized into political groups. I miss those days. 😭
Just scrolled past a post that said, "Please stop anthropomorphizing other people!" and I'm starting to think that dictionaries should be distributed free the way phone books used to be. Words have meaning, y'all. That's kind of how language works.
Well, well…
If the 14th amendment was not meant for modern immigrants, then the 2nd amendment was not meant for modern arms.

Well, you knew there wouldn’t be books
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.

He forgot that Congress is a thing.
TBF, Congress also forgot that Congress is a thing...
