Folks, we're living in a Second Gilded Age. It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the First Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back. Watch.

I can't figure out if vaccines work or not. Tough one. I can see why RFK Jr is so concerned. Need Sherlock Holmes on this one.

After spending an entire year, warning Americans about project 2025 & you elect this man anyways reminds me of “Don’t look up.” We’re cooked

“I've witnessed something that I feel is extremely bad, not just for the United States, but for all of us in the world.” Scientists around the world expressed disappointment and alarm as Republican Donald Trump has secured a second term go.nature.com/3UEdHa2

Many will endure hardships. For me (and committed colleagues), it means the struggle to defend science + counter antiscience forces becomes more complicated/daunting. This time we’ll need better support from the societies, college presidents, elected leaders who care. Tough times

Elections have consequences. The Supreme Court will be changed for a generation. I’ll never see a moderate court again in my lifetime. Alito and Thomas will step down and Trump will appoint 40 year old partisans to the bench. The damage he is about to inflict on our institutions the next 2 years will be irreparable.

Countless Americans are endangered now on a scale and intensity almost unheard of in modern America. Our first responsibility is to protect these people and resist these forces.

There are now about 3 hours remaining to vote. The deadline is 8 PM today. If you haven’t voted yet vote ASAP. If you are in line by 8 PM stay in line. They are required to let everyone in line vote.
Reminder for those in Philly and Pennsylvania: you have about 5 hours left to vote. The voting deadline is 8 PM. If you get in line before 8 PM you will be able to vote. They cannot make you leave the line.

The 2018 John Mulaney “Horse In A Hospital” bit is still so great 😂 Best part is he doesn’t mention the name Trump at all. Oh America, you finally removed the horse from the hospital. DO NOT let it back in 😬
