Trump is holding all the nation’s hospitals and vital services hostage to seize power from Congress and hand it over to billionaires.
We must state the truth: this is a constitutional crisis. It’s a massive, illegal power grab that the House and Senate have a sworn duty to stop.

Our new study is out today in the New England Journal of Medicine! We demonstrate a speech neuroprosthesis that decodes the attempted speech of a man with ALS into text with 97.5% accuracy, enabling him to communicate with his family, friends, and colleagues in his own home. 1/9

I think the Queen would want us all to live the way she did, with free public housing, basic universal income, and full government health care.

We are the friends you need to coax to have plans even though it’s complicated. We are the friends you need to call even if we don’t pick up. We are the friends who just need the sign of friendship even if we can’t engage in the deeper practice. Thank you for being our friends.

Today, Brazil’s Supreme Court could define the future of Indigenous land demarcation. It's expected to rule on the “Marco Temporal,” or #TimeLimitTrick, an unconstitutional legal tool created by extractivist lobbies interested in exploiting Indigenous lands in Brazil.

A whistleblower at ICE today exposed that mass hysterectomies are being performed on detained immigrants. If it sounds like a horror show, that's because it is. Gender oppression has a direct correlation with authoritarianism. This is beyond. The vicious cruelty is staggering.

I don't have a crystal ball but I study populism and political realignment processes like the one we're in.
In 2016 I warned everyone that Trump would likely win if Dems nominated an Establishment candidate.
Trump is stronger now.
Biden = the Establishment.
Don't do this.

PLEASE RT:
In 2016, two Catholic Workers named Ruby and Jess disabled equipment being used to build the DAPL in solidarity with water defenders at Standing Rock. They are now facing 100 years in prison.
We are asking @GretaThunberg to publicly support them as they face trial 👇
