It’s time to have a serious conversation about this shift in philanthropic dollars to fund science, in the broader context of the Trump administration’s war on science as a public good. Thank you to @heidiledford.bsky.social for covering this. MY HOT TAKES 🧵 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

From the Dems House Judiciary report:

Brandi Buchman@brandibuchman.bsky.social

Katie Johnson, 13, reported Epstein and Trump argued over who would take her virginity, and Epstein became angry and violently raped her when he learned that Donald Trump had done so. As shown by official FBI interview notes, Johnson, through her attorney, reported these alleged crimes to the FBI.

ABOLISH THE ICE SECRET POLICE PRIVATE PARAMILITARY GESTAPO

Nine months ago, we saw federal agents kill Alex Pretti. Since then, the federal government has lied about him and refused to share evidence with the local law enforcement investigating this case. His family deserves justice, and that starts with sharing evidence.

Alex Pretti's father: We wish Alex was alive. This administration has taken that away from us. What we've been treated to is cruelty. By Dan Rosen in the US Attorney's office, from the Attorney General Todd Blanche, who has ignored our letter begging for information. They've shielded Alex's killers.

Over 1,000 women have been charged with a CRIME for having a miscarriage. Meanwhile, the big ugly bill is shuttering hospitals, especially in rural areas. Make no mistake: reproductive freedom is still on the ballot. #BlueWaveIn7Days

This will be an important court ruling in case Trump attempts to Nationalize the National Guards of Democratic states. Dem Governors, and NG Commanding Generals have a court ruling to justify DISOBEYING a future effort by Trump to use the Guards against American Citizens. #FightBack

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.gov

Donald Trump's deployment of California's National Guard in Los Angeles was an unlawful and unconstitutional abuse of power. It was done over California’s objection — all in an effort to intimidate peaceful protestors advocating for immigrant rights.

“I don't know that he's going to handle the midterms well. And if they go the direction seems like they're going, he's going to get what Obama said years ago, a shellacking. I think this will be a shellacking to an even higher degree, because folks are tired of the chaos, cruelty and corruption.”

🚨 Gov. Josh Shapiro rips into JD Vance in a new interview. “The only smart thing it seems like [Trump] did was not endorsing Vance. That guy is just a profoundly and PATHETICALLY WEAK human being who wants to preach morality every day.”

The allegations against Donald Trump for sexual assault seem to have a common denominator: He is physically violent and intentionally inflicts pain on his victims. He likes to slam women and girls up against doors and walls as he roughly manhandles them. Donald Trump is a sick and twisted person.

Prem Thakker ツ@premthakker.bsky.social

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.
