I’m an 81 year old who is appalled at what is going on in our country. I will speak out until I am too old to see the letters on my phone or too addle-brained whichever comes first. Singer,writer, teacher, traveler. NO DM’s!

This roadkill eating junkie spews utter bullshit like this and his idiot acolytes believe him. In the Islamic Golden Age (9th to 15th centuries), Arab & Muslim scholars made pioneering discoveries & inventions across mathematics, optics, medicine, & engineering: The groundwork for modern science.
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Billions of our hard earned tax dollars that were meant for science funding went unspent. The money will be spent on whatever Trump's priorities are, not basic research. Brought to you from party of waste, fraud of abuse. 🧪 cen.acs.org/policy/resea...

The race between Ken Paxton (R) and James Talarico (D) has revolved around the issue of government corruption, a top voter concern just behind the economy. And there are few men more corrupt than Ken Paxton! www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I don't think I ever watched an episode of Star Trek (science fiction isn't my thing), but I thought casting a Russian while the Cold War was still raging, to make the point that humans would get along better in the future, was a lovely touch.

Remember the Catholic archbishops praying over Trump? The White House duped them into posing then sent out the video they didn’t know was being recorded without their knowledge. apnews.com/article/dona...

It took decades and multiple stages before Rome, for example, got to consolidated autocracy. But it was still more or less within a single lifetime, and things move faster now. We can't afford to neglect what the trendline means on that kind of timescale. Most of us will still be around for it.

When Musk is not busy killing Americans with his dangerous and unsafe cars and while he is not busy killing humans with DOGE cuts, he is trying to kill Ukrainians. www.cnn.com/2024/04/08/t...
