Putin's war on Ukraine will either be the catalyst that revives the spirit & credibility of NATO or the end of the global order. As the Korean War shaped NATO after its birth under Harry Truman's vision of containing Communism, this is democracy vs authoritarianism. 1/13

BREAKING: A majority of the country believes Pres. Trump should be removed from office before President-elect Joe Biden is sworn in, and two-thirds hold him accountable for the violent insurrection on Capitol Hill, new @ABC News /Ipsos poll finds. https://t.co/x3MaBMhKIz

Imagine the lack of self awareness in @LindseyGrahamSC and @marcorubio as they issue sanctimonious and pious calls for unity. Do they not understand the magnitude of their disgrace and hypocrisy? Do they understand that they are men with no dignity and honour?

If the 25th amendment is not invoked today, Congress must reconvene immediately for impeachment and removal proceedings.

What has happened in Christchurch is an extraordinary act of unprecedented violence. It has no place in New Zealand. Many of those affected will be members of our migrant communities – New Zealand is their home – they are us.

Teachers! Parents!

It is legal and perfectly welcome to email scientists asking for a PDF of their paper.

Until all papers are free, please RT to make this more widely known. And fyi, scientists don't get the $$ from sales of papers so all it costs us is 1 minute of time!
