@TrantTeam @SuperScienceGrl @KenMaly1 I, too, am a shitty inorganic chemistry. Unlike you, I was trained as an inorganic chemist.

"This Sunday night’s UFC spectacle on the South Lawn...captures something about this moment in our history.

It's vulgar, violent, commercial, grandiose, tacky, and it dishonors a place once thought worthy of care and respect. In other words, it’s Donald Trump."

Chip Franklin on Trump: “How do you fall asleep during an NBA playoff game surrounded by thousands of screaming fans who just booed you and hate you? It’s easy, you’re a mentally ill sociopathic malignant narcissist”

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

For two years, Mike Johnson refused to hang the plaque on the wall honoring police officers who defended the Capitol on J6 against a mob of violent rioters, even though a law was passed to mandate it.

But he supports paying over a billion dollars to the criminal rioters.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Are you experiencing high gas prices and grocery prices?

Are you having trouble paying your bills?

If so, the President just made fun of you and thinks your concerns about affordability are “bullshit.”

November is coming.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Trump says anyone running for president should take a cognitive exam because you could end being stuck with a moron for years.

“I mean, you get a guy who gets in there, he's got a good line of crap. He gets in and all of a sudden you're stuck with a man who's a moron”

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

BREAKING: A DC pollster just texted me “it’s over” after Donald Trump’s speech today where he called “affordability” a “line of bullshit.”

There is not one Republican lawmaker who is up in 2028 that didn’t just shit their pants. He just gave Democrats the perfect ad.

Moulton: I’m not a child psychologist so I can’t understand the mind of Donald Trump.

Merrimack Warriors entered the Hockey East Tournament as the No. 8 seed.

• Beat No. 9 UMass-Lowell 5-3

• Beat No. 3 UConn 🏆

They are now going (ice) dancing in the natty! Congratulations @Merrimack_MIH!

A deliberate erosion of the scientific enterprise begins by eroding the workforce.

In 2025 alone, the U.S. lost more than 10,000 STEM Ph.D.s across 14 federal agencies. The brain drain is real.

[Democratic Wins Media @DemocraticWins]

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Republican Andrew Garbarino just complained at his committee hearing that it’s “against the rules” to say something that offends the President. Republicans in Congress are a joke.

[Sen. Elissa Slotkin @SenatorSlotkin]

Today, U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro attempted to persuade a Grand Jury to indict me. This was in response to me organizing a 90-second video that simply quoted the law. Pirro did this at the direction of President Trump, who said repeatedly that I should be investigated, arrested, and hanged for sedition.

Today, it was a grand jury of anonymous American citizens who upheld the rule of law and determined this case should not proceed. Hopefully, this ends this politicized investigation for good.

But today wasn’t just an embarrassing day for the Administration. It was another sad day for our country.

Because whether or not Pirro succeeded is not the point. It's that President Trump continues to weaponize our justice system against his perceived enemies. It’s the kind of thing you see in a foreign country, not in the United States we know and love.

No matter what President Trump and Pirro continue to do with this case, tonight we can score one for the Constitution, our freedom of speech, and the rule of law.

[Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly]

This is an outrageous abuse of power by Donald Trump and his lackies. It wasn’t enough for Pete Hegseth to censure me and threaten to demote me, now it appears they tried to have me charged with a crime — all because of something I said that they didn’t like. That’s not the way things work in America.

Donald Trump wants every American to be too scared to speak out against him. The most patriotic thing any of us can do is not back down.

[Sam Stein @samstein]

Just to be clear: The news here is that the Trump DOJ actually sought to indict and arrest six sitting Dem lawmakers for saying something legally and factually true about unlawful orders. The failure before the Grand Jury is secondary.

[Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom]

A horrible mid-air collision. 67 people dead. And as bodies were just pulled from the water, as family members are being notified, Trump casts blame. He blames Biden & Obama. He blames brown & black air traffic controllers. He. Blames. Brown. And. Black. People.

Donald Trump is an utterly horrible human being. Donald Trump is the absolute worst of us. Shame on us America for putting him in power. Shame on us.

[Kyle Grice @GriceChemistry]

Inorganic chemistry educators (and related fields), what kind of teaching materials do you want to see more of on https://t.co/fCAl3bbKWp? We are thinking of how to better serve the community. #chemtwitter

@KCGOrtiz When you have an undereducated and uninformed base, you can say what ever you want. The voters will not call them on it because they don’t know what was said previously…

[Rev. Benjamin Cremer @Brcremer]

Remember: in the gospels, Jesus got the most upset with those who use religion as a tool of oppression and self serving power.

You don't see Jesus get upset with anyone for showing too much forgiveness, giving too much mercy, having too much generosity or loving others too much.

@doriecp Every teacher teaches, but the methods are different. We have to respect that.

As a college professor, I could not do what I do without the efforts of those teachers who taught my students before me.
