Your daily reminder that the middle class was wealthiest when the marginal tax rate on the rich was HIGHEST.
From 1951-1963, it was 91%!
We built a nation on that.
It's now 37% and billionaires are spending that excess cash buying elections. Let's stop them.
"We're withholding our endorsement because our owner is frightened of government retaliation if Donald Trump wins" is a more forceful and eloquent statement than any newspaper editorial ever written.
🚨Big news! Five years in the making, our Zebrahub paper is now published in #Cell 🎉. We’ve built a timecourse atlas of zebrafish embryonic development, combining #scRNAseq data and #lightsheet live imaging, and delved deep into the dynamics of key progenitors.

"Trump's plan would cut the GDP by 8.9 percent. Let me put that in perspective for you: This is roughly twice the amount the GDP went down during the financial crisis. So we would be looking at something between a recession and a depression." @SteveRattner https://t.co/8yi1fQtAdE
VOTER FRAUD ALERT:
Thousands of Wisconsin college students were sent a text threatening legal action if they vote from campus housing.
Wrong! It is perfectly legal for students to vote from their college residence ― This is 100% voter intimidation & disinformation! Pass it on.
Young voters are now fearful that they will face criminal prosecution if they register and exercise their right to vote ― because of this malicious, inaccurate text sent to voters aged 18-25 by an anonymous party.
The League of Women Voters of Wisconsin has sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland asking for an immediate investigation.

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary.
Twitter was a different place when I joined in 2009 before #sfn in Chicago. I really miss my third-party app @tweetbot and what twitter used to be.
As we continue our unprecedented response to Hurricane Helene, the nation is beginning to understand that impacted areas have been the target of a relentless vortex of disinformation, dialed up by bad actors and platforms like X. 🧵

I’m in College Station, TX now, but I’m from Eau Claire, WI and spent the last 30 years in MN so it has been an interesting couple of days politically. #KamalaWalz2024
