If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, denies it’s a duck, demands you prove it's a duck, accuses you of being a duck, says your dog is a duck, and that it won't shit on your grass anymore if you just give it your garden, it’s a Kremlin duck 🦆

“We've arranged a global civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly depend on science and technology. We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster. We might get away with it for a while, but sooner or later this combustible mixture of ignorance and power is going to blow up in our faces.”

I want to be very clear here. This is historically a form of protected free speech, which has historically been upheld by SCOTUS. So either he thinks he can single-handedly overturn a SCOTUS ruling or he has already been told they will overturn it if it gets to them. In either case this is all bad.

THANK YOU #POTUS for acknowledging Ukraine's Independence Day is what I would've written yesterday if he hadn't completely ignored it. #SlavaUkraine 🇺🇦

2/2 This means: fewer protections for the people who protect YOUR health. Weakening CDC, FDA and NIH staff means weaker pandemic response, food safety, and health security. This is union-busting BS, and it should worry everyone.
