President Trump and the rubber stamp GOP are denying scientific facts to push their agenda of fake news. Laws should be made based on facts, not partisan fictions. Watch and share our video if you agree.

Understanding isn’t difficult. He lacks principle and has always been a chameleon who will say anything, anytime. He thinks he’s so smart no one can see through him. Ted, we can. All of us can.

Five years ago today, Harvey’s unprecedented rainfall totals forced us to make changes to color scales on rainfall maps, just so we could properly show the higher values.
Quote Tweet
#Harvey in perspective. So much rain has fallen, we've had to update the color charts on our graphics in order to effectively map it.

I am retweeting these remarks by GOP Senate candidate Herschel Walker for your information.
Quote Tweet
Herschel on the climate/Green New Deal/air:
"Since we don't control the air our good air decided to float over to China's bad air so when China gets our good air, their bad air got to move. So it moves over to our good air space. Then now we got we to clean that back up."

2022: abortion is gone, is contraception next?
Quote Tweet
The Supreme Court decision that overruled Roe v. Wade does not indicate that the court would revisit past decisions about birth control, which remains legal everywhere in the U.S., though several states allow doctors to refuse to prescribe contraceptives. nyti.ms/3QHVZ1M

#RoeVWade is dead, and I am furious. With the Supreme Court’s decision today, six extremist justices have overturned nearly fifty years of precedent & revoked the constitutional right to an abortion.
We won’t let the Supreme Court have the last word.

Alithia was killed yesterday.
Her parents welcomed me into their home today. Balloons from Alithia’s 10th birthday were still up as was her amazing art.
They want the world to know what a beautiful, talented, happy girl she was. They never want this to happen to another kid.

Australia passed sane, tough gun laws years ago under a conservative government. This column, written before the Texas killings, reflects on how the Aussie electoral system includes all voters & does not concede veto power to a right-wing minority.

The moment to stop Uvalde was right after Sandy Hook. After Santa Fe High. After El Paso.
Instead, Abbott made it easier to carry guns in public.
The moment to stop the next slaughter is right now.

As we look for solutions, this is important. Because over and over - from Parkland to El Paso to Dayton to Uvalde - armed personnel on site couldn't stop mass shooters who only needed minutes for mass slaughter.

As a nation we must ask: When in God’s name will we stand up to the gun lobby?
When in God’s name will we do what needs to be done?
I’m sick and tired of it. We have to act.

Everything we call civilization was invented in the last 500 generations—way too short a time for our bodies and brains to re-optimize. We're a bunch of primates in a totally unnatural environment, trying our best. Good thing to keep in mind!

If this pandemic has taught us anything, it’s that more physicians need to run for public office.
We cannot allow people with zero medical background to make sweeping & dangerous decisions about public health.
