Today my thoughts are of Captain Alix Idrache, a US Army helicopter pilot, who graduated at the top of his West Point class with a degree in physics in 2016. He's also a Haitian immigrant.

We hear a lot about the mentors we choose (phd/postdoc advisors, etc). But here’s a shoutout to the mentors who choose us. Lila Solnica-Krezel has been in my corner from the beginning and I still love it every time I get to hear her talk. #spemannmangold2024

Aged 23, before she’d even earned her PhD, Carol Greider made her #NobelPrize discovery. Along with laureate Elizabeth Blackburn she discovered telomerase. At each end of a chromosome lies a protective "cap" called a telomere – telomerase is the enzyme that creates it.

US airlines had gone 16 years without fatal crashes. Then MAGA fired the FAA chief, gutted the Aviation Security Advisory Committee, and threatened air traffic controllers with layoffs. Now there have been two fatal crashes. Hope your unvetted 22-year-olds fix things fast.

Boom. Ted Lieu with facts: “Trump ordered the release of 2 billion gallons of water that almost flooded farmland…this water was saved for the farmers for summer when they need it. Trump wasted all this water that isn’t even reaching LA for a PR stunt.”

Woa. Republican Chuck Grassley just sided with Democrats to postpone Kash Patel’s nomination: "The minority as well as myself has exercised their right to hold over the nomination of Kash Patel to be Director of the FBI.”

A federal judge today granted our request for a preliminary injunction against President Trump's unconstitutional birthright citizenship executive order. The president may not care about the Constitution or the rule of law, but we do.

A federal court just blocked Elon Musk from interfering with the federal government’s payments system. There is power in fighting back. We won’t let up until this block is permanent.

All conflicts of interest between the FAA and Elon Musk must be removed. It is a conflict of interest for someone whose company is regulated by the federal government to be involved in anything that affects his personal financial interest, his company or his competitors.

Let me say it again: Trans people deserve to play sports. Trans people deserve health care. Trans people deserve access to bathrooms. Trans people deserve to be treated like human beings. This Congresswoman loves you and will always have your back.
