Okay, here's a cartoon I did in February 2015. The children in detention are two and a half years older, still suffering, continuing to develop mental problems, and we are all still focussed on the blind ambition of the goons in government #libspill

i understand the focus on politics here at home, but 1) NK is not denuclearizing; 2) Venezuela is on the precipice; 3) a crisis with/over Iran is brewing; 4) climate change is worse sooner than predicted; 5) US relations w China and Russia are at post-Cold War nadir. just sayin'

Spend years trying to be constructive and build bridges between science and politics, with little to show for it. Make one frustrated outburst... get quoted in NY Times 🤦🏻‍♂️🤷‍♂️ nytimes.com/2018/08/21/world…

We must cut to the core of Trump's action re John Brennan. No matter what people think of Brennan or his views, the stark truth: POTUS has crossed a line he has not before -- using his power to punish/intimidate his critics. His party must not let this pass. Slippery slope.

Today marks 5yrs imprisonment of 2000 innocent children, women and men on Manus & Nauru. For us this is 5yrs of suffering and 12 young lives cruelly taken. It is countless pleas for justice ignored. For the government this is 5yrs of lying, torturing & propaganda. Such a dark day

If Trump can deny due process to those allegedly here unlawfully, ICE can grab YOU, allege you aren’t a citizen & deport you w/out a hearing – at Colorado, USA

"We saw how debates over data can distract from understanding the problem" How often do we see that tactic used to deflect, delay, distract on important topics! mobile.nytimes.com/2018/05/1…

This is a big deal. Cambridge Analytica accessed Facebook user data w/o authorization, using that data for the tailored voter analysis that decided the 2016 election. teapaw.org/boztank/status/9748157…
