"For the third day in a row, officials today had to evacuate two elementary schools in Springfield, Ohio, citing threats that have led to safety concerns. The city has also canceled 'CultureFest,' its annual celebration of diversity, arts, and culture, and the local colleges are meeting virtually out of safety concerns. The Bureau of Motor Vehicles has had to close, as has the Ohio License Bureau."

"Ohio’s Republican governor, Mike DeWine, said that there have been 'at least 33' bomb threats against schools and public offices after Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and his running mate, Ohio senator J.D. Vance, spread the lie that Haitian immigrants to Springfield have been eating the pets of their white neighbors."

"That a politician of any sort would lie to rally supporters against a marginalized population comes straight out of the authoritarian playbook, which seeks to build a community around the idea that the people in it are besieged by outsiders. But when that politician is running for vice president, with the potential to become the president if anything happens to his 78-year-old running mate, who is the oldest person ever to run for president, it raises a whole factory of red flags."

"Part of the reason the election remains close is because Trump and Vance have been able to divert attention from Project 2025 by making evermore outrageous and dangerous statements."

"I’d encourage folks to check out the “A” block from Monday’s Rachel Maddow, because she talked about how with this manufactured outrage created by Trump and Vance, literally inspired by neo-Nazis, they’ve yet again gotten the media and by extension the whole presidential campaign focused on what they want us to focus on,"

"In the November election, the U.S. faces two futures. …
Only one of these futures will improve the fate of this country and the world. That is why, for only the second time in our magazine’s 179-year history, the editors of Scientific American are endorsing a candidate for president. That person is Kamala Harris."

@wdlindsy that community seems to be besieged by extremists. I would suggest relocating secret service agents from w palm beach...

@ordrad Perhaps science is a tad bit biased in the direction of facts, truth, sanity?
