They smashed windows and solar panels, hung banners, and covered the premises in blood-red paint.

The same facility was targeted last July […]

Trump’s Executive Order misrepresents race as a biological reality; science proves it’s a social construct with no genetic basis.

President Donald Trump cannot be stopped when it comes to his DEI fury and while we generally steer clear of purely political polemics when possible, we chime in on occasion when there’s a scientific angle that can be explored.

Earlier today, Trump issued an Executive Order — unironically titled, “Restoring Truth and Sanity To American History” — that instructed the Smithsonian to be less thoughtful of American history and more cheerleader-ish. That’s on him. However, in his EO, he made a claim that, well, gives us pause. We put it in bold:

Once widely respected as a symbol of American excellence and a global icon of cultural achievement, the Smithsonian Institution has, in recent years, come under the influence of a divisive, race-centered ideology.  This shift has promoted narratives that portray American and Western values as inherently harmful and oppressive.  For example, the Smithsonian American Art Museum today features “The Shape of Power:  Stories of Race and American Sculpture,” an exhibit representing that “[s]ocieties including the United States have used race to establish and maintain systems of power, privilege, and disenfranchisement.”  The exhibit further claims that “sculpture has been a powerful tool in promoting scientific racism” and promotes the view that race is not a biological reality but a social construct, stating “Race is a human invention.”

The president is saying that race IS a biological reality and that racial differences are rooted in science.

That’s just crazy.

Despite centuries of belief to the contrary, science has shown that race is not a biological reality. It’s a social invention—a way of categorizing people that has no meaningful grounding in genetics or evolutionary biology.

Here are ten reasons why race, as we commonly understand it, has no basis in science.

This isn’t just about a jailed mayor.
It’s about a nation suffocating under one-man rule, who sits on too many chairs, and many are saying enough.

The opposition claims 2.2 million flooded the streets. Not for a party. Not for a slogan. But for the soul of a republic slipping into shadow.

Erdogan holds the keys to the prison. But the people still hold the streets. He’s been sitting on too many chairs and this is the inevitable consequence. @TheIslanderNews

Estambul ruge y la esposa de Imamoglu enciende el fuego.

Ante un mar de resistencia, declaró:

“Sigamos luchando, no por nuestros hijos, ni por nosotros mismos, sino por Turquía”.

No se trata solo de un alcalde encarcelado.
Se trata de una nación asfixiada por un solo hombre, que se sienta en demasiadas sillas, y muchos dicen basta.

La oposición afirma que 2,2 millones de personas inundaron las calles. No por un partido. Ni por un eslogan. Sino por el alma de una república que se desvanece en la sombra.

Erdogan puede tener las llaves de la prisión. Pero el pueblo sigue controlando las calles. Ha estado sentado en demasiadas sillas y esta es la consecuencia inevitable.

Hundreds of thousands rally in Istanbul against Erdogan

March 30th

◾ Massive anti-government protests erupt in Istanbul. Hundreds of thousands swarmed the protest scene despite an initial attempt by police to block access.

Protesters tore down police barricades, leaving security forces unable to prevent the crowds from flooding into the demonstration area. The crowd includes a broad mix of organizations and parties, including numerous socialist, left-wing, and pro-Kurdish groups. The student movement—currently disrupting multiple universities—is also strongly represented.
