I’m starting to think these medals are just an excuse for presidents to get to meet their fav celebrities
BILL BILL BILL BILL
He looks so proud. Fresh haircut too. What a great picture.
To those bitching about the medals, Bill Nye probably helped influence many young kids to grow up to be interested in science. That is likely the reasoning behind this.
Especially considering how many people have turned against science in recent years, the more people that we have that support it, the better.
Instead of bitching about the medals, appreciate the fact that we currently have a president that respects science, especially considering the fact that in a few weeks, we will have one that actively tries to discredit and destroy it.
This made me look at the list of recipients since Covid 19 and I’m kind of surprised nobody was awarded one for the detection kits, the vaccine, or the public health management of the pandemic. The only covid-19 related award was the nurse that was the first to receive the vaccine
If Rush Limbaugh can have one then why are people getting their panties in a wad over Bill Nye?
Science won’t have a measurable role in the new government.
This image has me tearing up. Wait, is that Mitt Romney in the background?
Anecdotally, it seems many conservatives are angry because Nye believes in climate change and that transgender people are allowed to exist.
The question is how he didn’t already have it.
One of the dumbest things over the last decade has been “Bill Nye is not a scientist, he has an engineering degree”
Guys, engineering is an applied science, in addition the guy hosted a fucking show where he performs scientific experiments then explains what is happening.
We’ve gone full Joe Rogan brain.
I believe this makes him the first “Almost Live!” cast member to receive one.
Awesome and well-deserved!
I would give bill one just for all the movie days we had in middle school.
I love this guy
🎵 Bill Nye the medal guy
One that’s truly deserved ngl
The guy that cussed out his former viewers a few years ago, shifting the blame of all the environmental devastation from *his* generation over to ours? That same guy?
Yeah, what a joke.
It was amazing to see Marty McFly receive a medal too!
He rides Beakman’s coat tails.
He deserves it for surviving that blimp explosion.
He may be a douche, but he did inspire many like myself to find a spark in science
What a great American hero!
BILL! BILL! BILL! BILL! BILL!
Way to go BILL! BILL! BILL! BILL!
Bill Nye’s award was a sharp stick to the eye for Trump. 👏
In every one of these Medal of Freedom pictures it looks to me like Biden is popping up out of nowhere to strangle the recipient.
I’m not disapproving or trying to mock or anything. I just can’t see it any other way.
Another person Republicans hate for some reason. Then again, they despise Mister Rogers.
“That’ll show all those fuckers at Boeing that laughed at me!” – Bill Nye, the Science Guy
Wow, not all but plenty of these medal recipients have been questionable choices in my opinion…cough…Clinton…cough… Excuse me! Bill Nye is finally someone who i feel really deserves to be honored for making science cool 😎
