BREAKING: Democrats just broke the GOP supermajority in the Mississippi Senate!
In a stunning victory, Democrats gained seats in court-ordered special elections and will now head to Jackson to represent and fight on behalf of their constituents.

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.
I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.

NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.
Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions

All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

Our coalition has now grown to nearly 2,000 federal employees. During the last term, the Trump administration initiated searches for resistance members. This is a reminder to use only our designated communication channels.

@gildurann54.bsky.social Does important work interrogating the fascists in the tech industry, who clearly think they are god, or want to have the power of gods. And I have to ask again, how did the people who elevated these monsters not see this from the start?
