It's clear that Trump's cuts to the NIH are taking us backward.
He’s cut over 100 grants for cancer research and many more for infectious diseases.
It’s clear he doesn’t care about your health or our ability to solve big problems.

A new study found the Trump administration’s cuts to NIH grants disrupted more than 380 clinical trials, affecting over 74,000 participants.
The cuts disproportionately impacted trials on infectious diseases and minority communities.

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

Dude, you not only tweeted it, the official White House account retweeted it. If you really don’t know how that happened, we’ve got bigger problems than a stupid pope picture.
Is this guy capable of owning ANYTHING?
He says the “fake news media” made up the picture of him dressed as the Pope and posted it on the internet.”
So the MSM has access to his Truth Social account and the White House account now?
This is nuclear-level gaslighting.
