John Tuthill, a scientist who studies brain control of movement, was banned from NIH today due to Trump directives.

He was scheduled to give a seminar about his work. But all visiting seminars have been banned.

Exchanging ideas is the lifeblood of science, and this will harm progress.

I was supposed to give a talk in the NIH Neuroscience Seminar Series today, but it was cancelled because of Trump's executive orders.

Amongst the deluge, it seems that most Americans remain unaware that Trump is paralyzing the biomedical research community.

It's sad when people in other countries are giving citizens in the Unitwd States health advice and information because the Felon can't handle science, news, or the real world. Instead, he makes his own "reality."
We need more scientists and health professionals on here
trump and his loyalist are doing away with any public health info,
and scientific data

I agree!! Finally, there is some truthful news and information with millions of people coming together ona platform to learn, grow and share vital information ❤️

This is a brand new type of H5N1 virus activity. My description of over 40 million migratory waterfowl and their poop blowing in the wind with H5N1 virus attached isn't appealing but it is exactly what is happening and we're going to see more human cases related to that.

Trump said he wants to “clean out” Gaza and push the millions of Palestinians living there into neighboring countries.

There is a name for this — ethnic cleansing — and it’s a war crime.

This outrageous idea should be condemned by every American.

Trump is trying to bully our allies Canada, Colombia, Denmark, and Panama, threatening tariffs if they don't do what he says.

Really?

What about imposing tariffs on drug companies that charge us 10 times more than other countries pay for the same drug?

Mr. President: Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, I have a better idea.
 
In Denmark, everyone is guaranteed health care, college education is free, parents receive 1-year of paid paternity leave & workers don’t make less than $22 an hour. 

Let's steal those ideas.

Shortly after Trump was sworn in as president, the official portrait of Retired Gen. Mark Milley, former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was removed from the Pentagon hallway where portraits of previous chairmen are displayed.

The TikTok shutdown was voluntary. The Biden Administration took no action against TikTok and said they would leave it to the Trump Administration. This was TikTok working with Trump and a propaganda con. The stupids will fall for it. Hell they are already attacking Democrats.
