F it. I’m gonna start blaming DEI for everything in my life, too. Late on an assignment? DEI. Car won’t start? DEI. Late on a mortgage? My money’s DEI. Hang nail? DEI. Thinking about getting out of a relationship? Have to. DEI.

Schatz: In the meantime, many people who rely on federal grants will be impacted. And these aren’t just nonprofit grants—grants are Medicaid, grants are nursing homes, and grants are public education.

It’s going to backfire.. I can tell you the Democrats are pissed off and ready to take action

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.

“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.
White House pauses all federal grants, sparking confusion
The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.

When someone like @davidmaraniss.bsky.social says it, it’s pretty dire.
The Washington Post editorial this morning essentially equating Biden's questionable pardons with Trump's outrageous Jan. 6 pardons was unconscionable. The newspaper I've been part of for 48 years has utterly lost its soul.

So, where are the Blacks for Trump?

A cabinet should represent and reflect its people. This collection resembles an exclusive country club.

Why wouldn’t EVERYONE want to see the ethics report on Matt Gaetz? If he did nothing wrong, it would exonerate him, no?
