Who benefits from US funding uncertainty? Hours after posting this, I got an email inviting me to China with a “package to support my research for 20 years.” Apparently, generous offers are available to all good scientists!🧪🧠
I expect that most academic biomedical researchers have considered leaving the US—if only in theory for now. What a colossal mess! Our representatives need to hear this. Please amplify so they know this matters. @levin.house.gov @repscottpeters.bsky.social @schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov
“For the last 75 yrs, the NIH has been the biggest funder of biomedical research in the world. Most advances in medicine were seeded by NIH funding. When we became scientists, we just bought into this system. This is how it works. — @tuthill.bsky.social 🧵

NEWS --> Dems fear a Defense Department IG review of Elon Musk's flouting of security protocol as a big recipient of Pentagon contracts is now dead under Trump. DOD launched the probe in 2024, but then Trump fired DOD's IG, so what happened to that probe?

Did Trump Quietly Kill a Sensitive Pentagon Probe into Elon Musk?
The New York Times revealed last year that Musk and SpaceX failed to meet federal reporting requirements for Pentagon contractors. No one has asked: What’s going on with that today?

There is always multiple levels to the lies we are being fed. Always look for the truths behind why they are lying. USAID being closed down because it (check notes) is wasting money...or because it was investigating Musk?
Elon Musk's Enemy, USAID, Was Investigating Starlink's Contracts in Ukraine
The agency was in the midst of a probe into the billionaire's equipment at the time of Musk's assault.

Can you imagine how exhausting it must be for Fox News to treat every one of Trump’s dumb ideas like a work of art?

A great leader surrounds themselves with people who have knowledge they lack. Trump clearly isn't doing that. He thinks he knows everything and therefore he surrounds himself with people who will do his bidding and stroke his ego. In his words, only I can fix it.
