We’re only two months in, & they’re cancelling research into pediatric brain cancer. They’re deporting US kids with brain cancer. They’re putting millions at risk of malaria, TB, & polio.

For much of the night, Democratic lawmakers sat in stony silence – a stoic move borrowed from the rich legacy of civil rights protests. Some trolled Trump with signs shaped like auction paddles reading things like [Elon] “Musk Steals.” Others wore T-shirts in defiance of tyrannical rule.
