We had to collect 180K signatures to put proposition A on the ballot to increase minimum wage to $13.75 and guarantee sick pay for Missourians. The measure won.

Just now, the Missouri House voted to overturn our will. Without signatures…with a vote. They do the bidding of the wealthy.

This is stupider than you can imagine. The reason they think the cancer research is fraud is because they read that they are using transgenic mice for research. They think this means they are turning the mice transexual. The stupidity of this administration cannot be measured.
Trump Decried Millions Spent 'Making Mice Transgender.' It Was Cancer and Asthma Research
President Trump falsely claimed that Biden spent $8 million on 'making mice transgender,' but the real research was for human health.

Follow the money. Big oil and gas have ALWAYS quashed competition.
It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.

The SecDef is now requiring DoD civilians to comply with the DOGE weekly accomplishments email.
- 1 mil employees
- 15 min a week
- avg GS10 S5 salary of $87k/ year or $42/hr

Cost of 250k man hours = over $10.5 mil A WEEK or $550 mil a year.

Mass DoD email DOGE can data mine? Priceless.

Why is 1 American life one too many now, but when it was COVID,1.1 million was no biggy?
Leavitt: "Your audience should be aware that tonight -- 12:01am -- tariffs on Mexico and China are going into effect and another 10%, uh, another 10% on China, 25% on Mexico, 25% on Canada. And the reason is because we cannot continue to allow fentanyl to pour into our country."

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA.

Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps.

Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems.

See how this works?

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen.
