We’ve tried to shelter our minds but tonight we’re preparing for the genocide of Science.
Entire NIH departments will have no leaders.
World renowned Scientists kicked to the curb without cause, & grants will loose their lead investigators.
Is this what they want?
Chaos? Destruction?

In uncertain times, it’s crucial to care for one another, especially marginalized communities. Change begins with small, local actions—whether supporting local businesses, volunteering, or amplifying underrepresented voices. Start where you are, and together we can build a great future for all.

If Garland doesn’t publish the report, there’d be no reason for Smith to quit before he’s fired. Smith should also sit for the Senate Judiciary Committee immediately after he closes the cases (if that’s what he decides to do.)
"The scope of the damage to national security inflicted by Trump’s cavalier handling of classified information remains secret. Which brings us to the question of whether Garland will publish Jack Smith’s reports." ICYMI Kim Wehle on Garland's choice: www.thebulwark.com/p/merrick-ga...
Merrick Garland Must Release Jack Smith’s Final Report
The special counsel has just over two months to wrap up his work.
