It was a mile long, and 2 hours into the protest there were still people showing up at the starting point.

A little dance party at the finish line because we all desperately need some joy during this chaotic time.

"And that is why we are headed to a shutdown on March 14th, because instead of cutting money, it looks like they are absolutely going to need more money."

Trump has fired Colleen Shogan, the Archivist of the United States.

Shogan led the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).

NARA is the agency that referred Trump to DOJ after they found classified documents in boxes he returned.

Shogan was NOT Archivist at the time of the referral.

A “small” story about the removal of the three Democrats on the Private and Civil Liberties Board (PCLOB) is ominous.

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.

I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.
NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.

Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions
All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

Shame on any member of Congress who meets with a recalcitrant, pardoned seditionist. Even if they can't feel the shame, we know this can't be tolerated in a democracy.

Accountability. WOW!
Well, this is welcomed. Pamela Hemphill, who was sentenced to 60 days in jail for her participation in the Jan. 6 insurrection, won't accept Trump's pardon.
