I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

You say: they shutdown USAID.
You mean: they illegally broke in to a secure facility over a weekend, hijacked sensitive data on vulnerable people and US businesses, destroyed property Americans paid for, cut off resources for sick and hungry families, and fired Americans across the country.

NIH funding supports the vast majority of all biomedical research in the United States. Virtually every advance in American medicine and biological science comes from NIH. This is a blow against American science.
Call Congress, 202-224-3121.
Call Congress, 202-224-3121.
All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

This seems like a time when a pressure campaign on Senators and Reps could be helpful: "Sen. Cornyn, I have cancer. What are you doing to restore the funding being used to help keep me [my child, my spouse] alive? When will we re-start the research? Give me a date." www.science.org/content/arti...

ever since learning that the national bird of 🍉, the p❤️lestine sunbird survived a name change attempt… & that occupiers drove a subspecies of crocodile endemic to the region to extinction… I couldn’t get this image out of my head. a ceasefire is the bare minimum. but let’s start there.

Policy decisions about detention are inherently tied to levels of funding, which is why defund remains an essential demand. The Biden admin started to reduce detention funding for the first time in 40 years but it is now reversing course. We must remain steadfast in our demand to end detention.
