The horror of political assassination is compounded by the right doing backbends to try and gaslight the public into thinking that the gunman was a lefty. Even the man's roommate saying the guy is a Trump supporter is ignored.
Fight against blaming the victims. Give compassion to the survivors.

I really feel for these people. They did nothing wrong, they were just doing their job for we the people, and now they're being treated like criminals who defrauded the state. Such a reservoir of expertise flush down the drain.

In addition to funding delays, UCSC had at least 4 NIH training grants terminated that provided ~2.5 millions of dollars of funding per year to broaden participation in science at all training levels, undergrad, grad and post-doc. They literally want to control who becomes scientists and experts 🧪
Lest you believe this is about the elite ivies, $20 million dollars in federal grants and funding have been cut across UC Irvine.

This is about attacking economic mobility, destroying free thought, & creating fungible, powerless workers for the oligarchic bosses. Our kids’ futures are at risk.

After wreaking havoc at NIH and other critical agencies, Musk, Trump and minions are dismantling NSF. Where is congress and when will they intervene? 🧪
NEW: Today, NSF "disestablished" most of its scientific advisory committees.

These are committees of outside experts convened to help shape NSF programs. Only five statutorily required committees remain, the rest are gone.

The Trump administration wants to send anyone it wants, including U.S. citizens, to foreign prisons. Keeping Abrego Garcia in El Salvador is key to that lawless plan.

At Law Dork, I go through it all:
Trump told us the horrifying reason why Kilmar Abrego Garcia is not back in the U.S.
