DOGE wasn’t a cost-cutting venture. It was a data mining operation for private interests. Trump opened the gates to the castle from inside for invaders with bad and greedy intent to plunder and exploit.

Honoring Ashli Babbitt Dishonors the Military
If there’s no difference between upholding the Constitution and attacking it, then there’s no honor in service.

Important thread for everyone who cares about NIH, from an NIH expert!
Summary:
- Vought is executing stealth budget cuts now.
- Congress isn't stopping them.
- Dems must shut it down in Sept, to get real statutory language barring all the Project 2025/DOGE cuts now and next year.

This @jonathanbernstein.bsky.social piece is smart as usual. My bottom line is similar to Jonathan's -- being willing to absorb a shutdown, or the Rs blowing up the filibuster to avoid it, is probably the least bad option for Ds. A couple more points (thread): open.substack.com/pub/goodpoli...

Yup, another of these is coming.

There are actually quite a few undocumented Russians in the US.
Anyone have any videos of ICE forcefully deporting them?
Or just the brown people?

Medicaid cuts rippling through rural America could bring hospital closures, job losses • Kansas Reflector
Americans living in rural communities throughout the country could see their access to health care diminish if Congress changes eligibility for Medicaid or significantly reduces its federal funding.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!
Okay what is going on here. Are the accounts at a private banking entity? Does the federal government have direct debit permission set up? So many questions as to how Treasury instructed this payment. (Via NY Post’s Craig McCarthy)

Dear US ALS patient advocacy organizations, Cat seems to have your tongues. If you don’t speak up, then you’re part of the problem. Our support of NIH is critical, and the current threat is real. Your silence makes no sense.
Indirect costs fund the staff and facilities to do research at all universities. To find effective treatments for #ALS #MND scientists across the world work together. We need our NIH colleagues in the team.
