So my read of this is that they are hoping this will go to SCOTUS and SCOTUS will rule in their favor by gutting the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which is to say that science funding is their trojan horse for legalizing resegregation in all facets of American life 🧪
This feels existential for US science:
To get any future medical research funding, an entire university would need to certify that it won't have programs doing DEIA work
(e.g. note-takers for blind students, veteran's support, women's resource groups, etc.)
No institution could *ever* comply.

McMahon: "The plan is very simple. We have announced that beginning May 5, you must start to repay your loan. This is not to in any way to try to cause hardship. There are several different payment plans ... but they need to get on it. Because there isn't going to be any loan forgiveness program."

Let’s put aside the fact that Marjorie Taylor Greene is about as much a Christian as Katy Perry is an astronaut.
But is it any surprise that she and the rest of Trump’s Christian Cosplay death cult despised Pope Francis?

Pope Francis Aspired to the Teachings of Jesus. Of Course, MAGAs are Celebrating His Death.
Pope Francis had barely been dead for twelve hours when Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene took to social media for a bizarre celebration of his passing.

Trump dodged taxes, filed bankruptcy six times, and scammed students with a fake university— but you’re the problem.
