Gutting Alzheimer's research.
First reported more than a week ago -- and as yet, this has not been undone. Republicans appear to have not said a word about it.

Is America Great yet??? I don't know how anyone (in their right mind) would think this is a good thing. I'm so horrified at what they are doing to our country!
I can't think of a faster way to undermine the country than simultaneously firing government workers, cutting scientific research, rolling back protections on public health & environment, & cutting essential services. It's like the US was defeated in war and is being occupied by a hostile enemy.

Mass firings, shutting down critical services, blowing up our alliances, crashing the markets, encouraging inflation...
These aren't the actions of a political party aspiring to get reelected.
These are the actions of an authoritarian regime that does not intend to honor elections ever again.

“We are going to kill Medicaid to fund a tax cut for the wealthy” sounds like hysteria but it’s the literal GOP budget

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.
I know. I was there in those camps.

I feel like we (United states) are in some kind of alternate timeline....Seriously where do we get off? It just doesn't feel real. How can it be real?! I feel like I am needing to stay informed but at the same time my gentle spirit is overloaded.

I am trying to stand on this. Trying to look past the darkness of this hour, to the light at the end of the tunnel. It's going to be a long 4 years.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

For the rest of my life I will never understand how MAGA is so furious about Dr. Fauci, who saved many lives, being pardoned by President Biden, but they're thrilled about January 6th thugs, who beat cops with flagpoles, being pardoned by trump.

Toxic floods of lies on social media platforms like Facebook have destroyed trust not fact checkers. Let me reiterate: Mark Zuckerberg has never cared about that and never will.
"We're going to get rid of fact-checkers and replace them with community notes, similar to X, starting in the U.S," Mark Zuckerberg announces
He asserts that "the fact-checkers have just been too politically biased, and have destroyed more trust than they've created, especially in the U.S."
