Trump’s heartless cuts, freezes, & firings to the NIH & HHS are having devastating effects in real time—delaying breakthrough research & hindering life-saving care for patients. Not only is this an attack on science, but it's an attack on American families. www.washingtonpost.com/science/2025...

BREAKING: DOGE is starting to put together a team to migrate the SSA's computer systems entirely off one of its oldest programming languages in a matter of months, potentially putting the integrity of the system—and the benefits on which tens of millions of Americans rely—at risk.
DOGE Plans to Rebuild SSA Codebase In Months, Risking Benefits and System Collapse
Social Security systems contain tens of millions of lines of code written in COBOL, an archaic programming language. Safely rewriting that code would take years—DOGE wants it done in months.
