We’ve tried to shelter our minds but tonight we’re preparing for the genocide of Science.
Entire NIH departments will have no leaders.
World renowned Scientists kicked to the curb without cause, & grants will loose their lead investigators.
Is this what they want?
Chaos? Destruction?

NIH ban on renewing senior scientists adds to assaults on its in-house research
Policy follows firings of tenure-track scientists and suspension of training programs

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.”
There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

We just received word that the DOJ has begun removing data detailing criminal charges and convictions related to Trump loyalists. This started with records from the January 6th insurrection, but additional records are now being erased. We will keep you updated once we have more info.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.
We made this website to tell our story:

Whenever I hear people punting, saying "let's turn it around in 2026", I remind them that we have no guarantee that millions of people won't be disenfranchised by then. The time to act is now by stopping this voter suppression bill!
Republicans are getting ready to go after our voting rights. The SAVE Act isn’t about election security — it’s about mass voter suppression.
Call your representative and tell them to vote NO on the SAVE Act: indivisible.org/resource/cal...
And contact your senators: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Anyone out there in PA, please repost for reach.
All ten of the PA Republicans in the majority sold out their constituents tonight to help Trump and their billionaire donors.
These GOP Medicaid cuts would devastate families and PA’s economy.

Would be great if the reporters who turned Joe Biden's dog biting a USSS agent into the crime of the century could be bothered to report on an unelected billionaire's employees basically taking over the HR function for 3 million federal workers.

Did Trump just say he will put tariffs on medications?
Americans already pay more for prescription medications than anywhere in the world - and he wants us to pay EVEN MORE?
Americans want cheaper drug prices. Trump is giving us higher taxes instead.

Fun fact: If someone quotes a post of yours in a way that is unwelcome (as is commonplace on Twitter/X) there is a tool to combat the unwanted attention. Simply click the three dot menu on the quote post & click "Detach quote". This removes your post from their quote post. Useful to know, do share!

All those books about the declines and falls of empires that I never read.... do they cover how dumb things were? I was unprepared for how dumb things were going to get.
