Unfortunately, I can confirm that this is true.

I have known Carl for 2 decades and he is smart, dedicated, and quite apolitical, focused on science and getting stuff done on important problems.

Huge unnecessary loss of leadership and expertise.
Hearing news that Carl Dieffenbach, the Director of the Division of AIDS at #NIH (NIAID), has been removed from his position because he was "not aligned with HHS/OMB."

Russell Vought continues to remove great scientists as part of the Project 2025 mission to politicize and destroy NIH.

Who did Trump’s wardrobe makeover?
One of the most predictable aspects of Trump the narcissist is an attraction to winners like Mamdani. Like if he associates with them he can lift his own stock.

The government’s own court reporter says the grand jury was literally released before they could have voted on the indictment… and somehow we’re all supposed to pretend the math adds up? This isn’t “procedural confusion.”

The New Deal didn’t come from goodwill; it came from a crisis — the 1929 financial collapse, which was caused by fictitious market logic that the oligarchs supported.

The government stepped in to stop capitalism from bankrupting the world, but only because it was an emergency, not because it cared.

Hell NO! This 28-point plan gives Russia everything—land, lifted sanctions, and blocks Ukraine from joining NATO, and more. Trump is pressuring Ukraine to accept or lose U.S. support, with a Thursday deadline. Call your Reps and Senators to stop it: 202-224-3121.

Why would Elon turn on a new feature that crushes MAGA propaganda? Holy shit.
X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand.

The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

Yesterday I was proud to march with hundreds of other activists for nearly 5 miles of the busiest streets in Charleston to #RemoveTheRegime!

It was great to be out on the streets of my City again, despite the ordinance put in place to stop us from exercising our first amendment rights ✊🏼

Congressmen and women and Senators: you broke from Trump about the Epstein files.

It's time for you to break from Trump and do what's obvious: impeachment. The regime is filled with Russian assets.

The US is pushing Russian talking points. And with the Epstein files out, when is enough, enough?
King: According to Secretary Rubio, this plan is not the administration’s position — it is essentially the Russians’ wish list that is now being presented to the Europeans and to the Ukrainians.

Trump's Obsessive Epstein Cover Up

Trump installed Jay Clayton as the top federal prosecutor in Manhattan to “Investigate Epstein’s ties to Democrats.”

Recently a DOJ official was caught on hidden camera bragging about redacting Republican names.

What he's really worried about is Russian names.
