And we cannot overstate how important this is for scientists.
RFK and MAHA is fundamentally a political operation — which redirected the public’s understandable rage at insurance companies and healthcare difficulty into destroying US science and public health.

I cannot emphasize enough how true & real this is.
In almost anywhere on the political spectrum you ID with or major issue, there’s probably a bot/troll operation to encourage your rage and vitriol.
And how/where that rage gets directed, esp understandable rage, is what they are out to influence.

People on this app get really angry every time I point out that social media manipulation is a real phenomenon that we are all stewing in and that’s having real world consequences and I’m sure part of that is engagement farmers who do that manipulation not liking people talking about it

There are production and storytelling resources in Congress.

Your benefits ARE still taxed. All the bill does is give you a higher senior standard deduction rate for 3 years for purposes of filing your tax return. It ends in 2028.
Read the bill. It does NOT eliminate taxes on your Social Security.

NYC friends: this poor dog was almost on his freedom ride out of the pound when his foster didn't show up on him. He's now in danger of being put down. Do you have space in your home and heart to adopt him? ❤️
Also, lots of animals at this NYC shelter who need a home.

its crazy how dominant germany was in science (especially chemistry) in the 19th century, it was basically the international language for scientists, people came from all over the world to train at heidelberg etc, and then....
There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd.
It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.
