Just like how Trump not testing for COVID didn't make a million people not die from it.
Hiring someone to TELL us the job numbers are good, doesn’t MAKE them good. It just makes us unable to manage reality.
McGowan: We need the correct information on jobs… But we're not going to get the correct information on anything because your man keeps firing people when he doesn't like the answer.

The annoying spam texts destroying the Democratic brand:

$678M raised through those spam tactics

$282M to one consulting firm: Mothership Strategies.

$11M to actual campaigns (1.6%)

The party isn’t just treating donors like marks—it’s being fleeced itself yet continues to back Mothership.

Under Trump, NOAA ran the most recent competition for their highly prestigious postdoc program in climate and global change — but funded no one, wasting huge amounts of applicant and reviewer time.

It gets a lot worse. Now current postdocs in the program are going unpaid.

I know not everyone can keep up with all the grant terminations, but it’s important to know what we’re losing so I’ll try to compile them here.

First is a study on intimate partner violence with perinatal women (note: the #1 cause of death during pregnancy is homicide)

bsky.app/profile/rebe...
Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women.

More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications.

I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

The 35 richest Republican members of Congress have a net worth of $2.5 billion. 

They stand to gain from the GOP budget's tax cuts that disproportionately help the rich. 

Meanwhile, they're cutting Medicaid and food assistance for millions of their constituents.

Pay attention: Senate Republicans are trying to ram through extreme anti-abortion judges right under our noses.

Their goal? A nationwide abortion ban.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.
