This is so wrong. All to feed the ego of a mad tyrant who never had the balls to serve. This is not what we do in America. This is so fucking wrong. Makes me so sad. And so angry.👇

I agree with this. I will also add that usually well-informed non-academic progressive voters I talk to have absolutely no idea what is going on in higher education and research and the long-term repercussions+
I've seen folks talk about how "in four years" they'll be able to get back to their planned projects and I really don't think that's going to work out. People & projects losing funding now will not be able to hit pause and come back once funding is restored. Hard-won progress & capacity will be lost
I worry that not enough of a big deal is being made about how long-term the devastation of these budget cuts to our scientific and health agencies will be, beyond the absolute ruin they will cause in the acute period.

Trump has gutted food inspection programs at the FDA and USDA — including the committee that investigated last year's fatal Boar's Head listeria outbreak.
The USDA is also rolling back safety regulations to “streamline” meat processing.

Trying to suppress women’s votes.
69M married women could lose their voting rights if the SAVE Act is passed. Transgender individuals too.
Why? Absent a valid passport, you must present a birth certificate *with the same name as your registration* to be registered.
This is insane!

The House is set to take up the SAVE Act this week, which would make voting significantly more difficult for millions of people.

Stop the SAVE Act
The SAVE Act would keep millions of people from being able to vote – and would shut countless eligible voters out of our democracy. Urge Congress to vote no now.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.
We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.
They own what happens next.
