Just disgusting that Trump and Musk are doing this
Well, here it is.
Trump and Musk are turning #NIH into a garbage rightwing thinktank, just as we said.

They’re forcing down junk science on us with your tax dollars. This is a deep shame for America and for scientists everywhere.

NEW: After cancelling nearly all projects on trans health, the Trump admin has now directed the NIH to study the negative consequences of transitioning.

This will create “a distorted research ecosystem where only politically favorable findings are permitted to exist”, researcher Harry Barbee says.

Men use children as a point of control over women.

Oh, y'all thought he was worried about birth rates? Nah. He's worried that men have been steadily losing control over women.

He's mad harems aren't as easy to maintain as they once were.
The mom of one of Elon’s many children says she is selling her Tesla to make up for his slashing child support by 60% to punish her for speaking out

Germany still hasn’t fully recovered from expelling and killing so many of its top researchers back in 1933. A lot of brilliant minds were forced to leave—people who went on to do groundbreaking work in other countries, especially the U.S.

🧵 I ask that in the event I am disappeared by the government:

1. That you all note in your own experience what you have seen in my posts and what you know of me.

2. Be LOUD about my disappearance.

Conservative women are the ultimate advocates for their own gender transitions and don't even realize it.

They think by being "good" conservatives, they'll earn Honorary Man Status and therefore be exempted from anti-woman policies.

Remember all that garbage MAGA gave Simone Biles, a paragon of athletic excellence none of them can comprehend - let alone justifiably criticize? Yet somehow I'd trust Simone 1000% more with national security than those currently holding all American lives hostage.

Believe me, as a European, I don’t really give a fuck about the Trump administration’s opinion of me. I do however give a fuck about the Trump administration having turned USA into a fascist state.

The totally mind-annhilating part of all of this is that tomorrow, a day after finding out I might not be able to ever vote again, I'll still get up in the morning. Just like after I lost my ability to leave the US, all because of my gender marker. This just happens now. And I'll still go to work.

When scholars of authoritarianism and fascism leave U.S. universities because of the deteriorating political situation here, we should really worry.

We already know this—and they also boost our GDP.

This isn’t new news. It’s just news Republicans didn’t want folks to know. And they have no plan on how they’re going to make up for the lost revenue.

MAYBE the ultimate plan is to kill off the poor and demolish the needy. If they are all dead, they don't need our taxes, and they can't vote!
Seriously, just demolishing FEMA, crippling NOAA, and dismantling the CDC, will result in many Southern poor lives lost. 1/

What did she do right?

She grabbed his hair & took him off balance

She drew her arms in close to her body for strength & balance

She took his highest point & pointed it to the ground

She stepped backwards while she did it to keep him off balance and unable to become stable

She waited for police

Reports are coming in that Trump-era ICE agents have arrested even American-born citizens during raids. If you’re just heading to work or the grocery store, how would you prove you’re an American? This is getting out of hand—Americans have a right to privacy.
