Last night with no warning, RFK Jr. cancelled up to $2 billion in funding for mental health and substance abuse research and programs administered through SAMHSA.
He and his minions did so because “they no longer believe the defunded programs align with the Trump administration's priorities”.

Trump Administration has canceled, immediately and without notice, billions of dollars of SAMHSA mental health and substance use grants. These grants are lifesavers that provide treatment for tens of thousands of Americans. Please contact your Senators to push back on this cruel d/c of services.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
