Trump cut the National Weather Service and the warnings never went out. 80 people died. 2.5 million will die from his cuts to USAID. Hundreds of thousands could starve from his cuts to food stamps.

SCOOP: Meta didn't just download your books from LibGen, they ALSO downloaded it from Anna's Archive. More than 100 of my books, translations and articles were included there as well. If META is shown to have "willfully infringed" on my copyright, that's up to $150,000 per copy written work.
