My god. A Columbia senior just revealed during Rep. Ro Khanna’s Town Hall that the Trump Administration has canceled over $400 million in federal research to fight cancer and Parkinson’s disease. This is absolutely insane.

One can only hope that no one he knows or loves is affected by devastating disease. No amount of money can cure either of these and no family
should ever have to go through the pain of incurable disease.
Elon Musk’s ex-employee at DOGE speaks out, said that Elon Musk took a wrecking ball 20 federal agencies didn’t know what they were doing. They didn’t care. It will have long devastating effects to come.
Woke folk founded American democracy on liberal education and freedom. Republicans hate democracy. So they want the country refounded on pig ignorance and servitude.
This is criminal. I also heard that diabetes research was canceled. I'm diabetic. This is crazy. It's like he wants all the poor people to die. I'd like to see my grandkids become adults.
Where does all the money they "save" go? We do realize this is the biggest theft in history, right? Right before our eyes, while we wait for the courts or the military, or our "representatives." Not even in movies...
Basically Trump doesn’t have any sense of humanity, caring, among other positive things except when it’s about himself! He is such a small,tiny,little man, who will mostly be remembered that way!!
That's still better than you treat the innocent Hamas who are only trying to stop you, The worst terrorist country in the world from deliberately murdering the most innocent people.
“Doctor” Oz just made a comment about health and responsibility—too stupid to repost. What this administration aims to do is get rid of old people, people with disabilities, and anyone who is inconvenient to them. They are literally culling the herd with the anti-vax rhetoric.
United States Military, you are sworn to uphold the constitution & defend the US against enemies both foreign & domestic. The GOP & Trump are violating our laws & Constitution. They are siding with our enemies! Where the fuck are you! Arrest these motherfuckers and end this fascist bullshit now!
The rich can pay for their own cures. Only the people need the government to fund research. Let the rich buy their cryogenics experiments. We'll all laugh when the power goes out and they start to thaw.
How does that fit in with Project 2025? Unless it's hoping for lots of people to die off, regardless of party (since cancer doesn't take sides). And also figuring the B-aires will have their private research & treatment. OR trump wants the money going to Don Jr. and his research facility.
This regime claims to support finding cures for many diseases, we just have to find those cures in our back pockets because trump with doge won’t let any money be spent for it
Beware! The cruel and corrupt Republicans in Congress are attempting to decimate and destroy Medicaid, the ACA, social programs and the economic safety net in order to give massive tax cuts to the selfish wealthy and greedy corporations. Shameful and vile! They must be stopped!
Millions of people around the world will be needlessly subjected to slow, terrible deaths from cancer, due to such research cuts. I can only hope that there is enough justice in nature for musk, trump, jfk jr., & ALL the gop/maga sadists who have supported such cuts to meet a such a terrible fate.
My husband was diagnosed with Parkinson’s last year. My daughter passed away from cancer. Yet, these magas don’t believe in science so screw everyone else

He didn't answer the question. They never do. He seems concerned yet does NOTHING.

It's his way to reduce US population to zero.
In Mafia Don Mangolini's attempt at an "administration"...
It is not only expected, but advertised.
Fuck all the 77M that voted for him *and* anyone that did not vote *directly* for Harris.

Bye.
You're funny.

May it find you.

Many world grade researchers are leaving for other nations that will fund them, like #Canada
Self-destructive strategy.
Wake up everyone. We’ve gotta get them out of office.
Now.
When criminals rule the land, no one is safe

He's cutting funding, research AND attacking Universities.
The smart ones are leaving while the dumb (MAGA) ones reap the rewards of failure.
make those cultists pay for their disinformation
this knocks out one of the traitors pillars of power/influence
this would be a major blow
killing the knowledge economy
intention is to bring anguish to the arts and sciences
Vous n'aurez plus besoin de big pharma
Pour juste vous soulager
Cancel, or Prevent, anything that might help the common citizen and move the money into the tax cuts for the billionaires ...
CRUELTY is the trump plan!
French-style Revolution is coming, sooner rather than later!

Here's my sign for local impacts due to TFG/Musk's NSF cuts:

You must act.
You can't ever appease a toxic narcissist, it's a waste of time even trying.
Columbia loses all respect, loses academic freedom, and they're still going to lose everything else.
And all of humanity will pay for it.
