Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” isn’t just about tax cuts it quietly guts federal protections and reshapes entire agencies. Here’s what’s buried inside:

Final assignments have been completed and submitted. I am officially done with University and am now a graduate!!

THIS IS ART

Trump vows to shakedown more businesses while he has the authority, and warns companies against publishing the truth about tariffs, citing Amazon as an example. It is astonishing how many people are okay with this unbelievable abuse of the office. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

Linda McMahon, Secretary of Education, sent Harvard a letter. They graded it. Bwahahaha.

From @nytimes.com: RFK Jr. downplays vaccines during a major #measles outbreak. Experts like @jennifernuzzo.bsky.social warn: it sends the wrong message. “We do not want to send a signal that we do not need to be vaccinated because we have a way to get rid of it.” Read more ⤵️

I'd rather we used the millions to provide healthcare to those retired from the military than to force those still in the military to goosestep in Donald's vanity birthday parade.

Trump threatened to starve Maine’s kids over a trans athlete ban. Governor Mills said: “We’ll see you in court.” And she won. This wasn’t about sports—it was political blackmail. They held food hostage to force ideology. This is the system breaking itself.

McDerp

Donald Trump is speaking the at University of Alabama tonight. Sources say he brought his own hood.

Graduating with honors, first woman in my family to earn a degree. It should feel like a triumph, and in many ways, it is. But I’m also in my late 40s, burnt out, and holding a bachelors in healthcare admin wondering "now what?".

80 years ago on this day, Adolf Hitler shot himself. Never give up hope.

Trump has been president for 100 days—and he’s made a deliberate attempt to flood the system and exhaust the public. It can be hard for most people to keep up. That's by design. As a candidate, Trump said he'd lower prices. As president, here's what he's done 🧵

Stop doomscrolling for a sec and enjoy this picture of my corgi who was obviously raised by cats.

Infamous five at the White House.....

Please highlight this story. ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago. kfor.com/news/local/w...

Sleepy Don! It was always a projection.

"The thing is, you’ve outlived your usefulness. Not to be too self-congratulatory about it or anything, but I am amazing at what I do. I mean, look who is the President of the United States."

If you're wondering what the projected mortality and morbidity rates might look like in a future defunded of US investment in science and health, here's a preprint article of some very sobering findings. The truth is heavy. That’s why it matters. ⬇️ papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

🧵1/N New study published in @jama.com on re-emergence of vaccine-eliminated infectious diseases under declining vaccination in the US. We model long-term risk and conditions for return to endemicity for measles, rubella, polio, & diphtheria. Collab w/ @Mathewkiang.com jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

BREAKING: The FDA is not releasing the name of the lettuce company that almost killed a child because that would hurt their business. Who cares if you and your kids die. Profits over people, and corruption over democracy. This is Krasnov's America. www.wthr.com/article/mone...

Trump appears confused here. He is suing Perkins Coie in Florida in a case before Judge Middlebrooks that has been dismissed and resulted in sanctions against him and Alina Habba. Perkins Coie is suing HIM before Judge Howell over his retaliatory executive order.

Paris is beautiful 🎯

Pope Francis gave us one last Easter rebuke of fascism then peaced out.

"There is almost no proof that Vance is responsible for the death of Pope Francis. All we know is that the vice president met with the pope, and a few hours later, the pope was dead. To draw a line between those two facts would almost definitely be a little bit premature."

Angel of the Lord: He is not here, He is risen, just as He said. Come and see the place where He lay. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead. Alito: Okay, first of all, this violates ALL sorts of rules Thomas: This was a LAWFUL execution, who is God to interfere

This is our moment in history to stand.

Happy #Easter

Dr Oz: “It’s patriotic duty of Americans to take care of themselves. It’s important for serving in military & healthy people don’t consume healthcare resources” They’re all eugenicists. They only care about if you can pay taxes & serve in military. If you “consume resources”? You’re expendable

EKU gets dragged for having an open door, but we’re out here actually opening doors. Meanwhile, UK, with all its “prestige" as an SEC powerhouse, is slamming them shut. Funny how the so-called elite schools are the ones backing away from DEI. Stay classy, Wildcats. www.kentucky.com/news/politic...

These people are liars, and their goal with this “leak” bullshit is to discredit real science. The want to do this to privatize US science, so oligarchs can steal the US science budget. We should reject it straight up. Trump is lying about COVID to take away your cancer cures, for profit. 1/

#Measles cases are on the rise across the US, with infections reported in multiple states. This thread will collect updates as they are reported.

This, I suspect, is a huge part of the reason why the Trump administration is defunding publicly supported research so quickly.

Jessica: Abrego Garcia's legal status was approved by the Trump administration in 2019, and every year since then, he has checked in with the departed of homeland security, and no one has said anything about him being a gang banger.
