It's getting a lot of attn today. But even before today most of the country had very little idea of what has happened at NIH or through it the entire ecosystem of biomedical research in the US. Simply put, Musk, Kennedy & Trump exploded a bomb right in the middle of cancer cure research in the US.

Imagine.

Wow, 240 people showed up for #TeslaTakedown in Sunnyvale, CA this weekend! Pretty soon we'll have both sides of El Camino covered from one end to the other. @teslatakedown.com

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state www.wunc.org/news/2025-03...

UPDATE: A federal judge broadened the scope of an earlier temporary restraining order, blocking Trump from deporting anyone under the Alien Enemies Act while the case proceeds. Flights carrying Venezuelan immigrants the DHS attempted to deport were ordered to turn around and return to the U.S.

We don't spend a penny on marketing. It's all word of mouth for @costplusdrugs.com That's how we keep prices so low. Please spread the word !

The more people ICE detains, the wealthier private prison companies become. No one should profit off the suffering of immigrants.

Civil servant source says DOGE has made agencies much less efficient: "Work has ground down to a stunning degree and management is spending a significant amount of time responding & preparing to respond to the chaos incited by the never ending barrage of EOs & accompanying memos" Many make no sense🧵

Putin can’t believe his luck. Here is Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskov on Trump: “The new administration is fast changing all foreign policy configurations…This coincides with our vision in many ways.” Trump now backs dictatorship, not democracy. We cannot allow that to stand.

@mcuban.bsky.social oh hi Mark, just wanted to ask you about your recent interviews mentioning Dems can’t sell and Trump is good at selling. Trumps selling was always poop IMO. So by what measure is it good? And how can Dems sell better without lying or making grandiose claims?

Why are Trump and Vance publicly railroading Zelensky? It’s gross and it feels like they’re carrying someone else’s water.

They just fired hundreds of FAA employees.

I haven’t fully read the US constitution in about 20 years. Started reading digital and picking up a hard copy tomorrow. I encourage all to read this most important document we have.

NEW: New Doge/Musk Email Drama Goes Seriously Sideways talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/new-d...

Federal workers have been given about 48 hours to explain what they accomplished last week. Elon Musk says not responding will be taken as a resignation. apnews.com/article/elon...

Donald Trump’s firing of military leaders — four-star General Brown and four-star Admiral Franchetti — along with top legal officers is a betrayal of legions of first rate service members who dedicate their lives to our nation’s defense. This is a growing national security risk.
