I worry that not enough of a big deal is being made about how long-term the devastation of these budget cuts to our scientific and health agencies will be, beyond the absolute ruin they will cause in the acute period.

He's petty. He's stupid. He's greedy. He's hateful. He's crooked. He's criminal. He's ignorant. He's vengeful. He's cowardly. He's predatory. He's dishonest. He's delusional. He's embarrassing. He's a convicted felon. He's unfit. And everyone knows who I'm talking about.

Trump: "I'm not happy with what Putin is doing. He's killing a lot of people and I don't know what the hell happened to Putin. I've known him a long time ... we're in the middle of talking and he's shooting rockets into Kyiv and other cities. I don't like it at all. I'm surprised."
