That's what the majority in TN voted for. FAFO.

Ya but those Libs were sure shown huh?

The shock of massive spending cuts will throw millions out of work and kill off thousands of small businesses. But at least it will pay for tax cuts for those who who have so much money they could easily live off one day’s interest for an entire year. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Eat the rich!!

These are illegal impoundments. There will be law suits as Donnie does not have this authority

When the United States pulls away from the table China will take it's spot. These "cuts" are the biggest self own we could do.

Who needs biomedical research when you have miracle drugs like ivermectin and Thoughts and Prayers?" - Trump

petsyrah.bsky.social•14 days ago

You'd think that Vought would be trying to persuade Trump/Elon to hold off here. One of those researchers may hold the key to a cure for cystic fibrosis, which his daughter has.

orchidhouse.bsky.social•14 days ago

I don’t think that this funding not only can save lives, but can be profitable. Idiots.

Tennessee voters voted for this 😡😡😡😡😡

Blue dot in TN. Even worse to them, I'm a vegan. Trust, I voted a 💙 ticket!
I'm a veteran. This is killing me.....

tishm.bsky.social•14 days ago

Is the the group using animals to do research? Dogs and cats?

wmn4srvl.bsky.social•14 days ago

Congress should have the power of the purse, not Elon.

AccuWeather meteorologists say that Tennessee is going to get worse than previous years during this upcoming tornado season. I would not be surprised if FEMA is gone before that.
Can’t believe people support their own deaths.

All to destroy Biden’s cancer moonshot. The rest is for the cruelty.

gypsydawg.bsky.social•13 days ago

While I hate to see attacks on science one has to appreciate the irony of Trump's MAGA cult here in WilCo about to take it up the rear because of their corruption and Republican friends in the legislature being so "creative" at funneling taxpayer money to prop up their businesses.

gypsydawg.bsky.social•14 days ago

While I hate to see the attacks on science, you do have to appreciate the irony of Trump's MAGA cult here in WilCo about to take it up the rear because of their corruption and Republican friends in the legislature being so "creative" ant funneling taxpayer money to prop up their businesses.

nerdaged.bsky.social•14 days ago

Sure, they're destroying the economy and ruining people's lives, but they're also not owning the libs either, so it's a win-win, right?

abolitionistrev.bsky.social•14 days ago

I think the negatives cancel each other out and make a positive.

We tried to tell them. 🥲

timepirate.bsky.social•13 days ago

This, along with the cuts to USAID is Nazism with no compassion for the sick, the poor, the starving. The wealthiest man in the world, dictating to the United States. It may be indirect, but it is still nazism.

Let's see what Blackburn thinks about this considering she wants to be the next Governor.

Gee, what did you expect he would do? It’s always easy to vote when you don’t see the real world consequences. Lots of people are going to get hurt. We are going to have mass unemployment

Ask “Danny” if he thinks FOTUS actually cares….

But, the🥚's, the🥚's, the🥚's. Now, they are faced with no jobs,no money,no healthcare, and loss of homes. More importantly, no money for 🥚's.

This is a Trump administration decision.

This is what the red States voted for.

The golden age is a upon us.

silvertipgrizz.bsky.social•14 days ago

……… oh well.

nelliedais.bsky.social•14 days ago

All so he can give tax cuts to the billionaires without increasing the deficit. How does this, or anything else he’s done, make America great?

pongmoy.bsky.social•14 days ago

What happened to “Congress is in charge of the purse strings”?

How can this take immediate effect when “That’ll take an act of Congress” means something will take a long time?

0y3ah.bsky.social•14 days ago

This is that only capitalistic endeavors do research. They are going to run out of pronounceable names for untested new drugs. (WARNING: If your ears start to ring, and you can see who's on the porch through the door, drop Starlink, throw out the free headphones that came with it.)

coffee2cream.bsky.social•14 days ago

Red states need to feel it.

mbltc.bsky.social•14 days ago

Devastating but don’t worry the Republican senators Blackburn and Hagerty plan to do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about it. Reps Ogles and Green will embrace. It is amazing to watch the representatives of Tennessee vote against their constituency, and for the constituency to follow them over the cliff. Sad.

daminick1980.bsky.social•14 days ago

I know ex Trumpers personally. It's a cult!

knoxamy865.bsky.social•14 days ago

How did they become EX Trumpers? Truly would like to know what turned them.

daminick1980.bsky.social•14 days ago

They stopped hanging out with the person that was in deeper than them. Realized that once she was gone, it was bs. They really on everyone telling the lies.

knoxamy865.bsky.social•14 days ago

Thanks! I wish more people would see the light!

daminick1980.bsky.social•14 days ago

It does happen. Hopefully, more soon.

NIH cut nothing. Mango Mussolini did by EO.

It will hit at least memphis and knoxville hard too. If it holds to lawsuits it is a huge story.

hossmantn.bsky.social•14 days ago

This ‘cutting’ bullshit language has to stop.Yall are giving him too much credit.he is peppering you w lawsuits. While exposing bad decisions within our government.The ppl are reacting diff than the left. In two years you have to run on why you stopped this from happening.Not much of a road.

libroloverjen.bsky.social•14 days ago

Visit this site to see the impact NIH grant funding has on your state. This is going to devastate towns with research universities and hospitals and private businesses that supply grant recipients with equipment. https://www.unitedformedicalresearch.org/nih-in-your-state/

Zero sympathy for the fascists in Franklin.

I grew up in Columbia- add that, Spring Hill, Mt. Pleasant, culleoka, Santa Fe, Hoenwald, & all those middle TN towns to the list.
Moved away from TN 40+ years ago.
Unfortunately northern MN where I now live has turned red too. And uneducated and racist and mostly poor. SMDH!

ygbsm.bsky.social•14 days ago

Already appropriated. Also illegal.

Will affect cancer research too and hospitals such as St. Jude Children’s Hospital in Memphis.

daminick1980.bsky.social•14 days ago

THEY are in the find out phase!

makeadifference.bsky.social•14 days ago

Will Tennessee have the fortitude to resist and call out its still thinking voters? Watch for evidence of mental activity.

...and yet egg prices continue to rise. Hmm...

jb3po.bsky.social•14 days ago

Y'all remember back when Biden was too old? Good times.

boymom4life.bsky.social•14 days ago

He wants to be the best country in the world? We won’t be advanced at all. This sucks

thruaglassdarkly.bsky.social•14 days ago

Well I hope everyone in TN who votes red is SUPER proud of themselves! Like pat themselves on the back... great job bro!

Then make sure they announce to everyone what they've done, as a point of absolute pride!
