Impeach him, Republicans. You're about to lose everything.

Took them longer to get to this than I thought it would.

It’s like the cultural revolution and the Great Leap Forward combined

With the Black Plague waiting in the wings.

Yeah. All this DOGE bullshit? Attacking the working class and decimating our institutions in the name of the national debt?

It's fucking bullshit. And the press needs to be more forceful on this fact and push the fuck back. Because we're being played.

you have to bear in mind he's probably never even heard of NEH, its immaterial, the destruction and dismantling is the point.
All these people saying 'he's insane' or 'he's incompetent' . . .he isnt, he is just following orders.. just look at who he didnt tariff: NK, Russia, Belarus. I wonder why?

And we the people were never asked if we enjoyed these things and considered them wasteful or not. Brass balls or what. I don't like it when others assume what I want or not want. I can think for myself. The 30K+ for golf in March of our money is waste. I want my money back. I need a vacation.

State humanities councils, funded in large part by the NEH, play a vital role in preserving history, connecting communities, and providing education to Americans of all ages.

These cuts will hurt, especially in rural areas. The NEH's work must continue -- we need people from every background to solve the issues we face as a country.

At some point there is nothing left to fund so we all stop paying taxes right? Were is the fucking money going!

We shall have official history vetted by trump, and not worth the paper the books are printed on.

Given basic contracts law, I'm baffled by how they can pull existing grants that NEH already committed to. Recipients make plans based on those grant letters -- move for a research fellowship, forego other opportunities, engage facilities, hire assistants, get kids working on projects.
