It is so refreshing to know there are still great Americans in our Country who are NOT willing to kiss the ring of the Mob boss occupying the Oval office!
Bravo to you all and thank you for helping protect our Freedoms!!!
If Trump admin pursues this and appeals, does anyone have insight as to whether SCOTUS decision today about USAID has set precedence for all funding on various programs approved by Congress to go forward?
Thank you Kyle. In reading over the document, this is what I initially read in this sentence, " ... on Friday night, February 7, 2025, slashing and capping previously negotiated indirect cost ..." read crapping in place of "capping." Then realized either was correct, in my mind. Thanks again. 😊
Canceling this funding would've halted scores of ongoing research projects--from field tests to lab experiments--that take years to complete, destroying any useful data that might've come out.
Im glad people are fighting back but a lot of the damage is already done - a lot of promising young scientists have been so discouraged they’re leaving the field
Yes, they can challenge it, but I honestly doubt they will.
Muskrump relies on that tidal wave of news coverage when they announce their ridiculous plans, but they rarely follow through on them because they're stopped. Then they quietly drop the efforts.
sadly this doesn't help unless they actually send the money out to funded grants / award new grants which is how they have been behaving since the original stay was issued
A smokescreen, maybe, for the REAL attempted coup he is making? The bit about trying to rule unilaterally through executive order, rather than by rule of law?
Probably typical trump lawyer MO. Throw lawsuits at multiple people, hope some of them stick,so they get money out of it. But those who challenge it,they just let it go. It's just bullying.
And yeah, the Trump admin has moved so far forward with other things, they don't care about this anymore
Thanks for the link, Kyle. Based on the Court's description of the defense here it really sounds like the response to the lawsuit was slapdash and lame. I hope the quality of the rest of the administration responses to these suits stays just as useless.
How quaint a judge in Massachusetts playing democratic heroine while Rome burns around her. She extends her block on research funding cuts like offering a thimble of water to a forest fire. The judiciary: still performing CPR on a patient the executive has already measured for a coffin.
I think they broke stuff and fired everyone. And now have no way to fix it because there are no staff. But don’t want to admit that to the judge. Because how would they explain that. Halting payments shouldn’t make a system unusable

Muskrump's policies are reckless and dangerous.

It's like it's all for show or something.

They need to be slashing the intentions of the people destroying the very things that keep our country healthy…
how about that?
