The entire budget of MAGA is a pro-war, arms race allocation of our tax dollars.

Nuclear warheads, golden dome, border walls and Homeland Security.

While he likes renaming things or creating words in his mind, the only golden dome we recognize in the US is at the University of Notre Dame.

Someone dear to me was in a trial at NIH. Her other cancer treatments had reached the end of the road, and the NIH trial was a final effort. It was working! Then Trump and Musk decimated NIH. Her trial abruptly ended. Her doctors were gone. She is now back to trying to find a way to stay alive.

If his Most Favored Nation policy reduces drug prices, the media will only focus on that and not this.

This is how he wins. He does 1 good thing & 3 or 4 bad things. And so the media doesn't seem like they're suffering from TDS, they only focus on the 1 good thing he does. Pretty brilliant, imo.

Cuts to treatments too.

patrickin.bsky.social•1 day ago

As with so many of the Trump admin’s cuts, how is this legal? Is it being challenged in court? Congress allocated this money. The administration cannot legally just not spend it.

bevporegon.bsky.social•1 day ago

They don't care that they're breaking the law. And the GOPers in Congress are doing nothing. Courts take time and can't enforce. It's infuriating.

patrickin.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yeah. Every new example is just so frustrating. Maybe there is a lawsuit. There are so many. Every instance of unconstitutional impoundment requires separate lawsuits. It’s nuts. The executive can break laws far faster than courts can do anything about it. Assuming right wing courts will.

patrickin.bsky.social•1 day ago

And there’s zero penalty for the Trump admin. They don’t care how much taxpayer money they spend defending lawsuits and even when they lose, they’ve forced plaintiffs to spend so much time and money fighting them while funding is cut off. The damage is done.

bearded-okie.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Won't, not can't. They don't have to start by locking up the president. They can go after the people who are "jUsT fOlLoWiNg OrDeRs". Without them, he's nothing.

patrickin.bsky.social•14 hours ago

Maybe, though in some cases it’s Congress that needs to act. There have been many illegal impoundments, trampling Congress’s power of the purse. But the GOP Congress won’t act even to defend their own power.

Doctor here.
These cuts are at most pivotal moment in cancer treatment, just as we have accelerated of our ability to cure cancers (some now, many in the future) with
1. Immunotherapy
2. CRISPR (gene editing)
3. PROTACS (proteolysis-targeting chimeras)
Many will die because of this. Thousands.

meechelle.bsky.social•1 day ago

This cannot be understated. The ability to identify rare diseases and abnormalities has accelerated in the last 5 years as well. They might not how you got there but the personalized treatments are the path forward. The loss of hope is burdensome. There will be many people gone before their time

Fight Trump’s Nazism. Trump’s MAGA base includes millions of gynophobic Nazi sympathizers who exploit women, loath Jews, and hate all People of Color. Trump is trying to use this base to convert the USA into a Fascist, Christian-Nationalist, White-Supremacist Kleptocracy.

Well now that Joe Biden has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, I wouldn’t be surprised if he stopped funding it all together… bc we all know what a spiteful, petty, cruel a-hole he is. 🤦🏼‍♀️

meechelle.bsky.social•1 day ago

I think the cancer and chronically ill community has been screaming. In totality, it’s twice as much when we add the loss of advancements and research studies. It’s leaving an entire class of people that need new treatments or cures to wait for other countries to lead and show up for us. Shameful.

Don’t look to the lead politicians to lead this fight. That’s not what they usually do. There are politicians speaking loudly enough to be heard and read, but it could also be an opinion leader from another part of our world.

poli32.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Absolutely. As time goes by, scientific research will become more and more sophisticated and more expensive. But the current policy has reduced funding, which directly means that this research can be stopped. In addition to delaying medical progress, it also affects social development!

navyvet80.bsky.social•1 day ago

Attacking King Donnie privately or publicly is forbidden to his Minions by the oversized ego of our dumbest president. It's obvious that Trump has serious emotional and mental health issues because his behavior is exactly like that of a spoiled pampered privileged 6 year-old. He's not sane! 💙🇺🇸💙

Whether they were a patient or an otherwise healthy doctor

So many lives have been destroyed by this admin in so many ways. Some even lost, unfortunately, because of the despair caused.

News is more than just Joe Biden
