"We're gonna ensure that our truckers, who are the backbone of our policy, are all able to speak English" -- Leavitt says Trump will sign an order demanding that all truckers can speak English

A disgusting new level of propaganda. Karoline Leavitt wasted taxpayer dollars plastering mug shots across the White House lawn — like trophies. Lies. Fear. Dehumanization. All to distract us from their own failures.

Pritzker calls for mass protests and disruption - “Republicans cannot know a moment of peace,” he says, swaying their portraits will one day be put in museums “reserved for tyrants and traitors”

The USDA has withdrawn a plan to impose stronger safety regulations limiting salmonella levels in raw poultry. Who was the biggest donor to Trump's inauguration fund? Pilgrim’s Pride — one of the largest chicken processors in the country. See how this works?

Today, I received a termination for my National Science Foundation CAREER Grant, which employed a post-doc and many undergraduate research assistants.

Further grant terminations from NSF. I don't yet have a list of what has been cut. It's been hard to concentrate today when every email ping could a notice from NSF that another of our grants is being terminated.
