"People who like to sound tough reflexively back the guys with guns over the guys in jeans with sacks of grain or the guys in suits with papers. But take it from someone who spent nearly 1,500 days downrange over the course of 20 years: USAID is worth every penny." www.thebulwark.com/p/usaid-kept...

This is what amounts to an ILLEGAL & indiscriminate funding cut for research centers everywhere. It will mean shuttering labs across the country, layoffs in red & blue states, and derailing lifesaving research on everything from cancer to opioid addiction. We all need to speak out to save lives.

Excellent 🧵 on this evening's NIH announcement of a dramatic reduction in indirect rates for research institutions, which amounts to a generational restructuring of the US research and development ecosystem. These cuts are effective immediately, not just for new grants but for existing ones.

Donald Trump just announced a task force to eliminate "anti-Christian bias" in the federal government. I went through his executive order. It doesn't include a single credible example of anti-Christian bias. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/trumps-tas...

They are seeking to criminalize integration efforts across public life. We must be clear eyed and direct about what’s happening here. We have not witnessed this blatant of a comprehensive governmental attack on integration since the Civil Rights Movement. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Include disabled people in your resistance planning. In many ways we’re built for resistance, as we have to find creative and sustainable ways to survive every single day. This is the time for intersectionality and community care. We need to work together and save one another.

The Trump administration’s federal government funding freeze instituted Monday — and apparently rescinded today — appears to be a part of the White House’s official policy to get courts to hand Trump the power to pick and choose which congressionally authorized funding he will spend.

Do one thing every day to help someone currently in harms way. Learn how to identify and protect neighbours from ICE agents. Stand up for the LGBTQ+ community. Wear a mask in solidarity with the disabled community. Learn about anti-Blackness and commit to doing better. Don’t let hate win.

If eggs are completely gone or overly expensive, consider tofu scramble. Same consistency as scrambled eggs, color it with a dash of turmeric, add some salt. Good in a breakfast burrito. There are other plant based/vegan hacks for egg replacement.
