At this point, I think every institution just has to assume that they're not going to get federal funding or at least come up with a contingency plan in the event their federal funding is eliminated. Cities, states, universities, nonprofits...you just cannot rely on getting money from the feds now.

Defend the liberty of a stranger as you would defend your own, or that of a loved one, because that is what's actually on the table—whether we are a society that will sit still as our neighbors are snatched in the night, and disappeared into darkness, or a society that will fight for each other.

I am asking some of you to stop lying to yourselves about how "powerless" the Democrats in DC are. Please stop. Most of these people have been Congress for over a generation. They KNOW what's possible to do both in DC and in their own districts. They are "colleagues" with McConnell. They know.
