Whatever comes next in the NIH case, the hearing today made it clear how huge the medical/academic constituencies are opposing these cuts. And it would seem hard to dispute that some amount of irreparable harm has already happened to some number of parties involved.

Nigel Farage is friends with fascists who do Nazi Salutes on stage. He is in no fit state to be anywhere near British politics.

Oh so Farage didn’t comment on Trump’s betrayal of Zelensky and Ukraine - not because he was swamped with Clacton constituency work. God no. He was on a plane to the US and it was night time. Hahaha! More like waiting for further instructions from his despot paymasters… news.sky.com/story/farage...

You boy, has anyone seen Nigel Farage?

There's a rumour that Nigel Farage is keeping his head down because he's off to a Trump cheerleading conference over the weekend. I’m afraid I’m being proved right- Farage is far more interested in Trump's success than British security. He is a bootlicker and a plastic patriot.

We all need to call these lies out, to share the facts and the truth, because facts and truth matter - without them we are all lost. If you know anyone who actually believes the boll**** Trump and Musk have been spouting this week ask them to spend five minutes watching this

"The larger dynamic is that Trump isn’t merely pushing to redefine the boundaries of the law or even the Constitution," Jonathan Chait writes. "He is rejecting the principle that the law constrains him at all."
