I was told I was overreacting. Now they’re about to fire 83,000 people from the VA. A third of whom are veterans themselves.

“Because of public skepticism, it is not settled science”. Excuse me allow me to interject, Dr. Livingston. We have people who think that the earth was created 6000 years ago in six 24-hour periods. Are we going to use taxpayer dollars to prove this isn’t true also?

the fact that Danielle Sassoon is a member of the Federalist Society who clerked for Scalia makes her stand in defense of her independence and the law and against the Trumpian corruption of government as a protection racket all the more meaningful www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/n...

Brianna Keilar: Do you think that calling Elon Musk a dick is effective messaging? Congressman Robert Garcia: Well, he is a dick.

Raskin: "Elon Musk, you may have illegally seized power over the financial payments systems of the Treasury, but you don't control the money of the American people. The US Congress does that under Article 1 of the Constitution ... we don't have a fourth branch of government called 'Elon Musk'"

Hi all, We’re still here at OPM. We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building. Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.

If you're wondering what PROOF is working on now, I'm attempting to—on an emergency basis—put together a massive report on what exactly the scope of the current coup is. Our government is fighting a _civil war_, and the insurrectionists are winning. I will try to outline exactly what is happening.

Trump just issued an executive order defunding public schools that accommodate transgender students. Teachers will be banned from referring to a transgender student by their desired name or pronouns. If they do not comply, their budgets can be defunded.

Holy crap. Labs depend on these meetings and funding decisions.

NIH Study Sections have been cancelled. These are groups of experts who get paid a pittance, if anything, to review research funding applications from their peers. The result of these reviews is to rank these research grants to decide which proposals get funded.

The EO pausing disbursement of funds allocated in IRA and Infra Act could disrupt all kinds of worthy programs — including potentially wildlife crossings and culvert replacements to which the Biden Admin already committed. Make roadkill great again?! #roadecology www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

New: Trump officials have paused all external communications at health agencies like CDC, FDA, NIH. No health alerts and the famed MMWRs; no updates to key websites or social media posts. And no indication how long the pause will last. With @rachelroubein.bsky.social + Lena Sun.

Odd coincidence that both snail darter and Delta smelt—two of the most scapegoated animals in US history!—are in the news this week. Something interesting to be said about contempt people feel for fish they neither eat nor catch. www.jefftiedrich.com/p/no-idiots-... www.nytimes.com/2025/01/03/s...
