This president is openly calling for ethnic cleansing while sitting next to a genocidal war criminal. He’s perfectly fine cutting off working Americans from federal funds while the funding to the Israeli government continues flowing.

25-50% of staff at the NSF to be laid off in the next 2 months apparently. Seems bad.
