RFK Jr. just cut $500 million in federal funding for mRNA vaccine development. Not because the vaccines failed. Not because they’re unsafe. But because of ideology. Twenty-two projects - gone overnight. These weren’t fringe efforts. They included next-gen vaccines for COVID-19,

So.... I’m a software engineer. I write code all day, and get paid to do it. This (below) is not how “coding errors” work. Like, at all. It’s like saying my car won’t start because it’s out of washer fluid. Gibberish. They are lying to you.

The US already paid $9.7mil for non-abortifcient birth control that nonprofits offered to distribute with their funds. But US is going to spend $160 K to burn them because...I dunno, #Project2025 folks don't like empowering women? nytimes.com/2025/08/07/wor…

The fact that Trans service members who are forced to leave the military are being denied early retirement pension if they are 15-19 years in, is angering and should anger all Americans. Meanwhile the draft dodging fat-assed douche canoe clown balls of a President dodged the

Aaron Rupar JD is spinning the 2020 Census like it is some grand anti-Republican conspiracy, but the facts don’t back him up. The Census Bureau found both overcounts and undercounts, in red and blue states alike and the biggest overcount was in Republican-run Florida. Errors happen in every

It's quite something that Donald has decided to personally implement taxes on profitable American corporations, particularly ones with overseas markets. Maybe he'll expand to #BigOil, #Amazon, & "Luxury Real Estate" like #TrumpOrganization!

Trump's nominee for BLS commissioner, EJ Antoni, is disastrously terrible. He's a 1200%, 1300% maybe 1400% in-the-tank Trumper, with few credentials beyond a long history of misrepresenting or misunderstanding basic economic statistics. He has demonstrated no commitment to truth.

Republicans against Trump So the plan is to turn the Smithsonian into a MAGA theme park. "And on your right, ladies and gentlemen, you'll see the glorious exhibit on how our great leader won all the wars! Please ignore the empty display case where the 'uncomfortable facts' used to be. That area is

"to ensure the museums align with President Trump’s interpretation of American history", yet another stellar example of Dunning-Kruger effect. We knew this was coming, hopefully efforts to archive accurate history in Smithsonian museums have been implemented already.

Global cooperation through organizations like the IMO is essential to tackle climate change that knows no borders. Prioritizing short-term interests over long-term survival isn’t leadership,

Secretary Marco Rubio Secretary Sean Duffy Climate change does not recognize borders, and no country is immune to its impacts. By opposing such frameworks, the U.S. risks falling behind other nations that are embracing cleaner technologies and sustainable practices, which could ultimately hurt American industries and

We’re suspending the jobs report so you don’t see how bad the numbers are, auditing the Smithsonian to match Trump’s politics, fighting over gerrymandering the map, and deploying the military into cities. This isn’t governance anymore. It’s authoritarianism in plain sight.

I wonder what Russ Vought thinks is offensive at Smithsonian NMNH. Evolution? Humans should be in dino dioramas? 1st hominids should be white folks in Eden? 4.6 Billion years for age of Earth should be 6000 yrs? Gonna "lend" #Donald gold nuggets & gems from the Annenberg collection?
