πŸ™ŒπŸΌ I’m not sure who had the amazing idea to invite this constitutional lawyer to a senate hearing that intended to prove Biden colluded with Meta to censor conservatives, but she took the opportunity to speak truth to power ✊🏼 on the hypocrite πŸ‘‘ KING OF FREE SPEECH, Donald Trump, himself. πŸ‘πŸΌ Brava!!

Opinion | This Never Happened With an American President Before Trump’s behavior in the Oval Office with Zelensky was an unparalleled break with American foreign policy.

At least 200,000 protesters rally in Munich against far-right AfD ahead of German election More than 200,000 protesters have demonstrated in Munich against far-right extremism ahead of the German general election.

The world in 2025.

Hundreds of thousands of Germans oppose neo-fascism.

The top aide to the president of the United States supports it.

NIH doesn’t just support infectious disease researchβ€”it drives breakthroughs in cancer, childhood diseases, heart disease, diabetes & more.

Thanks to NIH, we have:
πŸ’‰ Cancer immunotherapy
❀️ Cholesterol-lowering statins
🩸 Insulin for diabetes

Investing in NIH = investing in life-saving discoveries.

NIH cuts billions of dollars in biomedical funding, effective immediately The move halts a large slice of money for most universities and research institutions virtually overnight, imperiling vital research in everything from cancer to heart disease.

Their aim is nothing short of a new Dark Ages. Anti-science, anti-education, anti-democracy, in favor of needless human suffering.

Capitalism has gotten boring. Always the same people at the top. Let’s shake things up.

15th of every month we take the richest person in the country, seize and redistribute all their assets, and yeet them directly into a volcano.
Watch the rest scramble to be the most charitable ones. We’ll see all kinds of new faces.

This now makes a lot more sense why CDC snuck in a table about H5N1 into the wildfire report.
Because they forced CDC scientists to publish on the health risks of wildfires to bolster Trump's attacks on CA Gov Newsom and blocked reports on H5N1.

a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated β€œblack” or β€œhispanic” or β€œwoman” job

Researchers invent a new tool to help lower the cost of tomorrow’s medicine Two University of Missouri scientists created AshPhos, a chemical tool that makes it more efficient to create carbon-nitrogen bonds.

This discovery was NSF not NIH funded - but it is exactly the kind of obviously leftist indoctrination that Trump was elected to root out: showme.missouri.edu/2025/researc...

Children’s Hospital of Pennsylvania has indirect rate of 70%, but they probably didn’t want to list that atop Harvard because defunding a children’s hospital might be perceived as problematic.

This is devastating

I see more criticism here of Democrats in Congress than I do condemnation of Republicans.

And yet it is the GOP who are enabling Trump.

It tells me a lot when I see you regularly bash our side but say nothing, ever, about the other.

Reflect on your choices. You may be helping the fascists.

If Joe Biden fired 100 FAA employees and a plane crash happened just a few hours later, Fox News would bring Lou Dobbs back from the dead with wall-to-wall coverage blaming it on Biden.
