Kathleen Graham, a 56-year-old nurse in the Bronx, was participating in a diabetes research study when Columbia University was forced to abruptly cancel the research because of Trump's $400 million funding cut to punish the school. “Honestly, I wanted to cry,” she said.

“I’m not going to change what he does [...] All I can do is try to make sure that in my space, [...] I’m trying to elevate people.”

“There’s going to be forces along the way that don’t want that, for whatever reason I can’t fathom. That doesn’t stop me. It is a fight that we’ll just keep fighting.”

Lewis: “Don’t ever compare me to anybody else. I’m the first and only Black driver that’s ever been in this sport. I’m built different. I’ve been through a lot. [...] I’m hungry, driven, don’t have a wife and kids. I’m focused on one thing, and that’s winning. That’s my No. 1 priority.” 👊🏾💥

“What merit means to them”

General Brown’s record, which Hegseth questioned for obvious reasons: www.af.mil/About-Us/Bio...

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story.

Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver.

This is what "merit" means to them.

so what’s the plan? If the courts won’t matter, then elections won’t matter. And it feels like 99% of people don’t care or don’t get it
