Right wing β€œnews” has created a cult like, detached-from-reality anger over the most mundane issues! The vitriol was so over the top for entertainment, it highlights how there really are two different Americas right now! I was shook when I saw the MAGA reaction in real time at halftime 😒

This is horrifying to watch in real time- POTUS twisting and turning and lying with ease about the complete incompetence with our national security! Despicable! How are people not losing their jobs?

Thank you! That is my question too! Why would the journalist be a contact? And, who did they think they included?

So, what is happening to all our American citizens now stuck in other countries? What about the Peace Corps? The media needs to start making this a human story in addition to an illegal maneuver by an unelected megalomaniac!

Yes! And, sadly, there is usually a lot of confidence with their incorrect and misguided statements

Trump hits NIH with β€˜devastating’ freezes on meetings, travel, communications, and hiring Researchers facing β€œa lot of uncertainty, fear, and panic”

Reposting due to typos… I haven’t heard β€œofficially”about mine either but I am hearing about it from others πŸ’”πŸ˜’. Someone else posted this. Looks like they started with NIH. Very shortsighted to stop important science that will save lives! www.science.org/content/arti...

And, so it starts… stop-work notices are going out on federally funded grants that even mention diversity. My heart is breaking for this important work and the innovative scientific research that will be stalled! Diversity of thought is a good thing!

Look at those smug faces acting like they belong there- zero self awareness. Meanwhile, the cultists are spewing conspiracy theories about everything except what they should be terrified of! This! My heart hurts for America πŸ’”

Correct. It’s part of the proposal. And, kind reminder- you don’t have to perfectly execute it, but it should well thought out with ways to measure effort. Depending on the discipline, think of ways to get results to broad audiences in addition to academic audiences. Reviewers like that

Evaluator here 😊. You should have a general dissemination plan for your grant. It can easily be written into the evaluation to monitor progress, collaborative efforts for authorship including funded students, and dissemination - from manuscripts and presentations to podcasts, blogs, etc.

Labeled β€œopinion” because Ms. Roberts fell hook, line, and sinker for the faux outrage! I don’t agree with the tactic but at least put a little journalism in the piece. Just a mask, just making a point opposing the Trump tree that certainly is not celebrating Jesus’s birth. She got her rage clicks.
