'Segregated facilities' are no longer explicitly banned in federal contracts The Trump administration cut a clause from federal contracting rules that had been on the books since the 1960s: Companies are no longer explicitly prohibited from having segregated facilities.

This is outrageous

Exclusive: NIH to terminate hundreds of active research grants Studies that touch on LGBT+ health, gender identity and DEI in the biomedical workforce could be terminated, according to documents obtained by Nature.

We should only have research studies that benefit white men I guess

What in the world is going on in the Oval Office right now? I’m so embarrassed for all Americans that this is our president and how he speaks to another world leader. (And Vance sucks too!)

Federal Register Blackout Blocks NIH Funding New strategy is like pouring 'cement in the pipes of the federal funding infrastructure'

Federal funding for research has stopped. While you can submit proposals, if they can’t be reviewed, they can’t be awarded.

NIH announces new funding policy that rattles medical researchers The National Institutes of Health has dramatically changed its grant-making terms by limiting how much it will disburse for costs such as equipment and administration.

"’America's competitors will relish this self-inflicted wound,’ Owens says. β€˜We urge NIH leaders to rescind this dangerous policy before its harms are felt by Americans.’”

The party that is obsessed with child sex offenders, & is close to a cult that claims child sex offenders run the government, just nominated a guy once investigated for allegedly sex-trafficking a 17 year old girl to be in charge of the country’s legal system.

US Senate Republicans to pick new leader amid pressure from Trump allies U.S. Senate Republicans will gather behind closed doors on Wednesday to pick their next leader in the face of a public pressure campaign by supporters of President-elect Donald Trump who favor the long-shot bid of a hardline Trump loyalist.

The Senate in their secret ballot election, went against Trump’s push for Rick Scott. So they only conform when he can see how they vote www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...
