Despite promises of cuts from Trump and Elon, the U.S. spent about $220 billion more in the first 100 days than it did last year. We’re spending far more and getting far less. So where is all the money going?

All the elected officials afraid to speak out should hire one of those mean girl middle schoolers to run their in social media accounts. Entertaining and effective

Hey American scientists and researchers, Canada has great universities and research institutions. The Canadian government has funding available for cutting edge research.
GOC, lets become a scientific and research hub, and give these scientists a place to continue their groundbreaking work!

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

Wow. Jamie Raskin discusses a possible impeachment of Donald Trump for illegal executive overreach.

β€œFind me two Republicans and I’ll go to work tomorrow.”

Would you support impeachment against Donald Trump?

Republicans are cowards. They fall instep to the would-be dictator to avoid any virtual wrath he spews towards them. Their constituents will be harmed w/ the cuts while they continue to gain wealth in office. #democrats what’s the plan?

Thank you, Senator! Senate Finance Committee Ranking Member Ron Wyden demanded answers from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent after reports surfaced that personnel affiliated with Elon Musk have sought access to a highly sensitive Treasury Department payment system.

Democrats, thank you for putting your trust in me. It's the honor of my life to serve as your next DNC Chair.

Now we’re going to pull ourselves together, work as one, and fight for the American people.

If I were Canadian PM I would immediately:

1. Create a new $15B science fund

2. Offer any credentialed US scientist funding for lab startup and replacement of NIH grants if they move to Canada

3. Immediate permanent residency

4. Citizenship after 2 years

Overnight a science superpower
