Never before in American history has one state's military force been deployed in another state over its objection.

I say never because the Civil War involved states whose governments legally ceased to exist, their offices vacated by constructive resignation, with no legitimate governors to object.

Florida's Surgeon General is dead wrong. Requiring children to get vaccinated to prevent measles, mumps & polio is not akin to "slavery."

Over the past 50 years, vaccines have saved millions of lives & reduced the infant mortality rate by 40%.

Vaccines save lives — period.

I say HANDS OFF THE SMITHSONIAN -- it is an inspiring resource for all Americans and visitors alike!

Trump targets the Smithsonian again, says it focuses too much on how bad slavery was U.S. President Donald Trump suggested on Tuesday he will pressure the Smithsonian Institution - a premier museum, education and research complex for U.S. history and culture - to accept his demands, just like he did with colleges and universities by threatening to cut federal funding.

This explains the MAGA crowd.

This is an interesting counter-narrative about the role of immigrants in the US.

How is this not just extortion, as the administration goes after one university after another?

Today, the Environmental Protection Agency announced it will shut down its Office of Research and Development and eliminate thousands of agency jobs. According to the agency, this office has long served as the scientific backbone of its efforts to protect both public health and the environment.

I didn’t fight and defend this country overseas to watch American women lose their rights right here at home.

Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

Update from Eric Schmitt

Just think of all the cancer, HIV, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and other public health research this money could’ve been spent on instead—and weep. “The deployment of 700 Marines and thousands of National Guard troops to Los Angeles — estimated to last 60 days — will cost about $134 million”

NIH funding delivers exponential economic returns — Harvard Gazette Report finds all 50 states reap gains in patient health, job creation, research resources, business development.

For every $1 spent on research $2.30 are gained in economic development. Besides being intellectually stupid this is financially stupid. This has nothing to do with making America/Americans better this has to do with make this country authoritarian.

Trump is deploying 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles without the governor’s request or consent. Governor Newsom has publicly condemned the move, calling it “purposefully inflammatory.”

A recent study found that for every $1 invested in the National Weather Service, it produces $73 in value to Americans.

Not only is the NWS a life-saving government resource, it's actually quite efficient.

"If what you're doing is legitimate and lawful, why do you need to cover your face?”

Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

Listening to the nurses...

All of NIH funding to Northwestern University is frozen. This pause includes noncompeting approved funding, new and competing grants with fundable scores. No reimbursements for money already spent have been received since March. This situation is rarely reported so please Please get the word out!

Just in general: colleges and universities are one of the best things about America. Smart people trying to pass on what they know to the next generation. This is good.

Republicans snuck an amendment into this bill to ban Affordable Care Act insurance plans from covering abortion care.

This is part of their play for a national abortion ban, in the middle of the night, and ripping healthcare away from millions.

Diseases are spreading. The CDC isn't warning the public like it was months ago Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.

Last night, Republicans started a hearing on Trump’s budget bill at 10 PM and today scheduled another meeting for 1 AM Wednesday.

If you think you are doing what is right for the American people you don’t consider it in the dead of night.

The US desperately needs more doctors, engineers & highly educated workers. But we’re telling students that if they want a higher education, they have to go into debt.

Other countries understand how important it is to invest in their young people. We should be doing the same.

We at CAAS are so proud of these fantastic scholars!
