Trump considers redirecting $3 billion in Harvard grants to US trade schools President Donald Trump said he is considering taking $3 billion of previously awarded grant money for scientific and engineering research away from Harvard University and giving it to trade schools.

“Most of that grant money is appropriated by Congress for the National Institutes of Health to disburse to fund biomedical research after a lengthy application process by individual scientists, work that is not typically done at trade schools…”

JD Vance on Trumpcare in 2017: "What is it that's going to drive Trump's voter away from him? Well, losing their health care may actually be the answer to that question."

Mission accomplished.

Thousands of workers? Saved.
Public education? Protected.
Dictatorship? Denied.

LIAR!

U.S. AG Pam Bondi Sold More than $1 Million in Trump Media Stock the Day Trump Announced Sweeping Tariffs Disclosure forms show that Bondi sold between $1 million and $5 million worth of shares on April 2. That day, after the market closed, Trump’s “Liberation Day” press conference sent the market tumblin...

This is just one big heist. The Trump regime is a wildly corrupt and criminal enterprise.

AOC: This administration — and Noem — spits on the American flag every time they engage in that nonsense. So I don’t want to hear anything about “America First.” These people, and this administration, are putting America last by acting like their allegiance is to a man instead of the Constitution.

Bribery in plain sight.
