Congress has decided to claw back previously approved funding for public media.

This decision hurts people in communities across the country, but it has only strengthened our resolve to keep Americans informed and connected. (1/2)

Is anyone in the health econ world planning on teaching a module on MAHA? I'm debating doing a module on it and would love to spitball with other instructors on the topic.

YouTube video by L O L G O P What Rosie said about kids dying in the Texas floods that Trump doesn't want you to hear

@thefarce.org made a YouTube of the TikTok that Trump got all you to ignore with his tweet threatening to revoke Rosie O'Donnell's citizenship.

This is a strong moral critique that proved prescient. This is what he is trying to suppress.

Given funding uncertainty, the School of Arts and Sciences at the University of Pennsylvania has decided not to authorize any standing faculty hires during the current fiscal year. Zero hires. Across the entire school.

I wonder if PIs can join APHA now and get reinstated that way.

Some days you just find a paper calling for exactly the project you’re proposing. Woo hoo!

University of Virginia President Resigns Under Pressure From Trump Administration

Do we really need to have a discussion about why it's bad for politicians to strong-arm universities, law firms, media organizations, etc??? Where is the elite outrage?! It's clearly authoritarianism. If you go against the wishes of the state you will be punished.

I mean that kind of nonsense plays well on Rogan, but yeah. Wtf!

That's quite a set of guardrails! Answers to every question? Sheesh

It would be a big gut punch in NC for sure

JOE ROGAN: “These ICE raids are fuckin’ nuts… if Trump had said we’re gonna go to Home Depot and arrest everyone, tackle people at construction sites, I don’t think anyone would’ve signed up for that… It’s crazy.”

(PSA: You were warned, Joe. Yet you signed up for it.)
