Just in NIH grants, It looks like beautiful Iowa City, home of the U of Iowa, will lose $71m in funding. That's almost $1k per resident. And that's before all the other cuts to SSA, FDA, etc.
Anyone in Iowa City that can offer more insight?

Hiring your brother is the original affirmative action for white people.
Diversity initiatives were meant to overcome the old patterns of nepotism, so I guess it makes sense that the enemies of diversity are big fans of nepotism.
Why is Pete Hegseth bringing his wife to top security meetings and hiring his brother at the Pentagon? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

We 💙 links!
Starting this week, we've made it even easier for newsrooms and more to track how much traffic Bluesky is sending to their sites.
For those setting up analytics, Bluesky's referrer is go.bsky.app.

Tell everyone in Wisconsin
Trump's tariffs will negatively impact almost 300,000 Wisconsin jobs—the highest percentage of any state.
77% of those affected voted for the person creating this harm.
Truth matters. Let's talk. @trygveolson.bsky.social, @toddallbaugh.bsky.social

You know what I despise most about MAGA hate mail?
It's just incoherent. 99.99% of MAGA complaints are a farrago of terrible grammar, lurid recountings of utterly fictional sins against the Umber Demon, and pointless rage.
They read like a kind of Mad Libs for window-lickers.

This is more important than you realize. Bluesky doesn’t downgrade links. Which means news sites will get more traffic from here than other sites.
Which gives them economic reasons to post here first.

Strong rumor with credible sourcing: DOJ has put all of public integrity line attorneys in a room and told them they have an hour for someone to choose who will sign motion to dismiss and if nobody does, they will all be fired. The nastiest strong-arming in DOJ history by a long shot.
