This is the internal paperwork from the NIH detailing the process of screening grants for "DEI words" that would violate the Executive Order

![In accordance with the Secretarial Directive on DEI Related Funding, NIH will no longer prioritize research and reserach training programs that focus on ... DEI. Terminations that result from science that no longer effectuates NIH's priorities must follow the appeals guidance below. All other terminations for noncompliance require, always, appeal language.
Prior to issuing all awards (competing and noncompeting) or approving requests for carryover, ICs must review the specific aims [sic] assess whether the proposed project contains any DEI research activities or DEI language that give the perception that NIH funds can be used to support these activities. To avoid issuing awards, in error, that support DEI activities ICs must take care to completely excise all DEI activities using the following categories.
Category 1: The sole purpose of the project is DEI related (e.g., diversity supplements or conference grant where the purpose of the meeting is diversity), and/or the application was received in response to a NOFO that was unpublished as outlined above.
Action: ICs must not issue the award.
Category 2: Project partially supports DEI activities (i.e., the project may still be viable if those aims or activities are negotiated out, without significant changes from the original peer-reviewed scope) ...
Action: Funding IC must negotiate with the applicant/recipient to address the activities that are non-compliant, along with the associated funds that support those activities, obtain revised aims and budges, and documen thte changes in the grant file
Category 3: Project does not support DEI activities, but may contain language related to DEI (e.g., statement regarding institutional commitment to diversity in the 'Facilities & Other Resources' attachment and terminology related to structural racis - this is not all-inclusive).
Action: Funding IC must request an updated application/RPRR with the DEI language removed](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hv6dwpg7ms7zwkkqwpf6mmq7/bafkreifacddpmugu3u255lpq4vmadxgg77c7eyi5ykqpqolyteokduvi4e@jpeg)

There’s a major shift in U.S. cybersecurity policy. A recent CISA memo removed Russia from its list of priorities, focusing instead on China and local systems. Analysts were told not to track Russian cyber threats.

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.
