I know this to be true. I’ve even written on the topic.

The Epstein files won’t wake them up anymore than the Mueller Report did. We can’t count on MAGA voters. We have to get to the apathetic and disenfranchised voters.

My state has had a legislative GOP supermajority for 22 years. Missouri is ranked:

50th in classroom funding
49th in starting teacher pay
7th highest in gun deaths
6th highest in maternal mortality

Republicans can’t govern and you can look at every red state to come to that conclusion.

Hi, so this is also eugenics. Everything Musk and Trump and RFK Jr are doing is eugenics. It is designed to kill the elderly, children, disabled folks, folks in poverty, and sicken and weaken everyone else. Please understand that suffering and death is the point.
All of us are endangered by alarming Trump interference in important UT research & elsewhere. After his groundbreaking COVID vaccine success, Dr. Jason McLellan’s funding to develop meds for multiple viruses is being cut.

Taking “a break” from infectious disease research means more people die.
H.H.S. Scraps Studies of Vaccines and Treatments for Future Pandemics
Federal officials cited the end of the Covid-19 pandemic in halting the research. But much of the work was focused on preventing outbreaks of other pathogens.

Trump confuses transgenic for transgender:

“transgenic” mice are lab research mice that have been genetically altered to better model human disease response. They have been called a “revolutionary research resource” for medical advancements…”
Trump Decried Millions Spent 'Making Mice Transgender.' It Was Cancer and Asthma Research
President Trump falsely claimed that Biden spent $8 million on 'making mice transgender,' but the real research was for human health.

There’s an immigrant taking people’s jobs… his name is Elon Musk. He’s snatching farms, government jobs (even those in which they manage our national security), and definitely those whose jobs are to root out fraud (inspector generals),

Everyone make sure to review bomb the "gulf of America". It might not do much but it's a little cathartic.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.

“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.
White House pauses all federal grants, sparking confusion
The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.

They’re still so mad.

They won, but they’re still unhappy. Women still don’t like them, wages aren’t better, jobs aren’t being created, grocery prices still aren’t going down.

Their lives are just going to get harder, because they wanted so badly to be racists and bigots.
