Several guests who attended Trump's crypto dinner last night said they attended with the explicit intent of influencing him and U.S. financial regulations.
Trump is selling access to our government to the highest bidder while lining his own pockets.

Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution?

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

Hours after Donald Trump did a free commercial for Tesla on the White House lawn, Elon Musk reportedly announced plans to donate $100 million to a MAGA super PAC.

Out of 34 Sea Grant programs, Maine’s is the only one targeted for elimination by Trump. This isn’t about trans people playing sports. It’s clearly retribution for the Governor standing up to Trump, it doesn’t matter what the policy disagreement is. www.mainecoastfishermen.org/post/press-r...

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right.
The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter.
Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.
I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.

NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.
Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions
