The moronic and cruel VA cuts are stunning…

Trump is slashing staff, delaying benefits, and gutting vets’ healthcare—while pretending to “support the troops.” Fewer doctors, fewer services, more vets left struggling.

Patriotism isn’t just waving a flag—it’s taking care of those who served.

Hey media, and hell, dems too... Stop saying DOGE is cutting programs and firing people. Congress controls the "purse" Congress controls funding. Congress is run by Republicans. So Republicans are cutting funding and firing everyone. Give them the credit they deserve.

Felon47’s administration just sent a clear message to anti-abortion states: Go ahead and deny women life-saving abortions—we won’t hold you accountable!

🚨EMTALA—was to preempt the ban & require ER physicians to save the life of the mother.

🚨Women will now die!

In 1989, I was principal investigator on. 25k SBIR grant funded by Department of Education to create algorithms for a hand-held scanner for the blind.

I am so thankful to them for this and yes, we created algorithms that worked.
My dad was a public high school teacher for 32 years. Parents & educators know that America's students need more opportunities to succeed.

Dismantling the Department of Education means larger class sizes, less support, and fewer opportunities for students.

Why would any Democrat censure this icon of the party? Please take a look back at what Biden endured. Vote these people out!

We all want our government to be efficient. But Trump & Musk's cuts to education and research will have long-lasting and far-reaching effects. And DOGE's lack of transparency works against that efficiency. www.insidehighered.com/news/governm...
