Trump's corruption and misuse of our taxpayer dollars is unprecedented in American history. Congress must hold him accountable.

I don’t think everyone realizes how bad things are for US science: For the fiscal year that just ended, the Trump regime withheld $1.4 billion from the National Science Foundation’s research budget, which is about 1/5 of its primary research budget.

National Science Foundation Diverted $1.4 Billion in Science Funds Mandated by Congress (Gift Article)

The move, affecting about one-fifth of the National Science Foundation’s primary research budget, is the latest sign of how the White House is asserting more control over grants.

Scoop: For nearly a year, NSF has struggled to make new grants. Now we know that it will not catch up. In fact, NSF will award just 6,100 new grants—a 30% y/o/y decline, itself down from a previous avg. of 11,000+. In fact, the last time NSF awarded so few grants was in the early '80s.

First Liam Conejo Ramos. Now Liam Tadeo.   How many five-year-old boys need to be taken by ICE before Republicans will admit to the cruelty of this mass deportation campaign? Where is our humanity? How can we justify putting a five-year-old through this?
