Just in NIH grants, It looks like beautiful Iowa City, home of the U of Iowa, will lose $71m in funding. That's almost $1k per resident. And that's before all the other cuts to SSA, FDA, etc.
Anyone in Iowa City that can offer more insight?

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother.

I just wanted to say THANK YOU. I can't imagine the shit you are going through right now

Just remember all this if there is a catastrophic intelligence failure under this administration. Because they will *immediately* try to crush dissent and offload blame.
If Pete Hegseth had even a tiny bit of honor and sense of responsibility, then he would hand in his resignation this morning.
I would like to nominate Maxwell Smart for national security advisor.
NPR talked to the families of four men believed to be in El Salvador. None of them had a serious criminal record in the U.S. Only some had been charged with illegal entry. Three
This flew under the radar, but Trump revoked a minimum wage hike for companies that contract with the government.
An estimated 390,000 workers will now see significant pay cuts.
It's not surprising that Trump's populism is fake, but it's hardly ever been more clear.
Does this impact any Republican districts in Maine ?
If so, Ask that representative why he is putting Trump ahead of his district !
Canadians to Maine: No, thanks!

This isn’t a coincidence, it’s a movement. Together we’ve turned frustration into action, silence into strategy, and momentum into real change. We’re just getting started.

A screenshot of a social media post from the account "GET A GRIP" (@docrussjackson ), timestamped 1 day ago, with a blue checkmark. The post quotes a previous post by "Martha Kelly" (@MarthaKelly3 ), which reads: "Under capitalism, it’s normal to let children go hungry, let banks force people out of their homes, let sick people die for lack of access to healthcare. But the idea that billionaires could just be less rich – not poor, not struggling, just less rich, is considered insane." The quoted post is followed by a reply from "techsiren" (@techhsiren
Just less rich. That’s all we’re asking.
AOC, @aoc.bsky.social, making the case for free speech alongside universal healthcare is so KEY for the left, because it's time progressives reclaimed the mantle of fighting for free speech from the faux free speech warriors of the right.
For nearly a century, our nation has upheld the sacred promise of Social Security — that hard work is rewarded with dignity and respect when one retires or becomes disabled.
Donald Trump is breaking that promise.
We can't wait for the damage to set in, it's time to stand up.
Russia kidnaps Ukrainian children and gives them to Russians to erase their heritage and demoralize Ukraine. Over 20,000 so far. And the US just stopped helping track these kids and likely deleted the database of all the research. Pure evil, right maga?
Experts say the verdict has relevance for free speech issues nationwide.
This flew under the radar, but Trump says his administration won't enforce an anti-money laundering law that requires corporations to disclose information on who really owns shell companies to the Treasury.
"Drain the swamp."
If you supported a 10 year old American child with brain cancer, on her way to medical treatment, being deported because her parents are undocumented (but have no criminal records), then you’re a horrific person and I’m not sure how you sleep at night.
Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away.
They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.
Serbia says, “Hey U.S.A., this is how it’s done”!
These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere
The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.
We’re only two months in, & they’re cancelling research into pediatric brain cancer. They’re deporting US kids with brain cancer. They’re putting millions at risk of malaria, TB, & polio.
I for one will never forgive or forget those who said ‘it won’t be that bad’.

BREAKING: Trump Invokes 1798 Wartime Law that Paved the Way for Japanese Internment.
The repugnant law, known as the Alien Enemies Act, will allow Trump to detain and deport noncitizens without due process, writes Zeteo’s new legal contributor @kimwehle.bsky.social, professor of constitutional law:
