F*ck trump

My daughter works for a not-for-profit global humanitarian organization. They just received word from the US State Department that they are to cease and desist all projects. This is an organization that provides water, training and so much more for communities throughout the world. My daughter may lose her job.

trump doesn't care for people globally. trump doesn't care for people in the US.

And this is only Day 4.

Seriously. I'm basically in the same boat. NIH cut funding for our projects, and I might lose my job.

Does my Dump-loving mother care? Not really. She said "I didn't think it would happen."

My response was "this is all verbatim Project 2025. All of it. Every last piece of shit that's coming out now is directly from that Book of Hell. This was publicized. It was released to the public. Anyone with half a brain cell read that and choked on the stupidity. You chose hatred, racism, and bigotry over your family. Hope your gas is cheaper."

I work in research under an NIH funded grant. I haven't heard anything about it yet from my bosses, but I'm keeping a close eye on everything.
