NIH's budget increase is less than $1 million for an institute with a $7 billion budget.
Meanwhile, Trump is requesting a $1.5 TRILLION Pentagon budget.

Not a penny to make life more affordable for American families, but $70 BILLION for ICE to terrorize our communities.
If not for Trump, what's the emoluments clause for? What's impeachment for? What's the 25th Amendment for? What's section 3 of the 14th Amendment for? What are checks and balances for?
The baddies are cherrypicking the Constitution the same way they do the bible: for their own benefit.
A Maine air carrier was forced to stop delivering mail today. USPS owes them $388,000 and hasn't paid since March.
Trump is breaking the Post Office. Rural Maine pays the price. #mepolitics
Pennsylvania's appellate court confirmed that access to abortion is a fundamental right under the Pennsylvania Constitution.
This decision is a win for all Pennsylvanians.
The government shouldn't be making your healthcare decisions - you should.

Virginia, go out and vote YES today.
Fight fire with fire and take on MAGA's power grab.
Did my part.
No surprise here that graduates are seeing the opportunities available to them in the best big city in the nation.
Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them.

National Library Workers Day: Libraries Work Because We Do. April 21, 2026. ALA-APA logo
It's National Library Workers Day, our favorite day of #NationalLibraryWeek where we celebrate the hardworking, dedicated professionals who power possibility in our neighborhoods, our schools, and our places of higher learning.
Thank you, library workers - libraries work because YOU do! #NLWD26
everyone with real American manliness and a basic knowledge of military history knows that serious war efforts have never been derailed by such trifling matters as "communicable diseases"
Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.
WARREN: That's not my question. Are you refusing to tell us if you have investments in vehicles set up by Jeffrey Epstein?
KEVIN WARSH: Those assets will be sold if I'm confirmed
Mike Johnson: "There's always been untoward activity among political figures. Going back to time immemorial there's always been marital infidelity, there's always been despicable behavior."
You deserve to know if airlines are collecting your personal information and using it in any way to set prices.
@gallego.senate.gov and I are demanding answers.
Nothing has killed more soldiers in the history of humanity than disease. While worst is a more complicated question Hegseth is absolutely the dumbest secretary of defense the United States has ever had. bsky.app/profile/ones...

Has it been good when this happened in the past
Men: don't be sociopaths.
Thanks.
JUST IN: Judge Amit Mehta (Obama/DC) opens door to deposition of Trump in #Jan6 civil lawsuits. Discovery against Trump on merits of cases could begin in May. Earlier: www.politico.com/news/2026/03...
Excited to share some good news for Illinois families — we’ve reached over 100,000 children in our state receiving books from Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.
Let’s keep reading.
a red toy poodle is sitting in front of a dark leather sofa, his chin tilted slightly up. his snout fur is so fluffy it’s completely blocking his eyes. underneath his little black nose, his mouth is open just enough to show off the tip of his tongue and four almost identical white teeth, like posts in a picket fence.
This is Nimo. He's not sure why everyone's obsessed with his smile. Might have something to do with his teeth, but he's not sure. 13/10 (IG: nyooochan)
Abortion opponents keep neglecting to vet the plaintiffs behind their abortion-pill lawsuits. And the cases keep blowing up in their faces.
I was wondering why Amazon recently started notifying users that products were available at a better prices elsewhere.

She is awful and should be fired but man that is three women out of the Cabinet and not a single guy
me, fiasco, a fluffy grey tabby sitting on the top level of a carpet cat tree, looking cool and smart
Wat if Fiasco had... new fancy author photo...
The fact that Karen Bass dropped her “climate plan” for Los Angeles days before she reaffirmed her commitment to killing local transit oriented development is a sick joke.
92 out of 102.
That’s how many Illinois counties have zero in-person abortion clinics, leaving 4.9M people without local care.
