BREAKING: A federal judge appointed by Reagan rules that many of Donald Trump’s cuts to grants for the National Institutes of Health are now “void and illegal” and declares: “Have we fallen so low? Have we no shame?"
And he was just getting warmed up…
"I am hesitant to draw this conclusion, but I have an unflinching obligation to draw it – that this represents racial discrimination,” said District of Massachusetts Judge William Young. “And discrimination against America’s LGBTQ community. That’s what this is. I would be blind not to call it out. My duty is to call it out."
Many of the cuts were aimed at diversity, equity, and inclusion programs which the MAGA movement has condemned as “woke.” In practice, the Trump administration is entrenching discrimination against people of color and the LGBTQ community — red meat for the white nationalists and Christian nationalists who helped elect him.
In total, Young has ordered the NIH to move forward with disbursement on funding for 357 grants that Trump was trying to kill.
Judge Young condemned the administration’s racist agenda and stated that it’s “palpably clear" that the grant terminations were "designed to frustrate, to stop, research that may bear on the health – we’re talking about health here — the health of Americans, of our LGBTQ community.
“That’s appalling,” he added, stating that he’d "never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable."
"I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this ... I ask myself, how can this be?" he said according to Politico’s Kyle Cheney.
Judge Young said that he is Constitutionally protected in speaking out against this discrimination but wondered if he would have stood “against all this” if those protections weren’t in place.
“Would I have said, 'you can’t do this?' You are bearing down on people of color because of their color,” said Young. “The Constitution will not permit that," he said.
“Have we fallen so low? Have we no shame?" he added.
Please retweet and ❤️ to thank Judge Young!

CFB stays red hot, 2-0 there and we've been absolutely crushing the past few months of college football and have carried that into bowl season!
NBA could've been better, could've been worse.
A frustrating miss on Sensabaugh considering the huge minutes he played as expected. In games with 30+ mins in his career, Sensabaugh avg 19 ppg on 14 FG attempts. Even just this season he avg 18.5 pts per 34 minutes which is what he played tonight. Unfortunately just didn't get up his usual shot volume here in this one despite being efficient. Also brutal to see his last 3-PT shot rattle in and out ⤵️
Gobert read just didn't come to fruition as the Timberwolves played terrible as a whole getting crushed by the Nets. Expected them to handle BKN easily as huge favorites which is the game script Gobert thrives in, but didn't go out way.
On to NFL Sunday, should have plays posted at some point early tonight morning 🤝

Merry Christmas everyone, appreciate all the support I've received on this page since I started.
This is a damning piece about a torture prison that is being used by the Trump administration. That’s why the piece was pulled. All Americans deserve to see this story. Shame on Bari Weiss.
Trae Crowder explains BRILLIANTLY to Trump supporters why they shouldn't be spiking the football for voting against their own self-interests.
