Congress passes a funding bill. The money is appropriated. But under the White House's new 400-page regulatory blueprint, a political appointee can now block that money from reaching its destination if it doesn't "demonstrably advance the president's policy priorities."

That is not a metaphor for executive overreach. That is the literal proposed mechanism.

The rule would prohibit grants to any project that "promotes anti-American values" - undefined - or assists in voter registration, advances DEI, or "denies the biological reality of sex." Political appointees, not subject matter experts, would decide what qualifies as "gold standard science." Researchers would face limits on which foreign labs they can collaborate with and which conferences they can attend.

The National Council of Nonprofits represents more than 30,000 organizations that receive federal grants to deliver child care, health services, housing, and other programs on behalf of the US government. Their senior vice president told the Times that many nonprofits may simply decide it is "not worth the risk" to seek funding.

Think about what that means in concrete terms. A legal aid clinic in Gary, Indiana that helps low-income families navigate housing court. A rural health nonprofit in Morgan County providing mental health services in a county with one psychiatrist. A child care provider in Elkhart running on federal grants. None of them make policy. All of them deliver services Congress already funded. Under this rule, a political appointee in Washington can decide their work doesn't advance the president's priorities and cut them off.

Courts have already blocked multiple versions of this same approach. The administration's own lawyer at the American Public Health Association said this is an attempt to "codify" what courts previously rejected. The regulation is aimed at October. That is before the midterms.

Keep posting this so people don’t forget how truly bad this event was.

Don’t let people gaslight you into thinking it was peaceful and worthy of 1500+ pardons and slush fund payoffs.

Take whatever wife slapper Dana White has to say about men’s mental health, ignore it, then listen to what an actual man like Macho Man Randy Savage says regarding handling male emotions

USFS turned over to a logging CEO, HQ moved to anti-Fed Govt Salt Lake City, all 10 regional offices closed, all research labs shuttered, all the science lost, public lands handed over to corporations for logging, mining, fracking. Our country is being raped, looted, stolen.

[Mike Levin @MikeLevin]

This is absolutely infuriating and completely idiotic.

An estimated 95,000 scientists and researchers have left federal agencies since Trump returned to the White House. These are the people tracking hurricanes, studying pediatric cancer, and modeling the climate tipping points that determine whether we can still prevent catastrophe.

We lost them because this administration defunded their work, shuttered their offices, and made clear that finding out the truth is no longer a government priority.

NASA’s own administrator just said studying climate change isn’t part of NASA’s mission. The agency that first warned Congress about global warming in 1988 now treats that work as a distraction.

Meanwhile, China and Europe are recruiting our scientists, funding their labs, and making long-term bets on the industries of the future while we gut the research infrastructure that took generations to build.

We are surrendering global scientific leadership voluntarily, deliberately, and one resignation letter at a time.
