This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.

Upsetting news. Especially devastating for students in the program and for speech and debate in Oregon. UO has been an anchor for competitive high school forensics in the state for as long as there has been competitive speech and debate. Many hard at work trying to save the program.

I donât think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make whatâs happening now look like childâs play. And people are disappearing.
