Under the House GOP’s budget plan, the lowest-income taxpayers would see a LOSS of $1,125. The richest 0.1 percent of taxpayers, on the other hand, would see a more than $180,000 GAIN. This is trickle down economics on steroids.

Don’t lose hope. Remember, Watergate took over two years to fully unravel from the initial break-in to Nixon’s resignation. Just like then and now, Americans are losing faith in their government. We are documenting every illegal action and will hold this administration and Elon Musk accountable.

For 23 years, NIH grants could be tagged as autism research, helping track and coordinate funding. That mechanism has now quietly expired—no notice, no announcement. A junior faculty member discovered it when submitting her first autism grant. Whether oversight or intent, it’s gone.

The federal government promised it would reimburse farmers for millions in infrastructure investments, but Trump's funding freeze just left farmers on the hook. And if Trump's tariffs go through, farmers will be in even more dire straits. A "new Golden Age" for whom?

DCA staffing on Wednesday was reportedly not normal — with one air traffic controller handling the job of two people. These shortages will only be worsened by federal budget cuts and Trump's hiring freeze. We should be investing in public workers, not attacking them.
