If reports of an end to intelligence sharing and Starlink access limits are confirmed, then the Trump admin has started helping Russia’s war effort. This a more harmful act against Ukraine than all the silly Witkoff/Kushner plans/trips put together. The US is trying to force Ukraine to surrender.

Elon's apparent cutting off of Ukraine's Starlink access underscores the dangers of the U.S. contracting with an unstable Nazi. There is no way a deranged civilian (or any civilian) should have that much power over an ostensible American partner.

I’m sick of this tired talking point from Trump and now Darline Graham… “China has already said they want to be the global leader… If we don’t build data centers for 2 years… we are going to be in trouble.” 📌 The US already has 4,978 more data centers than China.

This isn’t just about NIH grants. It’s about whose health gets studied—and whose gets ignored. Defund research on women and minority communities. Weaken the safety net. Politicize which science gets funded. Different policies. Same consequence: the people who already have the least lose the most.
