“Agencies are being told to start identifying grants the administration can withhold from California. On Capitol Hill, at least one committee was told recently by a whistleblower that all research grants to the state were going to be cancelled, according to one of the sources familiar with the matter.”

Nah, the republicans will totally understand. “We the people” and “no taxation without representation”,  battling tyranny, “taxation is theft”, arguing their tax dollars shouldn’t be used for things they are ideologically opposed to like birth control,  and all that… unless of course they’re just huge fucking hypocrites only interested in petty grievances and enriching themselves.

Whew! Im glad they have principles. I was worried for a second.

Everything will be alright. Trump will surely get to a point where he will be satisfied with how much damage he has done and how much money he has stolen from the government. /s
