My wife’s company was denied their EPA grant payout they filed in December for research they already completed and paid for.

From @xeni and a responder, relevant to this thread. Personally, I’m feeling really overwhelmed at the number of thrusts to track. It does seem like a blitzkrieg attack.

That sucks. I’ve been fucked over by the shutdown in 2013. I am not looking forward to this at all.

Forget the half-onion, accounts like this need to have more followers than Herr Drumpf

So, how long before there are new laws to clamp down on this sort of thing?

Our good friend and neighbor is a geologist. He works for a private firm but it’s all EPA driven. He said he’s fucked.

I’m scared. I am not afraid to say it. But I’m scared. It’s only going to get worse.
And the worst part is, people keep telling me “that can’t happen here”. Fascist regimes happen. All the time. The US isn’t exceptional. It can happen here.
Hitler didn’t seize power in a coup. He was elected. It happens over and over. And I can’t stand the “give him a chance” crowd. Or the “well there’s nothing we can do” people or the “you’re over reacting, stop being so scared, we’ll get through this” morons.
If we stand idly by, then America is lost.

I said it before, I’ll say it again;
#Don’t file or pay income taxes this year.
They wont stop and they wont listen unless we hit them where it hurts; the pocket.

According to Ehlers, the new rule means that rather than impacting $600 million in U.S. foreign aid, the global gag rule will affect $9.5 billion. Organizations working on AIDS, malaria, or maternal and child health will have to make sure that none of their programs involves so much as an abortion referral. Geeta Rao Gupta, a senior fellow at the United Nations Foundation who previously served as deputy executive director of UNICEF, gives the example of HIV/AIDS clinics that get U.S. funding to provide antiretrovirals: “If they’re giving advice to women on what to do if they’re pregnant and HIV positive, giving them all the options that exist, they cannot now receive money from the U.S.”

FFS.
See, I don’t think that’s a tRump inspired move.
And that’s why getting rid of him wouldn’t be that productive. Pence would be worse in many ways.
