The Project 2025 architect who promised to put federal employees “in trauma” is spending $15 million of former USAID funding—money that would have gone toward fighting HIV, polio, malaria, and other diseases—to bankroll his security detail. trib.al/TSV3cmb
Maybe Russ Vought Wouldn't Need The Bodyguards If He Spent This $15 Million On Food Instead

"Trump administration plans to break up largest federal climate research center
Russ Vought, director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, said the National Science Foundation 'will be breaking up' the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado.
The Trump administration plans to break up Colorado’s National Center for Atmospheric Research, the largest federal climate research lab.
Russ Vought, director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, announced the plan Tuesday in a statement on X.
'The National Science Foundation will be breaking up the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colorado,' Vought wrote, linking to a story from USA Today, which was first to report on the administration’s effort. 'This facility is one of the largest sources of climate alarmism in the country. A comprehensive review is underway & any vital activities such as weather research will be moved to another entity or location.'
The move would be a major setback for climate research in the United States, at a moment when the United Nations and other world leaders have said time is running out to prevent the most devastating effects of global warming.
The University Corporation for Atmospheric Research, NCAR’s parent organization, said in a statement Tuesday that it was aware of reports on a plan to shut down the center but did not have any information about it.
'We look forward to working with the administration to continue our focus on safeguarding the safety and prosperity of our nation,' Antonio Busalacchi, president of UCAR, said in the statement.
In response to NBC News’ inquiry about the plan for NCAR, a senior White House official took aim at Colorado Gov. Jared Polis, a Democrat.
'Maybe if Colorado had a governor who actually wanted to work with President Trump, his constituents would be better served,' the official said."
The #Trump admin said it was breaking up one of the world’s preeminent #earth & #atmospheric #research institutions over concerns about “#climate alarmism”—a move Democratic ofcls & scientists called an assault on #science & #education.
