and destroy our health and scientific research and knowledge etc.

But they wanna basically let the old, infirm, etc die off... it's really evil.

It is frightening.

Some people don't get it. Musk has probably never had a major illness or a real brush with death. Such an experience changes you. Some people think that they are invulnerable or immortal. It is just not true. If you live long enough, you will likely suffer some sort of malady. Only a few people get through their lives without a major illness or medical threat to their lives.

Anyway, with Musk he may one day find out. All the money in the world won't matter if you get a cancer for which there is no current treatment or cure. Musk is big into rockets and tech, but he apparently knows nothing about biomedicine and the government and university complex that keeps that sector of the economy moving.

Private biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies will be diminished also, as much basic biomedical research is either done by the NIH or is funded by them at universities and hospitals. Private companies build on this basic research and will be much more limited without the basic science that NIH funds. It is a bad situation all around.

Babies and little kids are very vulnerable. So he wants more babies so they can die before age 5

Of course you would. Nothing they do is intended to help us.

Even more so now.

Filling the cabinet with the exact opposite of the types of people that should be there? Obvious.

Removing any knowledgeable staff from agencies/departments that could help keep the government functioning? Obvious.

Purging the top brass of the US military so that the incompetents and commissars can run the show? Yet again, obvious.

but then, not at all. So hard to make sense of this county with so many versions of reality.

... trying to plot their way out of very lengthy prison terms. It shouldn't be too tough if your lawyer is in the next cell.

I doubt that this has gotten any traction in MAGAtville since I can’t imagine that FOX is covering it. I also don’t know if scientific research is important to these people. But even if it isn’t, these kinds of cuts highlight the sheer cruelty of what TSF and DOGE are doing. This is as bad or worse than kicking Grandma out of the nursing home.

I wish that we would state bluntly that TSF is TRYING TO KILL US and DESTROY THE COUNTRY. I hate to sound like a National Enquirer headline, but this sort of rhetoric might actually get people’s attention when nothing else will. Republicans wouldn’t hesitate to say this, especially if it wasn’t true.

As well as independent media like Meidas Touch Network, and progressive social media like BlueSky, etc. Especially if they all coordinated with each other. Let’s hope they see your post, DET, and realize what you already figured out.

since Trump didn't like their work during and after the last pandemic to save American lives. The pro-life party wants lots of deaths.

I can easily imagine the tirade inside the Oval Office or wherever he parks his sorry ass these days. Hurricane donald. Blowing again. Or maybe it should be "Blowing it again."

To quote it--

"It will take a determined, smart, relentless and implacable counterattack to begin to undo the damage."

That is right on. We need an implacable counterattack. Democracy and freedom are under attack, as well as our health and national prosperity.

I'm sure there are lots of countries that would like to take America's top scientists.

Let the sick and the weak die off so government needs less money to assist them and therefore needing less revenue - corp taxes go down.

I don't know what's worse--the stupidity or the callousness. With Agent Orange there's always the petty vindictiveness.

But all of this, the destruction of institutions, people and knowledge?

It's just flat-out evil.
