Any member of Congress who purchased stocks in the last 48 hours should probably disclose that now. I’ve been hearing some interesting chatter on the floor. Disclosure deadline is May 15th. We’re about to learn a few things. It’s time to ban insider trading in Congress.

NASDAQ call volume spiked minutes before the 90 day tariff pause was announced. Not a good look at all.

Terminating unrelated biomedical research grants because of political accusations before any kind of investigation or due process is an obscene authoritarian move that in addition to being unamerican, will weaken America permanently
NIH@NIH

Today #NIH is terminating more than $250 million in funding—including more than 400 grants—to Columbia University following directives from the Trump Administration’s Joint Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism. The cancellations are due to Columbia University’s continued inaction in the face of persistent harassment of Jewish students.

If the federal government can disappear a legal US permanent resident without reason or warrant, then they can disappear US citizens too. Anyone - left, right, or center - who has highlighted the importance of constitutional rights + free speech should be sounding the alarm now.

NEWS: Last night, DHS detained a Palestinian who helped lead Columbia encampment. Agents told him his visa was revoked. He said he had a green card. They were confused—then said that was revoked too. His attorney demanded a warrant. Agents hung up instead.zeteo.com/p/breaking-dhs…

Holy shit. Instead of admitting they were wrong, @DOGE literally changed FPDS data to try to cover their asses. The website now says $8B but you can easily verify that the real number is $8M by cross-referencing with any other source as noted below.
Christopher Johnson@antipothis

@electricfutures Be careful, it looks like they're adjusting data in the background to cover themselves. They've changed this number. Can confirm it's false from other sources.

What Trump actually did… 1. Temporarily caused a stock market crash 2. Forced Canada to spend billions on a problem that doesn’t really exist 3. Permanently damaged the U.S relationship with Canada 4. Radicalized millions of Canadians against the U.S and Trump 1/3

This is absolutely insane. If scientists aren't allowed to use the term "women" or "female" when applying for NSF grants, that basically rules out any human clinical trials of anything. "Disability" is blacklisted too? There goes a lot of medical research.
Rachel Cohen Booth@rcobooth

Per @darbysaxbe, from a program officer at the National Science Foundation, federal grants can now be pulled for containing any of these keywords. Absurd and dangerous

I’m happy to share my main PhD work now published! 🥳🥳🥳 We found that a salient emotional experience can be linked with a memory from days ago, and this linking occurs through co-activity of the two memory representations during a period of rest.
Denise J. Cai, Ph.D.@denisejcai

🌟 Cai Lab @Nature paper alert! In new work led by @mysteriousjoe_, we find that rest periods after learning not only stabilize new memories BUT ALSO integrate new memories with older ones from days past! (1/9) Read it here: nature.com/articles/s4158…

📣 New Cai Lab paper in @CellReports! We show that a stressful experience can produce different types of memories! We also find that the basolateral amygdala (BLA) & ventral hippocampus (vHC) differentially contribute to these memories 🧠 cell.com/cell-reports/f… More ⬇️ (1/6)
