We need clarity on whether The Felon's government spending freeze has actually been rescinded. There are lots of reports on social media today, especially from folks in science fields, that the freeze is still in effect.

I have no doubt it is. I've said before, they respond to public backlash. As they shut down the media, people won't get the truth. We must do this like the old telephone game...person to person..

Apparently, lots of people working in science fields have had their grants cancelled, and they're naturally worried about paying rent, mortgages, etc. I think the 'recision' was just a PR stunt to get the media to move on, meanwhile, the freeze remains in effect. It's been temporary halted by the courts, but it's still going on.

That's interesting..that is another tactic. Flood the zone while they dismantle behind the scenes..what you're saying is exactly that.
