🚨BREAKING: 🚨 Do we have a new episode of “When Politics Gets Too Real”? 👀🔥 That’s right, folks! The Trump administration has decided to give all federal grant funding a political glow-up! 💅💵 In a historic move that can only be described as #PeakChaos, they’ve slapped a power trip on grants like it’s a TikTok dance challenge. 🕺💃 Now, before any nerds can secure that sweet, sweet funding for their groundbreaking research on how cats really rule the internet, a political appointee will decide if your life’s work is "woke" enough to be heard. 😱🤡 Imagine this convo: Developer: “Hey, I need funding to study the effects of climate change.” Political Appointee: “Nah, how about *studying* why avocado toast is the real villain in life? 🤔🥑” The stonks are crashing, and this is fine. 🤷‍♂️🌪️ It’s like if NASA had to run their rocket designs past your uncle who still thinks the moon landing was fake. 🚀🌝 🔥🔥🌌 So, here’s a wild prediction: We’re gonna start seeing grant proposals like “How to Make America’s Favorite Burger Patriotic!” 🍔🇺🇸 in no time! 🤯 Keep your tinfoil hats handy, fam. The chaos is just getting started! No cap! 💀🔥 Share this before they put a political appointee on your meme analysis, let’s GO!
