It is a sad day for the legal industry. Paul Weiss, didn't just bend a knee, it set a new standard for shameful capitulation. This is a stain on the firm, every one of its partners, and the entire legal profession.

The districts: AZ-6, CO-8, IA-3, MI-10, NE-2, PA-7, PA-8.
"If they won't talk to their own voters, then Democrats will."

Very encouraging news about cancer research and mRNA vaccines. An administration that cared about Americans' well-being would be looking for ways to follow up and double down on such efforts. The Trump administration on the other hand seems determined to gut NIH and is hostile to vaccines.
Unbelievable news.
Pancreatic is one of the deadliest cancers.
New paper shows personalized mRNA vaccines can induce durable T cells that attack pancreatic cancer, with 75% of patients cancer free at three years—far, far better than standard of care.

Now watching Trump yell at Zelensky. And Vance talk to him like he's a toddler. This is a shameful moment for United States diplomacy. It will be hard to recover from this.
Occam's Razor: always go back to Trump's 3 core beliefs, as spelled out by Tom Wright in 2016: Trump is anti-trade, anti-alliances, and pro-authoritarianism. All the theater with Macron and Starmer, all the talk of deals--he is not going to give Ukraine security anything.
‘Vance accuses Zelensky of being "disrespectful".
Trump then says the Ukrainian leader is "gambling with World War Three".
The meeting ends with Trump telling Zelensky that he is not being "very thankful" and that "this is going to make great television".’ www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c6...
