This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen.

Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !”

Whenever you hear someone sneer about scientific research that seems useless to them — “they’re studying the spit of lizards?!” — remind them that’s exactly how we got Ozempic.

I would love to see journalists asking every magat: "Why is your loyalty to trump rather than to the Constitution?" And make them explain.

I would really like to know. Few people have ever disgusted me as much as trump, and it is a real mystery to me how anyone can not find him revolting.

The IRS Direct File program is very popular with the American people. It is not, however, popular with companies that file your taxes for a fee.

So I'm sure it's just a coincidence that Marsha Blackburn sided with H&R Block over the American people after taking money from H&R Block's PAC.
