Genetic material shed by tumors can be detected in the bloodstream three years before cancer diagnosis, according to a study led by investigators at Johns Hopkins University.
That study was made possible with federal funding. Now, many studies like this are canceled. hub.jhu.edu/2025/06/04/...

Cancers can be detected in bloodstream three years prior to diagnosis
Detection of cancer before a clinical diagnosis could give patients and caregivers more time for intervention and may lead to better outcomes because tumors are more likely to be curable

New posters are going up across D.C. today.
MAGA isn't simply a political movement.
It's a cultural project aimed at transforming the American spirit—a rebellious and anti-authority spirit—into one that celebrates autocracy and oppression.
They're basically trying to turn America into North Korea

If demagogues can whip up belligerence toward a country such as Canada -- a famously humane liberal democracy -- imagine what else they can do. The power of demagogues is an unnerving thing. And the receptivity of people to demagoguery, an old, sad story.

Americans don’t like being one of the bad guys. And the great postliberal project to convince them that the bad guys are good and the good guys are actually bad has failed miserably—at least when it comes to a supervillain like Putin, Nick Catoggio writes:
