Trump and his American oligarchs are now openly aligning themselves with Putin and his Russian oligarchs.
This Putin-Trump alliance means abandoning our allies, supporting authoritarianism and undermining our democratic traditions.

A sense of foreboding hangs over the National Institutes of Health
There's widespread confusion and fear among scientists and doctors on the sprawling National Institutes of Health campus and at institutions dependent on the agency's funding.

The CDC’s MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) did not come out last week.
The first time in generations.
Hasn’t come out today and I can almost assure you it will not.
Why? Trump wants it reviewed *by a political appointee*
Regardless of your view of that journal, that is censorship.

Here we are, back to neuroimmunology. The choroid plexus, as a key component of the glymphatic system, acts as the “starting point” by generating the cerebrospinal fluid necessary for waste clearance.1/3
