Great to work with Heart Cells Foundation & Prof Anthony Mathur of St Bart’s on this extraordinary story of how stem cells can be extracted from the hip, infused into the heart and regenerate heart muscle for heart failure patients. Thanks to all @thetimes.com

She says it's both safe to fly but the system is run by unqualified people. Also she says "tens of millions" of Americans fly per day. It's under 3 million.
Is it too much to ask to have a White House press secretary who isn't an obvious moron?
PETER DOOCY: Given DEI hires, it's not safe to fly commercially, is it?

LEAVITT: The president believes it is still indeed safe. With that said ...

I just wanted to note for the record that we have a decorated Iraq war veteran who flew combat missions in a Blackhawk as sitting member of Congress! Who also happens to be a woman! And if you don’t know who Tammy Duckworth is, you’re in for a treat (complimentary).
