The treatment significantly reduced amyloid levels by nearly 45%. Cognitive tests revealed improvements in spatial learning & memory.

A significant step forward.

But how much are they willing to spend on a pipeline to no where, that’s not needed and has no provincial support?

It's been over 9 months since the Palisades and Eaton Fires tore through Los Angeles. We asked for federal support, but we haven’t heard a word from the White House.

Not a single offer.

Is this what leadership looks like? Abandoning the American people when they call for help?

My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

If the Trump administration wants to use military power, it should seek authorization from Congress, says Sen. Rand Paul.

Trump has no intention of leaving office. He intends to run again in 2028 and steal another election. This illegality MUST BE STOPPED NOW. Later is too late.

The shutdown started because Congress didn’t pass the 12 funding bills that keep the country running.
Republicans in the House tied extreme demands to those bills, and refused to fund the government unless Democrats gave in.
