Folks, be very careful about donating to anybody raising money in Cory Booker's name. There are a lot of questionable people trying to take advantage, and I don't want anybody to get scammed. If you're trying to donate directly to Cory, double-check the "Paid for by" on the landing page.

It's getting a lot of attn today. But even before today most of the country had very little idea of what has happened at NIH or through it the entire ecosystem of biomedical research in the US. Simply put, Musk, Kennedy & Trump exploded a bomb right in the middle of cancer cure research in the US.

Crawford wins in Wisconsin!!!!!!!! Very very big and important victory. And a loss could have been calamitous in coming years for gerrymandering, voting rights, abortion and a lot more. Most expensive judicial election by far in US history. Her opponent campaigned in a MAGA hat. A good day.

Maybe people don't like what Trump and Musk are doing to the country. Maybe people don't like seeing a billionaire shamelessly trying to buy an election. Maybe people just don't like Musk. Whatever the reason, I'm so happy the people on Wisconsin did the right thing.
